“Love this place! We were here for a week and it was great for our family of 5. The kids loved going back and forth from the pool to the beach everyday and there is a grocery store right across the street which was very convenient!”

“Great Scallops and Pork Bellies wonderful.”

“The service is excellent, the food and drinks are delicious, and the view is stunning.”

“VERY impressed! I work in food service, for nearly 18 years, and the manager or owner maybe came out from the kitchen and greeted us, as they were very busy. He was very pleasant and got us seated quickly, the server was kind and brought everything very quickly. The food was TERRIFIC, huge portions, hand battered, great quality, absolutely crazy delicious idea with the grouper Ruben! The vibe, the whole thing was just really great and I would and will definitely recommend and certainly be back!”

“The white fish was amazing! I don’t like fish but my husband ordered the “all you can eat white fish”. The seasoning was amazing. For me to say it was good, you have to trust me, it was good. Usually, the smell of fish makes my stomach turn. 😂”

“The shrimp was amazing! It really was the best shrimp on earth!”

“We walked in, saw the car & we asked can we sit at the car table and we were immediately seated. Brittany S. was our server and was fabulous. She was pleasant, smiled, joked with us & checked on our needs on a regular basis. When we were done eating, we asked if she would take our picture with the car and she said sure! We asked for a couple of angles and she happily did it! The food was excellent, came quickly and there was a lot of it. We enjoyed everything about our experience!”

“We were told to visit Happy Pappy’s by a local couple and we are so glad we did! Great coffee and atmosphere! You can tell it is a local favorite for sure, gives that small town feeling in a big city and we love that! Highly recommend!”

“LOVE this place:) had the tuna poke & it was ?? Jinny was incredible!”

“We were in GS late June, early July. The only place on my list to go was Wacked Out Weiner! The name alone caught my attention, but it was definitely the prices that really pulled me in! Sadly, we arrived right at closing and I didn’t want to go in with 8 people. That’s just not who we are. We went next door and ate (it was awful), but when we came out, the owner greeted us on the sidewalk. We explained that we came by to visit but it was 7:03! He looked at us like we were crazy and said “YOU SHOULD’VE CAME IN!. I would’ve opened the door for you.” Then, he asked if we wanted to come in and look around. The door was locked and the lights were off and he didn’t even hesitate to open the doors and let us come in and look! He was the most genuine person we have met in the years we’ve been visiting GS! We told him we would be back and the next night, we did! He was hilarious, polite and down to earth! He genuinely cares about his customers! Wacked Out Weiner will forever be in our plans when we visit! The food, atmosphere and owners were top notch! Don’t sleep on the Weiner! Find it, load it and swallow it! Ya won’t be disappointed! 🌭”

“Didn't eat. Just hung out in the sandy outside area. A typical bar, but it has a local feel and the bartenders are good at their job. Highly recommended as a place that is affordable, local and off the tourist path.”

“The OmG poboy was delicious. Shrimp perfectly fried and super fresh! Even the lettuce and tomato tasted like it came from the garden. The tomato was perfect. I loved the sample of swamp soup, also delicious. I wanted to taste the gumbo, it also did not disappoint! Hush puppies perfectly flavored. Fries and okra fresh. Service was friendly, wait time was appropriate. Highly recommend. It does have an old vibe to the building. I’m guessing it was an Asian restaurant prior. Overall absolutely amazing, it’s definitely on my return restaurants in Foley.”

“Ice cream serving size is HUGE.
Flavor was really good and the costumer service was great!!
Loved the choice of music and the amount of seating outside”

“Great Price, Quality, Service, variety etc. shrimp come large, jumbo and Big daddy all of which are huge. They offer 3 seasoning levels depending on your taste. Remoulade sauce and seasoned garlic butter sauce was fantastic. 10/10!”

“Huge portions for an affordable price! One of our kids is a super picky eater and LOVED it! We love even more that its family owned and you can tell in the food for sure!”

“I’m a big fan of Beach Girls! I’m from Iowa but spend my Christmas in Gulf Shores area They have a fun and tasty holiday menu and the girls are so friendly and welcoming when you order. I always get my favorite coffee drinks from beach girls. Thanks for making the holidays special”

“I highly recommend Kitty's! It is a wonderful home-style restaurant with a welcoming staff and incredible food. Every item on the menu is delicious, and their sides are truly exceptional. 😍”

“this is a must go place for our family vacations and not just once...we go several times. best cones ever and friendly staff.”

“great unique flavors very nice and pleasant stuff would definitely go back.”

