Got a group of 6 looking to go on a bachelor trip to the SEC tourney. Where should be stay? Hotel? Team hotel? VRBO/AirBNB?

There’s an embassy suites in hoover real close to the stadium.
The teams stay at the Wynfrey in the galleria. I think it is a Hyatt now.
The tournament is a lot of fun. Good tailgating, and good baseball.

Guess it depends on what you want. If you want the hotel close to things to do like bars and restaurants, you might want to look at downtown like at the Elyton. It would be a good 20-30 min trip from the hotel to the park from there.

Really depends on if baseball or nightlife are more important. The Hoover Met is in the suburbs, and while there are some decent bars and restaurants around there, it’s not really a nightlife destination. There are several hotels along Hwy 150/John Hawkins Pkwy that would be an easy drive to the stadium, but they’d all be a haul to the downtown bar scene.
A new brewery just opened by the stadium that has been getting good reviews. Brock’s Gap Brewing.

No one's said it but 280 near the Summit (junction of US-280 and I-459) has a lot of hotels. It's just a few exits up from the Met, maybe 10 miles.
The nearby restaurants on 280 are generally better than anything Hoover has and it's easier to get downtown from there.

Ross Bridges, play golf, skip the baseball. Uber into Bham and hit TrimTab and Ghost Train breweries

Eh, I’m not sure there’s anything on 280 worth staying there over somewhere closer to the stadium. They’re both chain restaurant wastelands for the most part. And Hoover has Eugene’s Hot Chicken and a Saw’s location that just opened. Plus the new brewery by the stadium, though I imagine it’ll be madhouse for the tournament.

Hoover and the Lorna Rd/150 stretch might have the best ethnic food in Bham. Silver Coin (Indian), Jake’s Soul Food (Southern), Tortuga’s (deep dish pizza), Blue Pacific (Thai), Pollo Lucas (Latin).
Silver Coin is the best Indian food in Bham IMO. Go to Jake’s and get the ox tails. Tortuga’s is the best pizza in Bham and rivals any deep dish I’ve had in Chicago.

I pass by Costas every day but have never been there. Is it pretty good?

Costa’s was good 20-30 years ago. No idea how they’re still business. Last time I ate there it was so bad.

damn that's really disappointing.
Do you have any other recommendations in that 31/Lorna area we can try? We haven't lived there long. Maybe something not super well known like Firebirds is.

Like mentioned above, the Lorna Rd area has a few really good ethnic places. Blue Pacific has great Thai food. Silver Coin has great Indian food. The taco truck set up near the Krisoy Kreme on 31 is good. A Saw’s BBQ just opened by the Best Buy.
