We had a fun time at Picnic Beach! Walked right in, sat down, figured out what we wanted, then went…read moreup to the bar to order. Our food was very delicious and the people were very nice. The portions don't look big in these pictures, but I got 10 shrimp in my coconut shrimp basket plus many many fries, so it's definitely a good amount! Allergy wise, they have GF marked on their menu for certain items, including fries, so make sure you tell them gluten free .... for whatever you want to order to make sure they ensure it's GF!

We originally stopped in just to pass the time while the kids were playing mini golf across the…read morestreet--but I'm so glad we did. This spot has a laid-back, fun atmosphere with outdoor games and plenty of picnic tables, making it perfect for hanging out. The setup is super easy: order at the counter, grab a table, and relax. There's also a small corner with merchandise for sale, which adds a nice touch. We ended up sitting at the bar and ordered the Parmesan bacon truffle fries... and wow. They were so good I immediately regretted not being hungrier. I was seriously tempted to order more just to try other items on the menu. We also shared the rainbow flight and had the picnic margarita--everything we tried was fantastic. The staff was friendly, helpful, and attentive throughout our visit, which made the experience even better. Parking is a bit limited, with a small lot in the back and some street parking if you're lucky--but it's definitely worth the effort. Next time, I'm coming hungry and staying for a full meal.

10/10 doughnuts. Bacon was sweeter to me than the raspberry pistachio. But great in their own ways…read more Place was packed on a Memorial Day. Cons: 0/10 latte. I got a sugar free caramel latte and it was wayyyyyy too much syrup and too sweet. Maybe someone messed up with the amount of pumps because it was so sweet, it was tough to finish. My husband got an Americano and said the plain coffee was pretty good so I ll let it slide. Price for a doughnut was a little high but they are not your typical Krispy crème flavors and it's a layered doughnut that is 2x the size of a regular doughnut you'd get at the store. Price of a latte was pushing $6+ for a small which is steep considering it wasn't super great. Music VERY loud. Not only was is packed but I couldn't hear my husband at the table because it was seriously so loud in there. PRO: Bathrooms were clean. Staff were nice. Restaurant was clean and updated/renovated. Will go back for doughnuts all day, but not coffee.

I really like the selection of doughnuts offered. They even have savory doughnuts, which is a cool…read moreoption. My Wife and I got the Blueberry Hill. Seemed to have been dipped in blueberry icing with powdered sugar or a sugary crumble sprinkled on top. I would say if you want to try something different than your typical doughnut/donut then you should definitely check this place out. The doughnuts are almost croissant like. They're airy and you can see all the layers within the doughnut. They're more dense than a croissant, so I would say it's a croissant and beignet hybrid. They also offer coffee/lattes/etc. They're made in an actual espresso machine and taste pretty good. It wasn't like some places where coffee was an after thought and you get coffee from a pot or a Keurig. It's not the best espresso or latte you'll ever have but definitely good enough to accompany the doughnut.

I decided to stop by Happy Pappys for the first time today & I'm so glad I did! It's such an…read moreadorable little coffee shop with a bright, open atmosphere that immediately feels welcoming. Everyone working there was genuinely friendly & made the experience even better. I also loved how many options they had on the menu. Whether you're looking for coffee, another specialty drink, or something to eat, there's a great variety to choose from. I ordered the iced Tiramisu Latte with oat milk because tiramisu is one of my favorite desserts. It wasn't overly sweet, which I really appreciated, although I was hoping for a stronger tiramisu flavor. Even so, it was enjoyable, & I'm already looking forward to going back to try the Honey Bee next time! My Mom tried the Marilyn Monroe (iced with oat milk) & enjoyed hers as well. It's the kind of place that makes you want to come back, whether you're meeting a friend, getting a little work done, or just enjoying a quiet cup of coffee. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

On top of that, the specialty lattes were phenomenal -- my husband and I shared the Honey Bee, the Tiramisu, and the Toasty Caramel lattes, and I'm already thinking about the next time we can go back. Last but certainly not least, what made this experience so special were the sweet interactions the owner had with his customers, along with the pride he clearly takes in his establishment and its cleanliness. Whether he had known someone for years or had just met them that day, like he did with my husband and me, every person walked away smiling as if they were leaving their own Pappy's house. From the Mississippi Gulf Coast -- we will absolutely be back.

After 4-5 days in refrigerator still taste like you just cooked them and their cocktail sauce and butter sauce is amazing. We take large cooler and stock up on shrimp and snow crab legs and crab claws grab dry ice and take it all back to Texas and then vacuum seal it all while it's still frozen. When we cook it it's still as fresh as when we bought it and cook it and is never fishy and the shrimp we cook a couple pounds at a time and snack on it throughout the week with cocktail sauce and still fresh best place for seafood.
