I get such a dopamine rush from trying new coffee shops when traveling…read more My husband and I were headed into Orange Beach to spend the weekend at his parents' condo when we drove past Bad Ass. We immediately knew where we'd be stopping for our coffee today. This is such a cute little shop. They have a great menu with not only coffee, but also smoothies and lemonades. They have the perfect fruity options for a day spent by the beach. We ordered shaken espressos with vanilla and vanilla foam (or cold lava as they call it.) They were so good!! It was so nice to find something close by that we enjoyed that isn't Starbucks! Huge bonus for the fact that they use coffee cubes instead of regular ice cubes. It makes such a difference when you're a slower coffee enjoyer like I am! We will definitely be popping in for our daily dose of java a few more times this trip!

The two speciality lattes we had were so good and the ice cubes made of coffee made it one of the best iced lattes I've had. What put it over the top excellent was the staff. They weee all so great.

They also obviously have coffee which VERY sadly they don't offer whole cream as an option and only have the weak and pathetic half and half so you have to bring your own whole cream if you want a real coffee experience. This place is also full to the brim with lots of retail items so you can shop, drink coffee and eat all in the same space.

Great food, atmosphere, & customer service. First time in from Cleveland & it did not disappoint…read more Got the chai frappe & the buzz bowl with their side of gravy. Really good & are not greedy with their bacon! Highly recommend.

Alabama Sweet Tea specializes in iced tea, biscuits and their merchandise. You purchase your…read moresingle serving of tea in a reusable large Mason jar that includes a lid and straw which is also refillable at a discounted price. They also call their unsweet tea "The Yankee" and I'm most certainly no Yankee and neither was my granny who also drank unsweet tea. This business also has quite a selection of self-branded merchandise and quite a few folks I saw came in just to purchase the merch. They also offer a 10% military discount here as well. This seems like a VERY popular spot and they had a lot of traffic going in and out of their space. This location is at The Wharf in Orange Beach so that also makes this an above average crowded area as there always seem to be a lot of people in this area. The one thing that I really disliked is they have no seating inside or outside their space. Some picnic tables or other type of seating would be really nice and a huge improvement as otherwise you just have to get your food to go. I finally found a picnic table across the street next to The Wharf maintenance building. I find it a very strange practice to be selling biscuits and iced tea without anywhere to sit and enjoy eating your food. The lack of seating doesn't seem to impact the many people that still seem to frequent this spot. Overall the tea I had was good except they were out of lemons and I drink unsweet tea with lemon so that made it less enjoyable. The biscuit was large and a decent example of a biscuit which they also provide you with butter and jelly.

The Cobb salad was fresh, perfectly portioned, and full of flavor with crisp greens and great toppings. The American breakfast platter was hearty and comforting -- everything cooked just right and exactly what you want for a satisfying breakfast. We also tried the cheeseburger, and it did not disappoint: juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. What truly made our visit special, though, was our waiter. The service was outstanding -- friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They made sure we had everything we needed and added such a positive energy to our meal. Great friendly environment. Between the fantastic food and the exceptional service, Brick & Spoon is a must-visit in Orange Beach. We can't wait to come back.
