For 9 of us, it was about 45 minute wait at 5:15. The waiting area room was nice...we ordered tuna dip (the best) and cocktails while waiting. Our waitress (Ashlyn I think...she is also a teacher) was wonderful!! My dad got the pulled pork since he is allergic to seafood and said it was delicious. The key lime pie was so good !!! read more

You know this place is great based on the lines for days just to get to the hostess window to put your name in and wait! We could see why. If you plan to visit, get ready for a worth it wait. We sat outside which was very nice with a breeze. Everyone was pleased with their food. The ribs did fall off the bone although I didn't feel there was as much flavor as say Fridays or other restaurants. My sister's Mahi BLT was enjoyable and prepared well but she would have preferred it be hot. Blake was a great guy and we enjoyed him. read more

FO NOT GO!!! The people that eat here have to be very old and have no taste buds. No smell. This was the worst food I have ever had in PCB. The large jalapeño mango margarita was $16 and it was from a mix that tasted terrible. The server exchanged it for a lime one but of course, just as bad. The mahi blt was discussing. It tasted like a tuna fish sandwich. The bacon was limp too. My husband and his friend had the ribs. They said they were the worst ribs they ever they ever had. They tasted sour. No one ate their meals. read more

This restaurant was across from the condo that my boyfriend & I stayed at while on vacation. I have heard many good things about Pineapple Willys so we decided to check them out. We got there around 5:30pm and were told there was a 5 minute wait. Not even 2-3 minutes later we were walked back for a table. Our waiter did a great job recommending items for us, since we had both never been to the restaurant. I had the grilled chicken dinner & my boyfriend had the jack Daniel bbq ribs bucket. Both were delicious! I also had a frozen margarita in the flavors strawberry & lemonade! You get to keep the big cup and the drink was yummy! Most definitely would recommend read more

Pineapple Willy's - Some Instagramable spots outside! - Seafood Near Me - Panama City Beach, Florida

Great place on the beach! Fun atmosphere and good service! We arrived around 5pm and beat the dinner rush (when we left they had a very long wait). Our waiter was attentive and helpful. Typical beach bar food (most items fried). Drinks come in reusable cups, the medium and larger sizes can be refilled for a discounted price. Overall great experience and a fun place to grab lunch/dinner! Only 4/5 stars due to a limited menu and even though our food was good, there was nothing special about it. Wish they had a few more signature items to separate themselves from other beachfront bar restaurants. read more

Pineapple Willy's - Miami Vice in a medium reusable cup - Seafood Near Me - Panama City Beach, Florida

For this place being such a hot and busy tourist spot, I am honestly so shocked at how great our experience was! Pineapple willies was right under our condo at shores of Panama so it was a 3 minute walk. We only had to wait about 15 minutes for a table and it was a hot and busy Friday afternoon! That was already a great start. Once we got seated, our server Matt I believe, was great! He had the best personality and made our experience that much better. I got the mahi mahi BLT and it was HUGE. The lettuce, tomatoes and bun were all so so fresh and every bite was so tasty. read more

We came here for an early dinner one night and had a thirty minute wait. The wait time flew by since there is a huge bar open. We got drinks in a souvenir cup and they were delicious! Tons of frozen option. When we were seated, we ordered and the food came out quick! It was hot and fast service, but the food itself was very average. Nothing spectacular. We would come back for drinks, but probably not for the food. read more

Food is good and we like the Ambiance. Location is great. Service has always been good. My family comes here every time we are in Panama City Beach. read more

It's the ambience here that makes the restaurant. Staff seems to be overworked and extremely overwhelmed at times due to the sheer volume of people that are attracted to this place. Gift shop is great and food was average. No complaints about the best view on the gulf for a restaurant. read more

Super fun and view is outstanding! They sell their signature cups you can refill, which is great, but drinks are super sugary and didn't seem to be very strong. I had the frozen pina colada and my bf had the pineapple Willy, which comes on the rocks. Both super sweet. The cup is nice! We wanted to wait for outdoor seating. They said 45 min but we were sat in probably 30 min. Not bad attal since we were sipping our drinks and enjoying their patio looking at the ocean. Once we were sat we ordered their Shoot the Hooch moonshine shots. I tried watermelon and peach. My bf had peach and chocolate. All of them were delish! For dinner I ordered the bucket of ribs (I came knowing I was going to order everything with a freebie) and my bf had the shrimp po'boy. Ribs were okay. I happen to really like and seek out hood bbq so don't let my opinion phase you. They were good just not Fox Bros good. My bf loves his sandwich and it was piled high with shrimp! We'll definitely come back again! read more

Since it is right across from our condo very convenient for our 1st night dinner at PCB. They had a special on the bucket of ribs so that was a great bonus! Our server was excellent. I wish I remembered her name. It's right on the beach with a great outside area if the weather is nice. read more

My sister and I came to PCB for a girls trip. We stayed right next to pineapple Willy's and we expected to wait atleast an hour for a table. Nope, we were seated instantly outside on the pier where we asked. Our waitress was on it and the food was quick. I ordered the mahi mahi dinner and my sister ordered the shrimp dinner. There was more than enough food for the two of us!! The drinks were strong and good. The pier was beautiful and if it gets too windy they put the screen down! Def wouldn't recommend to anyone visiting pcb. read more

