Must-Visit Restaurants in Gulf Shores & Orange Beach
"Woodside Restaurant is a casual hideaway where the rustic setting complements the tasty food and friendly service. Located on the western side of Gulf State Park, it is a relaxing spot for breakfast, but they also offer lunch and dinner. You can eat in the main dining room, a screened porch – where you’ll find Jenga or Connect 4 on every table – or find a spot outside under the lights and beautiful oak trees."
Mentioned by Florida Hikes
Gulf State Park
"Closest to the cabins, Woodside Restaurant has a woodsy, quiet vibe, with plenty of outdoor seating as well as indoor space for those cooler days. Their creative breakfasts didn’t quite fit our low carb constraints, but the array of salads and sandwiches for lunch and dinner were tempting."

They offer delicious desserts, custom cocktails at the Boat Bar and a waterway view!"

"Best brunch in Gulf Shores or I suppose it’d be the best brunch in Orange Beach, but you know what I mean. They have a HUGE menu and do happen to be a chain, but it’s a small, semi-local chain so definitely worth visiting. What we recommend: If you enjoy a bloody Mary, GET THEIRS!"
