In March we posted this cool shot of the front door, with a caption saying..”For those asking, this door will be open in 45 minutes…” Little did we know it would close after that day for the next two months. So it is with great excitement we announce that we’ll be opening that door once again at 4pm today!  Of course, we will be adhering to all of the recommendations for safe reopening, and we ask that you do as well. If we all work together to insure a safe and enjoyable experience, we’ll be enjoying those cheesesteaks, wings, Painkillers and live music for here on out.

Hope everyone is well and safe! While you’re searching through Amazon Prime for something to watch, we suggest checking in on the original Surf Bar house band, Dangermuffin! Recently, their award-winning documentary was added to the Prime Video library. The 38 minute doc features one great night from 2018, with interviews and clips from the concert. Congrats to them and the success they’ve built!

A sad evening. John Prine undoubtedly carries an incredible amount of influence and inspiration for so many of the musicians who play for us here at Surf Bar. It’s tough knowing he’s gone, but hopefully he’s in Heaven, enjoying that vodka & ginger ale and kissin’ that pretty girl. Thank you, sir 🙏

Hello again! It’s been some time since we’ve

Hello again! It’s been some time since we’ve reached out to say hey, and we’re sorry for that. Obviously, things have been rather strange for all of us. We hope you’re well and safe, and cannot wait to see you again!  To update those of you who are not completely tuned in to what is happening on #FollyBeach regarding the current crisis:  Yesterday, the Folly Beach City Council enacted a ban on all short-term and new long-term rentals until at least May 31st, 2020. While this is obviously discouraging news, we must remember that it is ultimately in the best interest of everyone’s safety at this time. The hope around the community (and the rest of the world, honestly) is that somehow this pandemic sees a major shift and begins to dissipate quickly. Until then, we all need to remain diligent and disciplined in doing our best to prohibit the rapid spread of the virus.  One thing we here at Surf Bar want to do for both you and our bands who entertain us week in and week out is alert you of the many live online streams these musicians are performing for us. Music is the universal language and offers light in a dark time, and we hope we can connect everyone through online song.  MUSICIANS: Please feel free to post in our DIRECT MESSAGES your plans to host a live stream event, and we will begin to compile a calendar with links so we can tune in to sing and celebrate with you. We ask that you please do not post these in the comments…we want to be able to provide a comprehensive and concise listing for everyone else to know, and if you merely post in the comments, your stream may get lost in the shuffle!  Again, we hope you are well. Eventually, we’ll be moving beyond this challenging time, and we’ll be back within our little home away from home, enjoying a cheese steak and a Painkiller, while grooving to the jams we love so!

Well, the State of South Carolina has restricted in-house dining, so we are closed all day today 🤨. We will be open Thursday, Friday and Saturday for takeout orders only from 12pm until 9pm. As we learn more about the restaurant restrictions, we’ll pass the info on. For now, be safe, take the recommended precautions, and care for one another. 🙏 .

For those asking, this door will be open in 45 minutes! While we look forward to seeing you for a St. Patrick’s Day☘️ celebration, of course we have to ask that we all handle ourselves and our hygiene. We’ve all heard the recommendations, so if you join us, please join us responsibly! 🍻🎩🇮🇪 📸: @seaboneslife
