Pineapple Willy's Reviews

Great place to eat, great customer service, and friendly atmosphere. Love the seafood I ordered. Try it you'll be glad you did.

Great experience and nice view, sandwich was great Mahi Mahi and bacon

Beach hangout atmosphere. Food was good. Prices were not to bad. Right on the beach .

Wings (especially the pineapple Terryaki), fried pickles, mahi BLT, ribs, kids fish. Everything was as ordered. And tasted phenomenal. Service was fantastic, Toni especially, on the inside where the bar is. Born to serve id say. She has a wonderful personality! Venue is clean, new, and never received good so fast

Just get here before 10 and you can order. Lol (closed early)

Was so excited to eat here because my kids have never eaten here before, I had them all pumped up for a great experience, alot of fun and awesome food. However it was completely opposite the long wait in the heat minus the inside with no air conditioning and the food that was horrible, over priced and the waitress that was absolutely rude, My kids were very upset and asked for McDonald s. I will never ever be going back here again. So many good memories i have had there but this has been by far the worst experience our whole trip!

Overpriced and needs more of a variety. We love the t-shirts though.

Very good food and some great views of the sunset on the Gulf

Service and food were great. We were met with starting in the parking lot. Wait was about 20 mins. I got the bucket of ribs witch were fall off the bone with a perfect bark. The daughter had the mahi-mahi BLT and it was excellent. Everyone else got the mahi-mahi basket which was fried golden brown and was great.

If down that way please go bye.the food was great. And waiter was nice too

Love this place good food and good atmosphere as well. I love their shirts too!!

Well worth the wait. About an hour wait but when by with virgin daiquiris, gift shop and laughs. Food was cooked perfectly and amazing salads. Service was on point and we never went without a drink.

Good food and good service. Unfortunately, a long wait.

We had Jambalaya, and grilled shrimp. The service was great, and so was the food

Nice outdoor seating and decent food. Server was great... Skinny, tatted guy who does magic tricks for the kids.

Love the location and "THE RIBS". We drive over 2 hours just to come eat here.

My favorite place to grab an Adult Beverage and enjoy the place and the beach.

Had the mahi mahi basket and fries...delicious! Oh and the best virgin strawberry daiquiri I think I've ever had!!!

Like many buildings around PCB, Pineapple Willie's took a hit and sustained damage by Hurricane Michael. They are recovering well! We are glad to have stopped by for lunch. We had great cheese curds, awesome gulf shrimp, and a server who is glad to be there and it shows.

We're in town for the week and finally on our 3rd try,we got in without a huge wait.Awesome lunch.The big bucket of ribs won me over

Love this place been going here since 1984. Very nice people here even the policeman monitoring at front offered his seat to me when there seem to be no place to sit and wait for a table. This was because I had a bad foot and knee bothering me that evening and could barely walk.. So kind!

Long line ,Decent food, decent service overall not bad ........

Food is good, but definitely pricy. The To Go drinks are awesome.

Good service although it is somewhat expensive and not good value for money. They only sell fame.

Very clean and neat, staff was very friendly and accommodating, especially Jordan, our waiter. We had a wonderful meal and drinks were wonderful. ATTENTION: in the month of March in Panama Beach, even on a private beach, you will be arrested if you take " to go drinks"onto the beach. All other months are fine but not March. This is a local law and nothing to do with Pineapple Willie's and they have signs warning you!

As a local I had long avoided this place...sorry I did! I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food. I had the willy philly and I my wife had a ruben. They were both very good. Service was good too. Thanks for maintaining a quality product here in PCB!

Nathan our server went above and beyond on our first visit that we decided to go back the next night for dinner and asked for him again.

Nice place, service was quick and friendly. Got a ceasar salad that was huge with a delicious sauce and an awesome Reuben sandwich which I was surprised to see on the menu. Nice view of the gulf if you decide to eat outside on the pier. Next time I'm in Panama City Beach I'll hit it again.

Best service, best food and friendliest staff in PCB! DON'T WASTE MONEY ELSEWHERE!

The Seafood Platter was very large, sufficient for my wife, daughter and me to share. It's a lot of fried seafood, with plenty of variety. Very tasty.

It's a tourist place for sure and being a local I almost never go here, but it exceeded all my expectations and I can see why it is a favorite amongst tourists.

Pineapple Willy's is the same every time you go. Awesome food, amazing scenery, wonderful staff. They make you feel special every time. No matter how busy they might be. I've never had to wait more than twenty minutes even in busy summer time.

Fun times. She took a little while to get back to us, but all around a good time

Wasn't a terrible place to eat, but also wasn't great for the price. More like a bar to hang and drink. The set up is nice and they have an area with a full view of the beach.

Super helpful staff, nice waiting areas, and once we sat at our table, our food came in about 10 minutes or less (2 people). It was the fastest I've ever had food brought to the table while at the beach. Great experience!

Service excellent, atmosphere pleasant, average bar food, overpriced but beach location and parking great.

If you are hungry don t go to this place. It s expensive for the amount of food you get. Save your money and go somewhere else.

Awesome service, great food. We had the 1LB rib dinner and Mahi Mahi BLT. Definitely did not disappoint!

Here during off season. No wait! Amazing food! Dog friendly... and the drinks are on point! Laura was a great waitress and made our experience that much better.

