The Royal James Café is a small destination located just off of Downtown Beaufort’s on-the-water Front Street, and is a local institution of sorts. A hang-out spot and restaurant since it was first opened more than 60 years ago, the café’s quiet exterior belies a fairly large restaurant as well as a slightly removed pool hall that’s filled with roughly a half dozen antique Brunswick pool tables. This makes Royal James Café a popular destination for the Happy Hour and evening crowd, but every day non-pool shark visitors can enjoy the establishment too, thanks to a hearty menu, rugged but inviting surroundings, and a casually laid-back atmosphere.
The menu has a long list of burgers which are locally famous, as well as a collection of classic sandwiches like roast beef, turkey melts, tuna salad, and grilled mesquite chicken breast. In addition, visitors can feast on larger plates of fried shrimp, clam strips, grilled chicken, or other pub-food favorites, as well as a selection of breakfast fare. Patrons will also find plenty of ice cold drinks on tap, which can be enjoyed at the bar, in the pool hall, or at the scattering of tables.
Relaxed but delicious, the Royal James Café is the place to go for easy-going fare and a little entertainment in the heart of Beaufort.

Nothing beats an ice-cold beverage while relaxing on the beach. Nothing is worse than reaching for an icy drink and finding your cans swimming. Coolers are essential for family days on the sand. A good modern cooler will keep food and drinks fresh for days. In addition to beverages, fishermen rely coolers to keep bait fresh, and hopefully the catch of the day. Walk onto any beach or pier in North or South Carolina and you’ll see a plethora of cooler models and sizes. Cooler technology has advanced rapidly in modern years. Top-end hard-sided coolers can keep ice frozen for a week. Soft coolers are easier for one person to carry onto a beach, but can still keep food cool for days. Cooler materials and price points vary wildly, so we put together this guide with our recommendations for your coastal vacation.

Entirely outfitted with so many extras from toiletries, and family games, to cleaning supplies. The beds were so cozy. Clean. And when we needed to communicate with the host, he was readily available for us every time. The photos in the listing are exactly what you get. Recommend reservations, at “Amos Mosquito” right down the street for a meal. And the restaurant, “Southern Salt” was another favorite we discovered. Wonderful stay.
