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…
Like any good coffee and book store you’ll find this one when it feels like you’re walking down an alley. Grant Street runs parallel to Newcastle in beautiful downtown Brunswick, and you can just follow your nose until you see the chalk sandwich board. Spiral Wanderers describes itself as a metaphysical coffee bar and book…
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…
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…
Taste the fire! Nestled in Retreat Village on St. Simons Island, Ember Farm to Fire is redefining Southern dining with its high-energy vibe and a menu that’s as fresh as it gets. This locally-owned gem writes its menu daily, drawing inspiration from Southeastern U.S. cuisine with clever nods to European and Asian influences. If you’re…
We came to Marshside Grill on a Friday for lunch in the off-season. It’s one of the few times we didn’t have to wait for a table. This place is just that good. With killer views of the marsh overlooking Saint Simons Island and Jekyll Island, Marshside has some of the freshest seafood around. And…
Hot Dog Alley has been a beloved island institution since 1994! After a very successful career in life insurance, Bill Dumigan retired to St. Simons in 1993 and soon after bought a little hot dog cart. We lost Bill in 2017, but his amazing hot dogs live on. Cassie and I spent years poo-pooing anyone…
First Fridays in downtown Brunswick has become a tradition for us, filled with music, shopping, and the hum of community spirit. And despite the wide variety of dining options lining the streets, including a dozen food trucks, my husband and I seem to find ourselves drawn to one place in particular: Arte Pizza. There’s just…
