footprint, opening a second location on the island along the beach highway. But it's been a few years -- and I think
of the same award-winning food as the Gulf Shores location but the OB location has an expanded menu. Upstairs or
so much local color and eclectic items dotting the walls and ceiling. Can't go wrong hanging 'round this incredible
table, TVs and endless awesome locals. So grab a Zombie cocktail from this po' boy pub from the bayou, islanders!

s on the menu, but here's a few creations I strongly suggest:

Po-Boys: Fresh Oyster Bar:
50 Roast Beef Debris Po’ Boy $6 in. $9.75 Redneck Rockefeller Dozen $18.50
