“Loved Pickles and her team! She was always so friendly and took such great care of my family. Our last night we ran up there for ice cream and the place had already closed, she could’ve ignored we were there but instead she popped that door open and welcomed us and served us the best ice cream. Pickles is one of the reasons we love Fripp! Beautiful island, great security, and family friendly service. Thank you Pickles!!”

“Not sure how anyone can give this place less than 5 stars. The steak was to die for, the chocolate cake and donut were amazing. I don’t even like seafood and the shrimp tasted awesome! If I could give it more stars, I would! The workers are super friendly and the chef made the experience very excellent.”

“This local restaurant has the absolute best Shrimp and Grits on their Sunday menu. Their fried shrimp is the best I've ever had and their Beedos burger is amazing. With a great variety of sides and homemade desserts, you won't be disappointed with anything you order here. It's on the way to Hunting Island State Park. Doesn't look like much but it's the best restaurant in in my Beaufort by my far. Any of day is a good to day to eat at Beedos and their Sunday menu is extra special.”

“Don't miss out on this local gem outside Beaufort on the way to Hunting Island! Gullah Grub Restaurant features low country cooking at its finest prepared in the traditions of the Gullah people living along Atlantic coastal regions. The building is super charming and filled with articles, photographs, and artwork related to the owners, Bill & Sara Green, and their mission to serve locally sourced organic foods. Bill was actually there and prepared our meals. I tried the chicken gumbo with a side of rice - she got the BBQ chicken lunch with potato salad and an extra side of mac-n-cheese. Of all these items, my favorite, by far, was the chicken gumbo - super thick and flavorful with a hint of smokiness - EXCELLENT! I mixed the rice with it and it was perfection. Next time I'll try the shrimp gumbo. My second favorite item was the potato salad - seriously, the best I've ever had. Drinks were very good (I preferred the lemonade over the sweet tea). Corn bread is complimentary at the start - very tasty! We had room for a little dessert, so we asked our server for her recommendation - sweet potato pie or peach cobbler. The pie was her favorite, and it did not disappoint! We really felt like family in this restaurant, and the food was great. You must try this place if you're in the Beaufort area!”
