F O O D I got the Mahi Tacos and they were delicious! Definitely recommend if you like Mahi Mahi. S E R V I C E Our waitress was on it. She was very attentive and got us our food and drinks quickly! A T M O S P H E R E The atmosphere is beautiful. We sat outside on the area that opens up to the water and it was such a gorgeous day in Georgetown! The wind was blowing which made it the perfect temperature and not too hot! read more

Here's a fun, original review you can post for Buzz's Roost: If you're driving from Charleston to Myrtle Beach after work, do yourself a favor and skip the predictable Taco Bell drive-thru. Instead, take a scenic detour to Georgetown's charming Front Street and Riverwalk, where dinner feels like the start of a mini vacation. We pulled into Buzz's Roost around 8 p.m. on a cool, damp Friday night in May, and the New England clam chowder was exactly what the doctor ordered. Warm, creamy, and comforting, it melted away the stress of the workweek with the very first spoonful. Our blackened fresh fish sandwiches were outstanding. The fish was perfectly cooked, and the seasoning had just the right kick to remind you that simple food can still be unforgettable. The atmosphere is one of my favorite parts. With its exposed brick interior and waterfront setting, Buzz's Roost feels like a cozy warehouse transformed into a laid-back riverfront hangout. Friendly service made us feel right at home, and the skeeball and foosball tables were tempting enough that we're already planning a return visit. I can easily picture coming back on a warm summer evening--or even during football season--to soak in the Riverwalk views, enjoy a great meal, and unwind. They also brew their own beer, which is a nice touch. My only wish is that they offered a non-alcoholic beer on draft for those of us making the road trip and keeping it light. Buzz's Roost is more than just a restaurant stop--it's a reminder that sometimes the best part of the journey is pulling over and discovering a place you can't wait to revisit. read more

Great back deck along the water. We went in to watch the Kentucky Derby- plenty of seats and great service. Bartender went out of her way to make a mint julep that was extra tasty. read more

Today I was driving from Jacksonville to Myrtle Beach and decided to stop in Georgetown for lunch. I parked my car on Front Street and walked along the water on the boardwalk. This place looked the most full so I figured it must be pretty good. My instincts were right. All of the tables outside were taken, but there were a few empty seats at the bar. The menu has about a dozen appetizers, about ten handhelds, a few salads, a few tacos, and about ten other dishes. I opted for the fried shrimp basket and it was an excellent choice. There were ten delicious fried shrimp, as well as fries and cole slaw. Everything tasted great. Service was pretty quick. The outdoor dining was full the whole time I was there. So glad I chose this place. The views of the water were also nice. read more

Don't eat here. THERE WAS HAIR IN MY FOOD. Dirtiest restaurant on the planet--the bathrooms, floors throughout entire restaurant, tables, KITCHEN--nothing has been cleaned for a VERY long time. The waitress kept disappearing. The family next to us finally stopped eating their meal because they had no refills and needed water. They finally just asked for to go boxes. We waited forever for our check. Went to the bathroom and the entire wait staff were on their phones hanging out in the kitchen. The food was meh. The burger was a pre-shaped frozen burger, not even home made. So disappointing as eating out isn't cheap! Avoid this place. read more

Quick pit stop May 31st. Walking the water way area... it was only music within the three blocks. Fun live artist, space was available.. Had a couple drinks and then bounced. Thanks for the great ambiance. Granted this place (or maybe the entire state) gets very Amish on Sundays... we all appreciated the time and energy. Thanks! read more

Five people went for lunch. Two of us ate mahi tacos. They were yummy. One had a burger. It was so-so. The other ate a crab cake sandwich. And the last person had a fish sandwich. All food was good but not outstanding. We ate inside do we would be able to talk. Outside on deck had loud music and we would not be able to chat. Oh I forgot we had crab balls for appetizer. They were really good. We are tourists so not sure we will be back cuz we live out of town. We did have a hard time finding waitress to get more drinks and condiments. read more

The bartenders at Buzz's Roost were nothing but rude and unprofessional. My boyfriend ordered me a skinny margarita at the bar on the right side, and the bartender said they didn't have that but could make it with half sour mix and half lime juice instead. Later, we went to the bar on the left, and the bartender named Mrs. Jordan immediately had an attitude while he was trying to explain the drink another bartender had already made. She said, "I'm gonna have to take these people's orders if you don't know what you want." It only got worse from there. When we ordered food, she said, "I'm not gonna walk around with your food all night," and then when we went to grab it, she tried telling us, "That is not yours." The entire experience was trashy, rude, and completely unprofessional. Easily some of the most disrespectful service I've ever experienced at a bar. read more

Great location and the food and drinks were good... They have a nice outdoor patio and it was great to be out there on such a nice day!

