If you haven't been here before just remember to snag the first parking spot you see. Big place, plenty of seats both inside and out. Seat yourself at a picnic table in the sun or inside at the bar. Your choice. Fabulous service from Elizabeth today. She was super busy but made sure to check on us. Then we ordered too much food. Two of us split the fried pickle chips. Then ordered fish bites and the Archie Burger. Unless you are superhuman it was too much food for us. But we loved the taste and made a valiant effort. Thanks again Elizabeth for a great experience. read more

We came here on a beautiful Sunday afternoon to see a band play and it seems like the whole rest of the state was also there. Such a great and fun place but obviously due to the great waterview location it was very busy. But our waitress was great and came back and checked on us often. A fun place to hear some live music and some great people watching. We also tried some of the food items on the menu and were not disappointed. We tried the Apple salad, steak tips, and a burger. read more

Been there several times and I have never been in a place where I had to stand up like bowling pins the band are no good and the food is really bad read more

Busy Sunday afternoon. Waitress was amazing! We both ordered the clam chowder! I ordered the cheeseburger with onion rings and she the blackened shrimp taco! Chowder was ok! Bland! My cheeseburger was good! The onion rings were fine! My wife's blackened shrimp taco was good. It was 1 soft shell shrimp taco! Service was great! They were getting ready for a band to play so there was a lot of activity going on! Great location but not really impressed! read more

We went there Oct 2025 based in internet review of best seafood with a view. I made reservations thinking we need too. We arrived and went to the front desk and said we have a reservation. The told us to go ahead an walk into the restaurant bar area. We stood there for 5 minutes, nobody to assist us. We finally spoke to a waitress and they said sit anywhere so we did. It is not fancy by any means, seems more of a party place. I ordered a Tuna special. I came out dry, after finally flagging the waitress they check with the manager and only offered to give me free drink. I said I wanted to send it back and try again. She said nothing I can do. Wow. I forget what my wife ordered but recall she said hers was so so. It does sit on the intercoastal so that was a plus but I will never return. read more

Was told this was a fun spot by the water with drinks food and music by locals . Unfortunately as soon as my friends and I sat down, our bartender Jay was pretty rude. He asked what we would like to drink and when I told him Sprite he told me I was lame. Definitely not how to greet your tipping customers and shame on you! Won't be returning there the next time I'm in town read more

Fun place to grab a beer and a bite. We enjoyed the band and the people. We will definitely be back again.

Talk about off the beaten track! Without GPS, never would have found this place. Great atmosphere! It's a sit wherever so you may have to share a table and hope the waitress spots you. I ordered the combo platter with crab cake and flounder. The crab cake was overcooked for my liking but still good with the remoulade sauce. The flounder was fried with a nice golden brown coating and oh so tender on the inside. The hot hush puppies with the honey butter were soooo good. They had a great band playing some lively tunes and seemed this was a place that catered to the locals. Unfortunately no food pics as I left my iPhone in the truck and didn't want to loose my seat but suffice to say, this will be a place for future trips to Myrtle Beach. read more

Super fun place!! Popped in for drinks and really enjoyed the atmosphere! This is a really large place with two bars inside. Lots of seating inside and out and it's located on the intercoastal waterway. It was staffed with super friendly people and very quick and nice service. Def will stop back again and def recommend for fun! read more

Captain Archie's - American Near Me - North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Captain Archie's is a great place to hang out, have lunch, dinner, and drinks. One of the best locations on the ICW with tons of tables both inside and out. Live music is offered just about every night and many afternoons. The servers are very friendly and make you feel welcomed. They really hustle keeping your drinks flowing. The menu is what you'd expect at a waterfront beach bar with burgers, seafood bar type food, salads, and apps. They also have entrees and dinner offerings that go beyond the typical pub fare. The best part is that the food is really good, not just pulled from the freezer and nuked. Captain Archie's definitely checks all the boxes! It's hard to beat. read more

Captain Archie's - This place is rocking! - American Near Me - North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Just spent Easter Sunday afternoon here listening to the Jim Quick band . Food and music was great and they even had a golf cart to take you to your car if you parked far away. They've got their act together! read more

