This waterfront locale is historically known as the launching site of our country's first submarine, the H.L. Hunley. Poised at the breach between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic, you can enjoy a meal amongst the spectacular sunset views and balmy ocean breezes of the Isle of Palms. Come early and have a cocktail at the Rooftop Bar while enjoying amazing views before dining.

    We had a wonderful dinner on Christmas Eve at The Boathouse. Valet was friendly and efficient. The hostess was kind, and our table was ready when we arrived for our reservation. The food was excellent (as always) and well paced. Even on such a busy evening we never felt rushed and service was wonderful. Thank you so much!!

    A decent place with a small menu. Not a tremendous selection and definitely not enough fresh fish selection. Fried Calamari isn't coastal SC food, nor crab cakes. $30 for fried flounder is pretty pricey.
    Boathouse at Breach InletResponded on November 30, 2024
    Thank you for the feedback. We usually off 3-4 different selections of rotating fresh fish and most are local! Our Fried Flounder entree is 8 ounces of flounder and a choice of side for $26. Hopefully there will be something in season to your liking on your next visit. Happy Holidays!

    This is a busy, vibrant restaurant. It is not “ haute cuisine” but solidly good. The menu is varied but heavily fish and seafood. We had great service and the one food issue we had was addressed quickly. One of the manages came to our table and we had a great conversation with him about the food and other things. We love going there.

    We had our Thanksgiving lunch at Boathouse. We loved being able to order off of the menu unlike other restaurants that charged super high prices for a Thanksgiving buffet only. Having a vegan daughter with food restrictions she was able to order delicious food off of the menu instead of us paying $75 -$125 per person elsewhere for her to eat rolls and potatoes. My son and I had the Thanksgiving special which was delicious!!! My husband had a seafood mix that consisted of lobster tails, scallops and shrimp. Also delicious as we shared our meals. Jocelyn was our server and she was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. The wait time on our meals was minimal. Everything came out hot and so good. Having never been to Boathouse due to us being in town for the holiday we were Very Very pleased with everything about our experience. Boathouse will Definitely be on our itinerary the next time we are in IOP.
