Great place to go. I live local and this was my first time, but definitely won't be my last time.

This is been one of our favorite stops for several years, and today it was not up to par. The groupa fingers varied between overdone and undercooked in the same batch. And this may have been on the menu before, and we didn’t notice it: the Groupa of fingers are any white fish they decide to put into batter. I doubt it’s grouper. The other thing bothered us about this visit was we noticed a ‘service charge’ that was added to our bill with no explanation. We ask our wait person about it and they don’t see any of that, and in my opinion, labeling it as a service charge disrespects the workers and the patrons because the service people don’t see any of that money. A large company bought the restaurant recently, and it seems like they are trying to hide charges to increase their profits. if they need to raise their prices to cover their costs, put it on the menu so I know what I’m buying when I order. Don’t surprise me with an added fee at the end of my meal that I was not expecting. That is deceitful.
Edit in response to the owner's reply: The service fee may be on the menu, but it certainly wasn't noticed when we ordered, and that is my point. Raise your prices and make it so I know what I am paying when I order. Your claim that your service fee allows you to keep prices low is ridiculous and an insult to my intelligence. You don't raise your prices, but you add on extra afterwards - and that keeps you competitive ????? You are still charging more. I am paying more - just be honest about it. I will respect you more and will return more often for honesty than "perceived" lower prices.

Don’t go after 9pm in hopes of eating dinner because their kitchen will be closed. They should have that information on their website so people front drive 20 mins out of there way for no reason.

Been to this restaurant numerous times. Every single time over the past five years the hostess is incredibly rude and acts totally bothered to even be speaking to customers. It must be the culture bc the people change but the attitude doesn’t improve. On this date, November 18, 2024, even the server was terribly rude and acting put out as she provided horrible service. We keep going back bc of the view, but no more. There is no view after dark, and the service is less than a one star. Crazy when you realize it’s our city’s mayor that owns it. They should be outstanding in service instead of being so horrible.

This is a great place for food, drinks, sports, and chatting with others. The staff is great (especially Dee outside on the weekends!) and the food is really good. It is a real restaurant that happens to have two great bars (indoor and outdoor) as opposed to a bar that also has food.
Among the dishes we have tried - all have been excellent - peel and eat shrimp, fish tacos, burgers and salads.
There is also a place to sit outside with your beverage in Adirondack chairs and enjoy the beautiful ocean view.
Despite being an ocean front property the prices are actually quite reasonable for what you get.
There is a parking lot across the street as well taking away any worries about finding parking if you are coming from any distance (we are typically able to walk - but we would drive if staying further away, because it's our new favorite.)
Having all of the games on but "real" food means I can accompany my husband when he's watching his favorite sports and not worry that I'm going to starve or be forced to eat super salty "bar food" that just doesn't thrill me.
Almost ordered the rib eye this last time and after seeing it on a plate nearby I'm sure it's what I'll enjoy the next time!!

It's a cool spot right on the ocean. Fast service. The food was typical bar fare, but the views and service make up for that.
I ended up just having a salad as they couldn't guarantee no cross contamination in with the fryer baskets- and I'm highly allergic to shellfish. The salad was good and my fiance and I still had a nice time. The outside dining was unfortunately closed for a private event...

As I sit here eating my cold fries because I had to leave the restaurant before finishing my meal, I think about why I won't return to Bummz. My date and I found the venue enticing. First, there is a parking lot dedicated to Bummz. And, from my seat, I could see the ocean through the sea oats and Pawleys Island chairs. Alas, my drink tasted like watered-down well liquor was used to make it. And the fish tacos were only edible. Fortunately, the hot wings were yummy. Also, if you travel with a service dog, be forewarned. They have feral cats underfoot. When we asked if there was anything that could be done about the cats, to keep them away from our table, we were told 'No, they're here all the time'. It made me wonder if this restaurant has a rodent problem. There are several other restaurants we visited during our Myrtle Beach vacation. All had fabulous food and wonderful customer service, along with great accommodations for a service dog. I hope that Bummz can learn from their neighbors.

Slow service, overpriced, over-cooked. Crab cakes looked like burnt hamburger patties, frozen fries are NOT a premium side worth an upcharge and the fried shrimp were overcooked. Last year we loved the place, that's why we returned. Sadly, we won't be back. Over 110$ for a family of 4 and only my kids enjoyed their meals.
