Things to do in Florida Panhandle, Florida Panhandle: The Best Nightlife
The Florida Panhandle is known for its quaint beach towns and interesting attractions, many of which are money-saving and family friendly. Come to the Florida Panhandle and relax on glorious beaches, shop to your heart’s content and dance the night away. Santa Rosa Island is great for kids and offers a wide array of both beach-based and water-based activities. Families will enjoy a day away to tour the 150-year-old Pensacola Lighthouse. The Florida Panhandle offers exciting nightlife. Panama City, Destin and Pensacola all have numerous bars and nightclubs to suit all tastes. Panama City is home to Club La Vela, the largest nightclub in the U.S. The Florida Panhandle is a shopaholic’s dream. It offers specialty stores, antique stores and shopping malls.

Restaurants in Florida Panhandle
1. Bradfordville Blues Club
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 33 reviews
The Bradfordville Blues Club experience is like no other. It combines a truly unique location and atmosphere with the best the Blues has to offer. Hidden in a rural part of Tallahassee, the experience begins when you travel down the winding dirt roads and up the hill that lead to the Club. Surrounded by fields of tall stalks of corn and old majestic oak trees dripping with moss, the one room cinder block “juke joint” has hosted an impressive list of nationally renowned Blues acts. The more than 50 original portraits autographed by the “Kings and Queens” of the Blues, which serve as table tops and wall hangings, attest to the quality of our entertainment. The Club is open on Friday and Saturday nights and offers a good selection of ice-cold bottled beers and wine. Just follow the tiki torches down the dirt roads till you reach the juke joint under the stars. We’ll keep the bonfire burning, the beer ice-cold and the music hot!

This was like living a dream night from the 30’s: fantastic energy, great positive vibe and amazing music in a juke joint setting with the small tables in front of the stage. The memorabilia is worth the admission alone. Saw Albert Castiglia there and had an awesome time. Truly could have used an additional wait staff, had to wait a long time for drinks, so we just started going to the bar ourselves and that was fine. Def coming back as much as we can.

The Shaka Bar is located on Little Sabine Bay on Pensacola Beach. This local bar is the best little Tiki bar on Pensacola beach. Nothing fancy just cheap drinks, cool peeps and awesome sunsets. Come by and grab a cold one, play some cornhole and enjoy the Reggae music. Aloha. We also rent paddle boards right here on the water.

This little tiki-style bar is tucked away behind Aloha Wine & Liquor on Pensacola Beach. Cheapest drinks around and opens at noon. Perfect for day drinking and watching the charter boats come in. Very friendly staff and you can even rent paddleboards here!

The Cape is a beautiful place and the Scallop RePUBlic would be an outstanding destination for a night of Florida craft brews, awesome views, and great music any time you're visiting! The staff and selection are the best anywhere and I'm from Beer City (Grand Rapids, MI)!

Temporarily Closed due to fire incident
Reviewed By lizs455 - Biloxi, United States
We were anxious to get back after the fire and closure due to the virus and we weren’t disappointed. I ordered the grouper fish and it was fabulous. Stacked on a bed of sautéed spinach that was stacked on a grit cake made a tower of deliciousness. The salad was generous and tasty. My husband ordered the crawfish shrimp pasta and he loved it. We actually saved room for the key lime cheesecake. All thumbs up! Just go there and you’ll love it. Another thing I like is their menu is small which means to me fresh!

The dozen chargrilled oysters, volcano sushi rolls , and super shrimp tempura rolls were a perfect lunch for two . It wasn’t crowded with beach tourists at 11:30 on a Sunday afternoon . We will be back. The oysters remind us of our favorite in NOLA at Dragos at the Hilton on the Riverfront.
