10 Best Bars in Pensacola Beach

“my first time back to Pensacola in a long long time. and we were having kind of a bummer of a morning until we found the shaka! and Steven the bartender, one of the best! thanks to the entire bar for providing us a great spot to watch the Blue Angels today and have a tang banger or two ;-)“

“Great staff and atmosphere. The daytime DJ keeps everyone engaged. So much fun!“

“I came to visit bamboo Willy's after Labor Day 2025. I came around lunch time and the place was super chill. The bartender was absolutely wonderful and she was very attentive. Made sure I had what I needed and checked on me as often as I would prefer with not too much hassle. They're smoothie machine drinks are pretty good but can come across the little sweet. But don't fret they do have regular beers and other drinks available as they do have a full bar. An absolute must if you're walking around the boardwalk area in Pensacola you can take these drinks to go! You heard that correct you can take them to go in their styrofoam cups.“

“Best burger ever! Don’t spoil it by using ketchup. Also best Bushwhacker on the Gulf coast. Brittanie was an excellent waitress.“

“"Believe me the very next time our SnowBird relatives and friends come to visit/vacation Shaggy's Bar/Grill Restaurant definitely will be the only recommended place on the Beach to wine and dine. An Awesome place to eat. Fabulous place on the water over looking Inlet, delicious Food and our waitress KATIE was so tentative, helpful, warm and friendly with a DO COME BACK Atmosphere she Created. The upstairs Outdoors atmosphere and Vibes are awesome, we started off with the Seafood Fries, for our Main meal was the Captain's Platter for 2, was such a large portion we still had to ask for a carryout. My wife and I were celebrating our 52nd Anniversary, her 76th birthday and my 79th birthday on 16th of February. The Manager was Extremely Welcoming and Super Nice. Once KATIE found out we were Celebrating Our Birthdays and Anniversary She Gifted us each with slices of Fantastic Tasting Red Velvet Cake. The Food was delivered fast and Hot! Once again Very Friendly Staff, Definitely a 5-Star Restaurant!!“

“Amazing place. Need to come in and have lunch or drinks in the evening. Beautiful view of the beach and ocean. Great people and amazing service.“

“Our dinners and appetizer were spot on! We had the grouper bites and for dinner we had the stuffed shrimp and the stuffed grouper with crawdad Julie! Absolutely delicious!!! To add, our server Kassy was so polite and nice! She definitely represents the restaurant very well! Thanks for a great experience! Kris and Claire (Chesapeake Va)“

“Our group of 12 ladies had one of our best group brunches yesterday. All of our dishes were delicious and our waiter Danny was fabulous! Service was amazing. And not only did he know what we needed before we asked, he had a great personality and made our meal extra fun! Next time we go we are asking for Danny!“

“🏄🏻‍♂️great people and the best way to have fun…“
