About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for scenic views
“Good Food and Bad Advice.” Such is the motto for this one-of-a-kind restaurant that’s in the planning stages as we go to press. Located beside Hot Fish Club on the southern end of Murrells Inlet, it’s owned and operated by the HFC family – but it’s a totally different experience. The menu is quirky, to say the least, with a focus on affordability – most items run between $4 and $12 – and fresh, locally sourced meats, seafood and produce whenever possible. The team is still working out the particulars, but the choices are definitely different and change frequently to keep things interesting.

Take time to explore and expect the unexpected from a restaurant where one of the items offered is described as “kinda weird, but tasty.” Lowcountry looks forward to this new venture from our friends at the Hot Fish Club. With a broad menu, pub-inspired atmosphere and an awesome atmosphere, the IPC is shaping up to be a mighty fun place to hang.

    We both had the lobster roll. It wasn’t very chunky and lacked real lobster flavor

    Was able to walk right in for our reservation and be seated outside. Why bother asking if there is a special occasion if it’s not recognized nor mentioned by the hostess or waitress. Was not at all happy with that. Several items we wanted off the menu , was told they didn’t have in beer selection followed by dessert selection, the 2 listed , again, they didn’t have. Husbands burger was good , my dish of shrimp/lobster scampi , seafood definitely was not fresh it was frozen, very disappointing. My birthday dinner was not what I would have expected.

    My husband and I ordered the calamari strips for an app which was excellent. For dinner I ordered the shrimp salad roll and my husband had the fried bologna sandwich. My shrimp salad roll was SO full of mayonnaise making it unappetizing. I pick out the shrimp, which were not very plentiful. I had some of my husband’s bologna sandwich which was excellent!

    The restaurant came highly recommended by TripAdvisor. I was very disappointed the minute I walked into the run down bar. We ordered lobster bombs, lobster grilled cheese, lobster Mac and cheese, crabcake and a grilled chicken sandwich. The best thing was the grilled chicken sandwich- everything else was very hard to eat. In fact, I couldn’t even eat the crabcakes because it was so bad. Save yourself and go up the road to the more populated restaurants near the Marsh Walk instead.

    Great table on the porch overlooking the marsh. Daniel was an attentive server, very friendly and efficient. The menu was extensive and we all enjoyed our selections for lunch. The food was fresh and served hot.

    Been here many times and always been good. Reserved for 8 for Valentines day to bring some friends who had not been here. Food was good and everyone enjoyed their meal. The issue was that right from the get go we looked at beer menu and there were some crossed off. We tried ordering some others and twice waiter came back and said they didn’t have those either and crossed them off menu. After dinner we discussed dessert plans and decided to stay there. Waiter came out and told us they only had one type of dessert left. This was Valentines day and we felt that they should have been better prepared. Needless to say we left to find dessert somewhere else and it didn’t really leave a good impression in our friends minds for a Valentine’s day outing
