Pineapple Willy's Reviews

Service was awesome waitress was cool food came out in literally 5min. Best place ever

Went here for my birthday dinner! We enjoyed drinks and had a hour wait, but it was well worth it.

I got the bbq ribs and my wife got the Mahi Mahi basket

Food was ok atmosphere was fun but parking is horrible and too many drunks around kids

Great food, great service, friendly people. Best place on PCB

I dont do seafood so it would be nice to have different choices

Great good awesome view great service good prices Definetly recommend

Over rated and over priced. I did not like my salad. The view is beautiful, but that's about it.

Unfortunately, the kid working your parking lot tonight July 8th 2020 @ 6:20pm is a VERY RUDE immature child who can't speak to patrons in a kind manner. He also can't answer questions in regards to parking and instead he stated "pick a better time to come". Therefore I will NEVER return again! Find courteous employees as food is only so good!

First and last time I will eat here. Our party of 4 all ate different things and none of it was good. My sisters prime rib was awful! We threw away more than we ate.

Love this place! Eat ON the beach. Wait is long but food is delicious. Something for everyone.

I made it a point to take my daughter here for her 16th birthday dinner. We have never been to Pineapple Willy's before. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted and sat inside. We had a server by the name of Linda, such a sweet lady, very attentive and helpful beings we had never been there before. She made us feel like regulars there. Great experience!

Super excited about this place. Food and staff were so great. Loved it and definitely will be back one day

Great ambiance. Good food. Strong but pricey cocktails.

Very great place to go have a nice Drink or something to eat

Highlight of our trip. My wife insisted on going and I was hesitant, but great experience. Food and drinks were great. View was great. The best part, the service was about as good as service gets. I wish I could remember the waitress' name because she deserves a shout out.

This place is so lit because it's right on the beach

I went hear with my daughter and grandkids. It was definitely nice out on the patio but we didn't walk down by the beach. They still had plenty of storm damage so we couldn't go on the extended deck. The food was pretty decent as well. I'll definitely check them out again.

Best spot in PCB! The staff is friendly, food is delicious & they have indoor and outdoor seating available. I would HIGHLY recommend over the other beach restaurants.

This place has really went downhill. Only reason it gets 2 stars is because there's a place you can have drinks and an appetizer while you wait on your table.

The 1.5 hour wait was worth it!! Such a great place! With great good.

Love this place grate food good service it's a mist eat at place when I come here

Nice atmosphere and nice people. Meals between $12-28 But long was only draw back

Easy eating on a boardwalk style dining. Great drinks. Right on the Sandy Beach with ocean view.

It was great had a great time had a great time enjoyed it and the food and the waitress or very good

Food was ok, atmosphere was fun, staff were friendly.

I got the ribs, they were out of this world delicious, great service, great atmosphere, our waitress was awesome too many thumbs up for Pineapple Willys in Panama city Beach.

The view was pretty good if you didn't mind looking past the other 400 people around you. This was super crowded, loud, and felt busy. It felt like the staff was trying to churn tables and was rushing us. The food was mediocre at best, and VERY expensive. This is the typical tourist trap restaurant, all sizzle and no steak...or seafood. Whatever, you get the point. It was underwhelming.

Its okay. I've had better. However, a great location.

It was nice visiting, but there were so many people and no place to or get comfortable near the restaurant. Go earlier.

It's OK. Drinks are refillable. Friendly staff. Fish and chips gave me a bit of stomach ache.

Food was good, atmosphere was very cozy,all in all was a great experience

Our server Rebekah was Amazing .Great food and tropical drinks along with great customer service! Thanks Rebekah for the awesome customer service..

Long wait, but great food. Try the blue raspberry daquiri while you are there

Blake is a friendly and experienced waiter that takes the extra step. Great hire. Appreciated the warm welcome to PCB

Long wait, over priced and the ribs were dryer then beef jerky. Maybe I missed something when they said world famous ribs. I guess they meant world famous for sucking. I think a mcrib would have been better. I wasted almost 100 bucks for a 20 dollar meal at best. The drinks are good and fairly priced. I will not return for food but may for drinks.

