If each Mobilian followed this household rule, we could probably pay for the new Bayway in a year.

All jokes aside, we do take our revelry seriously, especially from the night before Thanksgiving throughFat Tuesday.

Start The Day

Carpe Diem Coffee & Tea Co. After you get your fill, head across the street to walk around the historic Spring Hill College campus.

Say it one more time just in case.

After that, grab a beer and enjoy this 1946 bar and grill in Mobiles gorgeous Oakleigh Garden District.

Its also the ideal location to grab a pre-dinner cheese board and glass of wine.

Do those things, and you will leave incredibly happy (and satisfied).

Be sure to make a reservation!

Via Emilia

Craving pasta?

Call Via Emilia and get a table ASAP.

You wont believe the caliber of Italian food being served at this cozy little cottage.

However, Mobilians know that our location of the steak house is special.

The Noble South

This downtown gem has been serving elevated farm-to-table cuisine for a decade.

While youre in a Mardi mood, check out a newer addition to the city, Mardi Gras Park.

Trust me and order them spicy.

Find the vibe youre looking for, sit back, and enjoy the people watching.

Something Sweet

You’re on vacation, so treat yourself to dessert!

Mobile has plenty of options for those with a sweet tooth.
