Buffett Makes Surprise Visit to Margaritaville in Myrtle Beach
June 6th, 2005
Jimmy Buffett made a surprise visit to his Margaritaville restaurant in Myrtle Beach on Tuesday.
Buffett made a visit to Margaritaville on Tuesday morning, surprising the staff and a few customers dining at the Broadway at the Beach restaurant in Myrtle Beach, according to a restaurant manager.
Buffett, who’s known for surprise visits, went through the restaurant’s kitchen and mostly interacted with the staff, said Joe DeLuca, assistant general manager at Margaritaville. He told staffers he’d be back in the fall, he said.
“He was in and out in about an hour’s time,” DeLuca said. “He walked around the restaurant, shook hands. His sole purpose was to meet the staff and let them know he’s thinking about us and that he’s still alive.”
