Pineapple Willy's Reviews

Service was quick.
Waitress was on point.
Cheese Curds a must amazing.
Prices where fair since its tourist spot.
Will return

Best service I've ever had. Food was very good and FAST. Wait staff was second to none. Every person that walked by was looking for some way to help. As soon as the ketchup bottle squirted it's last drop, a random employee was there with a new bottle.

Best food and service on the beach. Perfect daquries!

We were down here for vacation for our spring break, trying to have a good time. My waitress was rude. My friend just wanted a strawberry margarita in her cup (that we got from our awesome experience at the wicked wheel). The waitress checked her ID, gave it back and walked off. She then came back with a man, who I'm assuming was her boss, who then took my friends ID for the second time, bending it and examining it. He gave it back, and gave her a thumbs up and we thought all was good. My friend was very polite during this whole show, might I add. The man then came back, asked for the ID for a THIRD time. By then, I was livid. Of course my friend was calm and polite. He took the ID and proceeded to a place for better lighting where he held the ID under the light, talking to another girl. Just staring at it. Brought it back and told her not to let anyone have a drink, or else. OR ELSE. Then, our waitress says, as she's finally getting us some refills, that my friend had to either drink her drink or dump it out because she couldn't take it with her. $10 to fill her cup. It was one margarita. It took forever to get out of there, but when we did we were stopped and they made her pour out the 1/4 of margarita she had in her cup. Wasted. While we were in he parking lot, I counted 4 people who had those same cups and they were FULL OF ALCOHOL. So, why were we harassed?

Great restaurant. Good food. Great drinks. On the beach perfect for the whole family.

Awesome food, drinks and great service. Loved it!!!

Great food. They make an amazing Hurricane here. Ask for it

Love the ribs and the wings. It's an impressively managed establishment. The food comes out fast and the drinks are tasty. It's not fancy or anything but it's fun to go to on during a vacation.

Loved our trip back here. Outstanding service and the food was not bad either

There is nothing special about the food. I had shrimp po boy and it was fried shrimp on bread, that's it. No sauce or seasoning. Very plain.

Good food, great service, nice atmosphere, reasonable prices! Great drinks too! Pina colodas, margaritas, brews!

We were seated within 10 minutes, great outdoor dining area, be sure to try the smoked tuna dip and the Mahi BLT! Great atmosphere, friendly staff, all around a great experience!

Great food great service. Might be a wait for a table but it is worth it

Excellent Food and Service... but on the other hand .. rude customers ...

When we come to PCB I always go to Pineapple willys and they have the best atmosphere and excellent food. I always have to get a shirt when I go. Love, love, love this place.

two thumbs up for this place. service treated us so kindly.

Food is okay, expensive. Drinks are okay but expensive. Way too packed definitely people overload.

Great frozen cocktails! Always extremely busy... The peel and eat shrimp were amazing!

Good location, fun atmosphere and kids love the pineapple cups:))) drinks are almost unbeatable and the take home cups are a huge plus however, be prepared to spend some money on average food. Would definitely visit again but not for food necessarily, maybe an appetizer and drinks and the overall fun, family friendly atmosphere.

First time eating here. Very nice hostess and delicious food. Will definitely eat here again on my next vacation to Panama City Beach Florida.

Good laid back restaurant. Staff was super friendly.

The drinks were really good but the food was not so great

This is, in my opinion, one of the worst restaurants in PCB. It's super crowded and the food is disgusting. If you want fresh seafood or fish this is not the place for you. Everything is fried and frozen. Three out of 10 people at our table were sick to their stomach after eating here.

Place is always crowded. Food is not that great. Parking is awful when it is busy. Pricey.

Very good food, great fast service! Plenty of seating so we didn't have to wait long.

All around great place. Love the gator bites and Mahi Mahi basket.

It was great we sat outside and the food was delish!!

Well it s the best place around not your typical run of the mill food!

We gaved it a try since it was at a walking distance and beachfront restaurant. I was so disappointed with the menu , not alot of options. Food was not good , did not had any flavor and over priced. Very disappointed

Way cooler than I expected. Wouldn't recommend this place to anyone passing through.

Great place love it's by the ocean love the take home mug

The food was cold i was told thst the mash potatoes were homemade but they where fake flake potatoes.
The fish was precooked.

Food was great and the works was friendly and helpful

The nacho grande was the bomb. Was really nice having an air conditioned waiting area. I thought the prices were a little high and dang near everything is fried. I would not order the alligator po boy again. Service and timing were average.

