Marine Corps Exchange Restaurant, Parris Island
Marine Corps Exchange (MCX) Food Court
Building 409
Parris Island, SC 29905
One of the great things about eating at the MCX Food Court is looking around the store after you eat. It’s nice to shop and let your stomach rest after having a huge quesadilla, or a burger and french fries. The quesadilla is so big, we usually get one and split it. If you need to wash up after walking around the base, there are rest rooms located close by. You can order then wash up and your food will be ready before you know it. Remember that on Family Day all of the eating establishments on base become crowded very quickly so get there early if you can.
Entrance to Subway and the Bowling Center
Subway, Parris Island
Building 203, Samoa Street
Parris Island, SC 29905
This Subway does an excellent job of feeding lots of people as quickly as possible on Family Day. I especially like the salads. You can have any of the meats they put on a sandwich in your salad. Choose lettuce, spinach, and shredded cheese, then add all of the veggies you like. They have places to sit inside and out but get there early to avoid long lines.

The Sand Trap Grill has more menu items than Brick’s but it is much farther away, on the southern tip of Parris Island so be sure to allow yourself enough time to make it there, eat and make it back in time. They have Patty Melts, club sandwiches, hot dogs and my favorite, chicken fingers. You can order the items separately or as a combo with fries and a drink.
