Food scene

Farm to table restaurant. The chef takes a creative approach, it has a novel bar, and it's a clean modern dining environment. Not your fried, died and laid-to-the-side kind of food.

Close to your location in Pier Village. Classic Southern with a twist. Good indoor and outdoor dining experience.

Good breakfast spot. Get there earlier because it packs up after 9 AM. Also a good spot for lunch.

The “speak easy” gets busier as the night goes on. It’s a fun and funky place. Go.

Yep-a brewery where the whole fam feels at home. Lots of out doors creature comforts even with corn hole and stuff for the littles! More dogs and prams than laptops. Good vibe on the weekend. ...and the beers are good too. Make sure to try their Silver Bluff IPA - it’s good.

Something for everyone. Not a kid friendly place, but if you and your “significant other” want more than a down-home barbecue joint, this here’s about as much as the Golden Isles is able to give up that is worthy to compete with an establishment in mid-town ATL. Only open certain days of the week. Call for their schedule.

Here’s a challenge...go to the Mainland (that world to the west of the Causeway), sit marsh side and look out on Saint Simons Island! This is a nice place with the same (good) food that you’ll spend twice as much for on the Island - in an Island restaurant that has no view to speak of. Experience Brunswick!

Love this place! Have probably done 3 Yelp reviews since discovering this little gem. There’s one in Brunswick, but skip it - this one is the real deal - fresh seafood with regional Mexican provenance and specialities prepared to-a-tee!!

Iconic pizza joint. As a Yankee, I very much appreciate a place that smells like oregano.

On the pricy side. It’s a date night or special occasion place - your kids will be bored. Go early and order off the bar menu and have a drink in the bar. Or….go late - with a reservation - and have a great meal.

Skip Southern Soul and go here. It’s a small “hole in the wall” that caters to locals. Great BBQ and a friendly atmosphere.
