Promise’ Land Market ( Dining / Pubs / Bars ). Located at 909-B Arendell Street. Promise Land Market opened in 2013 in Downtown Morehead City near the historic Promise Land district named by folks who relocated there following a hurricane that devasted the area. In order to bring fine wine, craft beer, and artisanal cheese plates to Morehead City, David Quinn and Gerhardt Schnibben, local friends, worked to create a rustic, coastal vibe with historic roots. Using reclaimed wood from David's farm, flooring from the Carteret Lanes Bowling alley, the Old Morehead Mansion planks, and lots of vintage photos, Promise Land has a retro, cozy vibe that celebrates the past while embracing modern values of locally sourced, small production, North Carolina food, wine, and cocktails as much as possible.
