“If you haven't been downtown or it's been a while, you need to check it out! While there, you have to stop in at History Class! Their brews never disappoint and I'm partial to their buffalo chicken and fried bologna sandwiches. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Raw and grilled oysters were superb, and what a fantastic environment and staff.”
“The best food and the best service we’ve had on this trip to Panama City, FL! The Florida oysters were very flavorful and the grilled shrimp were very good. We will definitely be coming back!”
“If you're looking for a refined yet cozy dining experience that pairs sophisticated flavors with an exceptional wine list, St. Andrew’s Bodega is a must-visit. Nestled in the heart of the St. Andrews/Panama City, this charming bodega delivers an elevated food and wine experience that goes beyond the ordinary. The moment you walk in, the ambiance sets the tone—warm, inviting, and stylish without being too pretentious. The décor cleverly blends a bodega charm in a relaxed and refined setting, making it the perfect spot for everything from casual dinners to special occasions. Brunch is a must-try also!”

“Lovely restaurant on the ocean. Great service and one of the best steaks I've ever had.”
“Update….. Sept. 27, 2024….
Each time we come, I order something different and it is just so good! Kylee, the waitress is excellent! Thank you for such an exceptional experience! The chef definitely knows how to get to all my tastebuds!
Such a nice little place! Each time we have visited it has been just fabulous! The food and the waitstaff are superb!! Reanne is absolutely precious! We would steal her away for our own restaurant if we could. The food is always delicious! Hope the owner knows how lucky he is with the staff here. We will continue to return from the other side of bridge for food and drink. Just FYI, we have noticed that the constant bending to go under the bar is awkward for staff the last 3 times we have visited.”
“We had an amazing time at BurgunBarrel! The space is absolutely adorable and the team was incredibly accommodating. Communication was seamless, and setting up everything was so smooth and stress-free. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. I’m already looking forward to hosting another event there. Highly recommend!”

“We had an absolutely incredible experience at this Cuban restaurant! We ordered the Guajiro family meal, and wow it fed all seven of us with ease, and we still had plenty of leftovers to take home. Every dish was packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and clearly made with love. What really made the night special though was our server Andra!!! She was beyond amazing, so kind, attentive, and absolutely hilarious. She made us feel right at home, like we were dining with family. It’s rare to find service that genuine and joyful. Delicious food, generous portions, and top tier hospitality, we’ll absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend! 💯🇨🇺”
“This is definitely a staple and one of the best restaurants to really uphold the influence and standards for the community. This is coming from a local… going on 32 and lived here since I was 5. They are one of a kind. I absolutely love the art and atmosphere. This bar is a an atmosphere like no other. Seth and Cat were absolutely amazing and offered wonderful customer service! If you get the chance I would recommend asking for them because they were also so knowledgeable about every drink and all of the food.”
“After having the absolute worst experience at their neighbor establishment, The Grand Marlin, Captain Anderson’s exceeded all expectations. Our party of 13 was quickly given a large table, the drinks were great, food was on par, and the staff were all friendly from the get. The sweet woman at the desk to check in, the staff along the way to the table, our server, and the other waitstaff. 10/10 recommend. If you’re trying to decide which of the two to dine, Grand Marlin or Captain Anderson’s, I highly recommend the latter.”

“Arrived at 10:05 for lunch because breakfast ended at 10:00. One server took our drink order and said our server would be taking our order shortly. 10 minutes later she took our order. Meanwhile over the next 30 minutes several customers arrived and were served drinks and meals. Our server returned a couple of times with excuses why our food wasn't ready. After waiting patiently for 1 hour we got up and left. No one approached us to ask why we were leaving. This was our first visit to Big Mamas and will not be returning.”
“Kathy is a wonderful server. She made sure we had everything we needed. The food is delicious. It was my parents 1st time and they enjoyed it very much. At 12 everyday they play the Star Spangled Banner, everyone stops and honors the flag. A true patriotic establishment. I have never been disappointed. 23rd Street location in Panama City Fl”

“Typical Olive Garden restaurant. Service is generally good overall and we've never had to wait to be seated for dinner on weekends or weekdays (party of 2). Portion sizes are large and we almost always stake leftovers home. We don't ever get handed the Andes mints though.”
“Ferrucci’s has become a favorite of my friend group. Everything we order is incredible and you know that they put their hearts into it. The best part though is the service. You feel cared for from the minute you walk in.”
“A great experience each visit. Games on the 6 televisions with lots of fun company to banter with. Margherita's aplenty, Captains punch flowing on a steady basis kept the laughs going well into a beautiful sunset. Highly recommend for that twice a year special evening of fun for grown-ups.”

