The fish and chips are excellent. So is the grilled fish sandwich if you are looking for a slightly healthier option. Kids meals are often served on a frisbee.
Lunch specials are available and if you are down for an early dinner, they offer a discounted dinner special on their fish and chips between 4 and 6pm

Delicious food, but a tad bit higher priced than Floyd’s (and similar menu). The balcony has a great view of the beach and ocean. Kid’s meals often come with a bucket and shovel.

Sightseeing
Great restaurant selection as well as fishing from the pier. They have weekly activities such as free movies on the beach, fireworks, hula dancing shows, and live music. There is a playground and splash pad area for kids.
We recommend walking. It’s only a 15 minute walk along the beach (It will take you just as long to drive there and find parking during the busier season)

There are 2 Targets nearby, Mary Esther and Destin. The Mary Esther target is likely quicker to drive to during the summer as traffic towards Destin increases. Otherwise they are both about equally close.
