What a cool place! It uses unique items as part of their decor! The way burger, fries & Gouda grits & sweet tea were excellent. My server, Shay was friendly, professional and attentive. She recommended a signature sauce to use for my fries. Delish! I sat on their deck and was able to enjoy a little more of the beach from a different perspective!

My family and I ate here on a Friday evening, around 7 PM, November 28, 2025. They were not very busy. We were seated pretty quickly. Our server Ava was fairly quick to show up and take our order. We got our drinks quickly. After that, we didn't see her again until someone else delivered our food to us. She asked us how things looked, and kept on walking.

Visited Hangout in the “off season” and had a great experience. Food came out quickly and was fabulous. I recommend the redfish and shrimp and grits. Our waitress Mauve was excellent. Restaurant was clean with a good atmosphere on the front patio.

I had such a great experience at The Hangout on the Beach in Gulf Shores! Our waiter, TJ, was absolutely amazing—friendly, kind, funny, and very informative. His menu suggestions were spot on, and he made the whole experience even better. I truly wish him and his fiancée nothing but the best in their future endeavors. The overall vibe of the restaurant was awesome—fun, energetic, and welcoming. I loved seeing the staff and birthday guests dancing on the tables, which made the atmosphere feel like a celebration. They also have live music at night, which just adds to the fun beachy vibe. The food was fresh and delicious! We ordered the spinach dip, seafood boil, and salad, and everything was fantastic. One thing to note: parking is limited since it’s shared with the beach, so be prepared to
