Restaurants near Eglin AFB

“When I got recycled during this phase, the Ranger instructors sometimes took us here. After that, we often watched movies at the auditorium. It felt like it would last forever, but I made it through. One of my peers complained that his urine had turned green, and I assumed it was because he drank too many energy drinks here.”

“Friendly and professional service with GREAT food and prices. Their daily specials are excellent and the Thursday smoked barbecue ribs with Mac 'n cheese, slaw, and a slice of garlic bread is one for the books.”

“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.”

“Great food with excellent service. Kristen exceeded all service expectations. We will be back very soon. Best breakfast in town.”

“We visited Fort Walton for the first time and I had already planned to visit this restaurant. I was so excited because of what I saw on the internet. It absolutely did not disappoint. We enjoyed the nachos & mixed drinks. The scavenger hunt was so much fun with my husband and 3 year old and the alligator show was so educational. We will definitely go back!! Oh, and we met “Henry” the 1 year old baby gator that we took a photo with!”

“Best pizza in Destin and it’s not even close”

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

“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. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”

“I recently dined with friends at the Marina Cafe. All the meals were delicious. We ordered the Sampler Dessert. It included multiple desserts that were all yummy. Cody was our waiter. He provided excellent service and made excellent recommendations. I would highly recommend dinner at the Marina Cafe.”

“I’m actually at the Valparaiso restaurant. I’m here because of a would you like us on my EXND page. Jeffrey M. Lane this is the Wednesday lunch spot. First impressions is clean and bright. I like that it’s not cluttered, great space to sit and eat. The menu is perfect, not too much not too little. Was paying for the food and asked about tips, was told we don’t accept tips. My meal was $19.87, so I got burger, fries and a drink. SO LETS GET TO THE MEAT AND POTATOES 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. There are no freezers to store food, all veggie’s are cut fresh daily as well as all burgers made daily. The drink was un sweet tea. Delicious, the small fries was a huge portion, for this fat guy there was a lot(bravo), now to the burger. Smoked Cheddar Bacon Burger( I’m like Homer Simpson in a doughnut shop) the burger was a fantastic messy and full of fresh onions, mayo. Do not be in a suit and tie for this lol. I devoured that tasty burger, while listening to 50-60’s music. Catherine was at the register and explained everything, very friendly employees. This is a must place to go to. They have two locations and Fridays are open until 7:30 I believe. They are only open 10-2 pm in the Valparaiso location. This is a business I proudly support. So if you are in lower Okaloosa County drop by and enjoy this delicious burger with a tasty beverage (in my Pulp Fiction Voice). DEFINITELY 5 STARS IN THIS”

“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.”

“Staff - 5 stars Iced Coffee - 5 stars Berry Burrata Toast - 5 stars Atmosphere - 5 stars Cozy spot in the middle of the chaos of Destin. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful! The iced coffee they recommended was so good. Indoor / Outdoor seating so you can enjoy every "season" Destin has to offer. I can't wait to go back and try some of their lunch items. 100% recommend next time you're 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!!”

“Went to Fish-On in Destin today and had an awesome experience. The manager and chef both came out and introduced themselves, which you don’t see much anymore. We learned they’re one of only three restaurants in Destin serving locally caught seafood that’s truly fresh — never frozen — and you can taste the difference. The chef has been on Hell’s Kitchen twice, and you can tell he takes real pride in what he puts on the plate. Everything we ordered was excellent, and the prices were surprisingly fair for the quality you’re getting. If you’re in Destin and want something legit, this place is a hidden gem. Highly recommend.”

“Great Italy like experience. Food is served hot and taste amazing. There is a large selection of food with a kids menu that has real food! Service is good and very family friendly.”

“Aahhhmazzinggg!!!! food smoked brisket tacos… the smoke is there for sure not just a hint… the carnitas tacos had great flavor as well the slaw that came with them was so tasty just enough vinegar to balance the richness of the meats… bonus got a complementary mango paleta… y’all definitely worth it”

“We had the sampler with Mac and cheese and baked beans. It was so good!! The employees were so sweet, personable and made us feel welcome. I HIGHLY recommend papa’s smokehouse.”

“Asiago’s is worth the wait! It’s usually never long, but goes to show how DELICIOUS it is! Amazing people! Amazing Service! Amazing food! We LOVE it!!!”
