Mr Gene's Beans

What a treat! Traveling to Fairhope, Alabama for the third time to visit a friend, I was amazed I haven’t made it to Mr. Green Beans! I tried their famous Float and wasn’t disappointed! It truly hit the spot! My friends all ordered ice cream and shakes and trust me, they were beyond satisfied! If you are visiting the Fairhope area… make it a point to stop by this little jewel! The owners are adorable! They gave us recommendations on dinner and were a joy to chat with! However they could not chat to long… the line was forming to get some of their goodies!

The ice cream is very tasty and they have lots of flavors to choose from. The facility is cute but is tight when it gets busy.

Beautiful and charming place to get a treat. The service is very friendly and everyone is so nice.

Definitely a must go ! If you like coffee you have to try the fairhope float, I wasn’t in the mood for it so we got an ice cream sandwich to split and two straws/spoons to share the float… which ended up being so good it was gone in minutes and now we can’t wait to go back to get it again !! We needed to cut the ice cream sandwich so we asked for a knife and the employee didn’t think the plastic would do it so she offered to take it back and cut it with a real knife for us, and everyone in here was so kind and happy ! Great place !

Best ice cream shop in Fairhope. The owner is great, super personable. Gets really crowded inside. Scoops up Bluebell ice cream. The Fairhope float is a delicious coffee treat.

The atmosphere was great! Perfect combination for adults and kids alike! Who doesn't want to grab fresh home brewed coffee for themselves and wonderful Blue Bell ice cream for their kiddos? We came after dark on a Friday evening and the street had already been shut down for their regular street festival but we only had to park a block away and it was well worth it! The walk to and from was filled with music and beautiful lights and their very own French Quarter! I highly recommend this experience for any age! P.S. They were open til 10pm which was awesome!

Wide variety for each sweet tooth. Icecream-blue bell. Cup/cone/waffle cone. Loads of different toppings. Coffee. Blended/hot/cold. Popcorn.

All different sizes with a smile from the lovely ladies behind the counter. They truly made the experience enjoyable even with there being a steady stream of clientele.

Loved this ice cream place and the staff! What stands out of here is all the staff using decency, consideration and common sense of masking up unlike other places nearby even as we are still in a pandemic despite mask mandates being lifted by Alabama. Masks are one of the best measures no doubt and glad all were wearing masks covering their nose and mouth fully. An employee named Katie met there is so sweet and helpful. Glad I was able to get a vegan raspberry sorbet and iced soy latte. I highly recommend this place!

Amazing place! Had great options and flavors! The people were great and we all felt so welcomed because of them. Even had some dairy free stuff for mom on her birthday. Would recommend for anyone in fair hope, also worth the trip from places within 15 miles or so. Would give 6/5 if I could 😆.

They love applying new layers of paint to everything here. Maybe try a pressure washer instead of more and more layers of paint