We are on day 1 and we will most likely go back before we leave.

This is a "got to stop there, buy the T-shirt beach front place." They have improved the menu. Try the tuna dip. The onion rings are good and come stacked. The grouper tacos are great blackened. This place is kid friendly. They are rebuilding the pier so to sit outside (and you will want to sit outside) you will be sitting to the right of the old pier structure. The high top tables will keep you out of the sun (for two).

I have been eating here for almost 30 years. Get the ribs you will love them. Service is always first rate. Sometimes there is a long wait but is worth it.

It was good! All got new shirts : ) And the food was fine, just wasn't made to order.... our food came out less than 10 minutes after giving it to our server. Which the kids really didn't mind one bit, and tbh really makes a lot of sense considering all the circumstances and current predicaments. Had to wait in line to go into the gift shop.. only seated people at every other table. The pineapple slaw is delicious! And my littlest 2 loved their ribs!

Kind of pricey but no more than the other big tourist attraction restaurants earing on the pier is nice . Alcohol is pretty exspensive. The food was good and came out fast

The service and food were great! And I'm very happy that COVID-19 safety guidelines were followed very well.

Amazing ribs and atmosphere beach views and wow penocolada!

Ordered the mahi mahi fish n chips basket with tartar sauce. The breaded fish strips was cooked with just the right amount of oil and was nice and flaky. Cost only $16-17 including 20% tip. The chips (fries) were not overly salted and both tasted better dipped in tartar sauce.

This is such a fun place to spend an afternoon or for football in the fall! Really great drink specials and great eats!

Cool staple on the beach with fun pier drinks. Onion rings were good

My favorite restaurant in PCB. My kids always make a request to stop by when we are in town.

If you're in Panama City Beach you can't not go to Pineapple Willy's. Their Seafood Platter is huge if you're in the mood to eat for two all by yourself or get you some ribs... Oh man the ribs.. literally fall off the bone! If you're on the beach and fancy a frosty beverage don't fret, you can literally come in off the beach and get cool. There's always a laid back vibe and good music to listen to. Pineapple Willy's is THE spot to go to while in Panama City

Good food and the young man waiting on us did a great job

Beautiful view of the gulf...live entertainment nightly, food was average sitting accommodations were serene due to the view... seagulls plentiful. I will visit again.

Beautiful view! Awesome drinks! Fabulous service! Very relaxed and fun! A must if you're in Panama City!!!

After we ordered and ate our server told us they were only accepting cash, and so I had to use the ATM to pay for their overpriced food

Our waitress was Lindsay. We had a group of 7 adults, 4 kids, and she kept up with all of us!! Excellent service by her, and amazing appetizers and entrees. The daiquiris/mixed drinks were amazing (I suggest the Pineapple Willy drink). I had the seafood platter, and it was cooked to perfection. Fried oysters that are GOOD are hard to come by, but they literally cooked these to perfection. Very pleased with our visit. And like I said, our waitress Lindsay accomadated to our every need!

What a wonderful place to come and enjoy the beautiful beach and eat some delicious food. Pineapple Willy s was recommended by our condo agent and we arrived to find a lengthy wait. Had some drinks while waiting and sat inside in AC. Had a wonderful waitress named Susan. She recommended the BBQ ribs and the daily catch of grouper. They were both phenomenal. I highly recommend the ribs, daily catch, 190 drink, and Susan as your waitress! We had our food and drink in less than 10 minutes, maybe even less. Thank you for the wonderful experience. We will be back next year.

Great customer service. Good food. Great views. Awesome Pina coladas.

Fast service, good hosting, good size food serving, family ambient and affordable!!! We were satisfied! !!!

Had a wonderful experience at PW's, seemed everyone on the beach had the same idea for lunch, and I was apprehensive when the staff said 40 min wait, 20 min and my family of 3 were seated, and enjoying cold drinks and appetizer, entrees came perfectly seasoned , fresh, hot, and plentiful, Waitress was very attentative to our request, Its a must to eat here while visiting PCB

Omg the food was good hoy wings the view is amazing and every day i wish i could eat

Great food, get the 1 lb bucket of ribs comes with a sand castle bucket. We had a waiter named Michael (mike) and he was so good compared to other servers we had! Highly recommend

The view is Amazing and you can watch the sunset while eating grouper or a bucket of ribs and will be greeted by amazing employees

Friends built it up so was excited to go. I was very disappointed. I have gotten better at Captain Ds for much less money. The tables with the built in seats were not very comfortable. I guess I was expecting a more upscale place and experience.

AWESOME LOCATION - 1 star rating was for the food - ordered the rib bucket: hard to find ribs as good as Michelbob s in Naples, FL! Mediocre ribs here (btw, they charge $1 for extra sauce - and $1.50 to add fries to your $25 rib meal that came with 7-8 ribs) - toast was stale, slaw and beans were comparable to grocery store deli food - we enjoyed the fries. The $5 small can of beer was good (but overpriced). Too many other places to eat for us to recommend Pineapple Willy s.

FANTASTIC SERVICE GREAT DRINKS GREAT FOOD . LOVE THE ATMOSPHERE

The atmosphere and furniture really makes the the place pop

It sure isn't the food, it's the bar atmosphere with live music.

The ribs are to die for delicious a little pricey but the food is fantastic and of course the view is beautiful
