We are growing and expanding our family restaurant! Come back soon to check for updates!

Welcome to Driftwood Diner, a beloved breakfast spot designed for the island community we cherish. Nestled in the iconic former Lucy Bell’s Café space on Daufuskie Island, Driftwood Diner was established with one clear goal: to serve exceptional diner food with genuine hospitality in a welcoming environment that feels like home.
As a small, family-run restaurant with deep local roots, we are proud to be operated by people who live here, raise our children here, and truly care about the heartbeat of this island. Our menu is intentionally simple, featuring breakfast sandwiches piled high, fresh made biscuits, burritos that keep you satisfied until dinner, and seasonal delights like our berry-glazed biscuits and Papa’s Butter. We focus on mastering a few dishes and serving them consistently, with warmth and pride.
What makes Driftwood Diner stand out is not just the food. It’s the way neighbors pause to chat on the porch. It’s the regulars who know their favorites before they even step inside. It’s visitors who experience the essence of the island through a delicious breakfast and friendly conversation. It’s about being part of a close-knit community where service holds real meaning.
As we continue to grow, we remain dedicated to being a positive influence in Daufuskie life: collaborating with other local businesses, supporting island events, and providing both residents and visitors with a welcoming place to gather, eat, and feel at home.
Whether you're starting your day with a bike ride, grabbing a biscuit on your way to work, or enjoying a leisurely morning with friends, Driftwood Diner is here for you.
Good food, good people, island pace. That’s Driftwood.
