Seabear is one of my absolute favorite date night spots! Everything we've tried on their menu is delicious and I could honestly eat the lobster roll everyday for the rest of my life. Service is wonderful & drinks are delicious. Highly recommend!

Easily one of the best restaurants in Athens. While the wait time can be a bit long on a Friday evening, the food is absolutely worth it. We ordered the lobster rolls and oysters—they are all good. Highly recommend!

Wow this place was fantastic. Wish I hadn’t learned about it right before moving from Athens. Shrimp & Grits were amazing along with the Crab Cake. If I ever return to Athens, I’ll be back to try more from Seabear!

I used to eat here at least 3/4 times a month but seldom go anymore because the wait staff at the bar is so unfriendly and treat regulars like they’ve never seen you before. Good luck getting a friendly greeting or smile from them or a thank you for your business! They’re really jerks as a whole!! They ruin the experience of dining there and it’s not a cheap place to eat!

Great place for dinner or even a small plate and a bourbon.

Seabear has amazing oysters to be this far inland. Normally that’s suspect, but they do it excellently. The last time I visited they had about 6 different oysters to choose from, and each was distinct and well prepared. Their lobster roll and fish sandwich entrees are also great.

Did not want to share this but so far this my favorite place in Athens to eat. Oysters are fresh several different varieties. Food is good. Drinks are good. And Great Service. I hope my review doesn't over crowd the place because I think that it is Athens hidden Gem.

I had been here once 3 years ago so I was worried I had overhyped it but I just went again last night ...and I just absolutely love this place. The food is just so incredible and the seafood is all super fresh. I'm not a huge fan of tiki drinks but they made a really great gimlet for us. Highly recommend the lobster roll, green curry mussels, and scallop fried rice.

My husband and I met with some friends here recently for dinner. We overall enjoyed the oysters we ordered. Was very fresh and tasted fantastic. Other dishes we had were the fish sandwich, Tybee shrimp and grits, and I believe some kind of fried rice that one of our friend ordered. The restaurant reminds my husband and I of some of the foods we had while in St. Simons which was very pleasant for us. That how fresh we felt the seafoods was. Next time we’re in Athen we will for sure stop by again.

Always busy and loud, and that's part of the atmosphere. Great bartenders! It's worth the wait for a table, or sit at the bar and eat there. Great oyster selection! The clam chowder is really good.
