All you Mothercluckers and Nashville Hot Chicken lovers look no further for your fix than a quaint little house in Pier Village called Porch. And what a cool porch (and patio) they have here nestled underneath the generous shade of a beautiful live oak. This is one of our favorite go-to restaurants for a casual…
I’ll never forget the first time Cassie and I went to Indigo Shanty. It was almost surreal. Like we were in a completely different world… in a homey, friendly and relaxing world which nearly exactly describes the food here. It’s tucked off the beaten path a bit but close enough to walk to if you’re…
One part of our family is large – I mean like they have been very busy kind of large. They have been coming to St Simons Island for years and, of course, our house is just not big enough to accommodate such a crowd. Sadly most restaurants aren’t either, or they’re overpriced for such a…
It’s the Wee Pub. The name alone should evoke home and happiness. And it does. We moved from Atlanta to the Golden Isles at the tail end of the pandemic years when Millennials were flooding the home market and turning competition for homes into a blood sport. Like a lot of people, we made an…
When I first walked into Broomelli Boys Pizzeria with the my show hosts, the smell of fresh dough and roasted garlic in a fiery brick oven smacked me with delirious delight. You know that scent. You can smell it now! Authentic, homemade, fresh pizza in the oven. That’s exactly the vibe at Broomelli Boys on…
When Silver Bluff Brewing opened its doors in 2020, it instantly became the center of downtown Brunswick. We love stepping inside, often lured by local music, grabbing a beer and meeting up with friends or making new ones over a game of cornhole. There’s a cozy feeling inside or out that just makes you feel…
Catch 228 is a local hangout for families and fun. There’s a comfortable laid-back island vibe about the place with something for everyone: sports on the telly, outdoor seating, a full bar and solid, good food. We often go for happy hour 4 – 6pm when you can get a dozen oysters for just $15…
My family has been in the South since before the War of Northern Aggression. I know a thing or two about barbecue. You can really get messed up coming to Hootenanny’s thinking you’ll get the traditional pulled pork with sticky sweet sauce, white bread, baked beans and coleslaw. It’s not here. Think more like Charro…
If you’re wandering around Pier Village and find yourself craving something deliciously refreshing or satisfyingly hearty, stop by Boba Booey located in the Pier Village Market— a bright, cheerful spot that’s as fun to say as it is to visit. A Menu Full of Possibilities A Taste of Pure Delight On a recent sunny Sunday…
When I first walked into 24 Coastal Grill, I didn’t expect to find one of Jekyll Island’s most relaxing dinner spots tucked inside the Holiday Inn Resort. But sometimes the best meals are hiding in plain sight — and this one comes with an ocean view that does half the talking. The restaurant’s coastal-casual design…
