    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.

    GO TO THE BREAKFAST CLUB!…read more I ordered the Farmhouse, and it was absolutely AMAZING. Everything on the plate was packed with flavor, cooked perfectly, and you can genuinely tell there's care put into the food. This isn't your basic breakfast -- it's the kind of meal you're still thinking about later. But what made the experience even better was the people. The customer service was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuine from the moment I walked in. You immediately feel comfortable and taken care of. And I have to give a special shoutout to Rob, the chef the general manager, the bees knees...... he is AMAZING! Not only can that man COOK, but his personality and the pride he puts into what comes out of that kitchen made the experience even better. My Farmhouse was phenomenal -- and just LOOK at this plate! Great food is one thing. Great food combined with people who make you feel genuinely welcome is what makes a place memorable. The Breakfast Club absolutely nailed both! Farmhouse: 10/10. Rob: 10/10. Service: 10/10.

    Absolute garbage and I guarantee if a food inspector dropped by, this place would be closed down…read more When we were seated (in a booth) my wife sat down and was cut with a nail that was sticking out of the bench seat. It really bled bad, told the waitress and she apologized but did nothing. The grill was so dirty that smoke was coming off of it with no food on it. I honestly could not taste the difference between my chicken and my hash browns. It's so hard to mess up breakfast but they did. Additionally, they had a five pound box of raw bacon sitting uncooked on the service counter that sat there the entire time we were there and still there an hour later as we walked by to go to the beach. When our meal was completed the waitress brought "the bill" to us. It wasn't our bill it was someone else's bill. Apparently they gave our bill to someone else so the waitress explained to us that to make the register balance, we had to pay some other random bill, I'm pretty sure we got ripped off. Lastly, I'm not even sure how the cooks did it but there was a raw broken egg on the floor by our table and when we pointed it out to our waitress she just shrugged and it was still on the floor when we left.

You can tell that it's been around for a long time with little visual upgrades, but as long as the food is hot and the team is friendly - who cares about the fancy aesthetics! (Not me) When we entered, we were greeted and told them how many were in our party. And then sweet Auntie disappeared and never came back LOL rumor has it, she still has not returned lol. But another sweet young lady asked us again and gave us a number to signify our space in line. After about 10-15min, our number was called and we had a seat in the back room. A Waiter came to our table and quickly took our drink orders, returning shortly after with a tray of drinks. The menu has some great classic breakfast options, as well as brunch. They even have a buffet that was getting a lot of action. Not from me though... I'm good on that in this world of germs! We all opted for different meals, I went with the big breakfast as it paired sweet and savory, just what I prefer. The portions were generous, I'll give them that. My eggs and grits were pretty legit. I've had some great grits and some trash grits, I'd definitely give their version a B. The bacon was a bittt too crispy for me but I'm really weird about my bacon and I feel like normal people like crispy bacon lol so that's a personal problem. But that pork sausage? No way. I don't know what it was about the flavor but I couldn't handle swallowing it. Not sure what happened there. My pancakes were delicious! All in all, a basic breakfast experience that fulfilled its duty of filling our bellies up for the beach.

My roll was even warmed to kick up the decadence one extra notch! The only area for improvement - a minor one - need a sharper knife to get through the sturdy crust of the avocado toast. The standard knife was no match and resulted in making a crime scene of this breakfast plate. Food, drinks and service were all top notch.

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.

We were in Savannah for my cousin's bachelor party, and there were eight of us. Every meal, a different cousin got to pick where we ate. One afternoon, someone suggested Oakie's because it was close to Tybee Beach. The only thing I had asked all weekend was, "Let's make it a sit-down restaurant." As we pulled into the parking lot, I immediately realized this was a deli--walk up to the counter, order your food, and either take it to go or grab one of the small café-style tables. My cousin walked in first, I followed behind him, and he turned around and looked at me. I just shook my head and said, "Nope... there's nowhere for eight of us to sit. Let's go somewhere else." While everyone debated where to go next, one of my cousins said, "We're wasting time. Let's just grab food here and eat wherever." Best. Decision. We. Made. The. Entire. Trip. I ordered the Turkey Supreme, and while we waited we watched a steady stream of locals and visitors coming in and out. Eventually we all found places to sit and just decided to eat there.
