We just came from there..and it is a regular stop for us. Sorry to say...but most are standard fare tourist places. We have never found a great restaurant there. I would say the Cafe Grazie is an above average Italian on the water at a marina. Lucy Buffetts is a fun spot on the intercoastal. The go to local seafood place is Shrimp shack...a chain. The VERY best soft serve ice cream is at Shakes in Foley...not a bad ride from Gulf Shores SP. If you are going there for the hangout festival...hang on to your hat!
Great bicycle trails, all paved. Hopefully, others will chime in.
On edit...McGuires Irish pub in Pensacola is a great choice...as is the Naval aviation museum in Pensacola. Or a Blue Marlins baseball game in Pensacola.
If I wasn't so lazy, I would try the Flo-Bama bar/yacht club on the state line. Could be a fun spot.
Depending on your preferences, they have great lake front sites oin the park...and I have to say that almost every site is a good one. It's a very good state park!
