Quick friendly service, great buffet. If Mr. Phillips is in the house they will run out of Beacon.

Four of us visited this morning and had a nice breakfast! We chose to order from the menu which did indeed save us a few bucks! Glad we did as I am not much of a fan for the morning buffets ! The restaurant was packed with customers and by the time we left, there was a line out the door by about a dozen folks. We all agree that we would return another time when in the mood for a good breakfast! read more

Home cooked food. The cakes/pies made fresh! Breakfast is absolutely delicious!! Great friendly service.

My Uber driver told me this was the best breakfast buffet in town. Ten minutes later, I found myself here. I got here at a good time because there was no wait! There is no waiting area, so you have to line up outside if there's already one party inside. I opted for the breakfast buffet ($15.99 per adult), and it was marvelous. I can't really eat much for breakfast, but I enjoyed all the fresh fruits: watermelon, canteloupe, honeydew, grapefruit, grapes, strawberries, etc. Too bad coffee is not included in the buffet. The corned beef hash and French toast were most notable to me. Service was ok. You have to ask the server for the bill, and then you bring it to the counter to pay. They sell merch like T-shirts and magnets. Bathroom available. No Wifi. Credit card accepted. read more

We love coming here. Especially for the breakfast food. Yummy buffet. Super impressed with the fresh fruit section. Only 1 negative is the hashbrowns are soggy. Not much Crispiness to them. read more

Standard buffet fare. If you're looking for a heavy breakfast this is it. Biscuits are good.

Food was blah. We opted to order from the menu instead of the buffet. Not keen on small children raking thru the food. So we ordered two biscuits with sausage and one with country ham and cost us 30.00 .. read more

We enjoyed our breakfast at Mammy's. It's in a great location in Myrtle Beach. We were able to walk from our resort. They had a cute and simple breakfast buffet which allowed us to quickly eat and transition back to vacation mode. They had healthy options to more hearty options on the menu including all the traditional items you'd expect. The price was good for the options as well. The service team were friendly and attentive. I'd recommend to check them out if you're looking for a hearty, fast casual breakfast option. read more

This was my first time here. I went for the buffet, but it was $16+ and it was heavy on the meat items. I ended up ordering off the menu. The poached eggs were hard boiled and the toast and hash browns were cold. I'm not a fan of establishments charging more when you use a credit card, although it is becoming more commonplace. The service was good. read more

Great food, great service . The atmosphere was family oriented . Looking around as we enjoyed our meals, everyone seemed pleased with their orders. read more

The best breakfast location on the grand strand. The buffet is always stock with fresh items small batches and I think that is why it is such a great value for the money. The eggs are light and fluffy and the homemade biscuits are spot on. I highly recommend this place after multiple visits it continues to be consistent and the service by all the staff is just outstanding! Even the cooks welcome you while fulling the Buffet with frequent fresh small batches. read more

I've been coming to Myrtle Beach since I was kid in the 70's and 80's and my family never ate breakfast at Mammy's ! When I got older and moved away from the east coast I still came home to the Carolinas every 2 to 3 years and still I had heard about this place and how you would sometimes have to wait in line outside for it. Well , that is something I don't care to do. But anyway , I finally came here on September 21st and it was well worth it and I didn't have to wait in line. When I was leaving though there were a few people waiting outside to get in , so I guess I had good timing. I was seated right away and ordered coffee. The buffet line was filled with a pretty good selection. The first thing you see is fresh fruit and let me tell you , you have to get the Strawberries. They were so good and fresh. I live in Las Vegas and we get those California Strawberries and they don't have half the flavor these did , must be all the GMO. I also got a slice of Cantaloupe , a slice of Pear , and a slice of Peach. Now to the main items. I got Grits , Biscuit and Gravy , Sausage Patty and Sausage Link , Scrambled Eggs with Peppers , Corn Beef Hash , and the Strawberries the first plate. The Grits were thick and good like I like them. The Scrambled Eggs were good. I liked the Sausage Patty better than the Sausage Link. The Corn Beef Hash I didn't care for. Biscuit and Gravy was good , but mine are better of course. The Strawberries as I said were great and I got more on my second plate. On my 2nd plate I tried a Pancake with Strawberry Syrup with pieces of Strawberry in it and more Grits and some fruit. The Pancakes were pretty good and fluffy. The price is really reasonable and that is why it's probably been in business so long. From my understanding they been in business since 1953 and I'm sure they will be here many years to come. read more

We try to visit Mammy's each time we come to the beach. Mammy's has a good menu selection as well as a breakfast buffet. There are a lot of items to choose from on the buffet but it is a little pricey for me. That's because I don't eat that much but you are a heavy eater it may be worth the price. We order from the menu and our food has always been very good. Mammy's has been a staple at the beach for many years. The restaurant is clean and inviting and the service is good. read more

We had excellent service, good food and no wait time at Mammy's. Even with a group of seven! Our server was very friendly and attentive. Great spot for a family breakfast read more

Great buffet style! You can order off the menu if you want! Very good choices! Love it!

