The Best thing about this area is the scenery, the history around you and the squirrels that come straight up to you, even on you and eat food from you! Downtown is just an all around fun place to visit and when you have free time to window shop! Every thing is in walking distance! And this square has Gorgeous scenes for photography, especially maybe engagements or even weddings and senior photography! You have to explore and have your own positive experience here! Super nice!

This is a beautiful place a family-oriented and we have fun

Such a Beautiful scenery and the squirrels come right up to you and eat! Very cute and like no other place! Really can feel the history around you as well as a Beautiful sight to see and enjoy!

Everything was clean and beautiful. This park is well kept so I told my friends from out of town about it. We went there so her son could feed the squirrels peanuts while we visited. We had a great time catching up, then had lunch nearby.

Squirrels! Love the squirrels here... Dont love all the homeless population here, but have never given me reason to worry... Pretty clean downtown area overall

I loved visiting this historic park because I think squirrels are cute. If dozens of squirrels approaching you sounds like something youd find cute, this is the park for you. If that sounds like a nightmare, stay away!

Bienville Square is ALWAYS a nice place to visit & Ive been going there since I was a little kid. Today I was just passing by on my way to have drinks with the girls, so I didnt stop but I must get back by there soon to feed the squirrels.

Beautiful area but the park was closed during covid pandemic which I dont understand because its an open area. Squirrels are running amuck in Mobile.

This is, perhaps, the most beautiful spot in Mobile. Lovely, sprawling oaks that really speak to the old age of Mobile.

Anytime I visit Mobile I must tour this park and I also stop by the Peanut Shop for fresh hot roasted peanuts. They are sure to have something to satisfy any sweet tooth. Just sit in the park and enjoy your sweet treat. Be on the lookout for the resident Squirrels because they love nuts too. You might even make a friend or two. It’s very safe so no worries.

Its usually always so nice in Bienville Square. A little more bare now since some trees were destroyed by Hurricane Sally.

Charming atmosphere with the ornate fountain and wrought- iron benches, tame squirrels and clean grounds.

Cool ambiance. Reminded me of Mardi Gras...Which I also learned was originally started there too.

Too comfortable not to stop for a few minutes. Plenty of benches, shade, and joys of sipping in the park while spectating the squirrels. One of my favorite Sunday afternoon stops. Recommended for a bit of peace :)

This is a nice park cant wait for it to be restored.

Lovely park with graceful old oaks and a stunning water fountain. Plenty of benches. The ghost under the gazebos name is Harriotte. She is mostly nice.

It was a great Sunday evening spending it with my mom Bienville Square Downtown Mobile,Al.

Beautiful, scenic place to come relax and enjoy a nice day out

It was heartbreaking to see all of those old historic oaks uprooted by Hurricane Sally.

Lovely Quant area. Great for walking and chilling for lunch!

Its very relaxing to sit hear and listen to the water fountain.

Walked around square. Relaxing place to tour and take pictures .

Played with my son and fed the squirrels, he loved it!

I love this place! I wish the pigeons were still there to feed. The squirrels are fun but they wont come up to you anymore. The kids love it as much as a park with a playground. Downtown Mobile is beautiful!

A little run down. Grab food for the squirrels. A neat gazebo and fountain that was initially donated by Sears Roebuck.

Beautiful fountain! Make sure you bring some food for the silly squirells.

Always a Pleasant Wonderful and Godly Experience. The gathering place of Downtown Mobile. #Squirrels Habitats

Love it because its not to big to walk it and perfect for photography

Peaceful and quiet nice place for pictures

I call this place squirrel park, because in the daytime there are hundreds of squirrels. Its a nice place to sit and people watch or walk through on a date.

This park is adorable and great place to take a break from the busyness of life.

Very good food and service was great! Doesnt it look yummy? Let me tell you that it was! Buffalo Wings, Breaded Mushrooms and Mozz Sticks was my order. The Buffalo Chicken Tender basket was my friend Ts.

Great historical landmark in mobile with plenty of history to read and learn about. Its in the middle of all the fun so you could rest and people watch, then take off and go to the moon pie shop, the haunted bookstore, heroes bar and grill, the three Georges and many, many more.

