Best Casual Restaurants for a Beach Day Meal

A day at the beach calls for good food, but that doesn’t mean you need to get dressed up or spend hours at a restaurant. When you’re staying in Myrtle Beach, there are plenty of casual spots where you can grab a burger, seafood, pizza, or a refreshing drink and get right back to enjoying your beach day.

 

If you’re staying at The Breakers Resort, you’re especially close to several convenient dining options, including restaurants within walking distance or just a short drive away.

Grab a Bite Without Leaving the Resort

One of the easiest ways to keep your beach day going is to stay close to home. The Rusty Reel at The Breakers offers casual oceanfront dining right on the lobby level of the Palms building. It’s a convenient choice when you want lunch, dinner, drinks, and an oceanfront atmosphere without going far.

 

For something quick and sweet, you can also stop by Ben & Jerry’s or grab a pizza from Jaybo’s Pizzeria. And if you’re starting your beach day early, Papa’s serves breakfast daily, making it easy to fuel up before heading out to the sand.

Grab a Burger Near the Beach

If you’re ready to venture just beyond the resort, River City Cafe is a popular choice for burgers and casual American fare. Its laid-back atmosphere fits right in with a day spent by the ocean, making it an easy place to stop after a morning on the beach.

 

Another nearby option is Dirty Don’s Oyster Bar & Grill, where you can find seafood, oysters, burgers, wings, sandwiches, and other favorites. With plenty of choices on the menu, it’s a convenient spot when everyone in your group is looking for something different.

Enjoy Seafood With an Ocean View

For a classic Myrtle Beach dining experience, Bummz Beach Cafe offers a relaxed beach bar atmosphere with outdoor seating, casual food, and ocean views. It’s the kind of place where you can take a break from the beach while still feeling like you’re right in the middle of your vacation.

 

If you want to take your meal out over the water, Pier 14 Seafood Restaurant, Gift Shop, and Fishing Pier offers seafood, drinks, and ocean views right along the pier. After your meal, you can spend some time taking in the scenery or browsing the gift shop before continuing your day.

Keep It Easy With Pizza and Boardwalk Favorites

Sometimes a beach day calls for pizza, and Hot Tomato is a great option for New York-style pizza and other Italian favorites. It’s an easy choice for groups looking for something familiar and filling before heading back toward the beach.

When you’re ready to explore the Boardwalk, LandShark Bar & Grill is another casual option near the SkyWheel. Grab a meal or drink and then continue exploring the Boardwalk, checking out the attractions, shops, and ocean views along the way.
