    Carmel latte
    Darren N.

    I came during the offseason since my son's had a field trip in the area. One of the spots that you can get coffee later in the afternoon. They have lot of tybee items souvenirs to choose from. The Carmel latte was really good and everything was nice a clean. The guy that worked there was personable and was welcoming. Nice little spot

    This place is adorable! Outside there are ice cream cone seats, m and m figures, and several cute photo opportunities. Inside there's a bit of everything -- all sorts of jelly bean flavors and candies by the pound plus nostalgic candies and chocolates. Then there are the pastries and coffees. Oh, did I forget to say ice cream? This is the perfect snack place or after dinner "dessert" location. We wound up with some different candies, taffies, and jelly beans. Plus the gal working the counter was so nice and personable. We wound up having a long conversation, too. We came here first in the morning as this was the departure point for our historical tour of Tybee. My husband said the coffee was very good. We came back later for the sweets.

    The Sweetest spot on Tybee! Waiting for our island tour, we stopped in. I ordered a cup of some really Great coffee. As we lokk looked around we chatted with Angie, a superstar in customer service and a treasure drive of information. Candy, candy everywhere and even something to drink!

    Pop Rocks $10

    Just an overpriced tourist trap. One employee but it was not busy for a hot summer night. There is a nice variety of candies some of which were vintage candies like pop rocks, but very over priced. The decor does provide a good photo op for youngsters. It was on our list to visit but we will not be returning.

    What a great selection of candy and hard-scooped ice cream! The Sugar Shack has a fantastic atmosphere - complete with an outdoor seating area. The candy bag prices are a biiiit too high, but didn't stop us from loading up and getting great service with a smile at the counter.

    Cookies and cream (I usually don't get this flavor but they didn't have great options)

    So... everything here was just okay. I'm from a place that set the bar pretty high though and the south can't compete with the West Coast (it's only my opinion). They were super busy and based upon the time and day they're probably always busy (It's definitely a place for the locals). Most of the candy I bought I didn't like the texture, I felt like the guy in the white shirt was h*** and over charged me. I literally got a small cookies n'cream and a small bag of candy and paid $17. The price took me back but there was a lot going on so I just let it go because I knew I probably wouldn't be back anytime soon. The ice cream and sitting outside in a ice cream cone while I ate it was the best part. It's really a place that would make a child happy for sure and possibly take someone back to a childhood moment. They also reserve golf carts here and they all looked really nice but I believe the town shuts down early.

    I love it here. The drinks are really good. They have a lot of options and they're not too pricey…read moreand pretty strong. The food is kind of basic bar food, but four basic bar food. It's delicious. I got the spinach and artichoke dip which had tomato in it which I thought was interesting and it was delicious and then their cheese bites were also really good. They have this really delicious marinara sauce. The service was lovely and it's fun in there because it's just a bunch of fun like drink options they definitely have enough stuff for kids. They have plenty of food and even a nonalcoholic drink.

    What's a summer vacay without a little daiquiri or three? It's been a long time since I've been to…read moreWet Willie's but when we saw that it wasn't far from our Airbnb, we decided to head on over. This Wet Willie's isn't far from the beach and sits on the little Tybee Island strip. There were two other parties sitting and eating when we entered, so we just fell in line at another table. Only two of us were drinking so we headed to the bar. The young guy helping us wasn't super helpful, to be honest lol he seemed a little annoyed that we were asking questions and digging into the menu. When we asked questions, he answered but I would have loved to hear his favorites or any sort of recommendations. I opted for a combo that was super ugly but it worked! I was surprised that they also had food on the menu. If they offered food at other Wet Willie's that I've visited, I do not remember lol. This menu included some classic favorites such as wings, tacos and quesadillas. We tried all of the above as well as their sliders. The food was actually good. Maybe not Michelin star ready, but tasty! I appreciated that a gentleman, (who I assume is the manager) came by each table checking in on us and our experience. That always takes an experience to another level for me, so appreciated!

    Don't let the outside fool you. It did me last year, but this year we went ahead and tried it…read more Sundae Cafe is wedged between a liquor store and a convenience store, this is apparently a thing on Tybee island. What you find inside is a nicely appointed restaurant with a beautiful long bar which we highly recommend you eat at. Our bartender Christy was amazing. But more about her later, right now I will talk about the food. We started with the margarita scallops, which was chunks of seared scallops soaked in margarita on toasted wonton chips with a black bean corn, salsa and drizzle with a local aioli, YUM! We also had their fried green tomatoes, which came with apricot horseradish sauce and aoli. Kiki had the catch of the day, which was a grilled piece of grouper atop mediterranean couscous and a medley of mediterranean vegetables. I had the prime rib, which came with lobster Chili Churri butter and a brandy peppercorn sauce. Both entrees were amazing. Now back to our bartender Christie. To say that she wears many hats is an understatement. She greeted us when we sat at the bar, by the way, did I mention that you can reserve seats at the bar? She described the menu items in a way that you only expect to find from a waiter in the finest restaurants in the world. She addressed any and all allergy issues relating to these dishes all the while she is making drinks for patrons at the bar as well as handling the service bar for all the patrons in the restaurant. Without missing a beat, she takes our order.Buses plates from other customers and continues to make drinks for everybody in the restaurant. At this point I think I told her her new nickname should be the Flash. At one point during our dinner, we saw her serve a bottle of wine to another couple at the end of the bar. Her presentation was that of a full wine sommelier with pouring a taste for approval while showing the label of the bottle as she waited for the customers approval then pouring the glasses after approval was given. List of hats: Bartender Bar Back Waiter Sommelier Entertainer Influencer to a new generation of food service, people on Tybee island. ( She babysat the owner of Bubba Gumbo's.) Lest I forget she is also the General Manager of the restaurant. She is someone that I would like to call friend after meeting her once and eating at her restaurant only once.

    Our first time here, heard a lot about this restaurant so checking it out. It's also my wife's…read moresister 75th birthday. Started with some bread, a scallop appetizer and salad which was pretty good. Our main dishes are spectacular, the flavors are amazing, best prime rib I have ever had, complements to the chef's. For dessert we had Banana pudding cheese cake. Melissa our waitress was excellent, knew her specials, friendly and professional kept up with us and made sure we had what we needed. The atmosphere is great, not a large dining room but it is a beautiful restaurant. The only thing when at capacity it is loud, so it is at times hard to hear your own conversation. I (we) highly recommend this restaurant when on Tybee Island, The restaurant is open till 9:00pm so make a reservation.
