Roxbury Mercantile: Fresh Seafood and Local Flavors Awaits You

The Roxbury Mercantile is one of our favorite places to eat dinner during our annual trip to Edisto. The service is great, and the food is always fresh and flavorful! My boys love the wings as a starter. The burgers and chicken sandwich are delicious according to them. I always get the fried shrimp and flounder. The crust is so light yet crisp with a perfect hint of cornmeal and salt. The sides are fantastic- made from local produce and staples (think grits). It’s always a treat to sit outside and enjoy the summer breeze and sometimes live music. Can’t wait to get back to the Roxbury!

The food was incredible, especially the seafood! The service was great all the way from being greeted at the door and seated through the ordering and service of food. Pro tip #1 - The entrees contain a lot of food. Trust me, you won't walk away hungry. So consider not filling up on too many appetizers. Pro tip #2 - If you like dessert, I would suggest planning in advance and watch what you order for apps and entrees. If you don't, there may not be enough room for dessert. Although you can order dessert to go!

Ate here tonight food was solid. I got fried flounder platter, wife got shrimp and grits both were fresh. Collards and red peas sides were both awesome

We ate at the Roxbury during our recent vacation in Edisto. We were very impressed by the quality of the food and ingredients as well as their gluten free offerings. We had the Fried Green Tomato’s (w/ corn meal), Fish Tacos, and their Veggie Platter with a mix of sides ranging from red rice to sea island red peas - all were delicious! They use a lot of local ingredients which really highlights the area which we enjoyed. We found their pricing to be very reasonable especially considering this isn’t just an everything “fried” kind of place. Being gluten free has made eating out a chore, the Roxbury brought joy back to dining again! Their service was attentive and very well versed with their menu and ingredients. Their food isn’t overdone or fussy - their menu is centered on pure ingredients that are well prepared and delicious. They have a nice dining room and a wonderful patio with great air movement for the hot and buggy days. My only wish is that their She Crab soup was gluten free as I’m sure it is probably amazing too!

Happened upon this foodie paradise while spending time at Edisto Beach. Everything we ordered was perfectly prepared and service was also excellent. This is a "do not miss" stop!

Lara was amazing while taking care of our large party of 16. With recommendations on drinks, appetizers, and entrees, we enjoyed our evening. The honeysuckle crush, blackberry old fashion, tacos, fried green tomatoes, and she crab soup were among the favorites. Thank you for a wonderful dinner. We plan to come back next time we are in town.

My wife and I had a really nice time at Roxbury Mercantile. Took the corvette out for a Saturday drive and we passed it on the way to Edisto. We thought we'd stop for a late lunch on the way back and we're glad we did. Great place to have a lazy lunch out on the patio. The food was good and the service was great and all at a good price. I had the shrimp creole, my wife had the shrimp sandwich, both of which we thoroughly enjoyed. We had to try the lemonade blueberry cake. Delicious. Our server was personable and efficient. We definitely have it on the list to go back.
