Mullet Bay Restaurant

Mullet Bay Restaurant has been a St. Simons Island staple since 1993, offering a relaxed, island‑style dining experience right on Ocean Boulevard. Guests can choose from a menu that highlights Gulf‑caught fish tacos, buttery fried shrimp, classic cheeseburgers, nachos piled with cheese and jalapeños, and a surprisingly good selection of pasta dishes. The spacious open‑air deck overlooks the Atlantic, while a covered patio provides shade for midday lunches. Inside, a casual bar area serves draft beer, house‑made cocktails, and soft drinks, making it a perfect spot for after‑work drinks or a family dinner. The venue frequently hosts live music evenings, and a cornhole set invites guests to play while they wait for their meals. Take‑out options are available for beach picnics or a quick bite after a day of exploring the historic St. Simons Lighthouse and the nearby pier. The interior décor blends nautical accents with modern comfort, featuring reclaimed wood tables, sea‑blue lighting, and murals that celebrate the island’s fishing heritage. Though the exact hours are not listed on the site, the restaurant typically opens mid‑morning and stays open late for dinner service, with a moderate price range that keeps meals affordable for locals and tourists alike. Whether you’re craving a hearty seafood platter or a casual burger, Mullet Bay promises fresh flavors, friendly service, and a laid‑back atmosphere that captures the spirit of Georgia’s coast.