I just luv 2 walk downtown n get a piece of mind!!!!!

Always considered Bienville to be the heart of Mobile.

We met Sunday at Bienville Square with Archbishop Rodi from the Cathederal of the Immaculate Conception for rosary procession to the Cathederal, Mass, and presentation of Christ the King medals to those Catholics who did the most volunteer work in their church. It was the first time that I was aware that such a medal existed and I have been a Catholic for 75 years. That tells me how little I am aware of what goes on in the church. We go to mass on Sunday and that is that. These volunteers help the church and clergy make things run smoothly so that we can attend mass without a flaw. Some volunteers came long distances to receive their medal, (Montgomery or Birmingham), while the recipitent from our local group (Gulf Shores) did not bother to show up.

Beautiful park. Get a bag of peanuts at A&M and feed the squirrels . Beautiful fountain and monuments, plaques, etc. We were there last weekend, took our little dog. Aldo were there for Joe Cain, also took the dog.

I Love and Miss Bienville Square! I grew up in Mobile and we try to stop in at the Square every time we come down to Alabama! So Beautiful and such a Rich History Downtown!

Just A Place To Sit In Shade And Watch Possibly The Fattest Happiest Squirrels Youve Ever Seen..Feed Them Fresh Hot Nuts From The Shop Down The Street If You Wish! And Watch Them Lick Off The Salt/Sugar Before Doing Acrobatics To Eat Them By The Trees This May Be The Most Interesting Thing To Experience Here Live Most Of The Year

Really nice place, clean and pleasant

This is the heart of downtown Mobile. Restaurants, shops, museums and great live music within a couple of blocks. Bienville Square is a great place to bring the kiddos to feed the squirrels (The Peanut Shop has popcorn to share). Its also a good place to brown bag your lunch and just people watch.

We had the best time setting up for #JoeCain day in Bienville Sq. And hanging out all day for parades on A route

This is a nice public square (park) in downtown Mobile Alabama. A great venue to watch the Mardi Gras parades.

Great scenic location and center of Downtown Mobile History!

Very beautiful, quiet, and peaceful. Great place for a picnic or spending time with family.

The squirrels are friendly, the fountain is beautiful, and the weather was nice and cool.

Good place to hangout with some glow Sticks

A very nice place. Will return to enjoy feeding the squirrels. Making wishes in the fountain and all the friendly faces.

Beautiful place to visit. Had a great time here.

My husband and I just walked in the Buddy Walk for Downs Syndrome

It’s a nice place. Quiet and pleasant sit there under the trees and not be bothered except by pigeons and or squirrels. When I go I always have either popcorn or peanuts to feed them it is relaxing and they are healthy by looking at their size. Well feed. There are different events that go on in the square at different time but if you want to be in the center of Mardi Gras fun that’s the place to be but stake out your spot early.

Beautiful little park in downtown Mobile! Plenty of street parking and nice shopping area just down the street! The fountain was beautiful! This is a must visit when visiting Mobile! Also dont miss the painted oyster shells all over the city!

Awesome historical park and a lot of fun during MARDI GRAS!

One of the best downtown parks. Read the inscription on both sides of the cross!

Mardi gras!! Dirtier an stinkier than usual but full of fun

I went downtown for the monthly Art Walk. But they had the Gulf Coast Jazz Band and Orchestra which was a pleasant surprise. The music was on point. I truly enjoyed this local fan favorite . I will be excited about going to the Art Walk next month, which also had local vendors and non profits with information on their company.

I Love The Square! They dont have the huge,old Beautiful Oaks like they do here up around Denver. I miss this for sure and its quite the nice site after a while of living elsewhere!

Great place to chill in the heart of downtown Mobile

Taken grandsons to the area in JuneThey need to spray roaches on the groundThey need attending to like skakes board

Beautiful park! Go to A&M and get the legendary roasted peanuts. Eat some yourself and also go feed the squirrels in Bienville Square! Gorgeous fountain, huge shade trees, and lots of park benches.

I love this park. Lots of squirrels and a place right down the street to buy peanuts to feed them with. To me the fountain in the middle is a work of art.

Love this area to do some Mardi Gras-ing

Very pretty and clean

Great park!

