    Simple and nothing fancy. We got a hot dog, a chicken wrap, and a chocolate milkshake. The hot dog was perfect and my husband enjoyed the chicken wrap (Greek style). I think I expected too much from the shake - it was good though. Bathrooms out back (upstairs) and seating underneath with a cool breeze off the water.

    For an unassuming food shack, the service is outstanding at Billy Goats! Whether you are on the East end of the island to take the ferry, visit Fort Gaines, pop by the aquarium or just go to the beach, please stop by here and have a meal! There is picnic style seating underneath the cafe, and if you walk behind the cafe a very pretty view of the bay. I had a hot dog, $0.50 per topping which is a little high, but for $4.50 I can't be mad. My chocolate malt didn't have enough malt for me, but my son had a coffee flavored chocolate malt which was absolutely delicious. A friend's gyro looked delicious and fresh! It's nothing too fancy but it is high quality and seems pretty clean inside. The two ladies who run the place are sweet as pie!!! (I do wish they were wearing masks, but they do work behind a window and only with each other, and I don't know what Alabama's official policy is on masks, so I am not subtracting for this on my review.)

    This is a great little place located by the Ferry launch. We were out riding bikes and stopped by for sandwiches and drinks. We both had the brisket sandwich special on Texas toast, chips and a drink. It was a very nice brisket with pickles, onions, and a tangy sauce. My husband and I both agree the brisket was good enough to stand alone and the sauce wasn't needed. We enjoyed it very much sitting in the sun on the short pier next to the shop watching the Ferry come and go. Watching the birds and having a great time. After we shared a chocolate shake that was just delicious to top off a fantastic little beach lunch!!!!

    We stopped at Billy Goat concessions while on a recent vacation in Gulf Shores, AL. We had taken the Fort Morgan Ferry over to Dauphin Island to see Fort Gaines. We didn't realize how far the restaurants were from the fort. Since we were walking we decided to give Billy Goat Concessions a try so we would have more time left to explore Fort Gaines. We had a couple of tasty chicken wraps and a cold beer and were soon good to go. I was happy to see that the wraps were made to order and not prepared in advance. They were large and very filling. Billy Goat Concessions is located on the water. They have bathrooms available in the back of the building.

    Expensive for what it is. I think I lost a filling on a hamburger. Had to wait to order so an employee could finish their cigarette.

    The architecture is cool, the restaurant is huge with 2 levels plus a pool area (which has a stage…read morefor music sometimes) and from our experience this is the best sit-down restaurant on Dauphin Island (admittedly a low bar). Seafood definitely seems fresh and local, my wife loved her grilled shrimp po-boy and I got a seafood platter with fried shrimp, fish, and oysters that were perfectly seasoned and tasty. We were very happy with everything, and liked that the shrimp were peeled & deveined which we prefer but was unusual to find when we lived in New Orleans. Service was good, drink options sufficient, and the top level has a pretty good view even if you're not seated on the window. We typically cook on Dauphin Island for various reasons including usually travelling with a dog, but Pirates is a gem definitely worth visiting on any visit to Dauphin Island. Bravo!

    Likely our last visit for a while as we move our boat up to Fairhope next week. We arrived on a…read morefriday at 5:45, the wait was 35 minutes. Imho, they were seating faster than each waitress could keep up and it affected our service for sure. They were slammed, so I left the 4th star. We ordered eveything at once as we were there a while before our waitress Tanya made it over. Beer / wine, gumbo, fried fish dinner with baked potato and fried okra, she had the ahi tuna with sauteed spinach. We finished with cheesecake and a berry sauce. Everything was tasty, I had a fish filet and enough okra for another meal. The view, makes this place, the building architecture, if you like that, I do, and the food is consistently tasty. When we visit the island going forward, this will be our first pick.

We waiting almost 2 hours for a table which is typical during peak tourist season. Our the food was pretty good but nothing to rave about. After we got our food, we didn't see much of our waitress, so it was hard to get anything else we needed. Overall, it was a good experience with them being able to accommodate our large group and toddlers and the food was decent. I just wish the servers were a bit more attentive.

    THIS LOCATION REFUSES TO ACCOMMODATE MORE THAN 7 PEOPLE PER TABLE…read more This location has always had dirty tables with mediocre food at best, but today we had no choice to pick this location due to an accident on the highway. When we arrived we were not greeted by either hostess. I asked could our party of 14 be accommodated at the same table since we arrived at 4:30. One hostess very rudely asked if everyone had arrived, but I needed to ask several times what she was asking because she was very difficult to understand due to a South African accent. I told her we were all here at which time she walked away without saying a word. The second hostess said they could accommodate our party. After waiting a while the first hostess returned to the desk and told us to follow her. She asked did we want 2 of 3 tables. I reminded her we wanted to be seated together at which time she stated the tables were bolted down (which they obviously were not) and very rudely pointed me in the direction of the bar tender. After talking to him he said it was because it limits exit doors, I requested to be moved to an area that didn't have an exit door near it, he stated his manager would not allow him to put us in that area. I requested to speak to the manager because at this point I had been given 3 different excuses as to why we could not but seated together since we were the only party in the restaurant. The manager never came to the table. I asked another server to request the manager. The house manager stated the general manager will not allow the tables to be moved, also there were cameras and he wasn't going to get fired for moving them. The food was average and the tables are still sticky. Thankfully our waitress was extremely friendly and made the experience much more tolerable.
