The Spotlight on Barometer Waterfront Grille

Fresh Seafood with a View in Orange Beach

Barometer Waterfront Grille is a laid-back, coastal-style seafood restaurant located right along the water in Orange Beach. With a casual, beachy vibe and a spacious outdoor deck, it’s a go-to spot for anyone looking to enjoy fresh Gulf seafood and breezy views just a short drive from local concert venues.

Known for its fresh catches, Southern-inspired flavors, and signature drinks, Barometer balances a chill atmosphere with quality cuisine. Whether you're coming straight off the beach or heading to a show, it's an easygoing place to unwind and fuel up.

Why Concert-goers love it

Barometer Waterfront Grille is just minutes from The Wharf Amphitheater and other Orange Beach music venues, making it ideal for a pre-show meal. The service is fast and friendly, helping you stay on schedule, and the open-air deck offers a relaxed place to soak in the coastal energy before heading to your event. The vibe is lively but not too loud—perfect for conversation without shouting over a crowd.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers mention that wait times for outdoor seating can get long during peak hours, especially on weekends. Also, while the menu is seafood-focused, options for vegetarians and non-seafood eaters are somewhat limited.
