Venter's Grill is another really good spot.

Finelli's and Starlight Cafe are good but are on the pricier side. It just depends on what you're looking for...

Heading up there tonight myself...Goooooo Pirates!!!
I believe Venter's Grill has been gone since Hurricane Floyd

I did read your post... noted... I was also there in '87 and let me just say it was not just ECU fans that misbehaved, although there were plenty that were out of line. We have paid the price for that over the last 20 years.

I have also attended several ECU games in C-F since that time and have experienced some very rude NCSU fans. Also, it should be noted that C-F has had its share of issues that were not ECU related, such as pre-game shootings and NCSU fans/ students pissing in the stands.

You're right about the shooting (just one), but you'll never convince me wolf-pack fans would **** in the stands.

The "Coastal NC" forum would actually have been the one for this question--though it seems you've gotten plenty of answers here anyway.

I'm sure you know that restaurants in college towns on home game days are madhouses, though. I can't say I'd want to eat in a restaurant full of drunk college fans, right after a game!

The Dixie Queen in Winterville is a local seafood spot. It's just a few miles south of Greenville off highway11.
