Welcome to Big Daddy's Grill
Since 2007, Big Daddy's Grill has been Fairhope's easygoing waterfront hangout on the banks of Fish River. Tie up at the dock or park the truck, then settle in for cold drinks, fresh Gulf seafood, and a river view that does most of the talking. Half the fun is deciding whether to arrive by water or by road.

Not Just Seafood, Y'all
Our fried crab claws get all the glory, and plenty of folks make the drive just for them. But if seafood's not calling your name, we've got burgers, sandwiches, wings, hushpuppies, and more. There's an honest, made-to-order plate here for everybody at the table.

From the Menu
Live Music, River Breeze
Kick back on the covered patio while boaters, bikers, families, and locals swap stories over live music. Inside or out, you get the Fish River view and that slow Baldwin County pace built right in. We're closed Wednesdays and hungry the rest of the week, so come on out.
Planning a Get-Together?
Got a crowd? We can seat parties of 20 or more right here by the river. Bring the family reunion, the birthday bunch, or the whole boat crew, and we'll handle the food, the cold drinks, and the good time. Just give us a call at (251) 990-8555 and we'll get you set up.
Where Fish River slows things down
Big Daddy’s Grill has been on Fish River since 2007, serving cold drinks, Gulf seafood, and a laid-back crowd that likes it that way.
First time there amd my sister and I will be repeat offenders there from now on. The fried crab claws were the best I've ever had. The spinach dip and chips we had was awsome possum! The prices were reasonable for great portions! Kudo's to you Big Daddy's!!
So far everything has been awesome. From service to food! Please support them. You get a beautiful view and soild food. The fried squash as a side is perfect! Potato salad is soild. This is our fav jet ski spot.
High quality food, excellent service, indoor and outdoor seating. We will eat here again!
