Excellent food and friendly staff! I loved my Shrimp Po Boy sandwich, and the chicken salad (as a salad), was also delicious. Big menu, casual dining and in the heart of downtown. Would definitely come back! read more

The food is great! If you are looking for a great sandwhich after the beach, this is the place to go. During peak hours it gets crowded, so expect a wait. Grab at drink at the bar while you wait. The bar tenders are friendly and have great drink recommendations read more

Brogen's South - American Near Me - Saint Simons Island, Georgia

Stopped in for drinks and sat at the bar. Great local spot and the service/bartender was excellent!

202505171758 Seated, no waiting. Server slow to take drink orders. Outside seating in front facing beach as well as upper level. Inside, very few customers, bar seating, TVs, 80s music, electronic darts, ATM. Tasty, crunchy fried pickles w/ ranch for appetizers. Little girls host & serve, friendly. Good food, reasonable wait, slow on follow up - had to request refills & check. Leave room to head across street to Fuse, then stick your toes in the sand. read more

Food was tasty and service was excellent. Out server was friendly and attentive. The location is great - it's right near the pier.

Great service. Good friendly atmosphere. Good drinks and food looked and smelled amazing. Bartender was very friendly and made us feel right at home. Didn't exclude us at all even from the locals. We felt right in. read more

We came on a Saturday when they were fairly busy, but service was still amazing! My niece was ready to order, but we wanted to enjoy cocktails first. We were never rushed to order. The Planters Punch cocktail was great! My niece raved about their wings, and when I tried one of hers, she was right! They are some of the best wings I've had! The shrimp dinner and fries were also delicious! This will be a new favorite place when visiting! read more

Stumbled upon Brogens during our girls weekend in St Simons. We grabbed some seltzers and got to enjoy some live music on the outdoor patio. They have a great setup and we had a super fun time! Would absolutely come again! read more

Excellent stop for a cold beer, a mixed drink, or some bar food. Seating inside, outside, and up top are all good. The service is quick and friendly too! read more

The food was adequate, at best. The ambience was lacking, but what really left a sour taste for me was being rushed out of an empty restaurant. I was asked if I wanted my plate packaged to go while I was still eating. Look elsewhere. read more

We stopped here for lunch on Friday afternoon 4-24-26. The food was delicious, I got a grilled chicken salad and mozzarella sticks. The staff and service were excellent. The environment was outstanding. read more

Great food and great service, as well as sitting on the porch enjoying perfect weather!! Looking forward to another visit for lunch.

Food was very nice and enjoyed drinks on the upper deck out front. Not over impressed with inside. Service was great so I definitely suggest checking it out. read more

Came here in February and came back this week. Last time we ate outside and enjoyed that. This time we were inside. I liked sitting outside and enjoying the nice weather. Inside it was just a regular pub/bar. They had TVs with sports on. Enjoyed our food. The hush puppies were delicious. My husband got wings and they grill them quickly at the end. He wasn't a fan, as it dried them out. (He doesn't like them with ranch or blue cheese, so maybe that would make a difference.) read more

Terrible food and equally poor service. NOTHING is fresh or homemade, EVERYTHING is from nasty frozen stock. The server's #1 goal is to get you out of the place. They bring the payment machine, not at your request, but as soon as they see fit. Then they start cleaning up the table while you're still there. Disrespectful, sad, dirty little place. It literally amazes me that Brogen'e can stay in business with so many other good eats within walking distance like Zuzu's, Barbara Jeans etc. This place is trash. read more

This place was such a fun place to eat and enjoy time with your friends and family. We weren't expecting much at first as this was the only place that didn't have a long wait compared to the others in the area at the same time. But maybe it was just my luck because the food was amazing. The service was great! She accommodated every request we had plus some. The food came out quickly and everything was delicious. We will definitely be back to visit. read more

Great service from Cory on the patio. Nice glass of wine and tasty food. Blackened fish and chicken wings were scrumptious! read more

Here me out. Get the shrimp salad with thousand island dressing. Ask for extra avocado 2x, Tabasco sauce and 4 packs of crackers. The servers are amazing and will accommodate you. Combine ingredients with some dashes of Tabasco sauce. Mix well. Absolutely perfecto. Delicious and reminds me of my vacations in Mexico. Sit on the rail upstairs and order a beer and watch the sunset. Rinse and repeat every time you come to town! read more

My husband and I recently visited St Simons Island for our anniversary. During our stay we went to Brogens. We started with the fried green tomatoes which were to die for. For entrees, I ordered the fish sandwich which came blackened and he ordered the ribeye sandwich. Both were delish and came out super quick. Our server, Cory, was friendly, funny, and on top of things. We ordered on his recommendations and they did not disappoint. We will be returning after an overall great experience! read more

Great wings, onion rings, drinks, and staff. Five star dive bar. Nothing special, but done right.

Checking out restaurants in the area and this one was suggested as a fun place to go. I went on a Monday night, it was pretty slow, but it delivered a solid product. I was part of a larger group. Our waitress did a great job managing the orders and keeping us supplied with refreshments. She also did well in keeping everything straight for our bills. The drinks were good. I ordered deep fried shrimp and French fries. It came with a small side of coleslaw. Everything came out appropriately hot and tasted good. My dining partners seemed to like the food they ordered and also felt our waitress did a good job. Overall, the restaurant was good; however, prices were somewhat high for the food and drink ordered. Worth a try if everything around the pier is busy. read more

Brogen's S. has my favorite burger on the island. Their black n blue burger is top notch. To accompany it, the zucchini fries well done are excellent. Service is good. Atmosphere outside up top is great. Go get a burger & a view of the Pier & enjoy. read more

This review is very late. We went to an antique sale a few Saturdays ago and the closest restaurant we came across was Brogens. There was a long wait. First they tried to seat us at like a bar rail overlooking the parking lot. The sun was blinding. I got the hostess to agree to let us sit at a table they were apparently trying to hold for a party of 4. I had a chicken sandwich and my wife had a burger. The food was a okay, the service a little slow. I would give them another try when we are back in the area. read more

Have been coming to Brogen's South since it opened in the 90's. We keep coming back for the food & ambience. The location helps as well . I ordered the club sandwich with sweet potato fries & a Los Bravos's beer on tap. My wife ordered the smoked turkey sandwich with sweet potato fries & a sprite. Both sandwiches were delicious and the portions were quite large. Brogan's South never disappoints. read more

Fun little pub! Great burgers and fries. Very busy during Georgia games. Accommodated our party of seven easily.

