The Fat Pelican Reviews
I hadn't been back to the Pelican in over a decade before popping in this Christmas Day. It's a rough day for my family and we couldn't have asked for a kinder, sweeter, or friendlier group of locals.
The Pelican family went out if it's way to make us feel loved and welcome, to the point of tears. It's a memory that will stay in my mind as among the truest examples of the Christmas spirit I have ever experienced. Thank you 💚
I loved the Fat Pelican! Best dive ever.
Such a cool atmosphere! It was way bigger than I expected with a variety of interesting seating options. I really appreciated the option to go into the cooler to pick out my own beverage too.
