Open 11:00 am - 9:30 pm. A combination of Southern comfort food and casual fare mixed in with a love of all things craft beer. Their take on a high energy dining experience is not one to be missed. My favorite is their New Orleans style shrimp.

Nice views from this traditional seafood restaurant which is located under the bridge in a marina. The vibe is a little upscale, but not too fancy. The menu was what you'd expect, lots of seafood dishes with a few non seafood options. Entrée's are priced in the $20-$30 range and come with a basic salad starter and two vegetable sides.

Open 11:00 am - 2:00 am First opened in 1977 as a small neighborhood pub in a shopping center. In 1982 McGuire's moves to its current location; Pensacola's original 1927 Old Firehouse. Inside the pub you'll find a turn-of-the-century, New York Irish Saloon themed 615-seat restaurant. I also love the atmosphere here with the $1 bills in the ceiling and memorabilia's, never had a bad experience here and servers are always friendly and top notch. Try their 18 cent soup!