A good place for breakfast or brunch, with an extensive buffet available; good food and cook to order menu available. Great central downtown Myrtle Beach location, with plenty of parking. Nice clean restaurant with good service. read more

The food is good and the service was as well. We ate here twice on our week long vacation.

This place has been here serving the area since 1953. Definitely looks like an ole style diner outside but they have kept up the inside. Food is simple, yet good. We order our eggs over-medium well. This is not easy for most places but they got it perfect! There was also a buffet available but we opted for ordering simple. Otherwise we would have eaten too much. Hahaha. Coffee was great our server was thorough and kept our glass, mugs full. We wanted to go again but the next day line was around the corner. We will definitely be back. Purchased a couple t-shirts as gifts. read more

It gave exactly what it's supposed too. Old school home cooking. Service was great! Definitely going back next time we are in town!

A decent breakfast buffet. Nothing fancy... They have the typical scrambled eggs, hash browns , biscuits, gravy, sausage, bacon, and a lot of fruits. It did seem a little pricey, but it is a tourist town. read more

Great breakfast buffet , the fruits were ripe and delicious , happens to search a breakfast spot ( so many in MB ) this one is a must return

Great food could not go to the buffet bar but once the food was amazing. Check out the videos and photos great pics. read more

Mammy's has been a local diner, open since 1952-3 in the middle of the "tourist trap" part of Myrtle Beach and surrounded by dozens of other breakfast, pancake and waffle houses, so they must be doing something right. We were in Myrtle Beach the week of Thanksgiving Week and enjoyed Mammy's so much, we ate breakfast there twice. The buffet is plain ol' Southern fabulous. The restaurant was busy on Wednesday and much busier on Friday. Most notably, the fresh fruit (watermelon, oranges and grapefruit) was sweet and juicy. All breakfast items were hot, fresh and constantly replenished. Particularly notable items were the special egg scramble, homemade biscuits, fluffy pancakes with heated syrup, seasoned home fries, hash browns and the LINK SAUSAGES. Truly an establishment that caters to the old school "Southern taste". read more

We walked in and the hostess stood up from a booth chewing the end of her hoodie tie. Speaking around the hoodie tie still in her mouth she asked "2". I said yes. She took us to a table and dropped menus. She turned and left. I said thank you, but she did not respond. The waitress came by and got drinks. When she came back we ordered. Food came quickly. We ate. I am a slow eater and I also share with the Hubby so i had his plate in the middle to eat some hashbrowns since he was done instead of putting on my small BLT plate. The server comes by and starts picking it up...BIG PEEVE OF MINE ASK BEFORE TAKING MY PLATE...I said I am still eating that. The inside seems ok, looks like carpet could use a cleaning. Most people were getting the Breakfast buffet bar. It looked like it had a lot of options for a decent price. Overall it was a meh experience. read more

Came here on a bad hangover morning and instantly relieved me. Will always be my go to breakfast buffet.

Nice breakfast buffet for a decent price. Service is quick and friendly, the decor is definitely diner. Standouts on the buffet were the fresh fruits, the biscuits and sausage gravy, and the scrambled eggs, which tasted like real eggs, not the powdered stuff you find on many buffets. Great bacon and a VERY generously sized Mimosa topped it all off. We will be back. read more

The food is just what you'll need after some fun filled days at the beach. Try the breakfast buffet! That was our choice today, and it didn't disappoint. I can't believe they have bacon on the bar! It's fantastic. The waitress was attentive and very efficient. She was busy but still made time to do quick check-ins on us. There are a lot of people here, but everyone looks like they're enjoying their meals. It is a beat place to have breakfast for sure. They keep the tables clean and move a lot of people thru. I would definitely come back. Also, there are plenty of fruit choices at the breakfast bar. Coffee was brewed well, too. read more

Service was good, no wait to be seated or to get drinks. Breakfast buffet was ok, but in my opinion, a bit overpriced. Buffet anywhere from $1-$5 over what regular menu items are with a lot less food, soooo... Considering the place is so close to the beach, price is not as bad as it could be ($56 for 2 adult buffets w/coffee). The place is very dated, but I guess that's part of the "nostalgia". Had always wanted to try the place, now we have, so prob won't go back (it was good, just other places I'd rather go). It was just "meh"... read more

