8 Tastiest Breakfast Spots in Myrtle Beach

In South Carolina, Myrtle Beach is one of the top vacation destinations on the East Coast. It’s all about the fun, the beach, and the adventure. So, while you get to go about relaxing, our favorite breakfast chefs remain serious and ready to whip up some of the best morning eats in town.

So before you take on the day cruising the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk or tackling the local hiking trails, make a plan for the best breakfast eats in Myrtle Beach.

1. National House of Pancakes

If there is a breakfast restaurant that encapsulates the fun and color of Myrtle Beach, it’s National House of Pancakes. Listen, you’re on vacation, and you deserve a delightful treat and the perfect kickstart to your day.

Offering up the best and most epic pancakes in Myrtle Beach, each flapjack is made from scratch –  just the way your grandmother would make them.

The old-school quality and attention to the craft of making insane pancakes is just how they roll. Everyday. This lies in contrast to their new school espresso coffee creations that come out looking like extravagant cocktails.

To round out their menu, you’ll find grits, Belgian waffles, and some incredible New York Cheesecake.

2. Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar

The scratch-made Southern comfort food whipped up at Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar brings the vibes of a chill Nashville Sunday to Myrtle Beach. The decor and restaurant layout complement the high-end breakfast eats to create one of the best Myrtle Beach restaurants.

Their cuisine follows traditions and culture rooted in the Carolina mountains and the spirit of Appalachia. The simply crafted menu and responsibly sourced ingredients lay the groundwork for a meal that evokes a sense of grandeur.

The color on your plate promises to be as captivating as the flavors themselves. Classic avocado toast is just the start. How you’ll choose between the smothered chicken & biscuits and the brunch-style whiskey & onion smash burger, we’ll never know!

3. Zeytin

Continuing with the theme of upscale breakfast dining, Zeytin brings some Mediterranean flair to your morning—well, the entire day, thanks to its all-day breakfast menu.

Light, fluffy, and full of flavor, Zeytin’s gluten-friendly griddle delights offer a fresh take on your morning favorites. The Zeytin, a waffle, pancake, or French toast with a combo of berries, warm chocolate, and powdered sugar, will have you seeing the angels.

However, Zeytin’s Mediterranean cuisine sets it apart. This includes the Egg & Sujuk, with its delicious cheese-stuffed crepe, and the hearty Loaded Mediterranean. The common thread throughout is fresh and light ingredients that won’t leave you bloated at the beach.

4. Lulu’s Cafe

I have a soft spot for old-school diners who keep tradition, good times, and the era of cream-filled coffees alive. Lying on the Grand Strand in the heart of Myrtle Beach, Lulu’s Cafe is all these things and more.

In the height of summer, the Cafe’s inviting atmosphere is standard. The good times are on from the moment you sit down and take your first peak at the menu. Start with a ‘Manmosa’ by switching your champagne for beer and embark on the arduous task of picking your meal out from their lengthy menu.

Take your pick from their Benedicts, pancakes, toast, biscuits and bagels. You could even opt for takeout and walk a few steps for breakfast on the beach.

5. Sea Captain’s House

There is a revered elegance to the Sea Captain’s House. The beautiful, old-time cottage lies on the oceanfront with splendid Atlantic Ocean views. Prior to your trip to the Myrtle Beach area, get a reservation and spend at least one morning eating at the beach.

Steps from the Grand Strand, the Sea Captain’s House serves up dishes “fit for a captain.” The award-winning restaurant may be famous for its seafood lunch and dinners. But its southern hospitality, impressive menu list, and large breakfast buffet ensure you’ll leave with a big ole smile on your face.

Pair the soothing sounds of the ocean waves with French Toast, bagels, and breakfast sandwiches, and wash it all down with a refreshing mimosa.

6. Johnny D’s Waffles

Hearty American diner fare collides with the expert hands of award-winning chef Jamie Deskalis at Johnny D’s Waffles. The beloved Myrtle Beach breakfast joint will have you falling in love at first waffle.

The colors on display and the enriching scent will first capture your attention. But once the Bacon Waffle or Red Velvet is placed beside you, your taste buds will be in for a wonderful ride.

However, Johnny D’s isn’t just about the sweet stuff. A good chef always has more than one dish that’ll hit the spot. Peruse the menu to find fresh skillet dishes, egg benedicts, three-egg omelets, and other delightful savory options.

7. Blueberry’s Grill

Blueberry’s Grill offers classics with a creative twist. The pet-friendly restaurant serves impressive breakfast and brunch, arguably the most important meal of the day. Even if you love breakfast as much as we do, it’s easy to get tired of the same old morning eats.

Blueberry’s Grill will certainly keep you on your toes, transforming your run-of-the-mill eggs benedict into a Stone Barn Pork Belly Benedict extravaganza. The vegetarian Village Burrito is known to put a bandaid on the consequences of a late night out. However, to truly load up, the Monie Cristo is one of the best breakfast plates you’ll find in Myrtle Beach.

8. Winna’s Kitchen

One of the newcomers to the Myrtle Beach breakfast scene, Winna’s Kitchen, has made a quick impact. On the Grand Strand, you’ll find a vibrant location with a gorgeous layout that will soothe your weary morning eyes.

From Easter to Labor Day, their celebrated and elevated comfort food is bound to kickstart another amazing day by the ocean. You’ll find all your classics here, done to perfection. In addition, healthy salads, granola, and Greek yogurt combos, as well as intricate breakfast sandwiches, round out the menu.

To help the local community, Winna’s Kitchen lets you pay it forward by providing a meal for someone in need.
