Great atmosphere! Good service by the staff. On future trips, I’ll stick to ordering a hot dog or burger & fries.
I had the fried oyster & ham platter this visit. Oysters were okay. Corn pudding wasn’t even ‘warm’. The ham was ice box cold and just like processed deli meat sliced 1/8 thick. Not worth the $27 price. 😔
Great food, wonderful service!
GOOD FOOD, FRIENDLY PEOPLE WHO TREAT YOU LIKE FAMILY. I LOVE LOOKING OUT AT THE WATER AND, BOATS GOING BY WHILE I'M EATING.

Located on Smith Island, Bayside Inn Restaurant offers a delightful dining experience with beautiful views right on the water. Visitors can enjoy regional dishes such as crab cake sandwiches, soft crabs, and Smith Island Cake. The friendly staff and close proximity to the dock make it a convenient stop after a ferry ride. The restaurant serves some of the best soft crabs and corn pudding, along with a charming gift shop. While lunch can get busy with tourist cruises, an early dinner is recommended since they close early. The service is quick, and the waitstaff is friendly and helpful, though vegetarian options mostly include side dishes. Inside and outside, the views are lovely, including a glimpse of Goat Island across the water, which adds to the charm of this family-friendly place. Recent reviews mention satisfying portions of crab cake platter with homemade sides like stewed tomatoes and corn pudding, and a very friendly staff. However, some guests experienced slow service, cold food, and lack of attention from the waitstaff, which was disappointing. Overall, Bayside Inn Restaurant remains a popular spot for a relaxed meal with great water views.