“Super fast and so friendly! This is amazing Greek food. The falafel and chicken pitas were fantastic! This was our first time in Gulf Shores and to have such a wonderful lunch on our last day was superb! Thank you”

“We came in today- Sunday- for the first time, and had amazing service from the moment we stepped in the door until we walked out. Breakfast only today, and everything we ordered was delicious and came out exactly as ordered. My kids loved their pancakes and bacon and I had the blue plate special with one of their homemade biscuits. Great food, and top notch service. We will definitely make this place a stop every year when we come to town!”

“The food was some of the best we’ve ever had! The vermicelli bowl is so hard to find and it was soooo delish! The staff was so friendly and we will definitely be back!”

“Last week I called to order for a customers job site, spoke with Natalie and from the first call to her arriving on the site, everything was absolute top notch! I had 130 people to feed and was worried to be honest, but the communication, the service, and of course the food itself, went above and beyond my expectations! For anyone looking to feed a crowd, give them a chance, you will not be disappointed!”

“Great pizza. One of the best I have had.”

“We ate here while on vacation and it was definitely the best burgers that my family and I had ever eaten by far!!! Highly recommended for sure. 👍”

“Literally the BEST customer service in all of Gulf Shores. The owner Maggie is so sweet, friendly, and a true blessing- she takes such pride and joy in her establishment and it shows! Trust me- make the stop here! funkie monkey (add nutella) and a southern nights! fantastic!”

“Great service, good food, and a great bar atmosphere. I'd go back for sure.

The food was good but skip the mozzarella sticks. The burger was as big as the menu showed and try the martini but swap the vodka for tequila.”

“Delicious Ice cream!!! Very friendly staff and clean facility! ❤️ We will be back when we visit 🙌🏻”

“We stopped here today and the food was great!! The prices are even better. The cinnamon roll was AMAZING. The latte was perfection.”

“One of favorite lunch places. I always order the Asada street tacos. And on weekends the chicken tamales. Never a disappointment. Great value, fast service and the staff are always polite and friendly.”

“Absolutely fantastic. Tons of options for ice cream, but I have to try milkshakes everywhere I go. Once I saw that they use real peanut butter straight out of the jar, I had to try the Reese's Peanut Butter Milkshake. One of the best milkshakes I've ever had and I've had some good ones. Great customer service too. The worker was by himself but didn't allow himself to be rushed through making the perfect milkshake. Not sure of his name but whoever was working the afternoon of the 13th of September, great job.”

“It was fabulous! They provide everything except the stove! Loved it!”

“This ice cream was so yummy! We loved that you could customize it. The owner was so friendly and patient with our kids. A true mom and pop store! We will definitely be back next year!”

“Club was amazing! Wife got the French dip and loved it. Definitely going back before we leave for home.”

“I visited Brookman’s Smokehouse for the first time yesterday. I found myself taking home some of their Big Daddy Pork Chops & Smoked Salmon. My family was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed my purchase. Next visit, we will definitely plan ahead & place a customized order the day before.”

“Great food and excellent atmosphere”

“We stayed just down the road from this little gem while on vacation in July. 10/10 recommend! We came home with bracelets, tees and stationary from them as well 🤍”

“Best coffee and ice cream on the island! Also best service!”

“The absolute best BBQ, This will be a spot revisit everytime we vacation this area!”

“Mrs Sheila was a QUEEEENNN! Amazing customer service, the sweetest soul, and such an adorable shop. 10/10 would recommend!!🤘🏻☺️😝💕”

“Cute drink place but a bit pricey for what it is. Also they use very cheap chocolate on the bushwackers. The guy I presumed was the owner was nice. However there is NO parking! & the pit bull security for the restaurant next door will literally follow your car.”

“Coffee was, sit out the beautiful deck! Great place to chill out!”

“We went early on a Sunday but they were already packed. I can see why. Fun little place with a duck theme (go figure). The food was well prepared and good size portions. You shouldn’t leave hungry. The hostess seemed a little timid and inexperienced. I’m sure she will get better with practice. The rest of the staff was hustling and everybody seemed to enjoy it. It is a little small. It could probably be double the size and still stay full. There would be no room to park though. It’s probably a safe bet that if you can get a parking spot you shouldn’t have to wait long for a seat.”

“This is more of a clubhouse than a bar. It's a nice place for the residents of One Club but I wouldn't recommend it as bar for the public to visit. I visited on a Saturday night and they had line dancing lessons. I would think they would have this during the afternoon and not during the night when people just want to drink, listen to good music,and have a good time. The only thing that was great was the service. Cha Cha was one of the best bartenders I've experienced in the area.”

“Cute drink place but a bit pricey for what it is. Also they use very cheap chocolate on the bushwackers. The guy I presumed was the owner was nice. However there is NO parking! & the pit bull security for the restaurant next door will literally follow your car.”

