We have been visting North Myrtle Beach for probably ten years now. Of course each year we look forward to the beach and the ocean, but the next best thing is Hoskins!! For breakfast and dinner, it is just great. We love the laid back atmosphere and look forward to seeing the same waitresses each year. The food is just as good, and maybe better, than the restaurants in Calabash. Great value. Be sure to go early for dinner if you don't want to wait in a long line. We're coming back this June and our fist dinner will probably be at Hoskins. We can't wait for the fried oysters.

The best food on the Strand from Georgetown to Sunset Beach, bar none. Home cooking at it's best and enough to feed anybody at price anyone can afford. You might have to wait outside for a little while but the food is worth it. The Seafood is by far the best you will eat anywhere.

The food is excellent and the salad bar is a nice extra. They say they close at 9:00 PM but if you get there after 8:30 PM you will be looked at like you have 2 heads. They will sweep, mop and clean the condiments off your table while you are still eating. I have seen them turn away patrons at 8:55 PM. I know they have been there forever but this shows poor service and management. ref: 10153

My husband and I usually like to eat take-out at restaurants which we did at Hoskins. We were there 10/2/07 during lunch time and the place was really buzzing. We put in our order of 2 different platters w/ salad bar instead of slaw, which cost us extra, but worth it. The last time we ate there was back in the 70's when we had 2 little ones, very traumatic!! We loved the food then and thankgoodness, it's still good!! Wish there was a little more room inside but after all this time I doubt it will happen. Anyway, as long as it doesn't interfere with the quality of food I guess it's okay. ref: 8958

Wonderful local place! Good southern homecookin' during lunch. I reccomend sticking with the daily specials. You get the best quality food, for the best price, and fast! We try to get up there as much as possible. Try to be there before noon, or there'll be a wait, and be sure to try the coconut pie! ref: 8602

We love the food at Hoskins. We stay at a condo in NMB 2 or 3 times a year, and a couple of years ago we saw the line, and just had to try it. Boy, I am glad we did. We have been going to all the "GREAT" places in the Myrtle Beach Area and were getting hoooo hummmm food. Nothing great! Big prices and not such a great meal. We tried Hoskins and were thrilled with the seafood. Lots of it and cooked perfectly. The price is right too! Not the greatest atmosphere, but good enough and food is definately excellent. I don't complain about the salad bar, because with most seafood dinners, you don't even get a salad bar, just cole slaw on the side...I am happy to have my bowl full from the salad bar. Go... try it...I think you will like it.

We just came back from N. Myrtle and once again loved Hoskins better than any of the bigger, pricier seafood restaurants. Those shrimp are my very favorite! I think I have finally learned my lesson and will not try to find a "good deal" anywhere else. Fast, friendly service, delicious food, and great size portions make this a family favorite. My only complaint is that I am always too full to try the home made pie! Will have to doggy bag it next time to enjoy at sunset on the beach. Thanks Hoskins family and staff! ref: 7058

What a " Jewel". We just got back home from 2 weeks in N Myrtle, and miss Hoskins aready. We went to all the big well know places, and then found Hoskins. Best home cooked food, lots of good veggies and home made pies!! Some times we would eat all three meals there. Never had a bad meal, just wanted to keep coming back. Please, dont change a thing. Thanks to the whole staff !! ref: 5690

Nothing to write home about here! The baked potato was the most notable item on the platter. The fried flounder was greasy. The shrimp, oysters and scallops were ho-hum. The crab cake was fried to a crisp. The salad bar was a joke. ref: 4950

My wife and I come here every year on our vacation.
We love the food and the service is good. The only problem is the salad bar. On the menu it says only one trip to the salad bar, but the bowls for the salad are the size of Ice cream bowls. These bowls are WAY too small for salad.
Most people like myself, like a good size salad with their meal. One time we were there and my wife made 2 bowls of salad while at the salad bar, and when we got the bill we were charged for an extra salad. She only made one trip as stated on the menu, but I guess 2 bowls were not allowed. I didnt mind the extra charge, but it would have been nice if they would have said something and not just added it to the bill.
Wonder if you can bring you own salad bowl with you?
I would gladly pay for the extra lettuce.
I guess I will try that when I become a local in the near future. ref: 4747

Hoskin's is an excellent restaurant! The flounder and shrimp are my favorites, and are as good, if not better, than the pricey, expensive restaurants I have dined in. I always leave with a full stomach and a doggie bag. I have recommended Hoskin's to many people and every one of them has loved it, too! ref: 4289

It was a local diner basically. Nothing special. My wife had a fish sandwich. Just a bun and two pieces of fried fish. The fish was tasty, but some lettuce or something would've been nice. I had the She-Crab soup which was tasty but nothing to write home about. If we went back this trip, which we are not planning to, we would order something different. The staff were really nice and accommodating. ref: 4182

This is my favorite place to eat in Myrtle Beach! I have been vacationing here with my grandmother since I was 5-I'm now 22, she passed away a few years ago and it was always her favorite place to eat and the highlight of her trip! So I guess it's also kind of sentimental to me. The best dish is the fried oysters!! ref: 3042

Hoskins is the best place for the freshest flounder and shrimp. The fried flounder/shrimp have never disappointed my husband or myself. Always thick founder, good size shrimp cooked just right. Forget Calabash, Hoskins is so much better. We have been eating at Hoskins since we purchased on beach vacation home in 1992. If you truely want great food at a good price and friendly staff, Hoskins is the place for you and your family.

We are locals and we love Hoskins! When we want seafood, we choose Hoskins because we feel their shrimp, flounder, and oysters are better than any we could get in Calabash. We are there for the lunch special just about daily (except Monday, when they are closed). They offer a choice of meat, three veggies, tea or coffee, and homemade biscuits or cornbread for under $6.00. A great price, but even better, it is really delicious. This is truly Southern, home cooking at its best. ref: 1327

My family has been coming to Hoskins for as long as I can remember. Not much has changed in the decor in the past 30 years but the food is great, prices are great, and the service is genuine down-home nice. Don't pass this one by for a flashy billboard place....you'll miss a real beach eating experience if you do. Great flounder! ref: 743

We first noticed Hoskins because of the line outside the restaurant along the sidewalk and went back the next night to give it a try. This is one of those places that don't do a lot (if any) of advertising, because word of mouth keeps them in all the customers they can handle. If you have one night in North Myrtle Beach, eat here. If you have a week, you'll probably do as we do, and eat here at least a couple times. Just a good, down-to-earth, what-you-see-is-what-you-get restaurant with great food. ref: 545