Let me tell you how awesome this place is. My son, granddaughter, and myself went in for dinner on 10/6/2022. Now, this is one of the most popular places to eat in Panama City Beach. The main parking lot was already full so we had to park in the overflow lot. The line was pretty long by the time we got there, but we got a table less than 15 minutes from the time we parked and walked a block to the restaurant. The server was quick to take our drink orders and we placed our dinner order as soon as she brought our drinks. I had the roast beef dip, my son had the shrimp meal, and my granddaughter had a garden salad. The food came out within 10 minutes. It was all very good and reasonably priced. Now, here is the very awesome part of this experience at this restaurant. My granddaughter left her wallet sitting on the table when we left. She didn't realize it for at least two hours. It had a considerable amount of cash and some expensive air pods in it. We didn't think there would be a chance at all that the wallet would be saved. My son went in and asked if it had been turned in. To our great surprise, it had been. All the contents were still there. We did not find out which staff turned it in, but who ever it was, we are so very thankful. This could have ruined our vacation, but instead it showed us there is hope for humanity. Thank you Pineapple Willys for such a great experience. read more

This place is so incredibly yummy!! I went with a group of 8 girls and every single person loved their food. Would recommend this place and will definitely be eating there again myself. I also couldn't say enough amazing things about our waiter. He mentioned he had worked there for 10+ years and was so knowledgeable on the menu as well as things to do around Panama. Great attitude; he obviously loves what he does! read more

I've been coming here for over ten years and was lucky enough to be able to bring my boyfriend and our son for the first time yesterday. The drinks were amazing as always, the food was great (and there is a LOT of it), and we had a great experience overall. This is a staple for me and now for our whole family. Can't say enough good things! read more

We visited Pineapple Willy's during a stormy day at PCB. We were looking for a place on the beach that had great food and also allowed dogs. That's a tall order, right? Pineapple Willy's delivered on all of the above plus the absolute best service we've gotten during our visit to PCB. Our server, Michael, really knocked it out of the park. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and checked on us frequently to make sure we were happy. The rest of the staff fired on our two dogs and brought them a bucket of water. Our food came out quickly and was delicious. My wife has the seafood cobb salad. I had the oyster poboy. Her salad was huge with a nice blend of fresh ingredients. The oysters in my poyboy were plump, juicy and well-seasoned. We also shared an order of the smoked tuna dip, that was really good. Thank you all, especially Michael, for a great experience. We are looking forward to our next visit. read more

We went here with our softball team to celebrate winning the World Series. Very cool place with a fun atmosphere and fantastic view. Get here early because it gets crowded. There are parking lot attendants which are very helpful and active. The drinks are delicious and refreshing but the seafood was phenomenal! We are locals from Pensacola and the seafood here did not disappoint. Everything was fresh and well cooked. Highly recommend read more

Love this place!! Super friendly staff! They are very knowledgeable about food intolerances and have different menus. Since I can't have dairy or gluten they just give me the black book with all of the food and ingredients listed. Seriously huge time saver. I love knowing that I can eat here and not get sick afterwards. I will be returning the next time I'm in town!! read more

Sweet people , awesome drinks & food is great !! Love the patio area with the beach view while you eat definitely a plus !! Highly recommend

Have been here many many times and always have enjoyed it. Rather just drinks or a full meal the service and food is always perfect. It's a little overpriced tourist trap, but the best kind. Buffalo shrimp and ribs are my favorite food, and of course the pineapple Willy is the best drink there. read more

This place is one of the reasons we choose to come to Panama City Beach. Yes, of course there is always a wait but it's worth it. Plus you can go sit inside the bar, listen to some live music and drink some drinks while you wait. The seafood platter was great! A little bit of everything. You gotta check out Pineapple Willy's if you're in PCB! read more

We ain't here during spring break. We fought through this giant crowd from the next-door resort to get up to the restaurant, so we assume there was going to be a giant line to get to eat. To our surprise, we were seated right away, and there were not a lot of people inside. we got our food fairly quickly. The food was really good and the atmosphere was awesome. We could see the sea from our seats and it looked like we were out in the middle of the ocean. The weather was kind of rough so it looked cool. The crowd was super rowdy outside but we couldn't hear any of it from where we were at and we're completely unaffected. our waiter was awesome and very friendly. read more

I love this place. I went around 1pm, and I was able to get seated right away AT THE END OF THE PIER, RIGHT NEXT TO THE WATER! My server Kaci was amazing. I ordered the Mahi Mahi BLT and a small daiquiris (it was blue razzle or something like that). It was also good, and refreshing from the heat of the beach. Overall, I recommend! read more

Omg if I could give 10 stars I would. My husband took me here to celebrate my 40th birthday tonight. We ordered gator bites for an appetizer. I have to admit I was scared. But they were so freaking good dipped in their remoulade sauce was fire!!! I ordered the shrimp and grits YUM!!! my husband ordered the island nachos YUM!!!! We each got a daiquiri. I got blue razz and my husband got orange lush. And they come in souvenir cups you take home. We each got a moonshine pickle shot. The shot itself was good but the pickle you eat afterwards... I did not like it but my husband loved it. Those also come is little shot glass mason jars that say shoot the hooch that you get to keep. And of course we chose to sit outside because it right on Panama City Beach. We were seated right away. And our server CORD was simply perfection. Very attentive and friendly and knowledgeable of the whole menu had answers for ALL my questions. All in all the whole experience was fabulous!! read more

Chicken Cesaer salad --yuck! Boxed croutons, packaged salad dressing, very small amt of chicken.

Haven't eaten here in a few years, food was better than I remembered. Service was great, especially Jamie! Expect a long wait, typically an hour, but it was nice to be able to go inside the newly built Pier Bar (part of pineapple Willy's), that had AC, live music, a bar and appetizer service. It made the hour wait go by very fast. Typical beach bar food, but delicious and drinks were well poured (you get your moneys worth)! Ask to sit outside, the view is worth it! read more
