Waterway Village

Discover the Culture and Charm of Gulf Shores

Waterway Village has begun to take shape along both sides of the Intracoastal Waterway and a unique downtown atmosphere is transforming some of Gulf Shores’ most historic real estate. Its pedestrian friendly design features quaint streets with tree-lined sidewalks, decorative lamp posts and inviting seating areas offering residents and visitors a year-round destination to dine, shop and play.

For over 100 years, Acme has been satisfying the hungriest of people all over the world!

It's quality you can taste in the fresh, hand-shucked Louisiana oysters. Whether served ice cold on the half shell, char-grilled and sizzling in garlic butter or fried to golden perfection, Acme oysters are some of the best you'll ever have.

And it's not just the oysters, we're serving all of the New Orleans classics like red beans and rice, seafood gumbo, jambalaya and more, all seasoned to perfection and served with a smile. So pull up a chair, take in the history and soak up the flavor.
