Bars & Pubs on Pensacola Beach

Our barrier island boasts some of the most authentic and character-filled watering holes that you’ll find anywhere. Wherever you venture, the island’s dominant vibe is always casual. It’s come as you are and just enjoy. We’ve got historic dive bars whose walls and barflies have weathered countless storms, tiki bars with views of the emerald green Gulf, and chic boardwalk dance nightclubs. Many beachside bars have spacious patios with salty sea air wafting through.