Excellent server Kaylyn made our day with her smile and hospitality. Talk about Southern Charm! Our lunch of Blacked Shrimp Tacos and Mahi Mahi Sandwich was so good thought the alligator might want me to share. Our beverages was the Rooster Red from Southern Hopps and a Snafu Sour. Outside deck area was the perfect ambiance. read more

We stop in a few guys on bikes. I had chicken fingers with fries. Typical bar food. Didn't taste bad. Not to expensive. It was kind of busy so food service was slow. Waitress was on point and nice read more

Came here with zero lay of the land. Ms Kamron and Mr Ryan were the most absolute best bartenders and local guides anyone could ask for. I highly recommend this place as an outsider from another state this place feels like home with them behind the bar if I could give more stars I would. read more

Five stars for the great customer service . We were running behind for an event and informed the bartender and asked if our food would be ready by a certain time. The bartender said it was no problem and so we placed our order. The food came out quickly and our bartender made sure that we left on time to make it to our event. read more

Went here on Wednesday March 12 2025 with my parents, uncle, and cousins. it was a little family reunion. We decided on this place because it was a halfway- then some from Charleston, and maybe 45 minutes for us. Anyways, since this is town, we found a parking spot right outside the place across the street. This place is on the water, and has indoor and outdoor seating. We decided to eat indoors, although i kept feeling chilly while inside. While we were waiting for the rest of our party, we decided to party at the bar. Must say that they really have cool drinks, but with the bartender we just ordered 3 cherry vodkas with sprite/7up. Glad to see a place have cherry vodka! and it was enjoyable. We also ordered boneless wings teriyaki, and nachos, in which both were good. Finally, the rest of our party came, and we were sat at a table inside. In total, we were a party of 8. At the table, we started with waters, 2 people got shirley temples. We also started with an appetizers of fried pickle and Fried Calamari. Must say, the fried pickles were really good, it was my first time trying them. Server greeted us with a smile and took great care of us. For entrees, i ordered the fried flounder with sweet potato fries, someone got a french dip burger, a cobb salad, chicken ranch wrap, wings, and a chicken fingers with fries. I definetely enjoyed my fish sandwich as it was something different. We all pretty much ate our food before we were full. We paid the check with a credit card and left a cash tip. Would definitely come again for lunch or something! enjoyed it! Oh, and the restrooms were easy to find and clean. read more

An hour or two to get out of the rain and enjoy some beers with dinner. I managed to find the only table in the place that had a power outlet - there is a power strip hanging down from the ceiling next to the jukebox. So there you go. A good variety of beers on tap but the canned Kolsch caught my eye. I also enjoyed an order of the chicken bites in hot sauce which turned out to be actually hot and spicy. That was nice. Good service from three waiters as I was here long enough that the turned over from lunch to dinner. I'd return here. [Review 19424 overall - 998 in South Carolina - 394 of 2023.] read more

We came here on a Friday night for dinner. The pulled pork tacos were great, as was the crab cake sandwich. A cool spot for live music on the patio out back -- the band that night was terrific! Thanks to Bonnie for the great service! read more

Absolutely excellent! The food was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with real care. Every dish was high quality, beautifully presented, and exceeded expectations. You can truly taste the attention to detail and commitment to excellence. read more

Got here when they opened and have to say the food was the best we've had so far in the area. Had a blackened fish sandwich and fish tacos. Both were delicious. Great outdoor seating and awesome ambiance. Waitress was wonderful and food came quickly. Only downside was the omnipresent plastic beer glasses....glass people! Don't need more plastic waste. Great place though! read more