Mardi Gras was Great

Its a nice place to relax and the fountain is really pretty during all times of day and especially at night. There are tons of squirrels that roam from tree to tree. This is a convenient location if youre out walking around downtown.

My first time in Mobile Alabama and this city park was beautiful.

I just love it. The squirrels are super friendly and hungry. I love the scenery and the waterfall is peaceful. My favorite place.

We stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn across the street from this park, and had a balcony that overlooked the park. We sat on our balcony and observed every moning, how workers made the rounds to keep the grounds clean, and tidy. Its a popular spot to feed the squirrels peanuts, as they are friendly and not afraid of humans. There is a beautiful fountain that is lit up at night, providing a serene display. Large oak trees throughout. A small gem in the middle of the bars in the area.

In the middle of town. Has tree and benches. Cool place to go.

I love the square downtown! Its beautiful! But be careful of the squirrels, they are gangster!

Its a park in the middle of downtown. Its cool. Usually some homeless people chilling but what else is new. You can get peanuts up the road and feed the squirrels if its not to crowded.

Squirrel haven. A wonderful place to sit and rest (and feed a few squirrels).

Lovely park in downtown. Not crowded or anything when we were there. Wonderful breeze as well.

Its good

The squirrels are fearless! Beautiful town square though.

This is a historic landmark in downtown Mobile AL. Its a must-visit for history lovers and people watchers. If you enjoy seeing fat squirrels frolic and play...do plan to spend half hour at least just sitting! Beautiful trees and cool shade make Bienville Square THE PLACE to eat your brown bag lunch.

I love Bienville square. Its nicely kept. The oak trees are magnificent. The squirrels eat out of your hand. The fountain is beautiful.

Went for New Years Eve. Very pleasant

So beautiful. Free wifi. Very nice place to sit and relax while discovering downtown. Love the haunted bookshop and old Fashion tattoo studio.

Beautiful day for the park..

Beautiful...free Wi-Fi

If youre looking for an adventure without all the hustle and bustle of New Orleans, look no further then Bienville Square. The large cast iron fountain is the perfect place to set and catch Pokemon, or feed squirrels. But beware the humidity may catch you first.

Lovely! Peaceful at the right time of the day.

Great public space for meeting friends and feeding squirrels!

Always a joy

Cute town square great place to stop and stretch the legs, plenty a restaurant/bar to choose from

Bienville Square is always a nice place to go if its only to sit alone or with others..Its a nice comfortable place to walk around and site see, a great place to take kids to feed the squirrels or maybe even have a picnic...I feel safe and secure there with the police precinct located across the street....I would definitely recommend Bienville Square to anyone whom love a fun and peaceful place...Its great to read a book in peace and also take great pictures.

Always the place to be during mardi gras

Best place to be at Mardi Gras

Beautiful park! Its also home to a rather large population of tame squirrels. So dont be surprised if one decides to get a little close to you while you are sitting on a park bench.

The food at Loda Bier Garten looks better than it tastes in my opinion.

So much history. Gorgeous

One of the lovely parks in the LoDa area. During some events there is even live music at the Gazebo.Speaking of the Gazebo, the bathrooms are just under it. So if you are need its there.The fountain looks great since its remodel a while back. There are plenty of spots to sit with the various benches around.Yet its the squirrels that make this park a go to spot. Hit up A&M Peanuts up the street, spend $5 on some popcorn and peanuts and come feed our fat little buddies. Some are super brave and will eat out of your hand. Or even jus jump on you and steal your lunch. Kids love the challenge of chasing them around the park. Which is a GREAT thing if you got an energetic kid.There are some great eateries and even a convenience store across the street. If you havent been here. Go! Especially on the Market in the Park days.

We have always enjoyed going to the park we buy a loaf of bread and feed the squirrels while enjoying the large fountain located in the center. the area is surrounded by shaded trees and City Life with local restaurants just a short walk away or you could just relax on one the many benches provided at the park.

The squirrels are to cute and come right up to ya

Crowed for Mardi gras but we had a blast!

OMG I loved this park. It has so much to see. Definitely going back

The squirrels are absolutely adorable

Squirrels are so playful and most are not shy when you get close very relaxing to watch them play
