    Coast Restaurant is a full-service restaurant with epic views of the Gulf of Mexico. This family-friendly restaurant truly has excellent food.

    We have had the pleasure of dining at Coast restaurant multiple times, and each time has been amazing. Our recent visit was hosted by Spectrum Resorts, and we are so thankful to partner with them.

    I always feel a sense of excitement on the drive out to Coast Restaurant. It is a little bit of a ways outside of Gulf Shores heading to Fort Morgan and as we drive I get more and more excited for the good food I know we are about to enjoy.

    The restaurant feels like a bit of a hidden oasis in the middle of a large resort. The size of the restaurant is comfortable and cozy.

    The tables are set in a way that you don't feel like you are right next to anyone. There is enough space that you can have a great conversation and not be overwhelmed by the noise of other tables.

    Coast is the perfect date-night restaurant. From the oysters on the half shelf to the casual romance and elegance of the atmosphere, it is the perfect restaurant for a romantic night out on vacation or if you are a local to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach.

    If you want a spectacular casual dining experience and tremendous beachfront views you will love Coast Restaurant at the Beach Club Resort and Spa.

    Outdoor Dining at Coast offers amazing views overlooking the clubhouse pool and the Gulf Coast of Mexico. Enjoy the breeze off the water and epic views while enjoying your dinner.

    We do suggest packing a light jacket or sweater so you are prepared when the sun goes down and the temperatures drop a bit.

    The last thing you want to do is shiver over your incredible dinner and not be able to enjoy every bite.

    The 2,700-square-foot veranda has some of the best outdoor seating in the area! The ambiance at sunset is unbelievable.
