Acme Isle of Palms Highlights
The Menu
Acme on Isle of Palms offers a mouthwatering array of Lowcountry cooking at its finest. You can indulge in breakfast, brunch, and dinner here, or relax at their welcoming bar while sipping an incredible craft cocktail. Start your day the right way with one of their omelets, eggs benedicts, or a Southern favorite like biscuits in gravy. If you want to sleep in after a long day at the beach, head over between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. for brunch, where the menu has everything on it from fried green tomatoes to breakfast hash.
Dinner is the highlight of Acme on Isle of Palms, and it is nothing short of fantastic. Start your meal off with one of their delicious starters like gouda grits fries or hushpuppies. Seafood is the specialty at Acme, and there is plenty of it on the menu. Locally sourced shrimp, fish, scallops, and oysters come in a variety of preparations that pair well with one of their sides like collard greens, coleslaw, or truffle mac and cheese. We recommend trying one of their 10 different shrimp and grits dishes (a South Carolina Lowcountry favorite)!
The Atmosphere
Acme on Isle of Palms may serve up world-class Southern specialties, but this no-frills establishment is incredibly casual. The atmosphere is very family-friendly and perfect for those wanting to relax and unwind after a day on the beach. Check with our guest services to reserve a babysitter so you and your special someone can grab a drink and enjoy a night out together. Acme is in the heart of IOP, and just one block away from the shops, restaurants, and Isle of Palms County Park. This is one of the hottest spots to eat dinner, especially on the weekends, so be sure to call or make a reservation online unless you don’t mind waiting for over an hour (trust us, Acme is very popular)!
