Red Fish Blue Fish has a nice outdoor area for kids to run around.

Fun spot. Just make sure you don't drink your beer with your right hand after dark or they'll have you kissing the moose.

Called the sports bar or something. Similiar… more of a restaurant though


Sidelines. I’ve eaten there several times in the last 10 years and it’s always a solid place. Casual, well priced, and good food in a perfect environment for food after a day on the beach.

Went to the Grand Marlin this past weekend and I would say its good but grossly overpriced. I added 3 scallops and it was a $32 add on to entree. Went to Peg Leg Pete's and did the same thing and it was like $11. Peg Legs were better too.

Exactly what I got last summer when I went. Fantastic.

Son had the wings, pretty good.

Wife and daughter got some fish dishes I believe… pretty good

Not a world class dining experience xx but solid, affordable. Cold beer.

I had the grilled grouper sandwich from there last week also. We were a family of 4 on a budget and that place fit the bill. 2 very picky eaters with me and both loved it. Place was packed, food came out quick, right around $60. Great price for food on the beach. Similar to a Chimes atmosphere

Didn't see any I disagree with on here. All good suggestions, even wrote a few down for next time. Just thought I'd offer my 2 cents since P'cola is our go to beach town for the last 10+ years and the oldest one just moved there.

Blackened grouper sandwich at Peg Leg's is the most satisfying seafood purchase in the county, nothing flashy just a great sandwich. We love Flounders, split everything portions are huge.

Some non-seafood:

Ozone's Pizza Pub: in the basement of an old hospital. Kind of cool environment but more bar like, we did takeout last time and it was really good.

Mama's Tacos Delicioso Of Pensacola: good Mexican, loud and bright so kids love it.

For your dessert fix Wild Honey frozen yogurt out by UWF is worth the trip.

Joe Patti's for seafood to cook or take home. Sushi bar there is some of the best I've had but has weird hours, be sure to look up hours.
