End Your Golf Game

At One of These Spots

April 25, 2022

Is there anything better than heading to the stereotypical 19th hole following a fantastic round of golf? Perhaps you are celebrating a career-best round or simply looking forward to reminiscing on an entertaining game with friends and family. Finding the perfect spot to relax and indulge in delicious local cuisine and a few of your favorite drinks is equally as important as finding the ideal golf course. 

The beauty of many courses on the Gulf Coast is that they offer on-site dining options that are excellent for relaxing before, during, and after your round of golf. Whether you are intrigued by the prospect of sampling the Gulf Coast’s iconic local seafood fare, or perhaps you simply want to dine somewhere that you can enjoy those stereotypical Alabama coastline sunsets, the options are endless. 
 
Both Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are home to a plethora of locations that offer everything you and your golfing buddies could wish for to enjoy the perfect 19th Hole experience.

Enjoy the 19th Hole at the Course

Peninsula Golf & Racquet Club

For the golfers wishing to stay and enjoy a few aperitifs or enjoy “on course” dining, many of the courses along the Gulf Coast offer excellent clubhouse dining experiences. The Peninsula Golf and Racquet Club restaurant is open seven days a week and epitomizes everything there is to love about the ambiance throughout the golf course. This spot offers some of the most spectacular panoramic views of the course and is the perfect place to enjoy a Spiked Arnold Palmer or Smoked Old Fashioned while reliving some of those memorable shots.

Kiva Grill at Kiva Dunes

The bar and grill at Craft Farms is an equally enticing prospect, with the clubhouse overlooking Cotton Creek’s 18th green. It also offers decadent cuisine options, from the Baldwin Berry Salad featuring prosciutto, hand-cut greens, and praline pecans to the Smash Shot Burger, one of the most popular menu items.
 
Kiva Grill provides a comprehensive menu for golfers to enjoy after a round at Kiva Dunes while enjoying breathtaking views of this links-style course. If you are staying on property here, this is the perfect 19th Hole experience to relax and enjoy a selection of “on the rocks” cocktails, frozen drinks, and draft beers.

Enjoy Off-Site 19th Hole Experiences

Beach Club Gulf Shores

If you are looking for the perfect spot to enjoy a coastal 19th Hole experience and are staying at The Beach Club by Spectrum Resorts, head over to Coast Restaurant to enjoy indoor or outdoor dining with the freshest seafood dishes and epic views overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. 
 
Located close to both Peninsula Golf and Racquet Club and Kiva Dunes along the Fort Morgan peninsula, The Beach Club offers both golfers and non-golfers the opportunity to get back together to enjoy a post-round eclectic dining experience. The outdoor veranda is an ideal spot to enjoy a selection of cuisine from the finest ingredients on the Gulf, while the cocktail and wine menus have something for everyone to relax. 

GTs on the Bay Orange Beach

Golfers who ventured out to Orange Beach Golf Center to hit the range before dinner should consider heading to GTs on the Bay to enjoy some of Orange Beach’s finest seafood dishes. The outdoor patio frequently offers live entertainment, while the views of Wolf Bay are certainly some of the finest along the Gulf Coast, especially during the golden hour prior to sunset. Enjoy GTs Rum Punch or the signature Tropic Thunder served in a pineapple to enhance your experience.
 
A trip to Lost Key Golf Club not only rewards golfers with a high-quality course but just a few miles along the coast is one of the Gulf Coast’s signature dining spots - Cobalt, The Restaurant. With stunning panoramic views overlooking Perdido Key from the outdoor seating area, this waterfront dining experience is what epitomizes everything there is to love about a golfing getaway on the Gulf Coast.

Big Beach Brewing Gulf Shores

Big Beach Brewing Company is another great option if you are simply looking for a spot to enjoy a few beers after the round. The open-air taproom offers plenty of comfortable seating options for everyone in your group to relax and sample the best craft brews on the Gulf Coast. If you happen to have a non-drinker in the group, they can entertain sampling Pensacola-made Big Jerk Soda to enjoy the experience.
 
While golfers cannot help but fall in love with the myriad of amazing golf courses this stretch of coastline has to offer, the 19th hole experience is one that is equally eye-catching. Regardless of how you played on the golf course, you can be sure that by visiting one of the many fantastic restaurants or bars, you will quickly forget about the golf and instead enjoy delicious food in a friendly atmosphere.

Ready to try out all of these incredible restaurants? Start planning your next golf vacation to Alabama’s beaches.
