I happened to be in Conway for a week, on my own. One evening I went to Crooked Oak & fortunately heard about the "secret room" in the back. The host very kindly escorted me there & what a great surprise! The Tap Room host, Joanne, saw me looking a bit lost & greeted me. I didn't want to take a whole table as I was just there for a cocktail. Joanne suggested one of the leather lounge chairs & got me settled. She made me feel very comfortable. I'm old school enough that as a woman I felt awkward being in an unfamiliar town in a bar full of strangers. Joanne reassured me & checked on me throughout the evening. I had a fabulous Old Fashion, enjoyed the multiple TV's & ended up conversing & laughing with a whole family who were also visiting. All around, a great experience that all started with Joanne taking me under her wing & making me feel comfortable. I will definitely go back the next time I'm in Conway! read more

We had such a great experience at Crooked Oak Tap! The vibe is really cool from the moment you walk in and you can choose between the main dining area, which is super cute and welcoming, or head to the back pub area, which has a more laid-back feel. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, which made the whole experience even better. And the food? Fantastic. We literally cleaned our plates. The burgers were cooked perfectly to each of our requested temperatures, and the house-cut fries were absolutely delicious. They also have an excellent draft selection! We'll definitely be back! read more

We were extremely pleased with our visit. Though we got there around 3:30pm or so, service was pleasant, friendly and efficient. We enjoyed the beer, crab cake dinner, and dessert! The restaurant has a rustic look to it. In the back, not advertised much is a huge beautiful bar! They have our vote for recommendations to anyone in the area!! They are a farm-to-table restaurant. read more

VERY expensive restaurant. Food was good, but not truly great for the prices. Everything is al-a cart, so the price keeps going up. Wait staff tried to be comical, but under neath he was making fun of family asking questions. Ambiance was nice. Would only suggest this restaurant for extra special occasion or if there is someone in your party that is willing to pick up the entire bill. This is definitely not a place for a nice, casual meal mid-week meal. read more

This was my go to restaurant for sometime. Went on Valentines night and was absolutely disappointed. Many menu items were unavailable including a beer that we had the previous dinner there that they were out. Between watching 2 managers standing in the front on the kitchen entrance never checking the food going out and absolutely not even going to the tables making sure everything was OK. Just so disappointed how much Crooked Oat has changed and not for the better. I've been holding back my review for a while because this is the one restaurant I always recommended. Maybe it was a off day however Valentines Day Dinner is more about the atmosphere as well as the food and it should be one dinner where you shine. It almost seemed the staff didn't want to be there and in the end we didn't either. I'm sorry for this poor review. read more

How to start off with it was a little pricey, but I would do it all again. Service at the bar was really good. Justice was very knowledgeable and patient with us. My wife got the steakhouse wedge salad with steak and she ate every bite cause it was delicious. I got the Dijon flounder sandwich and fries which again was very good. Bloody Mary was the best I've had all weekend. Did not expect $11 for the wicked Weed Freak beer, but it was tasty and different. Can't wait to come back. It was very comfortable and calm this time of day. read more

The food was outstanding and the staff was great. Felt welcome from the start and had a great experience. Will definitely go back.

Stopped for lunch while checking out the city of Conway's transformation to the City of Halloween . We sat at the bar and the bartender Justice was great, we grabbed a couple burgers and a drinks . The burger was perfectly cooked I'm an old butcher and picky when it comes to meat , these were like I made them myself. The wall of whiskey/bourbon is a sight to see as well. Very comfortable seating in the bar are , there's also a main dining room and patio seats as well. read more

The food is very good but it is way too expensive for me. That is the reason I gave the score that I did. Value is most important to me along with quality, then value. The Crooked Oak did not meet that criteria. read more

OBSESSED!!! I have been craving the scallops since I went!! The food is the best I have had in the area. Our server was great, I can't remember his name since we went a month ago. I know he is from up north originally and also bartends. He was phenomenal!! The inside is a tavern with a relaxed local bar feel but with 5 star food and service!! I will definitely be back soon!! read more

