Unfortunately it didn't make it out of the parking lot so I didn't get a photo. I'm lucky I got a bite because it was Delicious! The pastry was fresh, the strawberry icing was perfect and not too sweet and the filling was just right. We also went for a fresh croissant, a stuffed oatmeal cookie and a chocolate chip cookie to take with us. All so good. The oatmeal cookie was saved for the next day and pro tip, I opened it up- scraped off the icing added a marshmallow and toasted in the oven - added back the icing to the other side, smash back together and it was bonkers good. The line was long but went quickly so don't let that deter you from stopping. Sweet Al, until we meet again I will be dreaming of all your sweet treats. Now everyone go Treat Yo Self to something delicious from Sweet Al's. Love~ jane

This coffee place is a hidden gem steps away from the beach! We went on a morning beach walk and…read moresomewhere stumbled upon this 'hidden' coffee shop right off of the Tiki Hut. We were craving morning coffee, so we stopped our beach walk and headed up to Tiki Hut to go to the road, when we saw a sign for Sweet Al's. Hoping this was a coffee place, we followed the signs, and it led us to a shop in a condo complex. It was all open, so we were able to stop in! It is very small in here, but it was packed full of people and goodies! There were so many seeet treats, a vast menu, and even grab and go items. I wanted to try one of the many unique, custom drinks offered here. I asked the cashier what the best speciality drink was, and she asked if I like coconut, and I said yes! Seconds later, a huge coffee with blue foam in it appeared lol. It was very good! Sweet...just how I like it. It was coconut flavored cold foam with cold brew coffee and whole milk. It did take just a second of the drink to come out, but there was no where to stand and wait and the menu had a lot of items crossed off and paper specials hanging. This was confusing as I didn't exactly know what was available and what wasn't. A true hidden gem that I would totally come back to!

I believe I got a bourbon and a pear, seasonal doughnut, a doggy doughnut for a friend of mine, a double chocolate doughnut for my father, and a meatball bacon cinnamon roll doughnut. My whole order including the doggy doughnut was only $20 minus the tip. They have coffee here along with lemonade, sweet tea, iced tea, and refresher you can get the coffee- hot or iced. I also noticed they have a wall of merchandise. I will definitely be back to pick up a hat, a sticker, and a T-shirt. 10/10 Phenomenal donuts Next time I will make sure to come a little bit early to get my father, the peanut butter and chocolate doughnut. She mentioned that one goes really quick.!!

Biscuits are huge and tasty. My hot shot chicken biscuit topped with pimento cheese and local hot honey was good. I think it could've used a little more pimento cheese and honey. No way you're eating this without a fork and knife. If you're thinking of ordering to go and eating while driving, think again. Lots of random decor inside as you can see from a few pics I posted. This place is small inside, maybe seats 30 including the counter. They probably double that capacity with outside seating.

I don't know if you can imagine my joy when I saw the Paris Baguette sign off the main road while…read moreheading to the resort. As a Bay Area foodie, that sight instantly made my day. If you know, you know. The pastries here are absolutely worth the detour--and honestly, wherever I see a Paris Baguette, I do pull over. That includes locations I've visited in Northern California, North Brunswick, New Jersey, Atlanta, Georgia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and even the one here in Charlotte down in Pineville. It's a bit of a drive for me, but when I'm in that area, I always make a point to stop in and pick up a couple of their delicious croissant-donut pastries and marzipan or almond croissants. That's the beauty of this bakery--it's a chain, yes, but the consistency is what keeps me coming back. I have yet to be disappointed. Of course, I had to stop at this Hilton Head location--and I didn't come empty-handed. Food connects people, and bringing pastries to your host is always a winning move. I picked up three different varieties of their famous croissant-donut style pastries (similar to the well-known cronut): * Chocolate * Tiramisu * Mango And I added two large almond croissants that were beautifully filled, flaky, and indulgent. Everything looked fresh, full, and irresistible. The setup inside is easy and efficient. It's self-serve: you grab a tray, line it with parchment, use the tongs, and select whatever catches your eye--from baguettes to cakes to coffee drinks. Checkout was quick, Apple Pay was accepted, and the whole experience felt smooth and well organized. The space was clean, friendly, and inviting, with plenty of outdoor seating. Bottom line: Whenever you see a Paris Baguette on your radar, pull over. It's dependable, delicious, and perfect for picking up pastries to share--or to treat yourself. For me, it's one of those rare places that delivers the same quality every single time, no matter the city--and that kind of consistency is something I truly appreciate as a traveler and lifelong foodie.

Service was good, you order at the counter and then they bring your food out to the table that you choose yourself. The whole restaurant is covered in Mardi Gras and UGA decorations including a dog house. Crawfish parade - 5/5, the crawfish etoufee was delicious, I didn't eat the rice because there was as so much food, but the little pie was good. The corn on the cob was tasty. Crawfish bisque was yummy, all the crawfish was so good! Chicken tenders - a little dark, so the kids didn't really like them - 2/5 Kid's shrimp - 4/5, my 11yo thought the fries were not crispy enough. They were more like steak fries Kid's grilled cheese - 4/5, my 9yo liked her grilled cheese Key Lime Pie - we would not order this again here. It was too sweet for us and the consistency of jello Beignets - too thick and not fluffy, they were not great, we would not order these again. Stick with the crawfish parade.

It was pretty busy with people grabbing ice cream, snacks, and souvenirs, which gave it such a fun vacation vibe. They have a self-serve soft serve ice cream station along with a huge candy section where you can fill a bag with however much you want. Honestly, they seem to have just about anything you could need during your trip. My husband ended up buying a Hilton Head T-shirt, and I found the cutest oyster shell ornament for our Christmas tree. While checking out, I looked over by the ice cream section and spotted the viral chicken wing ice cream that's apparently made in Charleston, South Carolina. I got way too excited because I've seen it all over social media but had never found it in person before, so of course I had to buy it. Thankfully, it did not disappoint. They also have a front patio area where you can sit and enjoy your snacks, plus extra racks of clothing outside if you're souvenir shopping. Overall, this place has a little bit of everything and is definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area.

If you forgot sunscreen, swimsuits, bug spray, band aids they have all that too. Plus kids beach toys and souvenirs. Plenty of HH logo tee shirts and water shirts to choose from.

Waited forever for waiter to come by and when he did he was not friendly and complaining about how long his day was (his name was Tweedy?). He got drink order wrong and was mostly absent during the entire meal. We asked the hostess if we could move booths to a larger booth due to a few in our party being larger people. There were two larger booths open (one was seated with four people). She told us that the larger booths were only for tables of 6 or more. I showed her that there were four people at one and she said that they were an early seating vit we couldn't move. The thing is this... the four top was seated AFTER we were seated. Other two tables sat empty until the last few minutes of our dinner. The food wasn't anything special either. One dish was bland. Another not cooked well. Crabcakes were delicious but 1/4 isn't all that good when you're paying that much. Anyways, we used to LOVE this play. Always had good service, good food and took care of customers. Something has changed in the last year. Nectar used to a "must eat" on our trips. Not any more.
