    It's just a bar. If you want to go to a bar that's just a bar. Go to Doc's. You will enjoy it. We had a bar tender named Bamma. He was great. But, no tap.

    Nick the bumper pool champion.

    Bumper pool champions 2011. Doc's is a legendary Tybee hangout. Classic dive bar ambiance. If you want to experience Tybee like the locals, you'll go to Doc's.

    Doc's Bar was the highlight of my night in Tybee Island. Doc's is the oldest bar on the island established in 1948. It is absolutely a dive, but the bar was clean and the service was great! What I loved the most about Doc's were the jello shots. I saw a sign outside advertising $2, jello shots and that's what brought me through the front door. Some regulars quickly started chatting with me and made me feel right at home. One regular told me there was a good band playing that night and that I should come back and check it out. My niece and I visited several other bars near the beach that night, but we came back to Doc's several times for more jello shots LOL. And the regular was right, the band was awesome! Back to the jello shots. My niece and I quickly realized jello shots are a thing in Tybee Island. All of the local bars sell jello shots. We tried them in one other bar as they were giving everyone a free one when you came in the door. But no one could top Doc's! My favorites were the pineapple and lime! You must try them! Doc's does not sell food but they will give you some trail mix if you ask. And the regulars told me you can bring food in and eat it as they don't mind.

    Got a double jack and coke here before the ghost tour, it was super strong. Quick solid bang for the buck if you are just stopping by!

    Been here twice. The most missable negative bartenders I've ever encountered. Will never come back.

    Excellent service, food and cocktails!…read more Parking is adequate but not ample. (Don't try to park your Super C in the lot :) The bar and dining area are in a sort of ramada with curtains. If you're there in cold weather, position yourself in front of one of the blasting electric space heaters. I was there in January and didn't pay much attention to the outdoor seating, but did notice some fun-looking transparent geodesic dome tent-like thingies you can sit in. I had raw local oysters, falafel bites, and nachos. The oysters were fresh, chilled and served with interesting condiments. The falafel was sizzling hot and served with delicious tzatziki. I opted for South African sausage on the nachos and they were an interesting dining experience: made with sturdy potato chips instead of tortilla chips. The best part? The margaritas! I've been traveling around the Deep South for a month now and they are by far the best I've found.

    I know this place has a very high rating but I'm sorry we didn't get that during our latest visit…read moreon 5-8-26. Yes, latest visit since we also visited June 2025, and gave that visit a 4 star. Let me say there were several issues during this visit. First, they didn't have a common beer available, claiming they ran out of Corona. Now it is a Friday night and you're going into the weekend without one of the most popular beers - just crazy. Next I ordered the Low Country Boil, well after a few minutes another person comes to me as says they have no potatoes for the meal and offered extra sausage to make up the meal. I accepted that. When my meal came out, the server now tells me they owe me 2 more pieces of corn and they would quickly bring that to me. Guess what - never got them. The two pieces I did get were cold - I mean not fully boiled/cooked. Icy cold inside. Now we were with several other couples and one couple had to ask for their drinks a second time. Fact is their meal came out before their first drinks. I have to also mention the men's rooms. I was clearly hadn't been checked or cleaned in a while. Now let's face it, it got screwed up due to nasty guests, but staff really need to check it every so often. Folks I visit Tybee twice a year and there are plenty of options on the island. I think the Zunibar has lost my future business, as well as the 3 other couples we were with. If you choose here you have been warned. I hope you have a better visit.