Maybe my expectations were too high for this spot. The good: beautiful scallop dishes, friendly and attentive service, perfect Creme brulee. The not so good: cosmo wasn't well chilled so I had to add ice to it, my NY Strip was tough and fatty, interior/atmosphere was underwhelming, my $10 side of mushroom peppercorn sauce tasted mostly like cream. For their prices, I expected a great steak but wouldn't be likely to return for it, maybe for the scallops. Hope we caught them on a bad night. read more

Very nice place. Went there for brunch on Valentine's Day with my wife and had a very good time. Staff were all super nice, polite and friendly. Even though mimosas were not on menu they made them for us anyway. Alligator bites and French onion soup were very good apps. Christopher's Cuban sandwich was very tasty. Portobello mushroom dish unfortunately lacked flavor. Overall a good experience and we will be going back for dinner sometime read more

Wonderful menu ... fresh ingredients. Ordered adult grilled cheese sandwich, basil soup, French fries and an avocado chicken salad bowl. Absolutely delicious... only drawback was the dressing for the bowl (honey mustard lemon vinaigrette). Honey mustard overpowered it. Ordered lemon wedges to squeeze on the arugula. Perfect compliment with a little salt and pepper. Service was great, quick and friendly. Go again? Absolutely!!!! read more

I really enjoyed my visit. It is college themed. The service was great and the food was really good. We will definitely go back!

Food was OK. Had the Bison burger which was great. Asked to sub the side for the Truffle Fry Trio which cost $14 and was more like over fried potato sticks with a dipping sauce. We were disappointed because we saw the fries on yelp and assumed it was the actual fries with 3 dipping sauces. Scalloped potatoes were also subbed as a side and cost $14. They were good. But not for $14. When you sub a side we expected an up charge, not the full cost of the side! I should've at least had my actual side in addition. The menu lacks descriptions and our bartender didn't have any answers or offer any information. The other bartender explained everything after we got the bill so we obviously got someone who didn't know or care. The bar atmosphere is very nice. Might return for a drink but definitely not eating there again. read more

Had a delicious supper with clients. Food was delicious and service was great. I had the scallops which were tasty. The orzo pie it was on was deli and really worked well with the scallops. They have a large bourbon list and a decent beer list. For some odd reason I opted for an Old Fashioned. Should have gone with a stout since they had one as well as a bourbon barrel ale. Meet place with challenging parking though. We parked in the back and it was a maze. Not pickup friendly. read more

Crooked Oak Tavern - Scallops - American Near Me - Conway, South Carolina

I'm going to start with the bad. My order was not what i ordered. I ordered an American burger and collards what i got was a burger and fries. Server never asked if there was anything else, my ice tea melted. Now the rest of the story, the burger and fries were great needed mustard and ketchup, but very tasty. The reason i ordered collards is due to my experience with other restaurants and bad fries, the fries here are great tasty and fresh. The place is large and lunch was quiet. This place would have gotten a 5 star had i ordered fries and got ketchup and mustard. As a side note the menu needs to use a larger font in a dimly lit restaurant. read more

Beautiful day to sit outside at the tavern for a delicious meal with three great friends. Jake waited on us and was very attentive to our table and refilling our drinks and making sure we were pleased with our meal. Soup, salad and burgers were wonderful. We shall be back!!! read more

Do not love the new à la carte menu as it is a casual farm to table tavern and does not lends itself to 5 star service to charge $60 with no sides. Loved coming and choosing from the older menu with a filet, potatoes and green beans. The only difference now is I am paying twice for my meal for the same food and service. Will not be returning at these prices. read more

Excellent meal here. I had the flounder with rice and veggies..Jamie was attentive and really excellent taking care of me and my Party. This is a restaurant with farm to table type fare, everything fresh and natural. The Hostess came up and said if we needed anything, to let her know One of us ordered tea and they brought an entire tray with all tea choices and she was able to pick one. Foodcwas great; I definitely recommend this place for dinner! read more

