Finally made it here and will be back for drinks on the water! Fairly easy parking but it was filling up later in the evening. Be prepared that you can't park right in front. Easy ordering and picking out drinks. Fun vibe but wasn't overwhelming or crazy on a Friday for happy hour. read more

Island Cabana Bar - Furry friends welcome! - Salad Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

This is a fantastic spot for a cold drink and to soak in the sun! There's tons of outdoor bar style seats along with a few low top tables inside and out. You can build your own bucket of drinks at a reasonable price and enjoy the view. Unfortunately the food missed a bit - my Buffalo fried shrimp and fries were cold. The tuna wonton nachos were decent but didn't have a ton of tuna for the price. The service is counter style and you receive a buzzer to pick up your food. Still worth it for the views and drinks! read more

We stopped by Island Cabana Bar for lunch and had a really nice experience overall. We ordered the shrimp tacos, ahi tuna salad, and a beer-- everything tasted super fresh and flavorful. The seafood especially stood out, which is exactly what you hope for at a waterfront spot. Pricing was very reasonable too -- our total bill came to $54.78, which felt fair for the quality of the food, drinks, and the location. One of the best parts is the setting. There's a huge outdoor seating area with great views -- you can even see the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge, which makes for a really nice backdrop while you eat. It's also pet-friendly outside, which is always a big plus for us when we have Luna with us. Only small downside: parking can be a bit of a pain. You may have to park and walk a little, so just plan for that -- but honestly, the views and atmosphere make it worth it. Overall, fresh seafood, good prices, beautiful waterfront views, and dog-friendly outdoor space -- we'd definitely go back. read more

Delicious food with a great view! We came here for lunch when I was visiting my son and his girlfriend who recently moved here. I had to try the frose and it was delicious! We ordered the tuna nachos and they were really good. My son's girlfriend and I got blackened fish tacos and my son got a chicken wrap. We were all very happy with our food and drinks! read more

Such a fun spot right by the water! Parking is around the corner from the boat lifts, just a short walk away. There's plenty of seating inside and outside - outside seating has some shaded options too! We ordered the buffalo shrimp tacos, tuna poke nachos (which were HUGE), and a side of fries. Initially, we thought everything felt expensive, but the portions were a great size & everything was delicious. Also tried the OG frosé which was so refreshing. This hit the spot for us for a casual seaside spot. We can't wait to come back at sunset hour. read more

We had an order of chicken fingers and fries (wife) and blackened shrimp tacos (me)... with a side of black beans and rice...everything was great! It was cold so we didn't get to enjoy the beautiful outdoor area but regardless, it was a fun experience and highly recommended. Parking is a bit confusing but we figured it out and enjoyed our time. read more

The food was really good, given what I was expecting for a waterside dive kinda place. My fried fish sandwich was amazingly fresh, and smelled like the sea. My partners had the fish tacos, grilled and fried. They both thought highly of their choices, and both were barely able to finish, so definitely they had enough food. ICB has an inside location where you order food, grab your drinks, and pay. You're given a pager and it's too to you to find the seating you want. They have several tables under a covered area, and a long pier with stools on both sides. We chose the power, rounded up stools, and waited for our food to be ready. On a Friday evening, food took about 30-40 minutes to be ready, so be aware. Didn't care! The location on the water is just amazing. read more

Very cool atmosphere to grab a drinks that's right on the water and isn't that crowded. Service is great all you have to do is go up and put in your order and the staff will come out and give you your food. Only complaint is that it does get a bit buggy out at night read more

Food was fantastic! Sitting outside and munching on hush puppies was the best! That honey butter is amazing!

One of the only places that you can get seating on the water. The great place to come if you're just getting off the boat and wanna grab a drink or to even just sit by the water. It is self serve inside and then you can bring your drink out onto the pier and watch the boat throughout the harbor. Great view of the Ravenel Bridge with speakers that have music All the time. It can be really hot so make sure you wear sunscreen. The chairs outside are metal so they might be hot when you sit down. I got the mahi bites and they were a great taste and not too breaded. Very fresh and the people here are super nice. You can even get a bucket of seltzer if you are waiting to go onto the boat. The parking situation is limited in the front so you do have to park on the side of the street past the entrance. read more