We did not go for the food, so I can't speak to quality of that. Drinks were ok; bartenders nice but hard to get their attention (not too busy) to re-order. When we did order, we had to ask again, bc the one guy totally forgot. Not sure what was going on with him? Band was really good. Bar crowd is pretty much what you expect for a small town. read more

Took a spontaneous day trip from North Myrtle Beach to Georgetown, going to the Historic District of Front Street, assuming that would be THE area to find bars and restaurants. Bingo! Started with a couple of beers at the local brewery, Winyah Bay Brewing Company, tucked away at 932 B Front Street. Fun crowd, great bartender, and many tasty brews created on-site. A patron said he'd just come from across the street after having lunch at Buzz's Roost. "Cool vibe", he said, so of course I was game. Great recommendation. All locals, super friendly, fun crowd. Buzz's sits fight on the waterfront and has a big outside bar and an inside bar. Prompt service and many people got food. Not expensive. Great spot. Five stars! read more

We were pleasantly surprised by the food and prices. We walked into a bar atmosphere, which didn't instill much confidence in the food. I had a dirty martini to start, it was $6.50!!! Unbelievable, because my wine was $9.00. The Low Country Boil was $31.99. We didn't feel that was unreasonable since it was soooooo good and plenty of food for two. Our waiter Corey suggested adding Old Bay Seasoning and garlic to it. Absolutely get it with the seasoning and garlic. All-in-all we'd come back if we visit Georgetown again. read more

Came here for a quick bite to eat after working all morning in the marsh. Our server Savannah was super nice and the service was quick! It is the first day of college football and there are plenty of TVs to watch the games on. Ambiance is very laid back. Food was good too! read more

Unfortunately each time I go here it's a notch below the last. Our server must have been new because she was confused and honestly really bad as a server. I feel bad saying that as she was nice but she took a beer order and almost 30mins later, no beer. When we asked here where the beer was, she responded "yeah I was wondering that too". Eventually she brought the beers. My grouper rack was pretty good but not terribly memorable. My son ordered fried grouper sandwich but got blackened instead. He kept it and like it though. Also there was a buffalo chicken wrap ordered that was frankly underwhelming. Definitely skip that. Nice location though and enjoyed the deck seating. read more

We stopped here on our way to Charleston. Nice view outside, but dirty, old, and smoky vibe throughout. Very "unwelcoming" feel for me and my husband. We sat @outside patio area for 15 minutes waiting to place drink orders. As we sat, the motorized sun shield came down nearly on my husband's head as he looked over the railing. No apology was given. The waitress took drink orders of patrons who got there AFTER us then came back with their drinks and took their food orders while we sat there watching and waiting for at least, water. Needless to say, we walked out without ordering and will NEVER return! read more

We enjoyed a dinner here on a Monday night in May. We sat out in the back where you can see the water. We both ordered salads and the ingredients were fresh and tasty. Would recommend for a place to hang out and have a few drinks or have a meal. Service was a little bit slow, but our girl checked on us when she could, she was clearly very busy serving in two different rooms. Overall, a very good experience. read more

Amazing food, great ambience, wonderful, entertainment, and friendly service! I would highly recommend this restaurant

I'm surprised by the poor ratings because I really liked this place. I was drawn by the brewery inside and after trying a few of their beers, was impressed by the atmosphere and service! Came back again and sat outside to have appetizers (brisket nachos and fried pickles)- both were excellent. The prices are great here and everyone was friendly! If you're looking for a low key place to watch the boats or just chill, I recommend giving this place a shot! read more

This place was recommended because it has something on the menu for everyone. It sits back on the water and has a very nice outdoor seating area looking over the water. There are space heaters but they were not turned on. The food was very delicious, but took awhile to get our food and drinks. We sat empty on drinks and was only asked about refills at the end when we got our check. Nice drink selection as well. read more

Service was good, Food was tasty. We had a really enjoyable evening. Ambiance was ok. It could use some refreshing.

