It's the kind of diner that you expect to hear Mel shout from the kitchen, "Flow, get a move on!" The food is inexpensive, but very good. It's just a short drive (or a leisurely walk) from Pelican Place.

No one beats McGuire's!!! There is typically a wait, so don't get there too hungry. However, if you are starving by the time you get a table, not to worry! There portions are HUGE!!! Their craft brews are excellent, and they brew their own root beer for the non-drinkers.

Even if you don't like seafood, you have to check them out. In addition to the freshest gulf catch you will ever experience, they also have sushi (yes, I know that's just another fancy word for fish), wine, fresh-baked breads, cooking supplies and ingredients, and incredible gelato.

When you need an ice cream fix, and you know you will, stop in and get a scoop at Bubba Watson's own ice cream parlor. He's a local, and he is proud of his amazing fudges (and I don't mean the ones on the golf course). He doesn't need any Mulligan for this stroke.......of genius!

Whether it's 9AM or 9PM, who doesn't love a good doughnut. They are made fresh daily right before your eyes. Watch your gift from heaven go through the glaze waterfall and into your box in seconds. Having the warm, sugary goodness drip onto your fingers as you take a bite is as good as Christmas morning. Caution: Krispy Kreme doughnuts are as addicting as crack. Just sayin'!

They may not have everything you need, but touring the isles is an experience to remember. Their ambience, southern hospitality, and unique selections will take you back to the times you went with your granny to the little grocery in her home town. They serve fresh coffee by the Drowsy Poet, have a great selection of wines, and have a wonderful deli with made-to-order meals. If lunchmeat sandwiches on the beach doesn't appeal to you, then stop in here on your way to Pensacola Beach to get a personalized plate with all the fixin's.

This isn’t just any German restaurant. This is fine dining at it’s……..finest. (Sorry for the redundancy, but it’s just that good.) Their select of schnitzels the best I’ve ever had, and the beers on tap can’t be beat. If German food isn’t your thing, head to the back and watch your hand-tossed pizza bake in the brick oven. It’s genuinely dinner and a show.

If you are coming in the summer, you MUST take in a Blue Wahoos baseball game. You don't have to be into sports to have a good time here. It is truly fun for the whole family! There are plenty of good food vendors around the concourse, and the entertainment is always engaging for young and old. There are no bad seats. The park is small, and even the "worst seats" can have the best view of Pensacola Bay. You can watch baseball and sailboats at the same time. Don't miss the weekend fireworks show, it's top-notch. If you have kids with you, be sure to ask one of the staff how they can chase the roach. (It's not what you think!)

The Aviation Museum and Blue Angels viewing area on the flight line is current closed to civilians, but there are plenty of places around Pensacola you can watch our Angels practice. They winter out west and are usually in other cities doing shows each weekend, but there are plenty of opportunities to see them during summer weekdays. After 50+ years, their incredible maneuvers still take my breath away.

Graffiti Bridge is a working train trestle that crosses over 17th Avenue and is likely the only public place in the country where graffiti is encouraged. People from all over the world have been expressing themselves through spray paint for as long as we can remember. How many layers of paint are on it? Your guess is as good as ours!

This is an experience you will need to block off the whole day to enjoy. 30A is a stretch of road between Destin and Panama City, and is like nothing you have ever seen. There are several small towns along the way that have their own architectural theme. Each one has it's own set of shops and restaurants to discover. If you enjoy nature, there are plenty of trails, walking paths, and GORGEOUS beaches. Be sure to spend some time in Seaside where The Truman Show was filmed. It's so beautiful and quaint, any attempt to describe it would fall short.
