User Reviews of Lamberts Cafe III

Yelp.com Review - by Lloyd S.

4.0 of 5 stars. I'll give it four stars for the experience--"throwed rolls," humorous pranks from servers, ample food. But the food itself is just okay--not great, not bad, just ordinary. Locals rarely eat here...

Yelp.com Review - by Stacy G.

5.0 of 5 stars. Daggum, this place is good. Go here at the beginning of your vacation, because you'll want to go a second time before you leave.Even though it is a tourist trap, the food is very good. Enormous...

Yelp.com Review - by Glenn W.

4.0 of 5 stars. Yes, this place is a tourist trap that advertises itself as the "Home of the Throwed Rolls". But despite that and their poor grammer (it should be "thrown" rolls), this place is really pretty good....

Yelp.com Review - by Chris K.

4.0 of 5 stars. It's a shame this Lambert's is listed in Foley since it is only 8 miles north of Gulf Shores. Visitors to Gulf Shores looking for an alternative to the tourist fare will miss out unless they widen...

Yelp.com Review - by Angel E.

2.0 of 5 stars. I so agree with Gabrielle --it's a tourist trap living on its advertising, not even reputation. The food feels and tastes like it had been cooked in the morning and kept warm all day long. Don't go...

Yelp.com Review - by Joj o.

4.0 of 5 stars. I was expecting more throwed rolls. They kind of just tossed them.Servers were great. Food was really good, and you get a lot of it. The sides were good (and so were the people serving them).Would go...

Yelp.com Review - by George C.

4.0 of 5 stars. Some friends of the wife and I have been telling us for years that a restaurant in Foley, Alabama had such a thing as "throwed rolls". Now, I am a fan of big, heavy, moist yeast rolls, and actively...

Yelp.com Review - by Bob F.

4.0 of 5 stars. Gotta love it for what it is. Southern food, prepared before you arrive and reheated. Huge portions, all you can eat sides, lots of butter and "Hot Rolls" getting tossed to you from across the room.

Fun Place

We love Lamberts. It's a hoot to try and catch the hot rolls. It's a fun place to take the family. The extras they bring around make it impossible to eat all you order.

"World Famous 'Throwed' Rolls!!!!

The gift shop has some unique gifts to take home to remember a visit and eating dinner while rolls were being "throwed" around the restaurant. The atmosphere is fun, the decor is unique and interesting too....

I caught my own roll!

What a fun place to bring the kids. They come out and throw rolls across the room to you (be careful they are hot!) and the kids just go crazy for it!

Throwed Rolls

The food and atmosphere at Lamberts is very enjoyable. However, they throw your bread at you which I don't really enjoy.

Yelp.com Review - by Venu N.

4.0 of 5 stars. This is yet another oddity in the Deep South -- the concept at Lambert's is that they will throw tasty yeast rolls at you while you are eating. It's not as crazy as it sounds -- they aren't trying to...

Average, almost great

I would say that Lamberts is great except for one thing -- they only take cash. Its just frustrating and hard to believe that in 2007 a business doesn't accept credit and debit cards...just ridiculous
