I loved this place and I am so sorry to see it has closed. I thought the food was really good. Yes, the service wasn't the best at times, but the food made up for it. The fried shrimp was always cooked to perfection. Even the brisket was good. I'm really going to miss it, and am so disappointed it closed.

We were thrilled to find the Stingray Cafe open at 4:30 on a Monday afternoon. I've been eating there when visiting New Bern for years! Found out they are open until 6pm. We were the only diners. They did a bit of take out business taking orders over the phone. Although we were told they were experiencing a staff shortage, the hostess/server/cashier did a great job. Our shrimp burger and soft shell crabs were delicious. Good iced tea too. The place is clean, safe, cute with fishing decor, and has convenient street parking. Love the seafood market next door with the kitchen in between. Fresh fish at very reasonable prices. I would highly recommend and will return again and again.

Wonderful fresh seafood. Restaurant is next to a seafood grocery and they are just off the water, so you know it is fresh. Pepsi products. Had the shrimp salad with steamed shrimp (they also offer fried). Very refreshing on a hot summer day!

Stumbled upon this joint when I first visited New Bern and I really liked their prices on seafood so I stopped and got the trout plate. I was shocked to receive a whole fish freshly filleted with a great house made potato salad. Needless to say I came back here a couple of times but nothing beats the trout plate here. Nice friendly service and staff, love seeing the fish you are about to eat at the fresh market next door.
