Goose Creek’s food scene includes some of the usual suspects for your dining interests:   sports pubs to Mexican to barbecue, the city offers a variety of choices for any palate.

A great place to start is Stones Throw Brewing offering a full menu wth dishes such as seared steak poutine, a large variety of salads and delicious wings.  And be sure to check out the large selection of local brews on tap.

Sapphire’s Bar & Grill, a casual sports bar offering tasty appetizers like seared tuna, fried shrimp, bacon-wrapped scallops and even fried cauliflower, broccoli and zucchini, as well as burgers, sandwiches and salads. But the big draw here is the variety of boneless Buffalo wings and sauces.

For authentic Mexican food, try Taqueria La Mexicana, a classic hole-in-the-wall restaurant best known for its carnitas and chorizo burritos. How authentic is it? Most of the friendly staff at this family-owned restaurant speak little English, but customers always manage to get their menu message across.  Also be sure to check out another great Mexican option in Los Arcos

If smoothies and healthy beverages are your thing, check out Juiceria Smoothie Bar and Café, specializing in combinations of sandwiches or wraps with fruit and veggie smoothies. Try the Tropikale smoothie (yes, with kale) and a Caesar chicken wrap for a healthful lunch.

Bottom line: no one goes hungry in Goose Creek, no matter their taste.
