And the sunsets from here are extraordinary at Skull Creek Boathouse in South Carolina!

Daily specials, like Chef Brad’s Blackened Lane Snapper topped with a Salmon and Crab Croquette, dress up the menu even further. Of course, for that person in your party who doesn’t eat seafood, they do have some items for landlubbers.

Not only is it tasty, it’s also beautiful!

Skull Creek Boathouse In South Carolina June 23, 2019 Robin Jarvis What are the best themed restaurants in South Carolina? Visitors to South Carolina always love a good, tropical-themed restaurant that serves up fresh seafood in an unassuming atmosphere. You’ll find that and much more at Skull Creek Boathouse in Hilton Head. However, if you’re seeking a different sort of themed eatery, head to Sullivan’s Island to a restaurant inspired by Edgar Allan Poe - who was stationed on the island for 13 months during his time in the military. The restaurant is a bit of a shrine to the dark literary icon. The popular eatery is known for their creative burgers. Read more about Poe’s Tavern here. Another awesome themed restaurant is found in the northwestern part of the Palmetto State, where you’ll discover an old whistle stop on a popular railroad line that has been converted into a train-themed restaurant. The Whistle Stop at the American Cafe is a delightful place to dine among train memorabilia. It serves American fare. What are the best waterfront restaurants in South Carolina? South Carolina’s major lakes, many rivers, and more than 180 miles of oceanfront provide ample opportunity to dine at waterfront establishments in any season. For a distinctly historical venue located along the Catawba River in Rock Hill, check out The Pump House - an eatery located in an old three-story pump house on the river’s edge. The restaurant serves American fare with a free side of gorgeous river views. If it’s oceanfront dining you seek, then head to the Sea Captain’s House in Myrtle Beach. You can’t go wrong with a restaurant that’s been around as long as this one - and is still in the top 10 list for patrons! Meanwhile, lakeside dining in the Palmetto State abounds with a variety of wonderful establishments on the shores of our many lakes. If it’s a casual evening dinner while gazing at the sunset that you desire, head to Lake Greenwood’s Break on the Lake for a quiet dinner. What cities in South Carolina have the best restaurants? It stands to reason that South Carolina’s most heavily-trafficked tourist destinations have the most restaurants, and by default, also the best ones. The following cities have some of the best restaurants in the country: Charleston, Hilton Head, Beaufort, Greenville, and Myrtle Beach.
