Stopped in for happy hour. What can I say?? Here in Myrtle Beach for my Dad's unexpected passing and ordering what I was told were phenomenal Pizzas. It's happy hour and we really needed some happy. Mission accomplished! The giant pretzel and beer cheese were probably the best I've ever had! Photos and review of pizzas (take home) to Follow. I need family review input for those. read more

Ate out here for the first time on Saturday January 24th 2026 with my parents. Tavern in the Forest is basically like a bar restaurant that also serves pizza and has Happy Hour items from 4-7 Every day of the week! When we parked, it was actually quite busy, and we walked into the restaurant, someone greeted us and told us there was a wait since there was a party going on in the front room. So we put our name on the waitlist and didn't wait as long as anticipated. We were sat at a high top booth. This place has plenty of booths, and tables as well as high tops and 2 bars! Lots of TVs to watch your favorite sports team! For their menu, they have everything from appetizers like pretzels, nachos, fried green beans, potato skins, and philly eggrolls, to entrees like fish and chips, chicken and waffles, to sandwiches, salads, and burgers-- and also pizza! Our server was Kelly. She brought us waters, and we all decided to try the Tavern Punch drink! This drink is also on their Happy Hour menu. The drink was made with grenadine and was very good! We all enjoyed it. We also ordered some appetizers such as the Fried Green Beans, and the Nachos half order. Food and drinks came out in the timely manner. We were given napkins and plates by our server. Appetizers were very good- Fried Green beans were excellent and didn't taste greasy at all! Nachos came with lots of toppings including jalapenos which were all on top. Nacho half order also was a big portion! Chips were fresh and crispy. Kelly made sure that we were happy, and checked on us constantly. For entrees, I got the BBQ Burger M, and my dad also. My mom got a sandwich. Our entrees came with fries- my only feedback would be to ask if the customer wants fries with their meal, never know, may want sauted spinach instead! I was fine with fries though! Again entrees came out in a timely manner, and food was very delicious, and was cooked to temperature. We got a box for half my burger and my mom's sandwich. Oh, and little mix up with the check, but both our waitress and us solved it. They do charge 3% for a credit card, but for the food i think it's worth it! Paid via credit card and left a cash tip. Hope to be back soon to try their other food! Oh, and side note- I do work here as a host- if you see me, do say hello! And this review may be a little biased because of that. read more

We recently moved here and was excited to try something close to home. The food was good. We got that 1/2 order of pulled pork nachos. They were great and the portion was huge. Overall the portions were large. The down side was the service. Our waitress was essentially nonexistent. We never got any drink refills. She put the food down and was gone before we could even ask for ketchup. We finally had to track down another waitress to even get our bill. read more

This was our first time trying out Tavern in the Forest, and it was a great experience! The nachos and Margherita pizza were delicious with great portion sizes. Service was quick and our waitress was very friendly. The atmosphere was perfect as we wanted a sports bar to watch the game. They have many TVs, making it easy to watch from wherever you're sitting. Plenty of parking! read more

Crazy good food. Great service. Nice vibe to the place. Got a caprese chicken sandwich with fries, the brisket sandwich, a blackened shrimp dalad and a blackened chicken salad. Kids grilled cheese. All wonderful. C u again. Thank you read more

I have enjoyed the Tavern Burger and fries several times. Yesterday, my bun was not fresh and the fries were different than usual and not good. I had been so looking forward to that burger and fries! I was so disappointed. The service continued being great! read more

The atmosphere was great . I had the French Onion Soup it was delicious. Then I had a pizza with green peppers and onions, it was really good . read more

Service was good, quick to our table about 7PM. The waitress said we had just missed the rush. Overall, it was a nice setting. We sat at a high table with an elevated bench seat. The food was decent, nothing that would make me beg to come back, but not bad either. My espresso martini was yummy! Overall, a 3 for us means we would give it another chance, but we aren't craving to rush back. read more

Tavern in the Forest is a really fun spot! We popped in around 6pm on a Sunday. It was fairly busy, but we had no problem getting a table. They have really good happy hours deals as well especially for appetizers and drinks! Our server was very kind and we had great service throughout the evening. We ordered the buffalo chicken dip to split for our group of three. It was a good portion to split and very tasty! Can't really go wrong with a buffalo chicken dip in my opinion. Then I enjoyed the specialty slice of the day which was a cheeseburger-style pizza with beef, pickle, tomato, and a fun burger sauce. It was just like a burger on a pizza! Plus I love anywhere that served by the slice, so you can mix and match! Overall, great experience for some bar food. read more

This place is great if you don't mind your feet sticking to the floor and the bathrooms left absolutely filthy from the Friday night crowd. Who doesn't clean their bathrooms everyday/night ! Sooooo gross. The waitress was good and the food wasn't bad but all the dirt made me worry about how clean the kitchen was. With so many other places to choose from we won't be back read more

Food was good. Had wings which were crispy and tasty and fried pickles. The homemade ranch was a standout. Pizza was good. Place was crowded but a good time. read more

Teriyaki burger was great! 1st time here, nice atmosphere. Low key. Can bring the family or have a drink with friends. Staff was friendly, could have been a little more attentive and refilled drinks. Would try again if we were in the area. read more

food was good but it was cold and we picked it up on time. we had to eat it up ourselves when we got home. fries were also overcooked.