Really nice spot and hidden gem for now. Great place to bring visitors if they're looking for waterfront drinks and food! Bring a windbreaker - things can get a little windy and cold on the island cabana bar dock, but there are heaters under the porch area. We ordered tacos and fried shrimp: everything was fresh and tasty with fun drinks and a good selection of merch and dessert. They are probably usually swamped, but the staff are friendly and efficient. read more

This was a fun little spot for a quick bite and a couple drinks! We sat outside overlooking the water and watching the weather roll in. So neat! This is a grab your drink, go to the counter and order kind of place. Considering THAT, I feel like it's a bit pricey. The food was good though, and the selection of drinks was interesting. I would definitely recommend for a chill lunch. read more

I was served inedible conch fritters, clearly the frying oil hadn't been changed in a while. The person at the expo window had more than enough time to look over this dish and determine these were burnt beyond belief but instead served the food to me. After debating if I should bring this to their attention or not, I decided to take the burnt bits to the cashier. She promptly recognized the issue and before I could finish speaking was in the process of taking the dish back to the kitchen and asking them for another batch of fritters which at that point I had no interest in. I would have really appreciated the $13 dollars I paid for inedible burnt food refunded to me instead of having to wait for another batch of fritters. The cook was kind enough to bring the fritters (which also weren't good) out to me and apologized for the mistake... I appreciate the gesture. I'd recommend skipping out on the food here. Drinks & views were great though. read more

Popped in for a bite on a Monday afternoon. Had some trouble getting to the place waiting on the train, but once it passed we found ample "street parking" in the side lot as parking in the boating area near the restaurant is not allowed. I ordered the Mahi Fish Bowl and my husband got the special Italian Hoagie. Everything was delish and more high-end than anticipated given the dockside location. The employee at the cash register was so kind and patient and went above and beyond to correct a mistake with our food. Great selection of beer, wine, and froses with an option for buckets of mix and match! Music selection was superbly matched to the venue and gorgeous dockside views of the water. Would love to come again soon and try something else. read more

Their mahi mahi bites are delicious and their fries even better. I honestly found a gem here. The place is completely out of the way from downtown but has views of the water. They told me that everything that they cook is fresh catch of the day. You have to put in your order and no tip needed as you go pick up your order as well. Honestly this place is a 10/10 read more

my friends and i went for a free lowcountry boil event. this was our first time going to this venue. the store is so cute and very well set up! the venue itself is in a wonderful location with a gorgeous view of the charleston harbor and the ravenel bridge. the prices of their goods are on the pricey side, but understandably so. i will definitely be back! read more

Super delicious!!! Loved watching a storm roll in over the water from the covered picnic table area. Yummy selection of frozen drinks. Parking is in a lot next door to the boat storage. read more

I really like this place- so relaxed, great view, super friendly people, dog friendly. Parking always seems to be tricky but it actually wasn't any of the times we went. You go inside the marina to order food or but your own drinks (big selection). The forest time, we just went for happy hour (drinks). Tje next time, we ate there. My husband had the fish tacos which he really liked - i got the tidewater shrimp which i would not have picked had I paid attention or asked what the tidewater spice is (it tastes like old bay). Staff was very friendly. We will go back for sure! read more

Nope.. not sure how this place has such great reviews on their food. It took forever to come out and it was severely lacking flavor. Wife ordered shrimp roll and it was simply just a slop of mayo and shrimp; bread was decent. I got the fish bowl and had my mahi swimming in Texas Pete to add some flavor. If you have 2-3 hours to hang out and get absolutely hammered then not having your food might not be an issue for you. I'd advise to bring some ole bay with you at a min. read more

I love recommending Island cabana bar to anyone that comes and visits or just for a girls night out. It's very chill vibes. We love the idea of just grabbing a bucket, buying some beer or seltzers to go in it and sitting out on the dock and watching all the boats come in, it's beautiful over there. They also have froze, we rarely ever get food, but sometimes my friends get their bowls or if I'm really hungry I just get the fries, they're pretty good. It's a cute place to take pictures after. sometimes They have live music and it's dog friendly. Parking is on the street and not terrible but heads up there is a train that goes by so you could get stuck there for a little bit if you're leaving during train time but I would highly recommend going. PSA I Haven't been this winter since it got really cold out so I'm not sure if they have heaters out. they have small inside area to sit with a cute market as well as the regular food and beer. The team there is cool and always helpful and nice. read more

This is a local hidden gem here with the best views of the Ravenelle bridge right off the Cooper River!

