Joe’s Bar & Grill has the coolest deck in the Grand Strand

Casual fine dining with fireplaces, excellent food, great wine list and a raccoon run

Joe’s Bar & Grill is a restaurant that makes you feel like you’re dining in someone’s cool home. A big fire place and living room greet you as you walk in the door. It’s so cozy! Then, your eyes will probably wander to the extensive collection of taxidermied animals hanging on the wall. The owner and chef is a hunter.

Joe’s has been a locals’ favorite for 30 years.

This casual fine dining restaurant is tucked away on the marsh just off of the hubbub of Business 17 in North Myrtle Beach. It’s conveniently located but far enough from the traffic to make you feel secluded.

The outdoor deck is the coolest in the Grand Strand: a big bar, plenty of seating, big fireplace, and gorgeous marsh views. Also, a raccoon run. “A raccoon run!?” you might be thinking, “What on earth is that!?” Most likely you’ve never seen one. I’ve never seen one. Does another one exist? It is a wooden boardwalk with a tower platform as tall as the deck. Bread is scattered on the platform to attract raccoons to run across the wooden bridge, which is endlessly entertaining.

The wine list is superb. And while you could very well go to Joe’s for the wine and the raccoon ogling, the real reason to visit Joe’s is the outstanding fine dining comfort food.

If you’re in the mood for steak, go for the Steak Au Poivre or the Angus Beef Short Rib. If you’re feeling seafood, the Shrimp Lowcountry is a local favorite. Looking for a wine to try for the table? Order the Emmolo Merlot crowd-pleasing favorite red wine that will compliment both steak and seafood.
