Craft cocktails? No, not even close. Everything to make a cocktail is dispensed through the soda gun. Bartender had to look at menu to make drinks, which were below average. At nearly $30 for 2 drinks, this was one of the worst and most disappointing and subpar value experiences I have ever had in Myrtle Beach. Dear owner, you need to re-brand this place. Let it be what it truly is - a basic overpriced tourist bar and nightclub in a beach town. Nothing wrong with that, it's what people generally expect. But do not call yourself a "craft" cocktail bar with "modern" cuisine; that is a falsehood. Jon Tapper and Bar Rescue should visit this place!
Literally, security took about 15 mins to wand 4 of us down. Repeatedly, our party stated they didn't have anything in their pockets. The wand kept going off, regardless of everything being emptied out of all pockets. Security stated the ID'S didn't look like our in person looks. Too personal around genitalia and repeatedly patted inside of thighs and pockets. Bordering inappropriate and hostile. We took our leave promptly after the last of our party was wanded down. Hardly any crowd and "dress code" was a shot in the dark. Ridiculously overdone for such a sub-par and rude establishment.
No smokey drinks but the bartender was nice and we met a nice couple while sitting at the bar also. Drinks were on point.
Amazing drinks and happy hour deals! We got the key lime pie cocktail and I would go back if I lived in the area. Must try!
No food, closed kitchen. no fun drinks. So despite the chemist specialty cocktail title, (we went there for some cool drinks) there were none. They said they don’t do that anymore. I guess someone bought the place and it’s just a regular bar now. Just regular $10 basic beach drink in a styrofoam cup (had I not asked for glass) Disappointed
One of the best nights of my life here. Bartenders are all super friendly!
The picture definitely added 10lbs...ie it looked smaller once inside. Also the music was hella loud....what? I said the music was hella loud!
This place could be so much more. With a name like The Chemist you would expect some creative mixology, but that was not the case here. Nothing creative. Decent service from our bar tender. One TV screen. No music. Rather dull experience.
This place is amazing. The food here is delicious, best Buffalo chicken wrap I've ever had. Everyone who was old enough to drink said that the drinks were spectacular.
PATRONS BEWARE: THIS ISNT THE SAME PLACE AS THE REVIEWS. Apparently the previous owner who did all of the awesome cocktail/ molecular gastronomy stuff “left for Florida” so now it’s just your normal bar food. When we asked why the Facebook wasn’t updated bartender just shrugged and was like “he wouldn’t give it to us”. Ok no big deal, still hoping they had good food but my boyfriend’s cod sandwich came out ice cold and my $10 burger honestly wasn’t as good as the $4 burger I had at Hamburger Joe’s two nights before. It feels really sketchy that they don’t update any of their socials either (there isn’t even a website/working telephone line for the place) and I feel like it’s to still lure people there with the awesome food from online reviews only to be let down. The staff was nice, but not nearly nice enough to make up for the rest.
