Perfect Plain is a great place to spend the evening after a long day at the beach. If craft beer isn’t your thing, then step out back to Garden & Grain: an outdoor, garden inspired, cocktail bar.

There is no better place to take the family to have an experience like no other. This Pensacola landmark has been a staple in the community since 1977. The atmosphere alone is well worth the visit, but the food, craft beer, and specialty cocktails will not disappoint.

Local Beach Spots
If you are looking for low stress and easy beach parking, go where the locals go. These are my favorite beach spots.
Park East is the best beach on the Gulf side to take the kids. There is plenty of parking and a large bathroom facility available there. It is a bit of drive down the beach, but it is well worth it. For those who like snorkeling, there is an artificial reef not far off of the beach.

If you’re looking for a healthy way to start your beach day, grab an açaí bowl and a cup of coffee at Bear Fruit Bowls at the Pensacola Beach Pier.
