Grand Strand Eats is a free map of local restaurants along South Carolina's Grand Strand, from Little River and North Myrtle Beach down through Myrtle Beach, Surfside, Garden City, Murrells Inlet and Pawleys Island. It is an independent site run by Christy, and it is not connected to any restaurant, tourism board or chamber of commerce.
National chains are easy to find. The independent seafood shacks, pancake houses, breweries and marsh-side grills are harder to sort through when you're visiting, or even when you live here. So the map leaves chains out and keeps the focus on places that are only on the Grand Strand.
About 120 spots were picked and written up by hand. The rest come from OpenStreetMap, a free map that anyone can edit. For those, the price level and vibe are often a best guess from the type of food until someone checks them. We check listings against each restaurant's own website and Facebook page a few at a time, and fix hours, prices and addresses when they change.
Restaurants open, close and change hours all the time, especially between seasons. Please call ahead or check the restaurant's site before you go.
Every listing is free. Spots marked ⭐ Featured may be paid placements, and that label is always shown. Some links to tours, activities and hotels are affiliate links through GetYourGuide and Stay22: if you book through them, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. Paid placement never changes what we write about a restaurant.
