We ate here for breakfast and the food is delicious!! The service was fast and friendly. The crab cake eggs Benedict was perfect! The food is well seasoned and you get a lot for your money. My husband had the steak and eggs and pancakes and he said it was well made. I highly recommend this establishment. read more

So happy to find this place. Great corned beef hash, coffee, and customer service. Food is fresh and tasty. Nice atmosphere and decor too. Will definitely come back the next time I'm in Myrtle Beach. read more

Absolutely fabulous. Ate everything but the plate. I had the big boy which was awesome and my wife had a full stack of blueberry pancakes. Would definitely recommend read more

Enjoyed the food and atmosphere was great. Servers were great... Great coffee... Spinach & tomato eggs benidict were awesome just needed a little salt on the spinach and without a doubt the tomatoes to bring the natural flavor out read more

Great food, prices and service. Good variety on menu. Have had breakfast as well as lunch. Early Riser Diner never disappoints.

Great find in Myrtle Beach . Fast service, good food will return again. Not crowed in a small shopping center.

Food is always delicious and staff is so friendly. My favorite dish is the philly omelette but everything we have is great, my kids love it too. read more

Very good food and prices great Staff not very friendly,waitress never Checked on us nor offered any refills read more

Mediocre experience. Blueberry pancakes and scrambled eggs. My boyfriend got chicken fried steak and grits and eggs. He liked his food. My pancakes were so dense I couldn't even come close to finishing. Flavor was fine. Nothing remarkable about any of it. Server was nice. It was quite cold inside. The bathroom floor was incredibly sticky which gave me a gross feeling. Overall not a bad experience. Fine for the money but not memorable. read more

Been there a few times, the food is always good but the service isn't... Even when its slow, the service isn't good... Went at about 9-9:30ish there were only a few tables and the sever took our order, brought our food, and never came back... We didn't get a refill till we got our check... I had a coffee that I finished less than halfway through my meal, I left my cup on the edge of that table because most servers know that this means a refill is needed, our sever walked by the table 3 times before asking if we wanted refills, and brought the bill with the refills... most servers in a restaurant check on you at least once to make sure your food is right but our server basically brought the food and disappeared... I do like the food and its close to were I live so it's convenient but the service is terrible... read more

Friendly service, slower than the average restaurant. The pancakes were amazing. The rest of the food was just average. We had the golfers breakfast and a English muffin breakfast sandwich, I wasn't very thrilled with the English muffin but I think there was effort put into everything made. read more

My wife and I ate here last week based on the good reviews and because it is a neighborhood restaurant. My wife had the Golfer Special and I had the Crab Eggs Benedict, it was delicious and we will be back (not soon enough) . I have no hesitation in recommending this place the food was great, the service quick (but not overly friendly) and the restaurant was clean. I/we look forward to our next visit real soon! read more

Well, we've visited 4 times in 3 days between my husband and I! New favorite local spot - great breakfast and lunches, made fresh and to order. Philly omlette is a favorite, as well as the patty melt. GREAT addition to Carolina Forest! read more

Quick service ultra clean friendly and great food. We found this hidden gem after visiting the vet next door. Can't miss with the home feel of the staff read more

Delicious! My husband and I like to eat at restaurants off the beaten path. The Early Riser is not to be missed. I had the crab cakes Benedict and my husband had the homemade hash Benedict. Both were excellent. We also had to try a pancake after reading other reviews. I'm not a big pancake person, but the pancake was delicious. We will definitely go back. read more

The staff whom I assume are the owners are really great with their customers and you can tell they get regulars every morning. Place is rustic and cute and let's get to it the good we had he pork chops and the big boy breakfast both were delicious. Recommended!. read more

Quick and yummy! Too stingy to give 5 stars but there wasn't an issues. I had the special chicken fried steak and eggs with crunchy hash browns and rye toast. Disgusted to say I ate it all. read more

Okay so yes, my friend took me here for breakfast the morning I left. Absolutely incredible. I mean you talk about an great breakfast. I am a huge lover of eggs benedict. When I opened the menu there they were the POTUS of all breakfasts the eggs benedict. My friend tried to sell me on other breakfasts. Im like No way. I got the Crabcake Benedict and let me tell you it was AMAZING! MAJOR DELISH! The Hollandaise was perfect on top of a perfectly prepared poached egg and beautiful Lump Crabcakes. The home fries were cooked perfectly!! Yeah and how about the PRICE 8.95 FOR TWO CRABCAKE BENEDICTS come on where are you gonna find that and it be good! Get there quickly and get ready for a real breakfast experience. They are also from Jersey the land of good diners! read more