5/13/13: First time in SC & at this restaurant. We got there around 9:45 am & the line was out the door. It was packed. We got in and seated pretty quickly though, so that was cool. I had already checked Yelp and their menu ahead of time, so I knew I'd be ordering Chicken & Waffle. My friend got the buffet. The server was quick with the drink order, but I barely saw her anymore after that. My waffle was very bland and cold. The chicken breast had a good flavor to it, but I had to put a punch of salt on it to make it pop. I ended up taking most of my food to go. It was just too many people in there for me. My friend enjoyed the buffet for the most part because he's greedy and eats anything. He got seconds of the eggs and bacon. The bacon was soggy, but, again, he likes that. The food was just OK. Maybe the next time we go, I can update this review. read more

I have eaten breakfast at Mammy's several times and it's been great every time! Always get seated quickly and the food is always hot and the service is great! read more

Even though they were very busy it was great food and service we really did not wait long to be seated

The everything about that place is gross!! Food is bad! Service left a lot to be desired

We went to Mammy's twice in the five days we stayed there. The buffet had amazing prepped food, as well as fresh food options for my spouse and kids. I loved the pecan pancakes with smoked sausage! Never had anything like either. So amazing! One of my kids got their blueberry pancakes- filled with real, fresh blueberries! So delicious! The servers were wonderful, attentive, and oh so kind! read more

Our first stop when we got to Myrtle Beach. Mammys have been a staple for Myrtle Beach for a long time. Me and the kids had the breakfast buffet. It was a pretty decent size buffet. It was in two parts. Half of it was fresh fruits and the other half was hot foot. You can have all the bacon, sausage, eggs, corn beef has, grits, biscuit?gravy, and pancakes that you want! It was all pretty good not life changing. I would recommend stopping by and checking them out! read more

I ate here twice on my most recent trip to Myrtle Beach. It was in the off-season, and right when they opened, so it wasn't very busy at all. It's definitely an older building, but very clean on the inside and the staff is super friendly. Plentiful items on the buffet, the usual breakfast buffet fair. The bacon is extra crispy (how I like), and the French toast is quite tasty. They also have bountiful biscuits and gravy and corn beef hash if that's your thing. The eggs do taste fresh and not some weird bio engineered product. Only two items keep me from giving it five stars First, the price, with coffee it's a touch over $20 a person. I don't think that's crazy, but for breakfast it's pretty steep. It's very tough to eat anywhere near that amount of food to justify the cost imho. Maybe drop the coffee price from $4 to $2? Second, food temperature. I visited two days in a row, both when they first opened, both when the buffet was super fresh. At best everything was room temperature. I'm not super hard to please, and thankfully it was tasty enough, but I could see, as other reviewers have mentioned , the food temp being a little bit offputting. All in all, I would certainly recommend and return. If they could get the food temp correct, then the pricing piece may be a little bit more in order. Nobody likes paying for an expensive meal and it being room temperature. read more

This place is delicious! It's a cute diner with great waitstaff. Their prices are cheap/reasonable in my opinion. They have a breakfast buffet with everything breakfast you can imagine. I've never tried it but my family has and they liked it a lot. Tons of fruit on there too! I've been twice and both times got the Philly cheesesteak off the lunch menu (available after 11). First time I got half fries half onion rings. Second time only onions rings. The meat is shaved finely, the cheese melted throughout makes the fish have a creamy texture, and there's a perfect amount of peppers and onions. It's so friggin good I crave it on a weekly basis. They close at 2pm which I'm not a fan of, because I never make it in time to eat here, but it's a breakfast place so I get it. If you have a chance, give this place a try! read more

Cheap breakfast buffet but limited, food was just ok for me. Where buffet is located, it gets so crowded and hard to navigate because so many people all at one time. Getting back to your seat can be a slight challenge too. But for 13.99, can't expect too much. read more

We were visiting Myrtle Beach from Ohio and were looking for something close to home cooked. We found this mom and pop diner that had the wait line wrapped around the corner. We decided to get in line to wait. The wait time was about 10 minutes to our surprise. This restaurant didn't disappoint! We had a delicious home style breakfast from their breakfast bar! There were plenty of breakfast options that were fresh out the kitchen. My partner who is vegetarian had plenty of meatless options as well. The service was outstanding even though it was a busy Sunday morning. We will visit Mammys Kitchen every time we're vacationing in Myrtle Beach! read more
