I ventured into Coastal Outfitters last week to find my hubby a pair of sunglasses for his…read morebirthday. They don't sell Costas, but they do have a couple of other brands with polarized lenses, including a brand called Reflekt which has a great warranty. They also float. I opted to get those instead of going elsewhere for Costas. If he breaks or scratches them, we can pay $35 and send them in to be replaced as many times as necessary. If he loses them, they will replace them one time for $35. Not to mention, these sunglasses were about $50 less than the Costas that looked almost exactly the same. The store employees were very friendly and helpful. I was in and out of there within about 20 minutes. I noticed a large variety of clothing, coolers, and such. This would be a great place to shop for any man in your life.

The hinge broke before we were out of the parking lot. The Coastal Outfitters refused to stand behind the falsely advertised product and exchange for same item. My three year old left crying all the way to the car. Do not buy anything from Coastal Outfitters!

Cobblestone streets, music being piped through outdoor speakers, water fountains, flowers…read moreeverywhere and adorable little shops? Are you somewhere in heaven? Yes, pretty much. Welcome to Fairhope's French Quarter. Ahh, this little slice of heaven is in the middle of the beautiful little town of Fairhope. Getting to it is just as nice as being there. It's a pretty drive up and down hilly tree lined streets where duck and geese crossings aren't uncommon. Parking was a little challenging since I wasn't familiar with the area (yet, trust me I came here multiple times on my visit, so I learned quickly) but once I found it, it was a breeze and there are plenty of places to park for free. Once you're inside there so much to see and do, not unlike the New Orleans FQ but on a much smaller and less smelly scale. Cute little shops with clothing, books, restaurants, novelties and art. It's totally worth a visit or twenty and I highly recommend checking it out for yourself. I know I'll be back!

This is nothing like the New Orleans French Quarter. First off it is way cleaner and smells far…read morebetter. This area is also significantly safer than New Orleans. Now I can see how they were going for a gimmick marketing play here but they missed some elements. The restaurants and businesses here offer nothing French I saw and nothing that resembles New Orleans French Quarter. Panani Pete's offers Italian Panani sandwiches so this seems more like the Italian Quarter. Now parts of the New Orleans French Quarter were known as Little Italy or Little Palermo during the late 19th and early 20th Centuries as so many Sicilian immigrants lived in the French Quarter so maybe the theme is back to that era? The HUGE missing elements here are that they have no ability to allow you to carry your booze about everywhere like properly civilized humans should and they force closing times without any 24/7 establishments serving libations as a joy focused culture should. So I just don't get any sort of French Quarter vibe or joie de vivre required for a place to claim French Quarter status. Perhaps I'm missing something?

I had the best experience at Eastern Shore Eye Care on Lollie Lane in Fairhope!…read more Sarah at the desk greeted me with the most cheerful smile--she's genuinely the happiest receptionist I've ever met and couldn't have been more helpful. Simone, the technician, walked me through a ton of tests, stayed low-key, patient, and totally put me at ease. Then Dr Lindsey answered every single question, super cool and hip, understood me perfectly--fun yet brilliant. Jenni in the boutique hooked me up with these gorgeous Chloe frames I've wanted forever... splurged even though they don't take my insurance. Worth every penny. I cannot wait to pick them up when they are ready! Andrea at checkout made it all seamless. Hands down, best eye care on the Eastern Shore and Absolutely the BEST selection of designer glasses and sunnies around! Gucci, Tom Ford, YSL, Tiffany, CHLOE, Prada, Versace, and other brands like Coach, Kate Spade, Michal Kors, Maui Jim, Ray Ban, Oakley, etc etc.

They falsely advertised and have fraudulent billing practices. They charged more than I was told…read morethey would which was $29 for a special eye exam. I only wanted an exam for glasses but they have a mandatory special exam $29.00 that is not covered by insurance. I left paying $84. I had the same exact exam without the special exam at another Lens Crafters in 2024 and while they offered the special exam, it was not required. They also charged for what they called a medical diagnosis. The doctor never looked in my eyes for dry eye or anything else, nor did she prescribe anything. Her diagnosis was solely based on what I told her not what she found herself. Also, she stopped the exam and was talking to me. Thinking the exam was over, I lightly touched and moved the machine back ever so gently. You'd think I broke something the way she yelled at me. I'm guessing I was charged more because I touched her machine. I've never been treated so poorly, both by the doctor and the person checking out, after I started questioning her about the charges and comparing them to an eye exam at the Airport Blvd. location last year. I would have gone back to that location who's doctor was wonderful however they no longer do eye exams.
