When the sun goes down and the tourists start itching for a drink or a place to wear their dancing shoes, where do they go?  Some spots include:

  • Seville Quarter is a popular place to party in Downtown Pensacola. The 19th century building that once housed the Pensacola Cigar and Tobacco Company includes eight individual entertainment venues. End o’ the Alley is located outside in a quaint courtyard. Rosie O’Grady’s is also a great spot.  More information about this bar and the other bars of the historic area is at www.rosies.com.  
  • The Fish House deck is a favorite night spot for locals and tourists. The 3,500 square foot deck features a fire pit conversation area, full bar and bandstand for hearing great live music and enjoying the bay breeze on Seville Harbour. (www.goodgrits.com)
  • McGuire’s – There is hardly a town anywhere on the planet that doesn’t have an Irish pub to be enjoyed by locals and this is the favorite one in the Pensacola area.  The pub features several hundred thousand dollars in single bills, signed by patrons and posted on the walls and ceilings. http://www.mcguiresirishpub.com.
