Cosmo’s Pizza Corolla Light

Since opening its doors in 2004, Cosmo’s Pizza has become a beloved fixture of the Outer Banks, tucked inside the Light Town Center at 1159 Austin Street, Suite 110A. Owner‑operator Matthew Broughton, a lifelong Outer Banker and Ohio University graduate, still follows the old‑world family recipes his Italian grandmother taught him, hand‑stretching dough each morning and topping each pie with fresh mozzarella, pepperoni, and locally sourced vegetables. The menu features classic New York‑style slices, hearty deep‑dish options, and a dedicated gluten‑free line for sensitive diners. A full bar showcases a rotating selection of craft beers from regional breweries, alongside domestic favorites, making it a popular stop for both families and groups of friends. Diners can enjoy their meals inside the bright, casual dining room or on the spacious outdoor patio, which is perfect for sunset views over the nearby beaches. Seasonal hours are posted on the website, typically 11:00 am–9:00 pm daily, and the price range sits comfortably between $10 and $20 per pizza. Cosmo’s also rolls out a fresh drink menu each summer, featuring house‑made lemonades and iced teas. With a kid‑friendly atmosphere, free Wi‑Fi, and a reputation for quick, friendly service, the pizzeria is an ideal pit‑stop for tourists exploring Corolla or locals looking for a reliable slice. Reservations can be made by calling 252‑453‑4666 or through the online contact form.
