⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Bye Bye Birdie – Beaufort, SC
“Creative Southern bites, polished cocktails, and pure Lowcountry charm.”
As a Level 8 Google Local Guide who eats out over 300 days a year, I can say confidently: Bye Bye Birdie is one of Beaufort’s rising stars.
We grabbed two seats at the bar on a sunny afternoon and started with their Weekly Deviled Egg Flight — and wow, it’s one of the most fun, flavor-packed starters I’ve had anywhere in the Lowcountry. • 🌽 Mexican Street Corn: Creamy, tangy, and dusted with cotija and chili lime seasoning — everything you love about street corn in one perfect bite. • 🥑 Guacamole Jalapeño: Silky avocado whip topped with pico and jalapeño heat, beautifully balanced with crisp tortilla sticks standing tall. • 🥓 Buffalo Chicken & Bacon: Smoky, spicy, and downright addictive — the crowd favorite for sure.
Every detail showed off the chef’s playful creativity. The plating looked like something straight from a magazine spread, and the flavors delivered even more than they promised.
To wash it down, we tried the April craft cocktails — a stunning berry-infused creation that was both refreshing and complex. Lightly sweet, citrus-forward, and served in tall glasses over crushed ice, it felt like the first sip of summer. The bartender knew exactly how to balance flavor and presentation — a rare find in a small-town spot.
The vibe inside is airy and relaxed — polished wood bar, golden lighting, friendly locals, and that subtle hum of good conversation that tells you people love being here. Service was quick, warm, and genuine — the kind that makes you want to stay for “just one more.”
I also peeked at their menu for next time — the Salmon BLAT, Asian Chicken Salad, and Fish Tacos are calling my name. You can tell this place takes pride in fresh ingredients and thoughtful pairings.
Whether you’re a Beaufort local or just exploring the coast, Bye Bye Birdie is a must-visit for brunch, cocktails, or an easy date-night bite. Creative food, killer drinks, and Southern hospitality done right.

Let’s talk about the food — because it is phenomenal. Every dish I’ve tried has been packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. The prices are incredibly reasonable for the quality you get, which makes it even better. Their salmon, in particular, deserves its own spotlight — tender, fresh, and full of flavor, easily the best I’ve had anywhere around.
Recently, they’ve added soups to their lineup, and it was such a pleasant surprise! The Corn and Crab Chowder is absolutely to die for — creamy, rich, and comforting in every spoonful. It’s the kind of soup that makes you stop mid-conversation just to say, “Wow, this is amazing.”
The staff truly go above and beyond. Every single person is friendly, attentive, and genuinely seems to care about making sure you have the best experience possible. The manager is one of the most welcoming people you’ll ever meet, and it really sets the tone for the entire restaurant.

From the moment you walk in, the staff’s professionalism and dedication set the tone for an exceptional experience. Every detail — from the drink presentation to the overall atmosphere — shows how much thought and care went into creating this spot.
I tried the Amelia cocktail, made with Ketel One, St-Germain, muddled blackberry, lemon, and mint — and it was as stunning to look at as it was to sip. The deviled egg flight was amazing and the meatball sliders were the best in Beaufort! Ben’s years of experience in the restaurant world clearly shine through in everything from the service to the flavor balance.
A fresh addition to Beaufort that already runs like a local favorite — I can’t wait...