Friday for lunch they are not too busy. Great location with easy access to shopping and the pier. We had our Scottie dog with us and was welcomed. It was nice sitting on the upper outside deck and people watching. I had a Reuben sandwich with tater tots. Plenty of flavor. My wife had wings. Pricing comparable to other similar places. read more

We enjoyed our meal definitely will return. The food and drinks were excellent. Strongly recommended and very good service.

This time around it was not great. The fry grease needs to be changed and the food tasted terrible. Everything is else is good! Sad little visit this time. The waitress shae was M.I.A. Had to grab my own condiments & ask other people for them. read more

Had lunch with a friend and had a very nice time. Server was nice & attentive and paid the right amount of attention while we dined. I had the chili w/onions as an appetizer. Good serving and a good basic chili. Not spicy but nice & thick with the right amount of chili pepper. The mahi mahi tacos were very good with a nice filet in each taco. I had tater tots as the side and an ample amount was provided. Good spot to have a beer & just hang while in the Village area of St. Simons. read more

Jason, a gentleman who sat next to me, along with his wife and son, said that the burgers are the best on the island. I read that on previous Yelp reviews. I had a blue cheese & mushroom burger. Absolutely this may be the tastiest burger with an awesome charcoal coating with a side salad. Jason, who is local, paid for my dinner, which astonished me. I have paid for friend's meals before. I never had a stranger pay for my meal. I always believe in paying it forward. read more

Legit spot right in the heart of Saint Simons. Super friendly staff and awesome ambiance. Just FYI it's UGA dog football only on Saturday. We still got drinks and sat outside but this place can get crazy during a game. read more

I will say that the place looks pretty rundown, and gives me more of a bar vibe, then a restaurant. On the other hand, we ordered a Cobb salad because it was so hot and wanted something not too heavy and it was way more delicious and fresh than I thought it would be. We also ordered the fried green tomatoes. The most redeeming thing about them was the jalapeño ranch that it came with that was delicious. The tomatoes were sliced too thin, extremely greasy, and soggy. read more

Stopped by here many times over our visits to SSI. We have enjoyed a beer at the bar and the food. Really enjoy their wings and onion rings. Nice view from the upstairs. Great UGA bar in the fall to watch the DAWGS. read more

From beginning to end the service here was a complete disappointment. We waited for our table for about 20 minutes, which is not a problem, but there were several empty tables, and several families that arrived after us were seated immediately both outside and inside. It truly felt like the hostess was intentionally avoiding seating us. When we asked what ciders were available, the waitress stated she did not know and would ask. When she came back, she stated they had "bottled" cider. We asked what ciders were bottled, and she laughed in annoyance and said she did not know. Next, we got an order of hush puppies which arrived burnt. We asked three different people for a side of butter as we had waited probably 30 minutes and it had not been brought. Each server acted very annoyed at our request. One even came by and asked us if we were doing ok and if there was anything he could get for us, and we said that we had been waiting on a side of butter and asked if he could check on it. He then sighed and said "it will be a few minutes..." -- ok, then don't ask if we need anything... When the food arrived, the bacon cheeseburger did not have bacon. At that point, we had such a difficult time with the service that we didn't even bother mentioning it. We also could not get someone to come by and check on us for a box, so we resorted to getting up and getting one ourselves. We were truly questioning if we were being targeted and if we had done something wrong because the service was that bad. However, we noticed the family seated beside us was also having many of the same problems (not being brought their drinks, menu items missing, asking for items several times) so I guess this is truly an establishment-wide issue. I am totally understanding of a restaraunt being short staffed or slammed -- that is not an issue. The issue lies in the employees treating us like we were a complete pain and inconvenience for asking for the bare minimum and having requests when were asked if we had any requests. I am never one to write reviews, but I was so disappointed with our experience that something truly needs to change with management and/or how their business is run. We were so excited to try this place as it had been recommended to us by friends who loved the atmosphere; however, things have certainly declined since that time. I really would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. read more

Horrible Experience. We Were Harassed. This was one of the worst experiences I've ever had at a restaurant. My wife and I came in expecting a peaceful night out and instead left feeling humiliated and disrespected. From the start, the staff was rude. The hostess barely acknowledged us and seated us in a corner even though the place was half empty. Our server acted annoyed from the moment he approached us, brushing off our questions and giving my wife an attitude for asking about dietary options. Then it crossed a serious line. As we waited for our food (which never came), we noticed several staff members whispering and laughing in our direction. One waiter passed our table and made an extremely inappropriate comment aimed at my wife. We were stunned. I asked to speak with the manager, who not only refused to take it seriously but laughed and told us to "lighten up." No apology, no accountability--just excuses. We got up and left, and the manager had the nerve to say we'd be charged anyway. I told him we weren't paying a cent for being harassed in a place we came to enjoy. His final words? "You should've stayed home if you're that sensitive." Absolutely disgusting. This wasn't just bad service--it was personal, degrading, and completely unprofessional. I'll be warning everyone I know. Do not eat here. read more
