Champagne Sunday at Crabs
Sunday morning/afternoon at Crabs seems to be a local’s secret here on Pensacola Beach. Since I’ve only been a local for a little over a year, I feel very privileged to know about this. Every Sunday, in addition to the live steel drum band, they also have an excellent brunch menu (all plates are 9.99) along with an outstanding drink special: All-you-can-drink champagne for 3.95!!! Wow!
If you stop in, be sure to get to know your bartenders. Ken and Jill are some of the best bartenders on the island!
If you come to Crabs between 11 and 2 you’ll be sure to catch the locals in action:
Stop in on a Sunday and have a glass of champagne with your local Pensacola Beach Blogger! Just look for the goofy Yank with Canon 40D!
1 commentPink Pony Pub in Gulf Shores, AL
Only about 30 minutes away from Pensacola Beach, Gulf Shores is a fun change of scenery. After some shopping at the huge outlet mall in Foley, Alabama, we headed 10 miles south to Gulf Shores. Upon a recommendation we hit up the Pink Pony Pub on the beach for dinner and some drinks:
They have a back deck overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. We took the waitperson’s recommendation and ordered up some Nachos, one of their specialties. Very good, and VERY large. Come hungry!
The beaches here are similar to Pensacola Beach: wide, flat, and powdery-white sand:
Here’s something that I’m not used to seeing on Pensacola Beach though, an oil rig off the coast. Click to enlarge:
