Creek Ratz is ok. The parking lot was packed. He dropped me off. The bar was packed, so we sat at a table. The chair and the table were wobbly. The table so much, that when she put my drink down, she spilled a lot of it. Luckily they have a lot of napkins (a napkin dispense) on the table. We both ordered the grilled chicken salad grilled cheese. It was very good. I got French fries and he got tater tots. If you see me there , stop by and say Hello. read more

Amazing food! Our server and bartender Onna did an excellent job and the drinks were great. Highly recommended this place.

We were looking for a new to us restaurant for lunch and decided to try Creek Ratz. We have passed this many times over the years but had never stopped in. The food was really good. My wife ordered a Rueben and fries, and she enjoyed it. I ordered a blackened fish taco with tater tots. It was very good. It's a very casual restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. We chose to sit outside, which is a nice view and overlooks the inlet. The service was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back. read more

This was the best shrimp we had while here. Nice crispy perfectly done fry's, and the waitress was awesome...

Awesome atmosphere. Would be great for day drinking. Great service. Cold beer. Food was bad. 1lb shrimp - overcooked which made them hard to peel and very mushy. Crabcake was not enough meat and bad flavor. Tater tot's were burnt. Come here to drink and have fun. Don't come here and spend money on food. read more

Creek Ratz - Back porch - American Near Me - Murrells Inlet, South Carolina

Our first time in Murrells inlet and we loved it! We chose to eat on the patio next to the water. I typically don't like to eat outside but there was plenty of shade. Nice soft music playing and a perfect breeze. The food was wonderful. I recommend the crab stuffed mushrooms and the creek rat Reuben. My husband is a chicken salad connoisseur and said the chicken salad melt was comeback worthy. Our waitress, Taylor, was so nice and very attentive. I told her it was our first time here and she told us about the area. read more

It was a local bar. It was cute. It was clean. I liked that there's live music and I like the covered patio but that room is much larger than interior. Bathroom is like being inside a crate lol but it was clean. Food is bar food. Nothing earth shattering but the staff was great. Attentive helpful and fast. read more

Thursday night dinner w/cousin & sister. Chose it because of the name (A bit of insanity; I understand your confusion.) Outside tables were on a wait, but we were seated in about 15 min. It took about 10 min for us to be greeted by our server, Addy, and our drink orders taken. However, once we got Addy, she was wonderful - attentive, knowledgeable of the menu, the area, and food combinations. She's what made this a 4-star and not a 3-star review. Cousin chose the Carolina salad, blue cheese and honey mustard vinaigrette on the side. Sister and I split the Jerk flounder platter with a side salad, and an order of sweet potato fries. I also ordered a cup of the Murrells Inlet Clam Chowder. Hush puppies were brought to the table before the meal, and they were good, just not what we're used to. Sweet potato fries had a cinnamon sugar dusting and came with a side of honey mustard dressing at Addy's suggestion. GREAT taste I never would have combined. Kudos! Jerk flounder was thin, had lots of butter, and very little Jerk. Definitely a "don't bother." Very disappointed; was so looking forward to the Jerk. The clam chowder, however, is listed as Manhattan style but it was SO much tastier than that, with less veggies and lots of Italian seasoning. Skip the cup and get the bowl. Skipped dessert for ice cream elsewhere. Check out was quick. If you find yourself at Creek Ratz, ask for Addy. read more

DO NOT EAT here, from the service to the food this was the most regrettable decision of our trip to Murrells Inlet. My family and I came here a few years ago and thought we would give it another try. I'm not one to complain however everything was terrible. I could go on and one about how our experience went however I would much rather never speak about this restaurant again. If ever a zero was appropriate this is it. read more

Jen is the main reason I go there beside the food very friendly and always on point great service

Great atmosphere and staff...can't beat the view, the music and food for the price..........

Gotta love Jen on the bar! She's friendly, fun, and a really great bartender also. We come every week to hang with her!

My family decided to go here for dinner after arriving at our beach house. I'm glad it was the first place we went because the other places we went to throughout the week were much better. My dad, sister, and I shared two of the shrimp baskets. They were fine, but the sweet potato fries weren't as good as I would have hoped. My mom loved the quesadilla though. They also had cheap beer. The live music was what really made this a place I wouldn't go to again. It was so loud that our waitress couldn't hear us when we needed something. Overall, the food was just ok and the ambiance was horrible. There are lots of other places to go to nearby, so skip this place. read more

Second time just stopped by and again great service and staff. Thank you McKenzie. For making our last day and my daughters birthday so special. read more

Oysters were muddy and had a bug in it. The server was supposedly "unable" to take the oysters off or even void a transaction in order to not charge me for the oysters that I did not eat due to the fact that they were disgusting. I also then had to still go get dinner and pay for that since I could not eat the food here. I called to speak to a manager and they were too busy to speak to me. As a server myself, I give leeway with this kind of stuff, but I will never be coming back here knowing that she could have voided the transaction because that is a very simple thing to do. I have never been anything but disappointed with this place and will absolutely tell people to steer clear of read more

We really enjoyed our lunch at Creek Ratz! The view was fantastic at the outside tables. Our server Alley was great, very nice and attentive. The fried flounder and shrimp were both good, not too greasy, not too breaded. The real star was the sweet potato fries, which come with a cinnamon sugar topping. I've never had them like this, seems like it should be stated in the menu, but it was a welcome surprise. The only negatives were the regular fries (they were ok, seemed like frozen shoestring fries) and the hush puppies (very small and bland). Overall we enjoyed and would come back again! read more

Lindsay and Adrienne were absolutely amazing! Great service, efficient, and friendly!! They went above and beyond for their customers!

Came here on October 10th with a friend of mine who lives in Myrtle Beach and said it was a good place to eat . All the years that I have visited Myrtle Beach area , I had never been to Murrells Inlet , so it was about time . Anyway , we were seated right away and we requested outside . Our table was a little too close to the stage , but the place was busy so we didn't have much choice . The music at first wasn't that loud where we could still have a conversation , but after the singer took a break , it was louder than before , so we ended up leaving to walk the boardwalk and take pictures . We started with the Fried Pickles and I have had them before and usually not too impressed with them , but these tasted a little better than most and came with ranch . I got the Pepperoni and Sausage Pizza and she got Shrimp and Grits . I was really surprised how good the pizza was ! The sauce was spot on , the crust was a little puffy and soft , the pepperoni was tasty and I liked them better than the sausage which wasn't bad though . She really liked her Shrimp and Grits and said they are one of the more popular dishes served here . I liked the vibe of the restaurant and it was clean and the employees were very nice . Nothing beats Southern Hospitality . I get many compliments at my job in Las Vegas because of me giving great service with Southern Hospitality . It shows when you were raised that way . I would definitely recommend coming here , but get a table away from the stage . read more

The place is cute and has nice outdoor, semi and full indoor. The service was a wreck but I was told this is not the normal. She was pleasant but explained she was up until 2am. Very mixed up, never got the pickles or poppers. There was no soups of the day. The food was good, fish buffs was very nice, the fish sandwiches we light and delicious. The Tri basked was good but only 3 oysters. I had the blackened. Sweat potato fries has cinnamon on it but not terrible. You must get a side order of hush puppies for all to share. The 3 you get on a few dishes is not enough. We were a party of six with 3 checks. Funny thing is we are all fro NY and would have given 20% but the service sucked Overall a nice place for a quick bit and a view of the boardwalk. Come with low expectations and you will not be disappointed. read more

Love the atmosphere outside and the live music! We were able to get seated right away for a large group outside on a Thursday evening around 5:30pm. We brought our dog as well. The view over the marsh is beautiful. Live music started around 7pm. I ordered the fried chicken tenders with French fries. My husband ordered the Buffalo chicken pizza. We also tried the mozzarella sticks. The hush puppies were yummy. I also really liked the Buffalo chicken on the pizza. The mozzarella sticks were super yummy and came out quickly. Our food took about an hour to be served. When it came out, two of 8 meals did not come out at the same time. The final meals took another 10 minutes to come out. This is not typical service for Creek Ratz though. We think there was an issue with staffing or the kitchen. The restaurant didn't charge us for one of the meals that came out after everyone else's. read more

Amazing food and amazing customer service!! service was fast ! I will be comming back everyone was so kind .

If you are a local or passer by creek rats is a definite stop! The views of the inlet, summer time music, shag beach music nostalgia of what Myrtle beach area used to be! Food never disappoints, view delivers and the staff and top notch!!! Make sure you make the stop get some great food, walk the inlet and enjoy a family fun time!!! read more

This place is a great place to go listen to some live music and to have a few drinks with your friends and yes it's kid friendly. Our server was very friendly as well, but she was slammed. It was obvious that they're either very unorganized or need to hire additional help. If I were grading on the food alone, I would have only given three stars. If you're really hungry, don't go here because it could take at least 90 to two hours to get your food. read more

Holy YUM! Fish taco - Amazin! And sweet potato Fries EXTRA EXTRA crispy... score! Brilliant. Super service toop

We have been eating at this place for years but yesterday was sorely disappointed in the quality of the food. We ordered hot dogs for the kids, one without a bun and one with a bun. Both hotdogs are severely overcooked and the bun was rock hard. We also ordered a Reuben sandwich, which was also overcooked, dried out and inedible. On the bright side, the chicken tenders were tasty, made right and were a decent sized portion. The atmosphere was great, complete with a singer playing modern country songs. After going there for over 15 years, I am not sure we will go back. read more

Did open seating at outdoor bar to be able to see live music. The outside bar has 10 chairs at the bar. A center table with 6-8 chairs and 2 high tops. We were lucky enough to get one of the high tops. The center table and bar were packed, would have been an hour wait if we hadn't found the table. Drank a few beers while waiting for music to start. Bartender was great. Ordered the shrimp basket. Shrimp 8/10 fries 5/10. Hushpuppies were small but good. Loved the band if birds could fly read more

I have been coming to Creek Ratz for years. They have some of the best bartenders at the marsh walk. But lately, the good bartenders are given the slow shifts. They have people that don't know what they're doing working often on the busiest times of the year. I think there was actually a trainee working on witches night, one of the biggest nights of the year Seems like you would have the best bartenders like Jenn, Adrian and Lindsay work during busy times. They wait on you quickly with a smile and have the best personality. They are the reason I come to Creek Ratz. I'd hate to take my business elsewhere. And please put live entertainment on the website!! read more

Couple beers and lunch. Manhattan Clam Chowder......yea! Very good and get this, crackers weren't stale. A big plus for me. Hubby had the fish sandwich and liked it.

YUMMMMM!!!! What did I have? Crab stuffed mushrooms and peel'n'eat shrimp, and some of my friend's hush puppies!!!! HEAVEN! Jordan was a great waitress. The only recommendations: crab stuffed mushrooms were breaded and fried. I took the breading off. Lose the breading! They will taste better and it will cost u less. Also, shrimp was slightly overlooked. Luv u, though! read more

We were in Myrtle Beach for a few days and the bartender at our hotel said we should check out Murrell's Inlet for some good seafood so we headed that way and managed to find Creek Ratz. The street was packed and there was an open parking spot right up front so we decided to take the chance. Overall the food was ok. The fried shrimp was good and the clam chowder was ok but the nachos we ordered as an appetizer were terrible. I know you're probably thinking, "what kind of psychopath orders nachos at a seafood restaurant?" My girlfriend is that kind of psychopath. They came out with fried chicken on them which I thought was odd considering it came with chili as well. To top it off, the nachos showed up after our meals did. The outside section had a great view of the marsh. It was a beautiful day out and there was a nice breeze so we asked to sit outside. If you don't like birds hovering over you at all times trying to steal pieces of food then I'd definitely recommend sitting inside. read more