“The one in Panama City beach who delivered with Uber.., If this is the place the Chicken was burned or old it was horrible.. The fish had an ammonia smell like to it.. The rice jambalaya was very dry. Shrimp was sweet..not as in good..I do not advise you to go unless you are there to see them cook fresh ingredients.. I've ordered before a couple of times but it is a hit or miss....I love their chicken livers and gizzards so I'm giving it 5 stars..Ask them for the times they make their chicken.”
“Simple coffee shop/kiosk located post-security at the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport and located next to Gate 1, across from the restaurant on the concourse. In addition to coffee, there is also a selection of bakery items. Usually line moves fairly quick, but can get a bit crowded in terms of the line since it is right in the gate area.”
“Great customer service & everything was fresh! You don't see many subways with both these days! As I sat there eating my lunch, The manager treated every customer like they were her best friend, so kind, & sweet! Also, the one lady with dreads was on top of keeping everything stocked, & she was making sure every customer smiled!! Most definitely satisfied with my experience today!😁”
“We had an awesome experience this past weekend! The food was excellent, cooked the way we wanted it and Gus, our server, was excellent! Hope to dine there again next time we are back!”
“The closest to Louisiana crawfish that I’ve found in Bay county!!! 10/10!!”
“I am a platinum IHG member who stays at this hotel at least once every year. I love everything about this place and it is the only hotel in PCB where I'll ever stay. On some visits, we never leave the hotel because everything you could ever need is right there. My only complaint about my 9/2023 stay is the way we were treated by a member of the hotel staff on our last night. We were walking through the parking lot on our way back from dinner. One member of our party happened to exhale vape smoke in the hotel parking lot. That prompted one of the hotel staff to become very rude and order us to the smoking area. He was so rude that we chose to simply walk past him and not even acknowledge that he was talking to us. I do understand that the hotel is completely smoke free but that staff member could obviously tell from our wristbands that we were hotel guests and could have been a little friendlier toward us. Because I did not want to ruin the last night of our vacation, I chose to let this event slide. However, if another staff member of this hotel is ever rude towards me or any other members of my party during future stays, I will immediately report them to hotel management. After all, my visits help to pay the salaries of the staff members and if I am not treated respectfully, I can find another hotel to support.”

“If I could rate them higher I would, not only do they have amazing tasting coffee my favorite is 'Birdie Brew" but their avocado toast is the delicious. The Drip has never been just a coffee shop to me they are like family, the warm welcome you get as you walk in and the exceptional service you receive makes you want to stay and hangout, if you have children the indoor playground is a must on those hot days. We absolutely love it, such an awesome place in our community.”
“They were super helpful absolutely loved how the people at the window took the time to walk me through my drinks. To make sure that I had all the options and understood and I was able to get a sugar-free caramel sugar-free pie Frappuccino with oat milk. fantastic I recommend going to this place anytime you get a chance.”
“Alice’s was highly recommend by a local. I had grilled grouper and it was excellent! Best fish dinner I’ve had in a long time. Father-in-law had fried shrimp, also excellent! For desert I had bread pudding with a bourbon sauce, also excellent! I’ll definitely be back again!”
“Maddie’s is a fabulous family restaurant located in the heart of downtown Panama City. It’s a must visit place if you enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine. They have the best homemade salsa and tacos in town. Fantastic food, fantastic service and a hometown atmosphere.”

“Very nice covered patio with a wide scenic view. The fresh kettle chips are a little inconsistent and there is a degree of "portion control" that makes it overall a little pricey. The food is quite good, however.”

“They made an amazing gluten free chocolate chip cake that was moist with a cream cheese frosting! My family bought it for an event where multiple guests had gluten sensitivities, and everyone ended up enjoying it; of the entire dessert table, that cake disappeared quite quickly!”
“The staff were friendly and helpful. The shop is reminiscent of an old-time pizza shop. Clean and welcoming. We shared the capressee appetizer, which was freshly made in front of us. It was excellent. I had a slice of the surf and turf. It was really great. The crab cakes were delicious mixed with the shaved steak. My wife had a slice of the House. The meats and veggies were fresh and made delicious. Great place will have more visits.”
“Friendly service and a very clean place with great food! The views from here cannot be beat for dinner 😍”

“This visit was extremely special and I am grateful for the amazing staff they are very friendly and done a magnificent job. Compliments to the managers and the staff team and crew. The food was amazingly delicious. And the atmosphere was so awesome. For the first time I had my meal paid for my someone I didn’t even know I a special day to me, celebrating Father’s Day and my daughter who was born a month ago today. Thank you to Po Folk for being a part of Bay county for so long, this location will always have me and my family coming back time and time again.”
“Dined inside. Ordered Sweet & Sour Chicken and General Tso's Chicken. Came here with some cravings for chinese, and generally speaking, most spots are mid at best. This spot is not "superior" with flavors that are out of this world, but I think it is exceptional in it's simplicity and has authentic flavor profiles, which in my mind is exactly what I was looking for. The sweet and sour was impressively good and one of the best I've ever had. Very well put together meal. The curb appeal is not the best quite frankly, but the food is very impressive. This is our favorite chinese spot in town.
Wheelchair accessibility: This place has a ramp and plenty of parking.”
“Applebees 23rd st whoever worked march 9th the closers who made my wonton tacos are great. Y’all did ya thang. I appreciate that keep up the great work y’all actually make ya food from the heart”

“The lady on the counter on Thursday night was nice. Every time I come in the last few times she knows my name and knows what I order. You can tell that she not from the area. It’s nice to see the store look cleaner also when I come in. Someone should give her a raise. Thank you Beth”