Holy cow! I don't know what this amazing little steakhouse is doing in sleepy little Conway, but I'm so glad it's doing it! Sister and I came in for lunch and we were treated like the only and most important people in the place, served amazing food (she had fish sandwich and I had blue cheese burger), and just had a grand time! My parents live in Conway, and sadly I live in San Diego. So I won't get to visit Crooked Barrel again soon, but the next time I'm in town, this will be my first stop: after my parents-of course. read more

Start with the crab cake - it is nowhere NEAR a Md style crab cake. It is completely edible. Also, the sandwich bread is WAY to big for the cake. The sauce that comes on the side is really good. Rhe sweet potato fries were really good. The shrimp appetizer was amazing! I gave 5 stars because the place is nice, waiter was good and the app was super, even the rice the shrimp were on, sooooo yum! We will go back but get something different. THE CRAB CAKE PIC IS A COLD LEFTOVER CAKE, it is to show no lump meat, in other words, NOT Md style! read more

I usually don't post reviews but I was so confused about this one. Now I've eaten at crooked oak over 100 times and have tried almost everything on the menu. Tonight was so different. We waited 25 minutes for a server to get our drink order and another 15 minutes to take our order for dinner. It was not busy at all. Our food comes out 1 hour later and this is what I received a smashed up crab cake and half of another crab cake. Keep in mind I've eaten crab cakes from here at least 10 times before and they were always decent for the area. Very little filler. So I spoke with server and he informed me that this is how the owner "Chris" prepares them. I explained that's not true it's a crab cake! Then the manager came over and was very condescending. She also said that's how they are in Maryland. When I informed her that I am indeed from Baltimore and have eat crab cakes at all the spots and never had one like this. She then explained that's I was incorrect. But she did offer to remake them. I declined because I knew it would take another hour to bring them out. She then said "that's fine" and walked away. Overall it was once again a terrible experience. I will not be going back. read more

Love this restaurant. They have the most amazing food and sitting outside is so beautiful on their outdoor patio. At night they have lights and music and it's so relaxing and beautiful to sit outside. I always go for the fish sandwich which has been a go-to for many people and everybody raves about their food. They have very interesting food and it is all locally raised and all farm to table. read more

Had lunch here today. We were immediately seated and received great service throughly our meal. We had fried green tomatoes, a blue burger, and the pulled bbq chicken sandwich. All was delish and farm fresh to table, as our waitress described. Can't wait to come back for another visit! read more

Seating inside or out, amazing meal! Chicken picatta with three crispy filets and angel pasta to die for. Hubby had shrimp and grits with sausage. Both meals were the best of our favorite dishes. He also ordered Dirty Myrtle Double IPA that he loved. read more

The new location of Crooked Oak Tavern is just a few buildings down from the old one. I loved the old location but it was small and crowded. This new location is so much better. The dining room is large with plenty of tables. There is also a separate bar room with even more tables. Every server we have ever had at the Crooked Oak has been fantastic. They are always attentive, friendly and efficient. Food here is top notch and is definitely among the best in the Myrtle Beach area. Last night we just wanted to stop in a check out the new bar during Happy Hour. I'm glad we did because we decided to order some of the Happy Hour Appetizers. We had the Fried Carolina Shrimp and the Loaded Dirty Myrtle Fries. The shrimp is Calabash style; lightly battered and fried. Absolutely delicious. We've had the Dirty Myrtle Fries before and loved them. This time we tried them loaded. Definitely a hit as well. If you go, make sure to check out their Happy Hour Specials. read more

It's one of our go to places when visiting our Chanticleer. Great food. Great servers. Great atmosphere. Love it!

9/27/25 we decided to stop in for lunch. Should have definitely been a red flag when the hostess had to tell the waiter that he needed to serve us. What should have been an easy lunch, turned into 1.5 hr experience after the order was taken. (3 hamburgers, 2 salads) To top it off, while waiting to pay, the same waiter took the hand-held kiosk and threw it across the table at me and walked off. If that is how this wait-staff conducts business, then I can spend my money elsewhere. read more
