    Customer service was awful. We went to build me a bear for my wedding and the person who helped stuff our bear was very rude. She ruined the experience for me honestly and wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. She was very condescending and talked to me like I was a child. Do not bring your children here if you want them to be talked to poorly and have the magic ruined for them.

    Great place to build a bear. Everything went smooth. We had plenty assistance in building my 2 children's bears. The staff was kind and courteous.

    I've been to Build A Bear enough that I believe I am responsible for financing at least one entire store. Maybe that's a bit of a stretch, but let's just say I've spent a lot in these places. You know the deal. Your kids pick a stuffed animal without stuffing, they stuff it and you leave happy. Well actually they try and convince you that you need clothes, shoes and a bunch more for the dolls, but try and skip that section. This store is located in the trendy Warf area of Orange Beach. Parking is difficult, but there's a garage behind the strip. There are no entrances directly from the garage so be prepared to walk. The staff at this location were very friendly, but that's the rule for BAB. I'd be surprised if I encountered a disgruntled employee. If the hours say this location is closed, call anyway. On the day we visited it said they closed at 6, but when I called they said they were open till nine.

    Crappiest build a bear store ever. We drove half an hour for their pay your age promotion. Because they were crowded they closed early. That's not how it should have been handled, sorry, saying your closed and handing off a 15 dollar off coupon doesn't equal pay your age. If concerned with the crowd you start a line and limit the amount of people in. We will not be returning to this build a bear ever

    If you are in Gulf Shores/Orange Beach, AL. & want to learn how to build a killer sandcastle. Sand…read moreCastle University is the place to go! Sand Castle University comes out to where you are on the beach & teaches you how to build a sandcastle the right way. Our instructor on Friday afternoon was Tammy, & we chose to build turtl together. She had all of the tools we needed. & she took it slow as she talked so we could follow along as we go. Thank you to Tammy from Sand Castle University for a wonderful afternoon building in the sand! -Austin, Pepper, Ben, & Kady Wood

    We stumbled across this from a magnet on the condo we stayed in. And WOW! So happy we did!!! Tammy…read morewas our instructor and she was great! So professional, had EVERYTHING you need to build your sculpture. Each person builds their own masterpiece as Tammy walks you through, step by step. The class was an hour. We did the 101 class and chose the turtle. I highly recommend adding on a kit so you can recreate your masterpiece- and maybe learn to do another one. She mentioned they have open classes, Wednesdays at the state park pavilion. That would be something i definitely would look into, especially if your group is smaller, like one or two people. We ages ranging had littles to 73, and this was appropriate for everyone.
