Here’s a list of Myrtle Beach restaurants that are open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2021.
We are preparing a list of Myrtle Beach area restaurants that will be open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2021 (and some places where you can pick up a Christmas feast if you’d prefer to dine at home). I’ll keep adding to the list as I find more (and I know there are more), so make sure you check back. Also, if you know of any I missed, please comment below.
Restaurant Owners: If you own a restaurant and will be open Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, let us know! There is a strong demand for “family style” inexpensive dining during the holidays, and MBOTC wants to add you to the list.
Myrtle Beach Restaurants open on Christmas Day hours are listed, but may have changed since publication.
Good Day Cafe Surfside Beach offers “Don’t eat alone” Christmas meal
If you know of someone who is eating alone, homeless, or unable to prepare their own food, please pass along that Good Day Cafe is offering a FREE Christmas meal from 12 noon to 4 p.m. on Christmas Day. If you know of anyone in need who cannot drive or attend, contact Good Day Cafe at 843-668-5000 and they will arrange delivery.
“This is…uh… Open to the community but really open to those who are in need. We’re looking for those that are shut ins. The elderly who may not have any family or can’t cook for themselves. People that are homeless or food-deprived. We want to open our doors for them on Christmas. So they can enjoy dinner with us.”
if you would like to help in this very worthwhile event, Good Day Cafe is also looking for volunteers to help out and they are accepting sealed Christmas cards with notes of encouragement, small gifts, prepackaged candy and store-bought baked goods.
Good Day Cafe is located at 357 US-17 BUS, in Surfside Beach.
