It has been a few years since we put out some information about who we are and what we do. Since it is time for a lot of folks to start planning their vacations, and you will be stopping by for dinner at least once, we wanted to put out some information to help make your visit to make River City Café a stop to remember.
River City Café is a local’s favorite with several locations along the Grand Strand. Well known for the handcrafted burgers and hand cut style French fries, River City Café has consistently been named
Best of the Beach by our locals. River City Café provides a fun family friendly environment that is, in a word, eclectic.
- What type of dining experience can you expect?
Laid back. Relaxed. Fast casual. Fun. Family oriented. Beach shack. Those are just a few words our guests have used to describe their experiences with us. You can expect peanut shells to be scattered across the floor, license plates on the walls and smiles all around. We want provide a location that any family can enjoy and want to share with your friends and on your social media accounts.
- Do you take reservations?
We do not. We pride ourselves on being a first come, first serve restaurant. However, if you have a large party or are planning to bring a large party, give us a call ahead of time so we can work to accommodate you the best we can. While calling ahead does not guarantee seating upon arrival, it does help us be more prepared to provide you with the experience you deserve.
- Animal friendly restaurant?
Even though we proudly host a raccoon for our mascot, we do not allow animals on our premises. There are some very wordy restrictions and regulations put forth by DHEC that we must follow in order to allow pets that we simply cannot comply with at this time. Service animals are permitted and always welcome.
- What type of dining areas do we provide? Private dining available?
Rustic, family oriented. Our guests are our family so we want to ensure you are comfortable. Tables, booths, and patio/porch style dining. All different based on the location. Some of our locations even have an ocean view! Our location on 73 Ave even offers an outdoor tiki bar. All of our locations are in close proximity to local hot spots. Our Surfside Beach location does have a 3rd floor that during certain times of the year can be used to host parties, please call us to arrange the details ahead of time.

We open every day at 11:00 am and close at 10:00pm.

- Are there kid’s menu options?
Absolutely! We have kids burgers, chicken nuggets, hot dogs, corn dogs, grilled cheese and even mac & cheese.

All of our food is prepared in a common kitchen, but we do offer several options for those looking to follow a gluten sensitive lifestyle. Our kitchen creativity didn’t stop there. We have various vegetarian options like our awesome salads and a vegan veggie burger as well as some meat free appetizers. However, our breading does contain egg. As for allergies. It is important to note that River City Café does utilize ingredients that include milk, eggs, soy, wheat, flour and peanuts.