Amazing food! I wish they wouldn't use so many non reusable items being on the beach though.

To me it's my favorite place to eat at PCB
The food is the best. They have over 13 (that what I counted) large screen TV's . The place is larger. Make sure your party is all there or they want sit you. Best pineapple on the beach. Make sure you get a T-shirt as this is the most famous pineapple. Nachos are great.

Everytime we've been it has been great food with a great time. Plus getting to sit right at the end of the pier made it that much better with the views of the waves.

Just another beach restaurant. not bad but not special either. Prices were as expected. Staff was exceptional. Food was meh..

Great food and a great beach view right from the restaurant .

Our group "Cast Iron RC" had a great time, Great food and Great service!

Differences aside, we all love good sea food and this place isn t it. Especially for the price you pay. Not worth it.

Good food. Fun atmosphere. Fireworks on the 4th of July. Parking lot was full but additional lots up the street somewhere...I never found it.

Grouper with crawfish Joulee. Fantastic! Long wait to get table , get over it you're on the beach in July Once you receive table 15 minutes your food is on the table

Waited forever. Got seated and waited forever. After 1 1/2 hour. We left. No food.

Short wait for lunch. Great food. Great drinks. Great service. What a great place to go!

Excellent reseved food very fast. Tasty piniacolatas

Pineapple Willy's is always a fun choice for a PCB family vacation! The food is good! The atmosphere is fun & service is pretty great! I recommend sitting outside on the covered pier. The Oceanview is beautiful! The gift shop is very neat!

Food recommendations here:

Fried alligator appetizer is fantastic! The breading is prefect, very delicious.

Fried pickle appetizer was a bit disappointing for me. I was not a fan of the batter.

Fried grouper basket is very good!
Popcorn shrimp basket is good!

Fried Mahi is better than the grilled here. The grilled mahi was a bit dried out and lacking in flavor. (This is coming from a grilled/blackened seafood person! I am not typically a fan of fried.)

I recommend getting a side of pineapple salsa with any grilled item. It pairs very nicely and adds great flavor!

Caribbean Salad is good but not like super amazing. The poppyseed dressing was not my favorite. I also wouldn't recommend their raspberry vinaigrette, it tastes very watered down.

Overall Pineapple Willy's is a fun, solid choice. My family typically eats here every year on our vacation.

However I would say not to expect the most amazing seafood out there. I feel that many of their menu items lack in the flavor department. Keep in mind I personally LOVE food with a bit of depth and intricacy. If you have a pallet for flavor like I do, I would highly recommend trying Runaway Island.

Happy eats everyone! As always don't forget to tip!

** Sorry I forgot to take pictures **

Food was ok at best. Your paying for the atmosphere and beach access. Live band was cool, my kids enjoyed it while we waited to be seated(1 1/2 hours) but you can't hear or see from the dining tables. Drinks will run your bill through the roof! Most seafood they sell is fried! Watch your cholesterol! Gator bites were good.

Very good. We went with a group of 8 people at prime time on a Saturday night. We were seated in less than 30 minutes with a great ocean view. The meals were good. The service was great. Susan was our waitress. She was very friendly. The price was what one would expect for seafood and ribs with an ocean view, but not super high. I would recommend.

Right in the beach, it has a good view of ocean and the beach from the restaurant.

Love sitting by the ocean enjoying the amazing food! The mahi mahi is the best

I really enjoyed this restaurant experience. The restaurant was extremely packed when we went, but they had an area where you could order drinks while you wait. We sat in the deck area by the beach for dinner. Our waitress was extremely nice and informative. If she didn't have the answer she made sure she got our question answered by someone. The food was great, drinks were great, and so was the scenery. Definitely recommend Pineapple Willy's.

Got the red fish no flavor had to sauce it down the frys were cold a bit pricey but the the server was very good

Amazing ribs and drinks . The service is always wonderful

Great staff fun atmosphere. Restaurant inside was really cold in temperature bring a sweatshirt.
