Stopped in for lunch after a walking tour – glad we did! We sat at the bar & Rennee, the bartender, was just lovely.
My husband had the shrimp po’boy & I had the Lowcountry Gumbo. Both were delicious!
Stop in for lunch if you’re in the area!

What a nice southern sandwich shop with a relaxed vibe. They offer chicken salad and shrimp salad sandwiches or plates, Po Boys (both shrimp and Friend Flounder versions), salads and several other dishes. I highly recommend their shrimp salad plate as well as their pork dumpling appetizer served with bacon jam. They have both indoor seating as well as outdoor patio seating overlooking the water and marina. Highly recommended!

My dining experience at Plum in Beaufort was disappointing, with the food falling below expectations and a billing issue that left a negative impression.
The hamburger was a standout, well-prepared and flavorful, making it a bright spot in the meal. However the shrimp po’ boy, which I was eager to try, was a major letdown. The bread was a stark white instead of the golden, crispy texture you’d expect from a well-made po’ boy, and it lacked any notable flavor, making the dish feel flat. The shrimp and grits were equally unimpressive, missing the rich, soulful taste that defines this Southern staple. Overall, the food quality didn’t live up to the charm of Beaufort’s dining scene.
Additionally, we were charged an automatic tip without clear notification, leading us to tip again unknowingly. This lack of transparency was frustrating and felt deceptive.
Plum has potential given its location, but the kitchen needs to focus on improving dish execution—starting with properly baked, flavorful bread—and the staff should be upfront about billing practices. I hope they address these issues to elevate the experience for future guests.

We were visiting Beaufort, SC for the first time and stopped in Plums for lunch on a rainy day! Perfect gumbo, shrimp and grits, atmosphere and service!

Had the shrimp salad plate and it was absolutely delicious. Amy was our waitress. She was wonderful. We sat outside on the deck and enjoyed the view.

My wife and I ate at Plums in November for a strong lunch. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. The place was fairly busy, but we were seated immediately and the service was great!
We ordered the Pimento Cheese appetizer. Not bad .. but somewhat bland. My wife’s lunch was the Curry Chicken Salad sandwich and she loved it! The side of potato salad was great, too. I ordered peel and eat shrimp and a cup of gumbo. Very good choice! The shrimp was on point and fresh. The gumbo a good side. The bill with tip was $65.
Worth a visit, for sure.

This was the first time my husband & I visited Plums. The atmosphere over looking the beautiful waterfront park added so much to the experience. “Ji” was our waiter & he was amazing… Super friendly, efficient & very accommodating!
It was a bit cool out so we opted for the open air heated covered porch seating area, which overlooks the patio & the gorgeous waterfront as well.
My husband had the flounder po boy sandwich w/chips. I had the So Gouda roasted turkey sandwich w/ bacon, lettuce, tomato & mango chutney. Both meals were delicious. Prices very reasonable. We will DEFINITELY be back! Thanks for helping to make our day even better with your delicious food & friendly staff.

We ate outside at Plums on January 9, 2026. It was perfect, 75 degrees, and we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch by the water. Our waitress was darling and took great care of us. Our sandwiches (Club Sandwich and Turkey and Pimento) were delicious. Just by being there, we were able to enjoy an hour of Spring in January! We will be back!

I recommend Plum’s Restaurant in Beaufort, SC. The food is good quality at reasonable prices. The restaurant has dog-friendly seating in the patio area. The patio area is highly desirable on days of temperate weather. My wife requested the chicken salad plate but it had sold out by 1:00PM. She had the curried chicken salad which she said was excellent. I had the fried shrimp and an appetizer. It was good. The view from the patio was very nice.

Got the peach pecan salad that was delicious, full of candied pecans. Nice fresh salad with cornbread croutons, creamy goat cheese and tasty peach vinaigrette. Got seated quickly and waited on right away. Sat on the back porch overlooking the water, beautiful setting. Being a vegetarian I do wish they had a veggie sandwich like fried tomatoes . But the salad was very good.
