1 Reviews & Comments About Fairhope
This town is a very quaint and peaceful town. The downtown area is very friendly with lots of food and shopping options. The pier and bay area is a very nice place to take an evening walk and watch the most beautiful sunsets over the bay.
Bone and Barrel has the best food on Fairhope, Avenue. There's also a very good ice cream shop called Mr. Gene's Beans and several good coffee shops in the area.
