Food is great. Lots of choices to pick from. Service is always good too. You're able to sit and watch airplanes take off and land from Birmingham as you eat.

I don't find many quality spots to grab food in this area so I was pleasantly surprised to find Alpha Charlie tucked away, across the from the airport. Great views with seating indoor and outside. A solid menu of quick bites including a pretty tasty bean burger for my vegetarians. The owner, Randy was extremely hospitable--I will def be back again when working in the area. 5 stars! PS- Have you served in the military? Be sure to bring a photo as they are aiming to decorate the wall with service photos.

We heard about this spot on social media and decided to give it a try. It has a very cute atmosphere with the airplane theme which is perfect being located behind the airport. The food was good which we had the wings and Philly sandwich...my favorite were the fries. It was nice to sit in the outdoor area and watch the planes. I think this is hidden gem for Bham that more people should know about. Wish they had evening hours bc I would have loved to bring the kids to watch the planes but they close at 3pm.

Cool restaurant where you can see planes take off or land. They have indoor and outdoor seating options. Inside has cool decor. I ordered the burger which was pretty good. The manager was really kind and gave us the backstory on the restaurant. Highly recommend

This place is right behind the the air field for our airport. It was raining so it spoiled the view. Nice older look inside but whimsical because it's based on air flight, tables and chairs are also barrack like. I ordered a cheese burger, fries and drink came with it. We ordered off the kiddy menu lol and it was a nice side burger with ample fried. Parking was ok. I will return as I have wanted to get there for a while. The guy that took our order was very helpful and brought us our food. Several other workers invited us back. Only thing missing was I wanted to see some planes land.

My mom and I went to ACG for lunch during the week. It was a little crowded, but it wasn't too bad. You order at the counter and they will bring your food out to you. We dined inside but there is also a covered patio. I loved the patio space because you could really see the airplanes taking off. Love the strategic placement of this restaurant! You can see the airplanes inside as well. It really adds to the experience. My mom and I both enjoyed our food selections. I had the JP dice dogs and fries. My mom had the popcorn chicken and onion strings. (See pics). Food was fresh with generous portion sizes. I plan to return when I have more time. This was a good first time visit!