Another local hangout with great music and good times. Big, open bar area with roll up doors everywhere. Service is friendly and fast. One of my favorite places to hang out. read more

Arrived 10:15pm to watch the band. I asked the bartender to start a tab and he said we are closing in fifteen minutes when the band ends. On a Saturday during spring break closing at 10:30? We drive 30 minutes to get there. I know new state laws required training and a higher insurance policy if you serve after 12am, however, 10:30pm was a slap in the face. Won't be going back! read more

The atmosphere was lively, but our server was AWOL most of the time. We were a larger party (8) so maybe she was just overwhelmed, but I never even got a refill on my drink! The food was fine. read more

Great food and service. Fried pickles are some of the best I've ever had. Hot honey chicken sandwich was very good as well and nice and spicy. Went back two days later and had the same meal again. read more

We arrived with 11 people in our group. 9 were seated at 2 tables. 2 went to the bar to eat as there was not enough room at the 2 tables. Food was good, service was great. The need to add more restrooms for the size of the place. They even had men standing on line to use the restroom. Also if your on line at the restroom there is full view of men using the restroom. That should be fixed. read more

Pork chop Thursdays are the absolute best! Chops cooked to perfection and comes with 3 vegetable sides with tea included in price. Also enhanced by fast service, great view of ICW and our wonderfully attentive waitress Elizabeth! Kudos to Capt Archies for a great dining experience! read more

Awesome place to hang out and have a cold beer.The fish bites were awesome and our server was super responsive.

I am ashamed I forgot to review this restaurant right after we tried it. My dad has been talking about Captain Archie's for quite a while now, he goes often with his bowling buddies, but we went with him for the first time in the middle of December. It's in a great location on the water and a large place, room for plenty of people and live music (they were setting up as we were finishing up our meal). I can see why it's a popular place for motorcyclists during bike week, as is for anyone who would like a nice place to eat on the water when the weather is nice out. If I am remembering correctly, my dad got a fish sandwich, my husband got a burger and I got the chicken, apple salad with raspberry vinaigrette. The food was really good. I especially loved that the chicken on my salad was an actual grilled piece of chicken and not just some sad little chicken strips that you would usually get at some places. It was very delicious and super filling. I know that when we are out to visit my dad again when the weather is warmer, we'll go back to sit by the water. read more

Three of us went for lunch today and the food was really good. Two of had the lunch special and one had a hamburger. We got our food fast.

We've been here twice now. Once for lunch and once for dinner. The food is just pub grub. It's nothing fancy, but it's decent. There are two main problems with this place. The music is always RIDICULOUSLY loud. I love live music, but I also want to be able to talk to the person sitting across from me at my table. Also, they have open seating. There is no hostess to seat anyone. People literally fight over tables. And people will stand and hover right over you waiting for you to finish eating so they can grab your table. It's really unenjoyable to have strangers hovering to claim your table when you're trying to eat. They would be so much better off if they just had a hostess and sat people like a normal restaurant. read more

Talk about the food! Amazing ! Coleen is the most congenial waitress and they are so lucky to have her! She told us the special on Tuesday was the fried chicken! My husband ordered that and he was not disappointed!. Fried zucchini to die for and the cabbage is at another level. I had the fried shrimp with mango sauce and the chips and cheese sauce, Coleen brought extra salsa! Ambiance a bit rough but they are updating the main area, so progress is always good! You must go here! read more

We come for the fried pickles. It's a signature appetizer. We moved to NMB in 2021 and during that time we searched the Grand Strand for the best southern fried pickles, and hands down Captain Archie's won. Yes, sadly I write this review in past tense, someone messed with the pickle recipe, gasp. The batter was reminiscent of grandma's chicken fried batter, the pickles were fried to perfection and the batter had the right crispy perfection, color and texture. Now, the pickles look and taste like every other restaurant in town, just blah, the batter has zero flavor of its own, just tastes like oil it was fried in which isn't great. The pickles don't have the same crunch; I don't know if this is a result of the new batter mix, but the fried pickles just aren't the same. Bring back the original fried pickle recipe Captain Archie's, don't mess with perfection to save a buck or go gluten free. Try that on another appetizer. All that said, we love Captain Archie's for the outdoor ambience, people, and bikes. The staff are great. Please... bring back Captain Archie's Southern Fried Pickles. Someone needs to right a country song about this and sing it from CA stage. Thanks for listening to my suggestion, love you CA's. read more

