Seaside Bar and Grill
Seaside Bar & Grill has quickly become our favorite place on Wednesday nights...wing and shrimp night! Their wings are great, with many options and sauces and the shrimp is made your way (grilled, boiled, fried, blackened) by the half-pound or pound, There is usually music on the patio and the staff feel like family because they are! But don't just consider it on Wednesdays, they partner with local fishermen and farmers to create amazing locally sourced dishes everyday they are open. Vist their webiste

Place to eat in Beaufort
Saltus Bar and Grill
Tabbed as an Urban Seafood Grill, we love the hip atmosphere and the great chef-prepared food. The Sushi is fantastic as are the low-country-based entrees and apps. We suggest you make a reservation. Visit their website. 802 Bay St. ・ Waterfront Dining in Beaufort. (843) 379-3474.
Old Bull Tavern
Absolutely the best place to have a drink in Beaufort. From the Tequila and habenero based Purgatory to the gin and cucumber based London Calling, the combinations are amazing and the "properly dressed" bartenders are a joy to watch. The food is fantastic, but you'll need a reservation unless you sit at the bar. Visit their website.
Lost Local
This is a great craft beer and wine bar with a fantastic selection of eclectic tacos that can be ordered a la carte. From the Mac and Cheese chicken taco to the Down South Gullah taco, this is a comfortable place to have a snack, lunch or super casual dinner. 705 Bay Street, Beaufort, South Carolina 29902 (843) 379-3838
Breakwater Grill
They call it southern cuisine with a world-wide flair. We call it yummy. The soft-shell crab is amazing when its in season. This is another one that we suggest reservations in advance. Visit their website.
Blackstone's Cafe
This is our favorite place to eat breakfast if we are in Beaufort and want a good ol fashioned breakfast. Nothing fancy, except the great food and great service. You'll see lots of regulars in here, so you know its consistently good. Visit their website.
Shellring Brewery
OK, just to set the record straight, we live in what has become known as Beer City USA with the eastcoast home of Sierra Nevada, Oskar Blues, New Belgium and over 50 other local breweries, but we make sure to visit Shellring in Port Royal on every visit. The beer is really good but the atmosphere is pure low-country awesome. Visit their website. As an asside, their are better options than the seafood restaurant next door, although their fried seafood is just fine.
