About This Spot

Snooky’s Oceanfront invites you to unwind by the water where the sound of waves mingles effortlessly with the hum of easy conversation and the gentle clinking of glasses. Nestled right on North Myrtle Beach, this spot feels like a coastal retreat that captures a relaxed, breezy energy — a place where locals and visitors alike come to savor both the view and the authentic flavors of the Lowcountry.

Step inside or head upstairs to the open-air bar, where the mood shifts seamlessly between laid-back afternoons and vibrant early evenings. There’s a rhythm here that encourages slowing down, enjoying company, and letting the world drift by with a welcoming sense of familiarity. Whether you settle inside away from the sun or find a seat on the upper deck, each spot lets you soak in glimpses of oceanfront charm and subtle background laughter.

The menu echoes this feeling of approachable sophistication, offering seafood cooked with straightforward respect and a bit of playful flair. Imagine sharing crispy conch fritters or freshly grilled oysters alongside a lively signature cocktail, while friendly servers—often recognized for a warm and attentive touch—help you ease into the experience. Favorites like the steamed snow crab and jumbo lump crab cakes show a commitment to quality that’s felt in every bite, while sweeter moments come courtesy of house desserts that bring a satisfying close to the meal without fuss.

Families find their place here, too, with thoughtful options that keep younger guests happily engaged. From lightly fried fish bites to shrimp and crab dips, there’s a tangible sense that every visitor matters, whether they’re longtime locals or discovering Snooky’s charm for the first time.

Snooky’s Oceanfront is more than just a restaurant; it’s a seaside gathering spot where the simplicity of great food and a gentle ocean breeze create moments worth lingering for. It’s a place that invites you back, not just for the flavors, but for the atmosphere that feels simultaneously familiar and full of discovery.

We came to Snooky’s simply because it was recommended online as one of the best spots in North Myrtle/Cherry Grove. We dined downstairs, inside, and had a server that wasn’t the worst but wasn’t the best either. Very middle of the road. The food, however, was so good we knew we had to come back and give it another try. Enter Lauren. This time we ate outside, upstairs at the bar, and Lauren was our bartender. Of course, it needs no saying, but the food was incredible (again). What really made the night, though, was Lauren herself. She was quick on her feet, even while busy, and had everyone at the bar taken care of as well as a 12 top party at the bar tables. Her drinks were perfect, as was her energy. The view at Snooky’s, and the food, is reason enough to check them out; but Lauren is definitely a top contender as well. (for the sake of pictures, I personally started with the Conch Ceviche which was fresh, flavorful with the perfect kick, and nice and light. I followed that with the Sesame Encrusted Ahi Tuna (cooked at chef’s recommendation) for my entree and the tuna was perfectly cooked, the sauce was to die for, and the rice and veggies on the side paired well with the dish. Of course, for dessert, I went with the mile high chocolate cake and I regret NOTHING; well, nothing other than not taking pictures of the drinks Lauren made. I am a gin lover and picky about my dirty martinis, but she made it perfectly; and didn’t even bat an eye when I asked for three shakes of hot sauce in the drink to give it a kick. The people I was with ordered their THE O SEA D and the SOME BEACH and even though I didn’t try them myself, they were well liked and highly recommended!)

We stay at Towers on the grove and is a short walk to Snooky's. If you drive parking may be a problem. We ate there just before Christmas and hardly anyone there but in the summer it's an entirely different vibe. I had the Jumbo Shrimp and the wife had Crab Cakes. Both were excellent.

Lilly was amazing, food was fantastic, and I love the atmosphere. I had the Oyster Snooky's and the Pan Seared Seafood Platter with crab cake, scallops, and oysters.

All of the food was good! Calamari was tender, fish bites were amazing (our daughter thought they were chicken nuggets so that was an added bonus) and the waiter, Will, was very attentive! We sat outside and enjoyed the atmosphere. We will definitely be back again! We came around 4:40 to beat the crowd and walked right in. There are longer wait times the later that you go.

Absolutely awesome! The crab was very very good, and the best calamari we’ve ever had! Can’t pass up the desserts at this place either! Our server, Vivienne, was lovely

I tried a new dish. It was delicious. It was a new dish sandwich made with a flounder type fish and a crunchy oatmeal batter. It’s really good with french fries the coleslaw could’ve been a little better and more french fries but overall very tasty. The service was very good. I got served by a waiter willthe atmosphere is good because you have music live music next-door. It’s not sticky. There’s another restaurant but it’s right next-door you have an upper level. The atmosphere is good because you have music live music next-door. It’s not sticky. There’s another restaurant but it’s right next-door. You have an upper level where you can overlook the ocean while you eat. There’s a lower level where you can just be on the ground floor outside in this inside where you can see through the windows and then there is also indoor Away from all of that but it was a very nice experience. Lovely. I liked it.

We found this place via google and thought we would give it a try. First, parking is a major issue. There’s a public access lot just down from the restaurant but it’s like 10 bucks an hour to park there beyond that the only other places to park are permit only for local condos. The food was good, we enjoyed our meals. The crab cakes were very good and so was the flounder po-boy. The calamari was ok but I was disappointed the banana peppers weren’t also deep fried and were just raw and laid on top. It makes the calamari breading soggy from the pepper juice. Overall it was okay, a little pricey but a cool local spot.

The food was spectacularly good. Great drinks. Amazing views of the beach. Casual place with big flavors.