Great view and good food. Owner does a lot for the community.

Nice beautiful spot to eat and watch the sunset I recommend to eat at the pier

So good!! The mahi mahi is amazing, ask for some horseradish if you like things a little spicy though!!

The frozen drinks are the best! The 190 octane is the real deal

Wonderful people to be around when enjoying your meal. Excellent food and service as usual.

Great service and great food ! 5 stars from the Georgia boy !

I could find something to eat every single day. Carry plenty of money when you go. Food great but pricey. Bit of a tourist trap. Have their own parking squad and roving photographer

Great food, great drinks, really busy but the service is still fast

The wait was much shorter than expected for such a popular place, only about 20 minutes. Once we were seated, the waiters were very responsive and eager to help us. Our waiter for the night, Nathan, is the main reason I'm giving this place a 5-Star rating, though. A mixture of friendly interactions, mindful thinking, and giving us magic tricks and literal puzzles while our food was cooking was a unique, fun and memorable way of biding our time. Would absolutely recommend for families or friend groups looking for hospitable place and good food in Panama City.

A local told us to get the bucket of ribs to go from the bar. They came out extremely fast. The ribs were fall off the bone tender and extremely tasty. Enjoyed sitting in the sand eating some great ribs. Drinks aren't too bad either. I recommend getting them to go so you can add as much or as little alcohol as you would like.

Love this place ! Food and service great until the manager commented on my son's military ID he gave waiter for a discount. She was actually quite RUDE and inappropriate to ack like she was doing us a favor by accepting it. It was a legal ID issued by the Military. We were with a large party and it was uncomfortable.

Food is great and waitress was great. But girl who brought out good was screaming our orders. Extremely annoying. Wasn t even loud inside the building.

Great wait staff and little to no wait time. Fried cheese bites are a MUST! We ll be back

Always a favorite when we are in town. Gator bites and rib baskets are a must!

Food was good and the drinks were good. Our waitress was very nice. The only problem we had was with the parking staff. As we were walking in a grown man decided it was a good idea to make fun of our 9 year old daughter for sucking her thumb and then asking her where her blanket was. Reguardless of rather or not a child should still be sucking their thimb, a grown man shouldn't be making fun of them. We told the waitress but unfortunately when we left he was still out there. Obviously the restaurant is a business that cares only about the money they make and not at all about this customers. Had I been the manager I would of sent him home for the day. We won't be returning.

Great place to enjoy a drink and a bite to eat right on the beach. Staff is very nice and even though youre in a big tourist area they make you feel at home.

Stopped along the road trip...great food great views

Amazing food. Great service. A little crowded but if you go between 12 o'clock to 3 o'clock it's not to busy and you should get seated and taken care of within 30 min.

Everything was ok except for the food. It was cold and sucked.

Beautiful view, delicious fish and drinks. Skip the ribs, they are not all that great.

The best part of Pineapple Willys is the atmosphere. They have a great waiting area (which we had an hour wait), and were able to go ahead and order drinks (not just alcoholic, fountain drinks can be ordered there) and appetizers. Super quick service on the apps in the waiting area and made waiting a little easier. By the time we got to our table, we weren't as hungry because of the apps, but the main food was ok. We all got seafood and it was ok, not the greatest, but atmosphere was awesome. Apparently their ribs are their specialty but we didnt try those.

This place is not good!! 30 minute wait for freezer food, I ordered pop corn shrimp that I m convinced they bought from the freezer section of Walmart. Will not return!!

Service was fast and excellent. Drinks were cold, appetizer came out in less than 5 minutes. Food came out 5 minutes after that. Ribs were fall off the bone with plenty of meat. We sat outside and it was very nice and comfortable.

Great food, live bands play regularly, awesome view.

This place is a super busy spot on the beach in PCB. The outside and the bar have great atmosphere but the restaurant is kinda dull and bare. The food was good but not quite worth the prices of $25 to $30 a plate. We tried the shrimp and grits (good but Margaritaville is better) and the Jambalaya...excellent smoky flavor. Both of these dishes are excluded from dinner sides and the shrimp and grits was not that filling. I will say though that the butter pecan pie is incredible!! The drinks were very reasonably priced with even cheaper souvenir cup refill options. We will come back for dessert and drinks.

Yummy. Went here four times now I think, we always come to this restaurant every time we come to Panama city Beach. I have tried chicken tenders, shrimps, pulled pork sandwich, and blt sandwich. It is so yummy. We also had alligator bites as appetizers and it is heaven!! Pictured is alligator bites
