The Hangout – Gulf Shores, ALCome Make a Memory With Us

Hey y’all—welcome to The Hangout. If you’re looking for a place where the music’s always playing, the laughter’s a little louder, and the good vibes never stop, you’ve found it. We’re not just a restaurant—we’re where beach days turn into lifelong memories.

Whether you’re dancing in a foam party, joining a pirate parade with your kiddos, or just soaking up the view with a cold drink in hand, you’re part of our story now. We built this place for families, for beach lovers, for anyone who still believes in the magic of making the most out of every moment.

Come as you are—salty hair, sandy toes, and all. Let the kids run free, let your heart be light, and let us take care of the rest.

We’re so glad you’re here.

— Your friends at The Hangout

Fresh Fun, Served Daily!

Famous for live music, we are also home to the Hangout Music Fest in May, our Pirates & Princesses Breakfast all summer long & the Oyster Cook-Off in November. Always fun with a touch of nostalgia, there’s something for all ages.

Games, dancing, music, contests & entertainment start early in the morning and don’t stop until closing during the summer at The Hangout. The foam machine revs up & kids (even adult-sized) run amuck through an avalanche of foamy bubbles. There’s a gigantic sandbox, a fire pit, a giant shaka hand, a mermaid bar, vintage lunchboxes, rubber duckies, matchbox cars, Pez containers & a 15 foot wishing wall. We have hair braiding & henna tattoos. There is fun for everyone!

Adults mingle at the outdoor bar while grooving to live music from our outdoor stage. Big screen sports & a live DJ are daily attractions. Our large one stop gift shop is an attraction itself!

We have 20+ fun things to do! Our venue is lively & versatile, making it perfect for any occasion. The Hangout would be honored to coordinate all of the essential elements necessary for your event to exceed your expectations.

We will be closed on February 4 to show our support and appreciation for the incredible work of the Gulf Shores Fire Rescue team as we proudly host their annual banquet. 🚒💙 Their bravery, dedication, and commitment to our community deserve to be recognized, and we’re honored to celebrate them as they continue to serve and protect.
We’ll be back to serve you on February 5 at 11am.
