Restaurants near Eglin AFB

“Three phases in swamps September-November 2014.
Still my greatest accomplishment in all my years of service remains shattering the previously held record of Red Barron pepperoni microwaveable pizzas consumed in a single sitting at The Gator. 16 over the previous record of 13.
Readily I displayed the intestinal fortitude required to fight on to the Ranger objective and complete the mission. #RLTW #redbarronislife”

“Best burgers on base. Their weekly specials are worth the visit alone. Super friendly employees.”

“Last week I went to Charleys and noticed significant improvements since my last visits. The service time was much shorter than usual, fries were perfectly cooked, and food was neatly placed into the container instead of plopped into it messily. I went back again later that week and had the same experience. I hope the pattern continues.”

“Whenever I’ve stopped by this Starbucks, either Isabelle or Yani have been the baristas and they’re always kind and warm. No request is too big for them. They’re the epitome of great customer service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“This is a convenience store, souvenir shop, take-and-go food place combined in one. I didn't take a full picture for people's privacy. Along with the Dunkin' and Doolittles Cantina, there's no eat-in place in concourse C unlike Emerald restaurant in Concourse A if that's your thing. This place does sell cans of beer, soda, chips, etc in the store.”

“We went through the drive-thru and the gentleman that helped me, was so kind. He was so friendly, and making sure he got my order correct. I enjoyed the customer service he put out there. He is friendly, nice, and very thorough.Although, my burger was wrong at least my kids food were right. LOL !”

“Very clean with a polite and friendly staff.Note: The address is wrong. Says Duke FLD but actually 7SFG which is 5 miles away. Also this location has limited hours compared to most Subway.”

“Went to the Popeyes on Eglin afb on 7/9/25 and there was a girl there by herself and she was great. There were a lot of people in line and I had a big order. The service was very fast and extremely professional. Great job. The food as always was amazing.”

“We had the best time! Lyric was awesome he was amazing with my kids and helped us have a great experience with the alligators!”

“Great food, great service, great time and we will be back.”

“Unbelievably tasty pizza! You won’t be disappointed! Got one picky eater who demolished his pizza and a sister from Chicago who said we had to hit this place up one last time before leaving 😋”

“We try to visit McGuire’s of Destin whenever we’re close. Always enjoy. Michael Brandon was our server this time and was wonderful.”

“My family and I LOVED Stewby’s! Definitely our favorite restaurant so far on our vacation! My husband got shrimp, I got the fried grouper, and our three kids all got the chicken fingers. Everything was amazing! Best fries anywhere! Also amazing desserts - banana pudding and key lime pie are delicious!! Amazing service from Audrey and the entire team! Highly recommend! 🫶🏽🤍”

“We visited the area for the first time in nearly two years last week. We were so happy to see Nicole still behind the bar! Not only did she recognize us out-of-towners, but even remembered all our names! Drinks are great, food is always stellar, and atmosphere is perfect. Can’t wait to come back, hopefully much sooner than later!”

“My team and I have had the opportunity to dine at Dat Burrito Place multiple times over the past month, and each visit was a delightful experience from start to finish. I can confidently say that their commitment to friendly and prompt service is unmatched. From hearty burritos and flavorful rolled quesadillas to mouthwatering Mexican street corn, rich and savory birria, and light and crispy fish tacos, there's something to please every palate on their menu. Treat yourself and support local by giving Dat Burrito a try!”

“Omgoodness. This place is so well staffed. The food is to die for. The owners are super personable and have made such a lovely experience. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”

“Absolutely wonderful dining experience. Our server Theda was so kind and courteous. She had some amazing recommendations for appetizers and our main course as well as cocktails and dessert. This was by far one of the best dinners my wife and I have had during our vacation trips. Definitely a must try!”

“I went their for the first time today and got a veggie sandwich. It was delicious and huge! The house made ranch was super yummy. And the lady at the front was very sweet. Will definitely be returning!”

“Louisiana here, all restaurants along the beach had a 3+ hour wait. So we decided to go across more in the town and try something new. No wait just walked in a very classy inside. We have never had Korean BBQ, everything we ate and drank was phenomenal. My Louisiana taste buds were very pleased! I would definitely come back on my next Florida stay if I am in the area.”

“This place is a MUST if you go to Destin. Our daughter moved there last year and introduced us to them and it is a staple of our visits now. The two guys working behind the counter are very friendly, and always playing around and teasing. It’s apparent they love their work and their customer service is top notch. All of the employees there are friendly and helpful! And, hands down…..the best ice cream!!”

“We stumbled upon this place bc the initial place we went to had a 2 1/2 wait time. Thank goodness for that or we would’ve missed out on a wonderful place! Very nice and clean, excellent service, delicious food, and generous portions. Worth stopping!”

“Had family “pop” in on us one day. I ordered a lot of take-out BBQ to satisfy my daughters and their husbands (they can eat). Papa’s had it ready for us quickly and the food was fantastic. Thank you Papa’s it was a good time.”

“Awesome food for the price. Food was fresh rice was on point sticky iky….Chicken had a good smoky teri taste and pork was juicy wet!!!!!”

“We stopped here on a whim for breakfast during a beach trip - and we'll definitely be back next time! Everything we had was so delicious, but especially the kolaches. The dough is so tender and flavorful, and clearly truly homemade. The cuban kolache was AMAZING and we wish we had gotten several for the drive home! We also enjoyed the boudin and conecuh kolaches. Our doughnuts, apple and blueberry fritters, and cinnamon doughnut holes were also tasty. We got boba and bubble tea which was great, with lots of good options. The service was friendly and helpful.”

“My husband had raw oysters and said they were some of the best he ever had. He then got the blackened grouper with an amazing sauce. I had the chicken alfredo and it was delicious! We had a great server, TJ!”