Island Cabana Bar - Crossing the bridge from where you park. The island cabana is to the right very end of the dock. - Salad Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Seabreeze's Island Cabana Bar is a cool little dockside place to enjoy your cocktails, food, and the Cooper River! ICB is like a small marina general store that also has a kitchen. The kids were stimulated and enjoyed all the drink, popcorn, and candy choices. Ordering is similar to a Panera type QSR where you order at the counter, pay, and then they bring you your order while you chill at a picnic table and enjoy your drinks. The layout is brilliant in that you have room under the roof (picnic tables) OR you can venture out to the community tables and enjoy the sun! At this price point, you're on the water, won't break the bank to feed your family, and will leave satisfied. ICB has all your bar food classics, walks the line well between QSR and restaurant, and plenty of drinks from which to choose. Standouts include the cuban (small, but packed with flavor), fish tacos (love that crema), and the perfectly prepared wings. Many places on the water (especially in the Chuck) phone it in with the food because they figure that they're on the water and the water is the main draw. ICB understands that yes, you're there for the water but also WANTS to impress you with their food. Impressed, we were. Simple, tasteful, and welcoming. Everything you need in a QSR (and the view) are here, in one place. While it was a little chilly that evening, we look forward to returning in the spring when the weather is a little warmer (hot, even) and we can cool off with a beverage and dive into [wink] ICB's delicious bar food. read more

I came here with a group of friends and it was a great time! It's a smaller bar with absolutely gorgeous views of the Ravenel bridge! I spent a summer evening here it was so nice to enjoy the views with a delicious drink. I was even able to watch dolphins go by! For ordering you go into their shop grab drinks and then take a pager that will go off when your food is ready. For drinks I started with the froze pouch! There's a handful of flavors including strawberry, mango and pina colda. I mixed the strawberry pina colda and it was delicious! I then decided to split a beer bucket which was 5 beers for $15 dollars. The beer was both good and a great deal! Food wise is why I'm giving 4/5 stars. The food was in the $15-20 range with smaller portion sizes. I ordered the fish bowl which I thought was great but everyone else in my group seemed to have left hungry especially those that ordered the tacos. In addition to food the parking was also difficult. I had to walk about 10 minutes to the restaurant from the parking. Luckily for me I was able to follow people there if not I think I would have missed the restaurant and not have known where to park! I think the ideal way of getting here is by boat if you have one. Many boats came up to get drinks while I was there and they seemed to be having a great time! read more

No parking anywhere near the restaurant. It's not easy to find either. Because of these restrictions, we have not tried the restaurant. If we see any outstanding reviews on the food, maybe we will Uber there. We are just too old to walk that far from the nearest parking lot read more

Views are of course nice, people were friendly, but food was just OK. No parking there, so you have to park outside the boatyard, basically by the access road near the port/train. The have beer and wine and alcohol slushies and plenty of space to sit and look at the bridge/water, although a lot of it is not shaded. Don't forget to be aware of the train schedule (they post it there), otherwise you won't be able to leave (or get there) for an hour or so in the 3p-4p timeframe. Worth checking out, but unless you have a boat not sure how often you'd go back. read more

What a hidden gem! If you are looking for a spot that has a beautiful view of the water, Island Cabana Bar has just that. With a dock that extends out far into the water, you are as close to the bridge as you possible can get! This location is very low key and different than many downtown spots. Inside you order your food/drinks and its kind of like a convenience store. Their Frose is delicious and I would highly recommend. When I went they also had lawn games like corn hole, which I always find to be a huge plus! read more

I've been here a few times now. The location is nice as it is directly over the water. You are close to the highway and train track so to avoid waiting, time your arrival carefully if not coming by boat. There are boat slips and easy docking areas as well. I really love their frose pouches and buffalo shrimp! Their food is tasty for sure, but for the amount you get the price is kind of high. Higher than what I would like to pay. They were pretty skimpy on the fries as well. The flavor is there but up the amount please! $20 for shrimp and fries is too high. Good on ya if you have patrons willing to pay for that. Pet friendly and live music, its a nice hang out for a sunny Sunday afternoon. read more