Food is AMAZING! However, service sucks. Mac and cheese was good but it becomes enough after midway eating it. I recommend the wings, the flatbreads, and come here when you have 2-3 hours to wait. Also please try the chicken bacon flatbread. 10/10 read more

Awesome for what it is. A funky bar with a great soundtrack with great river views. Excellent bar food. Great specialty ale list, that rivals a similar place in Asheville. You can kick back and relax, watch the river, have a great drink, not too crowded, Georgetown's finest Great service read more

Stopped by this spot on a Sunday afternoon. Located along the water, they offer indoor and outdoor seating. Wanted a few oysters but they didn't have oysters. As it turns out, it was a great thing! Instead, my wife and I had some of the best Nachos I've ever tasted. They were made with some of the tastiest brisket ever. The beer was cold, the staff friendly and attentive plus, some great live music. If you ever find yourself in Georgetown, SC, stop in! read more

Buzz’s Roost - Brisket Nachos! Mmmmmm..... - Seafood Near Me - Georgetown, South Carolina

Upon entering, we were immediately seated. Aside from the bar and outdoor seating, it wasn't crowded at all. If you do have a party of 4 or more, outdoor seating is not available. It is more of a bar area as compared to an "outdoor dining" area. Our waitress was really good and kept our drinks full throughout. The food is just decent, not what you would expect from a seafood restaurant. My husband and I ordered blackened shrimp which was somewhat chewy. Plus it took about 45 minutes for our food to be brought out. I'm going to assume that it is because of the lack of workers. We wouldn't come back here just because of the quality of the food read more

Buzz’s Roost - Blackened shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Georgetown, South Carolina

Throttle Down Motorcycle Ministries made its way to Georgetown on Sunday after church. Our restaurant of choice this time was Buzz's Roost. We called in advanced so our table was already prepared and waiting for us which we appreciated since we had been riding for 2 hours. The restaurant was easy to find and there was ample parking in the rear of the building with full view of the Ocean Front. There was even enough parking for 2 other motorcycle clubs!!! Amazing Food, A little on the pricey side, and remarkable view and bar area, Great Atmosphere!! The Service was great! Our waitress Shawn was very nice and attentive. She gave us our menus and provided us with our drinks all within 10 minutes. I decided to have the Grilled & Blackened Shrimp platter with rice pilaf & Vegetables, my husband ordered the Cajun Shrimp & Chicken Pasta, and our friend Alicia & her husband ordered the Blueberry Jalapeno Shrimp Tacos. My Grilled & Blackened Shrimps were mouth-watering, succulent and deliciously cooked with blackened and cajun spices that went well with my rice pilaf. My pilaf was cooked to perfection! It was fluffy, light and fragrant also paired with well seasoned spring vegetables. My meal gets a perfect 10. My husband liked his Cajun Shrimp & Chicken Pasta but his portion was too big. He ate all of his shrimp some of his pasta and he tasted his chicken but he quickly got stuffed. I should have tasted it. Our Friends Alicia & Roger had the Blueberry Jalapeno Shrimp Tacos. I was told the tacos were delicious and the Blueberry Jalapeno was the perfect blend of heat and sweet. Juicy, Spicy, and Delicious. Our Bill was a little pricey, it was a $50 lunch for 2 ( with sweet tea) but on the bright side we got 10% off Military discount which helped with the taxes. Throttle Down Motorcycle Ministries really enjoyed our outing to Buzz's Roost. It was a winner for me and I hope to visit again one day soon. I would love to try the Blueberry Jalapeno Shrimp Tacos and many other selections on the menu. read more

Always a fun place to go for some drinks, especially when there's live music. Sit in the outdoor bar/patio and enjoy some Swamp Fox's! l've eaten here a few times and really like their crab balls and chicken wings for apps On the lunch/dinner side, cant go wrong with a burger, but don't look past the fish tacos. Love them! read more

Went to meet family as it was 1/2 way spot. I was a little nervous as it's tucked basically in an alley and it was after dark when we went however I was surprisingly delighted by the people and the food. I expected typical bar food but we were given more upscale food with developed tastes that were cooked very well. My husband had shrimp and steak that were cooked perfectly. I had a chicken bbq flatbread that my only complaint was a little less bbq sauce but that's my own preference. The rest of the parties food and cocktails were great too. Our server was nice and attentive. She offered refills, checked food status, chitchatted and was all around lovely. If we have the chance to go again, we will return and would love to check out the town further. read more
