Once you go inside, you will see why the regulars are here like clockwork. They have live music a few times per week, a pool table, TV's, and a cool staff. No, this is not the Ritz-but if you're looking for a locals hangout/dive bar that welcomes all with a great vibe, it is a must to hit when in Beaufort!

I debated 4 stars or 5. I'm doin 5. This place is special,…read moreI can tell. It's a local spot. But still inviting enough for a traveler. And I like that. Very cool dive feel when you walk in, with the bar and pool table, money hanging from the walls. But as you walk to the back it opens up to the water with a beautiful backdrop of the lagoon. Very very cool. With the outside bar and live music, it's pretty neat. I really enjoyed myself here. Service was prompt, and friendly. I was greeted from the moment I walked in. I like that. We ordered some food (we were starving) and I want to give the cooks a compliment on the chicken caesar wrap, it was surprisingly very well made. I wasn't expecting much but great job! I hope to come back and enjoy another view on that back patio. Thanks for the memories. Cheers!

Hi Everyone, When…read moreyou unsure of what you feel like eating, what do you do? We like to frequent a restaurant with a good variety of entrees from which to select our meal. We sometimes prefer a cocktail or a glass of wine with diner and will occasionally have a tap only Guinness with our meal. We expect good service because we do not wish to wait, as most of us don't, because we have our lives to live and for some reason, we have gotten quite used to delicious, hot food! lol. We enjoy smiling, and laughing as many of us do, so a friendly, polite, and efficient Server is a plus. For all of these reasons and especially because we don't always know what we feel like eating, we would like to recommend to you the British Open Pub in Bluffton, SC. Why? Because the grub, sorry, food, I hate it when it does that, lol; is very tasty. Their menu offers a variety of different fare. Their atmosphere is quaint, pleasant, and laid back. Their service has been great every time. So next time you are unsure what you want to eat, beat your feet to the British Open Pub because you will be satisfied you did. Enjoy!

Outstanding experience. We were in a bind after another establishment lost our reservation. We made…read morea call to Breakwater, and they took us on very short notice. When we arrived, they not only welcomed us, but put us (party of 9 for a Marine graduation) in a beautiful private room. From the Manager to the Hostess to our server, Lisa, the service was superb. All our food was excellent and beautifully presented. These folks certainly live out the adage, don't give the customers what they expect, give them more than they expect. They turned a disappointing evening into a joyous celebration. We highly recommend this restaurant.

I wish I could explain some of the bad reviews, but I can't (well, perhaps I could but we'll keep…read moreit civil. Being turned away because the place is popular is not a reason to give 1 star.) This is not luxury roof-top dining on the island... this is American pub comfort food... and it is GREAT for what it is. We've been there at least 10 times with only one item that was mildly disappointing. the pot pies, sandwiches, burgers. All great. Even the steak and fish. Their country fried chicken and mashed potatoes is the ultimate comfort food. I don't often order alcohol, but I love their light, crisp house ale and get it every time.Compared to most places now-a-days, the prices are good. I feel sorry for the reviewer who thought the Cracker Barrel across the street was better... they are somewhat similar, but OAH has more variety and is much better.

It's a great bar/tavern, and food is not bad at all. I loved the ambience, the friendly bartender Michael, and the to-go food we got was quite good. I mean it's not world class but for what it is, a great little place. I had a couple of drinks and good chat at the bar as I waited; got some soups, fish and chips, shrimp and chips and hushpuppies. All went down well and fast. I'd hang out and have a lunch there any time!

Dinning at the greenhouse this evening with my father…read more Caroline was amazing!!! We had to make open table reservations prior to coming here; we were seated immediately. I ordered the Georgia Peach cocktail and my dad had a beer. We got a meat and dips plate and house pickles for appetizers. On the dip store they have a tomato dip with a green dip with roasted onions and garlic on top, they also have a ricotta spread however, I can't do that because I can't do cheese here at the second plate has a strawberry, balsamic jam, mini Erkins, pickled okra, a salami, a pork, and a ham and then some bread. The roasted tomato dip is very creamy and has a light drizzle of olive oil on top. Greendale and zucchini dip is very light and refreshing. It's a little bit less oily than the roasted tomato hummus. There is a strawberry jam on the plate. It tastes really good with the salami and the chip. Dinner I got the burger with a lettuce wrap and some chimichurri and some vegan aïoli. I later ordered some ketchup and hot sauce to go with my burger and seasonal veggies. My dad got the meat, meatball and rigatoni and he cleared the whole plate. For dessert I got the lemon sorbet, which is absolutely amazing and it taste like if you were to eat the lemon candle from Yankee candle. The ambiance is an upscale southern restaurant. I definitely recommend it. 10/10

I am so sad to give this review since is is such a beautiful restaurant and good restaurant options…read moreare needed in our area that are not chains and I hope it this is taken as more as constructive criticism for them to improve, but here it goes. The restaurant is definitely stunning inside , I gave it a star for that and another star for what their menu offered. I have been to their speak easy upstairs, which is also nicely decorated, where their small plates were decent, but they couldn't make a dirty martini, truly dirty. We went for brunch with high expectations ignoring the fact that the prices were high, since I am willing to pay good money for good food that I personally dont need to cook. Unfortunately this visit came out very short. There were 4 of us and two had to send the food back. Chicken and waffles, the chicken was way over cooked and the waffles came out cold...butter would not melt on them and the fritatta had no flavor. They were gracious enough to replace their orders (thank yoi) and my Mom really enjoyed the peach French toast and my friend ordered the breakfast burger, which she said was much better. Now for the breakfast burger review since my other friend and myself got it. We both loved the burger, toppings, running yolk egg (Thank you for using /supportingquality meat from Hunter Cattle, it is where I buy my meat for home). The bun, which I am sure was gluten free, which they are looking to cater for was like a brick for the burger, and I get that it may be needed for people who need it , but an lighter option for people not gluten intolerant would be great. While the fries were cooked well, they were way over salted and I am no salt sensitive.. .less is more and if people want that much salt they can add it at the table. I am sorry, but at this time I will not be going there again due to the pricing and the fact that even though they were gracious enough to replace the meals the service soured a little after their returns. If a friend really wants to try it, I may try again....maybe for dinner service, but not going out of my way at this time. Man I hate writing not favorable reviews, but I felt this needed to be said

Graham was a wonderful server. We were a group of 6 tonight. It was slow in the restaurant…read more Richard and I ordered a vegan pizza... no cheese, grilled onions, basil, mushrooms with a tomato base. And an arugula salad without the goat cheese. The salad with pine nuts was tasty. The restaurant could accommodate our diet willingly. Our pizza was last to be served... about 5-6 minutes after all the other food was served. That was okay, but certainly not ideal. The other pizzas that were ordered looked covered with cheese and ingredients. While ours did taste good, the flavors in the sauce were quite nice, the toppings were very skimpy. I could hardly see any onions or basil and sparse mushrooms. Speaking from experiences of pizza at other places with our vegan request, typically the pizza is more loaded with the vegetables since we are not having any cheese (I.e. cost savings to the restaurant) to compensate and make the pizza look more substantial. It is a policy I would strongly recommend for us vegan folks. We would then return with company who would order the items off the menu... now we have no incentive to return because the pizza was ok but not worth the price. This is my humble opinion based on our travels outside of beaufort South Carolina. Here is a plus... we asked for a gimlet cocktail... not on the menu, but the bartender knew what it was and did a nice job making it!!
