Zippy’s food isn’t going to blow your mind, but on a pretty day, the patio is a nice place to hang. The staff is super nice and the whole place has that thrown together Flora-Bama feel. In fact, I could see Zippy’s doing pretty well in Orange Beach. They have daiquiris at the bar, the salsa isn’t horrible, and while the food isn’t great, it is super quick and everyone engages when you get to the front of the line. I can see how someone might want to catch a game there, or get together with friends to down a few on the patio when the weather is right. I got the Hombre burrito, which was pretty much a Taco Bell gringo style concoction wrapped in a nice warm tortilla. The regular size was plenty for lunch. I’m not going to go on and on, but I’m not going to say stay away either. It’s the kind of place that has its moments.
