Yesterday, I visited Rudder’s for their opening day of the season. We are frequent customers to this establishment and always enjoy their hospitality, fresh made to order food and outdoor eating area. Customers are more than welcome to bring their dog on a leash. They have ample amount of seating in the sun or shade. There is a gift shop located inside the cafe as well as outside there is a separate building on the property with really cool and creative items to purchase. Food wise you can never go wrong. Their prices are a bit higher than you would expect for a wrap or sandwich but it’s locally owned not a franchise and totally beats what would be a comparable Panera out of the league. Rudder’s always has a special deviled egg in their glass case which is always one of our favorites to purchase with every meal. Desserts from brownies, cookies, muffins and other vegan options for customers as well. I ordered the Cali wrap (turkey, avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, sprouts with a pistachio spread on a wheat wrap) which was amazing. I would have loved extra pistachio spread because it was soo good. The best part of all, you can order alcohol here. They have a number of spritzers, wine in cans and always of course non alcoholic beverages available to purchase with your meal. You can place order for dine in or carry out. Who doesn’t like to have lunch with their pets on a patio!? Great visit for the start of the season.

Excellent Vegan & Vegetarian options! All made fresh and served in a delightful nautical atmosphere. Outside seating is ” dog friendly” and there are many cute gifts you can purchase in the shop!

Great breakfast and lunch on top of service. Very nice place to sit inside and out. Ingredients are fresh and individually prepared. Meat was cut after we placed our order. Not many places do this any more. Worth the wait even though we were quickly served This is one of our new go to places even though they have been here for 20 years!

Wife and I stopped in for lunch while visiting Catawba Island. We were surprized at the fun and colorful motif and decore. Also amazed with the numerous options of gourmet sandwiches, home made soups, and salads. But what really stood out was the warmth and sincerity of the wait staff. It was refreshing to see. I had the rubin sandwich and my wife had the chicken salad with a cup of tomato mushroom soup. Both were fresh and tasty. Only regret is that we couldn’t try more of the menu. I really wanted to try the Chicago hot dog but maybe next time. We will certainly return on our next trip to the area and highly recommend.

Highly recommend Rudders. Great coffee and sandwiches, they also have live music on weekends. The outdoor patio is very nice and neat knick knacks in the store. They also have a separate gift shop with nice stuff.
