1. Visited The Hangout Gulf Shores on August 13,2024 and I would have to say it didn’t live up to the hype we thought it was. We started off with some drinks I had the bushwhacker which I will give a 10/10 that was top notch. My wife ordered the shark attack which was okay 8/10. For meals I had the lifeguard burger meal which is topped with 2 patties, egg, onions, pickles, cheese, and a brioche bun served with fries. The burger honestly wasn’t anything special it was extremely greasy and messy to eat. My wife had the shrimp platter again it’s nothing special or brag about it’s just shrimp and fries. For those four items it was $76. I honestly can’t justify that price of the meal even in today’s society but the tourist will always pay. The views were great of the beach front it seems like they have a lot more going on at night and I would love to experience it but we’ll have to give it another go.

2. On Saturday, around 1 p.m., we got a nice window-side table that was great for the sun and wind. The restaurant was kind of crowded, but there was no waiting time to get seated. It took about 30 minutes or more to order, and there were no servers around, which was long.
   The food was all decent 😉 we loved the pork belly nachos, which had a delicious BBQ sauce and cheese flavor.
   Overall good vibes and food.
   The last, The bathroom was kind of dirty 🥲

3. The Shaka Burger was delish! The atmosphere is kid-centric with foam parties at the top of the hour and games on the :30. They do have you pay $20 to park in their lot, however you get a $20 voucher to spend in their gift shop so it evens out. Much easier to park in their lot than the beach lots surrounding the location. A big + for us is they are dog friendly at the outdoor tables and areas! Would definitely come back!

4. We came to The Hangout at the request of our 8 year old. I was hoping we’d see the foam/bubble party but never did. I’m assuming it’s a night fine event, and we were there for lunch. I think it would be helpful to give some details about the family fun items on your website. Like when would be best to come to really get the most of the visit.

   The service was amazing! We were seated right away, and our waitress was very attentive and helpful. She made sure we never ran out of sweet tea, and we were well taken care of
   Our food came quickly. I was impressed with the burger, and my husband’s dish was excellent as well.
   My son ate his Mac&Cheese without complaint.
   The restaurant had lots of fun things to look at and even a word search on the table.
   There was a very impressive store inside The Hangout to purchase souvenirs.
   Right before we left, they had people stand on tables if it was their birthday. They sand and staff even did the Macarena. My kids thought that was great.

5. We had 20 people upon arrival to be seated. The hostess wouldn’t even attempt to get us seated until every single person in our party was standing in front of her. She had an attitude and was very difficult to talk to. We had several people in our party with handicaps, and lots of children, so rounding them all up and having them stand and wait was a nightmare. But we finally got seated, only to find out they didn’t get us enough seating, so after what seemed like forever we were given two big tables to accommodate our crew. After that everything was great. Kids had fun standing on the tables. I enjoyed the gift shop. A little pricey, but I got two of my favorite sweatshirts there. The prices are high, but the portions are good and the food was delicious. I had the bama burger. I ate the whole thing, which I later regretted . But it was the best burger I’ve had in a while