Delicious grilled cheese and fries. Was 2nd time here. Great service from our server. A bit loud at 7pm on a Thursday but was tolerable. Will be back. read more

Our order was missing cheesecake. We had asked for utensils - nope! Food was late. By the time the order arrived, the food was soggy and cold. A lot of money for a club sandwich and hamburger wasted. read more

Tavern in the Forest - Nachos - American Near Me - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

MUST STOP restaurant for locals and travelers alike. Very spacious location and an absolute treat to discover. Went here for the first time with coworkers for some drinks. Firstly the happy hour menu SLAPS portions are very generous. Ordered $5 fries pickles and had enough for the entire table of 4. The drinks were incredibly, incredibly well made! Not skimping but not overpowering. Had a Kentucky Mule for the first time and am jonesing for another one! The entire atmosphere was very upbeat and truly felt like a local hangout. Oh, and I can't leave out the staff. Every single staff member met us with a smile and we were very well taken care of as well. While he didn't identify himself as such we did have one guy come around and personally ask us how everything was. I wonder if he was the manager or something. Point is, we weren't overlooked at all. My coworker got what I believe is the Italian Sub and split it with me and it was incredibly delicious! We also got fries each. Plenty for us both it was crazy. All together, for the sub, $4 drinks (two were off Happy Hour menu), the total was $37.... I'd only ever known about this place from Maps and exploring the area around my job. So glad I very randomly ended up going there! read more

Always very loud here...I'm going on a rant now. I consider Tavern a bar that serves food. Not a restaurant. I don't think kids belong in here. Take them to a more kid friendly environment. Now for the food: the Italian Special Pizza was alright. I expected it to be salty but no. Kinda bland. I had to add table salt, pepper and grated cheese. The potato skins were the cutest little things ever! Hit the spot just very small. Definitely not an Idaho potato. read more

Let's jump into it! Don't I always?! The PBJ. Burger, chefs kiss . The spicy peanut butter sauce pairs perfectly with the sweet Asian sauce. And bacon...bacon pairs well with everything! Duck wontons- super interesting dish! Most similar to a empanada. The cream cheese has a stronger flavor profile then the duck (I'm biased, I like the protein filling ratio to outweigh the cream cheese though). The chili sauce is served on the side. Blackberry Whiskey Mule-a unique drink, as I've never had a mule with Chambord. Not too sweet and the black berry add a touch of tart. Highly recommend. Parking- This spot is located with a lot of neighboring spots. It can become congested but there is a decent amount of parking available to patrons. Service- Brittany was my server and bartender. She provided great service! Request her next time you go in! Aesthetics: if your looking for a lax and fun bar scene, this tavern is for you. Check their insta for their specials! read more

Standard bar food. We came in on a Friday with a whopping party of 8. We knew we'd have to wait. We were quoted an hour and a half, but it was closer to 40 minutes. Love when that happens. Huge menu! I went with the chicken tenders but our party ordered something from every category. The only item that was disappointing were the duck wontons. They should be advertised as Rangoon instead. So. Much. Cream. Cheese. Plenty of parking in the complex. Waitress was lovely. read more

What an amazing place the atmosphere is great and the food is amazing I recommend this place anytime service is on point very nice place and people read more

All just local yocals hanging around at the bar. Slow service, food is basic and over salted on everything we got

Great local bar and atmosphere is ideal staff is great and attentive food is very very good

Seems like another good crowd here this afternoon! There was Plenty of free parking! The decor of the restaurant was very pleasing! We were so Happy to see our favorite waitress "Kat" on duty!!! The Buffalo chicken pizza was very tasty and had some heat! The boneless Buffalo chicken was very good and we enjoyed teriyaki sauce it was dipped it! This is the 1/2 sheet of Nachos, which were really awesome! They were made with plenty of good ingredients! The bathroom was clean and well attended to. We will definitely be going back again really soon! read more

We went here for brunch with big expectations. We were disappointed in service and food. The brunch beast biscuit was not a special sausage and cheese biscuit and just tasted old and stale, hard even. The Tavern Nasty biscuit is delicious and the reason they aren't getting 1 or 2 stars. We waited 10 minutes to be greeted by a server while they all talked behind the bat and we almost left. Ordered brunch cocktail specials that didn't come out until right before our meal. The grapefruit salted Paloma was so bad you could not drink it. It was repulsive. When server finally checked on us she took back and did remove from check but was not nice about it at all. Bellini was horrid as well. Hot, no peach flavor at all. Very disappointed read more

Always a good time. Great food, drinks, and service. Pizza, wings, buffalo chicken dip...all excellent

Pretty standard local bar. Kids were all satisfied with their kiddie cheeseburger and grilled cheese, kids ages were 7-10 years old, so enough to satisfy their bellies. French noon soup was delicious and the half portion nachos are more than enough for 2-4 people, they were huge! Lots of TVs to see the Olympics and local sports. I would go back but if you're not a bar/tavern food person, may not be the best place for you. read more

Enjoyed happy hour and food. The appetizer big pretzel with beer cheese is more than enough for two or three people and was warm and delicious. I had the shrimp and cheesy grits and the best edition of this favorite dish of mine I have had yet! The ahi tuna with doodles served rare was also - per my husband- delicious although I ate the zoodles. There's plenty of bar seating for happy hour and a friendly bartender. We will be frequenting this place! read more
