Where to eat in Myrtle Beach after golf: group dinners, raw bars and 19th holes

Where to eat in Myrtle Beach on a golf trip depends on which end of the Grand Strand you sleep on. North of town, Barefoot Landing's waterfront restaurants are the default; in the middle, Restaurant Row and Broadway at the Beach; on the South Strand, the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk and Pawleys Island. Several clubhouse grills deserve lunch too.

Below are the after-golf picks by area, the best spots for big groups, and the 19th holes. Venues were mapped from OpenStreetMap in November 2026 and not re-checked for hours or prices; Grand Strand restaurants turn over often, so confirm before you go.

Where to eat in Myrtle Beach, by area

North Myrtle Beach and Barefoot Landing

Barefoot Landing sits on the Intracoastal Waterway off US 17, next to the Barefoot Resort villas and its Love, Fazio, Norman and Dye courses.

Greg Norman's Australian Grille at 4930 US 17 South is the North Strand's classic golf-group dinner: steaks and seafood, a bar and a waterway patio. Flying Fish at 4744 US 17 South is a casual, roomy seafood restaurant and market, easy for big groups. LandShark Bar & Grill, the Margaritaville-brand spot, does burgers, drinks and live music. Crooked Hammock Brewery is also at Barefoot Landing.

Between Barefoot and North Myrtle Beach, Rockefellers Raw Bar at 3613 US 17 South is the local raw bar, oysters and beer rather than a big sit-down dinner. Rioz Brazilian Steakhouse also has a second location on US 17 in North Myrtle Beach. Our North Myrtle Beach golf guide covers the courses nearby.

Restaurant Row and North Kings Highway

Thoroughbreds Chophouse and Seafood Grille, at 9706 N Kings Hwy, is the long-running upscale steak and seafood restaurant on Restaurant Row, the splurge for groups based north of downtown. Nearby, The Original Benjamin's Calabash Buffet is a huge Calabash-style seafood buffet that handles large groups without the reservations hassle. Liberty Tap Room, at 7651 N Kings Hwy, brews its own beer and has sports on TV and a big menu; it is popular with golf groups.

Downtown and Broadway at the Beach

Sea Captain's House is an oceanfront seafood restaurant in an old beach house on North Ocean Boulevard, a Myrtle Beach institution; expect waits in season. Pier 14, at 1306 N Ocean Blvd on the 14th Avenue pier, has an outdoor deck over the surf a short walk from the SkyWheel.

At Broadway at the Beach, Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville is big, loud and easy for large groups, and Rioz Brazilian Steakhouse at 2920 Hollywood Drive is all-you-can-eat churrascaria. The Hampton Inn Broadway at the Beach is walking distance from both.

South of town, Tupelo Honey at The Market Common is close to MYR and the south-side courses.

The South Strand: Surfside, the MarshWalk and Pawleys

Crabby Mike's Calabash Seafood on US 17 in Surfside Beach is a seafood buffet, quantity over finesse, for a hungry group.

The Murrells Inlet MarshWalk is a half-mile boardwalk of seafood restaurants and bars over the inlet marsh. Drunken Jack's is one of its long-standing dinner spots, Wicked Tuna serves seafood and sushi on a big waterfront deck, and Dead Dog Saloon is the best-known party bar, with live music. The Hampton Inn Murrells Inlet is close. See our Murrells Inlet golf guide.

At the south end of Murrells Inlet, Hot Fish Club at 4911 US 17 Business has a waterfront restaurant and gazebo bar handy for the Waccamaw Neck courses. Gulfstream Cafe sits at the tip of Garden City Beach on the inlet, looking across to Huntington Beach State Park.

In Pawleys Island, Frank's and Frank's Outback on US 17 pairs an indoor dining room with a garden-patio Outback. It is the South Strand's splurge dinner, near Caledonia, True Blue and Pawleys Plantation. Our Pawleys Island golf guide covers that base.

Inland: Conway

For groups playing the inland courses, Rivertown Bistro at 1111 3rd Avenue in downtown Conway, near the Riverwalk, is a break from beach-strip dining. Our Carolina Forest and Conway golf guide covers that corridor.
