Nancy's is a great hidden gem because not only can you eat outside on their patio, or inside in their cafe, but they also have a drive up window! This is a great treat when you need some home-cooking. Try the tropical home-made cookies!

McGuire's is a staple in Pensacola, one of "The Spots" you need to have on your list of restaurants to try. Perfect for large groups, dates, or the single scene, there is live music throughout the week, and daily specials that are mouth-watering. The steaks and burgers are well-known to be the best on the Gulf Coast, but don't leave without trying the 18cent bean soup and putting a $1 bill up on the wall - it's tradition!

This beautiful cafe is just minutes from the Bungalow and the perfect in-town lunch spot. If you like bread pudding, treat yourself to the 3 types Jo's offers!
