The food was fresh, cooked to order. Many nice choices, and good service. The locals eat here too so you know it is a good choice. There was some live music going on while we dined, and though it was very loud, it still added to the atmosphere. The place was VERY busy and we did have to wait for... More

My wife has a love of the small, deep fried crab claws that we have to satisfy when in this neck of Florida. Ate lunch at Pete's twice and she got a double order each time. I enjoyed the fish of the day both times. Go easy on the drinks, the price is high, especially the margarita's. Of course, that... More

We recently moved to the area and this has become our favorite restaurant. We weren't sure what to expect the first time being on the beach but were pleasantly surprised! We are both fairly healthy eaters so having baked and grilled options are a huge plus. All their food is very well seasoned and all the sides and veggies are... More

We stopped at Peg Leg Pete's for lunch while spending a day at the beach. Expect it to be a busy place. You can choose to sit outdoors or indoors where it is air conditioned. There are some fun pirate statues for photo ops. The food was good and the kids meals are served in sand buckets that can be... More

My boyfriend and I took the kids out for family time. Of course we went around dinner time on a Saturday so we had an hour and a half wait which was fine because they had live music so we were able to keep the kids entertained. Once we were seated our waiter, Chris, came right over and went over... More

Let me start by saying that when we (my wife, me, and our two young children) were walking up to the restaurant we were greeted by someone singing a Jimmy Buffet song and the smell of fresh seafood! We knew we were in the right place. They have indoor and outdoor seating which is a plus and from what I... More

Have playground for kids on sand. Parents can sit around and watch kids while enjoying drinks from bar. Upstairs dining offers more variety in food choices. Live entertainment was great.

We travel all over the US. When we travel, as well as all our friends, we make it point to stop in Pensacola specifically to go to Peg Leg Pete's. It is hard for us to order past the appetizers. The sampler oyster is four different recipes of twelve oysters that we got two orders along with the calamari. Perfect... More

This was the best food we've ever had. Everybody tried grouper, even in the kids meal. No wander this place is so popular.

Must say the oysters here are FANTASTIC. Can't wait to go back. It is so damn busy, it can be frustrating. Liquor served in plastic, I guess so you can cruise around the beach with your alcohol, but I thought a crime to pour Ketel One in plastic. I would say stay upstairs unless your kids want to fool around... More