Great vibe, the place is on the waterfront, live entertainment with plenty of drinks, to be fair I was told the food is pretty good here, but I didn't taste anything since I only stopped for drinks and entertainment, the service by the the bartender was friendly and helpful. Hope to return to try their food sometime on the near future read more

This place has a fun atmosphere. There was a band but we sat in a room away from the main bar area where the band was. I had the shrimp Quesadilla and it was delicious. My friend had the burger. It was just ok and he described it as a good greasy bar burger. The other people in our party seemed to enjoy their food. Parking was a little tricky. We circled twice but did find a spot. Happy hour is very popular there. It was too chilly to sit outside but that would be great there. Service was friendly and fast read more

I would call this place an off-the-beaten-path gem. A lot of locals, a mix of young and older adults, and plenty of space to spread out if you want a more personal spot. I wish I had taken pictures. The menu and specials were great. Lots to choose from with pretty reasonable pricing considering the cuisine. I had the shrimp quesadilla. The shrimp were large and cooked very well. The ingredients tasted great and I was very happy. Our table shared an order of grilled fish bites. They were also cooked well and come with a great remoulade sauce. Our waitress seemed a little disappointed in her job. Moved without purpose and didn't have much personality. She wasn't rude or unprofessional. She just wasn't as good as a server usually is expected. Overall the food is worth a return and the ambiance is great. We will return to try the other selections on the menu. I'm looking forward to the next visit. I suggest you give this place a try, if you are in the area. read more

went there with a gift card that my wife and I received from a friend I man who says he was one of the owners came to my table and said the gift card was fraudulent then had a bad attitude towards me then he sat down at our table across from me and my wife and refused to leave even after I asked him he then tried to provoke me into a fight he called me names and refused to leave I'm a 62 yr old man this was the most ridiculous encounter I have ever had dinning out I do not recommend this place to anyone read more

Archie's looks great. Their renovation is a great success lots more room and just overall more comfortable. The food is always been good. Ambience is what you get at a place like Archie's. I enjoy it. read more

Great local spot on the ICW. Good option for lunch or dinner. Live music completes the experience. read more

Great atmosphere with lots of outdoor dining. The crab legs and shrimp were my favorite. I wouldn't order the chips and salsa again read more

It's a neat place, just Bar Food nothing great to speak of. It's a bit overpriced, could use a better draft selection. Burger patties are small and probably cook from frozen, chicken is flat grilled, and fries are very small and crunchy. read more

Great bar! It was packed last night. Lucked out and got two seats at the bar. Excellent band (Whiskey Run), good food, and reasonable prices. Lots of cool decked out bikes and trucks. Lots of interesting people! Had a great time. read more

Went there on 3/9/25 very crowded and the music was too loud service was good but couldn't stay to eat because of the noise very loud place

If you want booze in your drink better bring a flask. Had 3 rum runners and not even a buzz. $8 a piece! Noticed everyone was drinking shots and now know why. Place is cool, exactly what a place on the water should be except no booze in the drinks! read more

Awesome indoor outdoor bar. Plenty of fans, televisions seating, and a huge bar. Great menu great prices. Live music stage. Come early for that. It's a little crowded. Parking is awesome. Plenty of room. Definitely a fun hang out. read more

You gotta know what you're getting into before you go - this is a family restaurant merged with a biker bar. No one seats you so it's first come first serve. So go early or prepare to stalk tables. Now that's clear, this place has dynamite food and music. We were a bigger group so did not get in the main room, but was just beyond so could still hear the music. Our server was wonderful, fried seafood was so good and everyone was in a celebration mode since it was Friday after Christmas. Probably easier in the summer with outside open but I'm looking forward to going again! No pictures, the food was inhaled! read more

We like the food, a lot to choose from. We Like the live bands as well, a good time, when they're playing.

Really fun place with great blackened fish tacos! Great band and perfect large patio space for listening to the band. Parking.., plan to walk but not so bad! read more
