Myrtle Beach Restaurants Open on Christmas Day 2023 (and Christmas Eve)

Here’s a list of Myrtle Beach restaurants that are open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2023. 

We are preparing a list of Myrtle Beach area restaurants that will be open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2023 (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.

We found some of these restaurants through OpenTable, and some through the restaurant’s social media or website. We verified others personally. In all cases, a restaurant’s plans might change, or reservations might fill up, so be sure to check with the restaurant. Also, make sure to check hours, because some restaurants have limited hours on Christmas Day.

We have included within this list, restaurants with higher price points for those looking to splurge.

Myrtle Beach Restaurants open on Christmas Day hours are listed, but may have changed since publication.

CHRISTMAS DINNER RESERVATIONS FILL UP QUICKLY. PLEASE MAKE YOUR RESERVATIONS EARLY. SOME RESTAURANTS MAY ALREADY BE FULLY BOOKED.
