Food in Myrtle Beach Area

We are heading to Myrtle Beach for the first time in April--if anyone can recommend good eats it would be appreciated.

Best--Jeremy
  • You just have to go to Calabash, NC and get a taste of the ultimate seafood.
    Don't get dismayed at the long line at the Seafood Hut. it moves sort of fast. Good time to chat with fellow dinners. Learn how they found the Hut. When full, it sits 60 dinners.
    Can't wait....Then go to the waterfront and eat at Captain Nance's.
  • What part of Myrtle Beach? How far do you want to drive? What type of food?

    With that said, we normally stay in the south side of Myrtle Beach near Surfside. We prefer Ocean Lakes, but have stayed at Lakewood next door to it as well. We normally eat on that side of town. In the last couple of years we have found and fallen in love with Bubba's Fish Shack. Its across the street from the beach just a mile or so south of Ocean Lakes. It is great food and very inexpensive. Also down in the Surfside area, we tried Ultimate California Pizza which is owned by the same company that owns Bubba's. The pizza was very good. If you don't mind spending a little money on seafood, our next favorite is Drunken Jacks's in Murrels Inlet.

    we stay away from the buffets. First of all, we don't normally eat at buffets. We don't like fighting for our food, which is what you about do in MB. Plus they tend to be higher priced than the places we mentioned per person. I guess if we ate a lot, then it might be worth it, but we find the plate sizes at the other places are more than enough. Sometimes too much.

    There are some good places at Broadway at the Beach as well. If you have any specific questions, feel free to PM me.