“So, this is a spot to go, get your chicken and sides, pay at the counter, and go. It’s inside Pier 33, which is a solid stop.

This is your typical convenience store but it’s complete with a fried chicken + sides option.

I recommend for a one or twice stop. You don’t wanna live on this while you’re in town.”

“We had a great dinner at Tide & Table on our last night in the Gulf Shores area. Our experience started with fast and friendly valet parking from Sid outside the entrance to the hotel. Valet parking is complimentary for diners. Our food and service were amazing. We shared the Conecuh Sausage Broiled Oysters as an appetizer. I couldnt resist dessert, and their key lime pie is one of the best I’ve had in the area. We would definitely go back!”

“Thank you, Mrs. Fields, for your after-sales customer service. Even when it was the delivery service's mess, Mrs. Fields stepped up and assisted. Keep up making the world a sweeter place.”

“I luv coming hear everyday 4 my daily deenar”

“Our teas and our kiddos waters taste just like home!!!! 10/10 ⭐️”

“Delicious Americano, not too bitter or acidic 😃”

“My husband and I stopped in here and enjoyed beignets for breakfast. The lady behind the counter who took our order was very friendly and provided excellent service. The beignets were absolutely delicious and we will be going here again before we leave to head home. Highly recommended.”

“The burger is one of the best I’ve had!! (I’m a burger snob) I got it slightly medium. Fresh & delicious!! Upgrade to fries as they are seasoned & crispy Highly recommended.”

“TCBY has always been a favorite of mine but they closed all the locations near our home. Finding this on vacation was the icing on our beach vacation cake! The parfaits are a family fave!”

“This place did not disappoint, I will be back for sure!”

“The two shucker Javien and Dominiken were so charming and sweet. 10/10 recommend sitting at the oyster bar🫶”

“We love staying at The Lodge! We especially love that they added the family pool this summer! Wonderful addition! We just left earlier this week, and were so sad 😭 Our vacation was fun and relaxing! Thank you to the staff for making our family vacation so special every summer! 🏖️”

“Took my 21 yo daughter and her friend for HH and it was AWESOME. Every item on the HH menu is delicious and a DEAL. Fabulous HH cocktails, too, very cute interior, and our server Jaime was delightful. Look forward to returning!”

“wonderful wait staff, fun atmosphere, reasonable prices and delicious food!! We'll be back!!”

“The food was very tasteful and served fast. The menu offers different options I haven’t seen in other restaurants including some authentic dishes. I tried marinated fajita steak called Arrachera estilo el Rey and it was delicious.”

“Love dippin' dots, colder the better..would like a greater selection..”

“Great food and a great staff they gave my father who is a veteran a discount on our bill today. Thank you so much. Ps my dad is 81 years old and hard for him to get around.”

“The food was amazing! Service was great. The food reminded me of my home cooking. So delicious! E we will definitely be back.!”

“I got the crab cakes. My husband got a tuna burger, which actually ended up being the first fish he's eaten that he actually likes. Crab cakes were delicious as well. The staff was super kind and even checked up on us to make sure the sandwich was to my husband's liking. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting!!”

“Great place for live music and oysters.”

“The biggest highlight is the staff! They are amazing, entertaining, friendly, ect.. I could go on and on. Now to the food! Never had a bad meal at this location! So fresh amd hot and most importantly delicious! Every time we visit Gulf Shores, we eat here, almost every day! The staff will get your day started on the best foot ever!”

“great pizza, great staff and clean restraint. My new favorite pizza place.”

“7/11/21 The crew working this evening should all get bonuses!! I have never seen a place so packed, inside and out, drive thru and nonstop Doordash. I was in the restaurant industry for a long time and probably would have walked out if I would have been working at Zaxby’s tonight. Not one time did I see an employee not smiling and providing 💯 customer service. Give them a raise boss!! Congratulations on hiring great employees! 🎉 🙌🏻 😎👍”

“expensive but good milkshakes!”

“Later evening dinner stop after golfing. Amanda was full of menu and drink suggestions, all of which made our bellies happy. I had a smash burger which was juicy and flavorful. The curly French fries were different, but crisp and delicious. Hubs had the gulf shrimp basket which was fresh and plentiful. Drinks were tasty and potent! I understand it's off season, but this place should be busier with the quality and value of the food they're serving. Give them a visit!”

“Mud Bugs, words cannot describe how much you mean to me. I had the greatest experience of my life in this establishment. From karaoke to the t shirts, mud bugs is a slice of heaven. I yearn to go back, thank you Mud Bugs.”

“Always clean, hot food and the employees are very friendly. One of our favorite places to eat!”
