Paddy O'Leary's Irish Pub

This is the friendliest place to be .. From the Staff , the people that go there . They always have great music . Everyone gets a long . It's just a great place to go listen to music , dance , you definitely won't meet a stranger here . Everyone just dances it doesn't matter . No one is trying to pick you up . You can actually dance enjoy yourself and have fun. Everyone just dances freely . The Bartenders are extremely busy but you never have to wait for your drink they are really good at remembering what you're drinking & have it ready ... there can be people lined up but you don't have to wait .. they all have such a great attitudes. I went Sat. Night left my debit card , called the Manager he was so sweet he actually took a photo of the envelope where he was in the process of mailing it to me. . Wow. I live pretty far from there. Now that's what you call going that extra mile . There's plenty of room to dance . They have tables outside for you smokers .. they also have Security Guards for all us single ladies ... there's never been any problems. The drinks are ridiculous inexpensive but I'm not complaining just surprised, they don't have a cover charge. It's right there on beautiful Pensacola Beach .. I love this place .. I do a lot of social media and always try to get my Bartenders in and make sure and remind everyone to please tip well. They work really hard for tips . If you haven't been there you must go. You will be surprised what diamonds 💎 you will find that may look like a small place from the outside . Some of the best Entertainers in Pensacola, Fl... . I can promise you that. .. and the most beautiful people too ❤️ if you're hungry they also serve up food .. they can cook you up something in no time . I like their. Pizza. They have plenty of seating at the Bar as well. Dressing is casual. You're at the Beach . Most people wear shorts or Sun Dresses .. Just go and have a blast .... ❤️💃🎵🎸⛱️🎵💃🕺🔥🥂🥃🍸🍷🍻☕️🍕🍷❣️🇺🇲

Paddy O’Leary’s is that hidden gem dive bar you’re glad you found. Tucked just off the main drag near the boardwalk, it’s an old-school Irish pub with zero pretense and plenty of character. Dark wood, neon signs, dart boards, and cheap drinks—it’s exactly what you’d hope for in a real-deal pub.

This isn’t a touristy beachfront hangout; it’s more like your favorite neighborhood bar just happened to land by the beach. The bartenders are friendly but don’t babysit you—they treat you like a regular even if it’s your first time. Prices are some of the best on the beach, especially if you’re just looking to kick back with a beer or whiskey without blowing $15 on a cocktail.

They usually have live music or karaoke going on, and the vibe gets rowdy (in a good way) on the weekends. It’s 21+, so definitely more of a late-night spot. If you’re looking for glitz, this isn’t it—but if you want a strong drink, good people, and a break from the tourist traps, Paddy’s delivers.

I am Navy Two weeks in a row now minding my own business getting kicked out with no explanation do not recommend steer clear of this place!!!

Had an awesome 21st birthday here! Got there a little later than I wanted, but it was so much fun! Besides the creepy guy that was there touching on these young girls, but the staff kept an eye on him, and wound up having to make him put his shirt back on! Awesome staff, made me feel comfortable and safe even with a creepy guy in there, lol! I was able to have a good time.

Last night, my group and I unfortunately witnessed two LGBTQ customers being kicked out of this establishment for no reason. We were sitting at the table right next to them. I was disgusted and will not return to this place. This place also has a funny smell. 0/5.
