While staying at the Lodge at Gulf State Park, we took full advantage of the beautiful bike trails — 28 miles of them! — to start every day. One morning we decided to end our ride with breakfast at the Woodside Grill. It’s quite unique — feels rustic, but very clean. They have a cool (temperature) inside where you place your order and get your drinks. You can sit inside too, but we were sweaty from our bike ride (this was a hot July day) and opted to sit on their covered and shaded screened porch with fans moving the air. It felt great at 9:30 a.m. They also have a nice large outdoor seating area with those patio lights that I am sure is perfect for evenings. I saw some corn hole boards, badminton nets and other games too. The food was very good — we have promised to come back for dinner and drinks one night — they have live music many nights as well. If you find yourself in Gulf Shores, you need to check this place out! You can drive or be adventurous and take your bike.

You order at the front, they hand you a number, then bring your food to you. You get your own drinks, which is sort of nice. I would say 3 stars because it was fairly overpriced for the underwhelming quality of the food.

I had double cheeseburger with chips. It was a little pricey but plenty to eat. Also, it is close enough to walk from the cabins. Very nice staff. The music playlist seemed early 80s with songs from groups like Toto, Journey, and Air Supply. Funny!

Great little place to eat. Layout is a little confusing. Go to counter to order and seat. Large groups were in there so seating was tight. She got the Eagle loop English muffin, I got mouse tail sandwich. We also got a order of French toast which is awesome. Food was great, would definitely return.

Had the Classic Club, Mac and Cheese, and Salad. The Club sandwich was great. Crispy bread with just the right amount of butter, tasty bacon, veggies, turkey/ham. I was disappointed to find one slice of cheap pre-cut cheese, a nice extra sharp cheddar or gouda would’ve fit the sandwich better. Home made potato chips were good. The salad was okay, very simple. Mac and Cheese was tasty, with lots of warm melted cheese (dip your chips/sandwich in the extra). Lemonade was mediocre. Very friendly staff (you wait your own table) and a great location.

The Blackened Tuna Tacos are to die for! This is an amazing little restaurant to stop and grab some lunch or dinner. Just a neat, quiet little place to eat and the prices are very reasonable for how amazing the food was. Highly, highly recommend!

The place was nice and beautiful. Very clean. The staff was nice. They are pet friendly, you eat outside on the patio unless you have a service dog, then you can eat either place. That option was great. The food was way overpriced. The food was okay, but for just sandwiches and tenders, we weren’t expecting to pay $50. Anyway, it was a nice place just way overpriced.
