This small Alabama town is giving big farm-to-fork energy. Tucked along the eastern shore of Mobile Bay, this coastal town punches way above its weight when it comes to food and charm. The setting for Hallmark movies and a recent Reese Witherspoon production, Fairhope is a longtime hidden gem where Southerners have flocked for decades.

But, word has gotten out and Fairhope is ready for its closeup. If anyone knows where to eat (and why it matters), it’s Bentley Evans, a Fairhope native and co-founder of The Hope Farm and Little Bird, two restaurants that anchor the town’s farm-to-fork identity.
He’s sharing the inside scoop on where to book a bayfront stay, which restaurants are actually worth your time and what to do when you’re not eating.

If Fairhope wasn’t on your list before, it should be now.
