When I’m planning a trip, I always like to have a list of great restaurants so that when we’re starving and don’t want to think about where to eat we cazzn just refer to the list. When you travel to the coast, if you’re like me you have to have some seafood. Lots of seafood! Today I’m sharing with you some awesome casual seafood restaurants in the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area.
When we travel to Gulf Shores for a soccer tourney, one of our team’s favorite place to go after a game LuLu’s. Fun atmosphere and a with a large menu.
Doc’s Seafood Shack. Another casual spot that’s great place to hit after being on the beach is Doc’s Seafood Shack. Their famous fried fish and a big pot of the best seafood gumbo are must tries! They have great lunch specials as well as raw oysters and cold beer and you can find these and other great restaurants in sites like straight.com. They have a location in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach.
