The original Wintzell’s location has been open for over seventy five years and is known far and wide for their “Oysters — friend, stewed or nude.” Wintzell’s Oyster House was founded in 1938 by J. Oliver Wintzell and initially began as a small, six-stool oyster bar. Since then, the restaurant and brand have grown significantly. Though the Wintzell’s family sold the restaurant in the 1980s, the original décor, complete with walls covered in hundreds of J. Oliver Wintzell’s witty sayings, remains wholly intact.
With over ten years at the helm of the legendary establishment, Mobilians Bob and Buffy Donlon have parlayed the unique Wintzell’s experience into a successful series of restaurants, with consistent delivery of quality seafood, friendly service and great value. Because of the customer acceptance and track record of financial success of each location, Wintzell’s will continue to grow by offering franchise opportunities throughout the gulf Coast and beyond. It has been over seventy years and Wintzell’s is still shuckin’.
The Orange Beach (AL) location is at 24131 Perdido Beach Blvd.
