Pinapple Willy's

The view is great, the food is good. I would recommend that everyone visit at least once. I would recommend to my visitors from out of town. Either you will enjoy it or not - Give it a shot.

The grouper basket is amazing!

We went to Pineapple Willy's over the weekend and sat out on the pier deck. The weather was perfect! So was the service, even though there was a crowd. I got the grouper basket, which was SO great! Full of grouper and fries, they don't skimp on anything over there!!... Their pineapple coleslaw was tangy and went great with the grouper. It was extra but was only 25 cents which I thought was a good deal! My boyfriend got the ribs and loved them! I had one and it was really meaty and the sauce was excellent. We'll definitely go back next time we are in PCB!!

Awesome ribs!!!!

I love this place! We came down for spring break and got a table outside. Even though the place was packed, the service was good and so was the food! I got the ribs and they were sooo good - fall-off-the-bone tender, great flavor. My friends got the popcorn shrimp a...nd grouper finger baskets. Everyone loved what they got. The place was hopping since it's right in the heart of PCB. Great atmosphere!

Amazing food, great atmosphere

The people at Pineapple Willy's know what they're doing. They know how to make some awesome food (baskets of popcorn shrimp or grouper fingers, sandwiches, salads, a bucket of fall-off-the-bone ribs, etc.) and serve it quick. It's accommodating for families, Spring B...reakers, and locals. I've never had a bad experience here. We've got a condo next door and when we have out-of-towners over, we always take them here.

Enjoyed great ribs outdoors on their pier

A must-visit for when you are in Panama City Beach. Try to eat outdoors; it's covered and breezy, with a great atmosphere. The food is delivered lightening-quick. They are best known for their ribs, popcorn shrimp and grouper finger baskets, and grouper BLT, but it's al...l good. Service is quick and friendly, and there's usually not a long wait, if any, because the place is huge. They recently opened a new area on the property that has a stage for live entertainment, another bar, and dining area. Parking is pretty good, but when it's during the busy season, especially spring break and holidays, expect things to be a little tight. The prices of the place are reasonable for PCB. Family-friendly too.

Pineapple Willy's has great service

Pineapple Willy's has great service, FAST turnaround after you order, and awesome food! The rib bucket is a must-have..the ribs are falling off the bone! The fried shrimp and grouper baskets are huge and always fresh and crispy. They have great drinks, a large outdoor... area (that's covered to keep away the weather and pesky birds), and there is rarely a wait. I have always been pleased with what I've ordered, the friendly staff, and the reasonable prices. You won't find a burger here, but why have a burger when you can have fresh fried or grilled seafood? And don't forget their pineapple slaw! They are very family-friendly with their kid-sized baskets, and they have plenty of nightlife options during the season in their new bar area, complete with a stage, where you can have your favorite drink, some great food, and awesome entertainment. Pineapple Willy's is a must-visit with you are at Panama City Beach.