Great food. Quick service. great prices. It's a few miles from the beach but well worth the few minutes drive. Not crowded and reasonably priced. Not giving 5 stars because they don't take Amex. read more

Sooo delicious. Food comes out quick. Highly recommend for both breakfast and lunch! Me and my girlfriend stop in here at least once a week for food. read more

I've been searching for a local "ma & pa" diner and was very happy with Early Riser. The owner waited on our table and was extremely friendly. The food was fresh and cooked perfectly. And the prices were very reasonable for the amount of food you get. Awesome place to go for good food in a relaxed atmosphere. We'll be going back often. read more

The service was friendly and quick. We enjoyed our food; eggs were perfect and all items were hot and made just as ordered. I would come here again in a second! read more

Great family owned diner! Nice atmosphere and clean. Food was excellent! Coffee could have been a little hotter but it tasted great. I also prefer grill fried home fries instead of the offered deep fried. Everyone in our group of 6 were all greatly satisfied. We will visit again. The map on Yelp doesn't show the correct location. It is located in the Food Lion shopping center. read more

I found this place Sunday morning on yelp. So I decided to check it out. Wow! All I can say is if you like a good cup coffee this is your place. Kona coffee, Kona coffee, if you've never a cup of this coffee shame on you. I would go here just for the coffee. The place is very cute inside with booths and tables and a small bar where you can sit and eat. It's opened for breakfast and lunch. And the service is wonderful. I went there Sunday morning and enjoyed it so much I brought a friend with me on Monday. Sunday I had the pork chops and eggs and hash browns with cinnamon toast and of course many cups of coffee. Which is pretty reasonable @ 1.99 with refills. The chops were 2 thin cut loin chops on the bone. The cost was 7.95 which is cheaper than most places I know with regular tasting coffee. I noticed they served homemade hash so I decided when I return I would order it. I returned Monday with a friend of mine who also like a good hash and we both decided to order it. This is one of the best corned beef hash I've had at any breakfast place from Myrtle Beach to Florida. You can actually taste the corned beef in it. It's so full of flavor and once again cheaper than any other places I've been to in myrtle beach. This is definitely a must stop place for breakfast if you enjoy a great cup of coffee and delicious food for a very reasonable price. I also noticed they serve a poached eggs on a lump meat crab cakes. I asked about it and they said it was a very popular item. And I could tell because at least 2 tables had ordered them. I believe the price was less than $10. Once again this place is about 6miles from 501, but definitely worth the trip. read more

Early Riser Diner - Pork chops and eggs with home fries and cinnamon toast! - Diners Near Me - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

See all

The patty melt and the tuna melt are my favorite. The fruit cup is fresh, juicy fruit. Great spot!!

early riser diner was a great experience! the workers were nice and the food was great! i recommend.

Great place, had breakfast there, very good. The pancakes where light and fluffy. The golfers special fills you up. I don't think anyone would have could give a bad review. Lunches look good I know we will be back to try one of their sandwiches . read more

Wonderful little breakfast joint. We loved the atmosphere and the service was very prompt and attentive. Good for kids too. Seems like a lot of locals come here and it's a little off the beaten path, which are pluses. I ordered the sweet potato/pecan pancakes. Wow-- big portions and high quality! read more

Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. Delicious!! Try to find a new breakfast restaurant each visit and this is it!! Always save French toast and pancakes for the last day we're here. They were great. read more

Have been wanting to try this place since it opened. Awesome little Diner. Great service, food, atmosphere, and the price is good too. Highly recommend. Will be back. read more

Very good food, and nice service. Parking can get tight but its an awesome place! The restaurant is cozy and small so make sure you go early because it can get pretty busy. Overall I would recommend this place to friends and family! read more

Have been there numerous times. Mainly good food, French toast is different (doesn't taste like it's been dipped in eggs), Belgium waffles are delicious. Coffee is best I've had around. Mostly friendly staff. Nice atmosphere, clean. Not a NY/NJ diner but close for breakfast food only. read more

Started off my experience there by looking at a menu that was half printed and half sharpie, we were there at noon and we were the only ones in the restaurant. That should have been a good indication that I shouldn't be eating here, but I decided to give it the old college try anyways. I can honestly say I've had better food from a McDonald's drive through. The omelet was about a 50/50 mix of cheese and egg. With cold gravy on the side, and a frozen has brown patty. That's not nearly the quality of food I expect from an actual sit down restaurant. I would not recommend this place at all. read more

Great breakfast- Wife had the Polish Special with kielbasa and I had the Irish Benedict. Hollandaise sauce and home made hash were excellent. Will try them for lunch. read more
