Manci’s Antique Club in Daphne, Alabama has been a Mobile Bay institution for decades, combining a restaurant, a bar, and a genuine antique collection into one building that feels unlike anywhere else on the Gulf Coast. The restaurant appeared in Season 4, Episode 8 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Better Than Ever,” which aired September 22, 2008, and Guy Fieri found a kitchen taking Gulf seafood seriously alongside the kind of American comfort food that keeps Baldwin County regulars coming back. The antique collection filling every corner of the space is not decoration — it is an actual collection, which gives the dining room a character that no interior designer could replicate.
