BLT. Very good.
Ryan S.

Native Cafe is the best breakfast spot at Pensacola Beach. My wife and I have been coming for years. My go-to is the BLT but they have a lot of great menu items.

Fish Tacos!! SOOO GOOD
Brooke W.

We sat at the bar and the service was great. We were in from out of town and our bartender gave us some great sugessions of places to go and to eat at. I got the fish tacos and my girl got the classic benny. Both were delicious and good portions. I got an espresso martini no sugar add burbom cream amd it was fantastic. Their menu serves both breakfast and lunch all day. They also have local art for sale. They make their own hot sauce, and you know that makes me happy! Next time we are i. town this will be our breakfast joint!

Interior of restaurant
Diana W.

Heard about this brunch place from a local. It is unassuming on the outside, but very beachy on the inside with local art . Good breakfast at a decent price. Our waitress was great, and the service was fast. You can also order a latte/espresso drink with your breakfast.

White Sausage Gravy
Heather S.

Everyone enjoyed the vibe in this place. So eclectic and artsy. Staff totally awesome. Very clean and well run! Didn't like the biscuits and gravy BUT I tried some of what the kiddos ordered & I'll definitely get the p-cakes or French toast next time!

I had the loaded French toast I think it was with the mixed berries and cream cheese and it taste so amazing! The service was amazing I was served by a fantastic lady named Lorin. It was clean nice music playing in the background and not to loud. Wait time wasn't that long sat down as soon as I stepped in will be back! AMZI

Caramel latte with oat milk
Leigh S.

I had the caramel latte with oat milk and crab cakes Benedict with cheese grits. Absolutely amazing!!!!! Service was great, latte was perfection and the Benedict was delicious! The English muffin was toasted to perfection (normally I do not eat the bread)! It was a happy plate!

Mahi tacos
Robby H.

This is a fun and lively place that is a little bit touristy but of course it's Pensacola Beach / Gulf Breeze. I sat at the bar and the waitress (Mindy) was attentive and helpful. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the bright, hand painted pictures from the area on the wall while I ate my Mahi tacos which were felt and hit the spot for lunch. I finished that off with a cold brewed Spicy Mexican chocolate coffee and hung out a while. Thanks Native Cafe!

Restrooms right next to our table.
Don M.

Food is very good and fresh. Service was good. We visited twice while we were in town and it was good both times. We will definitely be back. The only issue I had was that they sat us at a table that was 5 feet from the restroom doors. Constant flow of people going in and out of two restrooms right next to your table is not very appetizing. That's the only reason I did not give 5 stars.

LOVE Florida Pink & Blue "Native Cafe"

Love Love Love Native Cafe Cheeseburgers! Moi Cheeseburgers in Paradise! OuiOui! Native Cafe makes a great All American burger! Yum Yum YUM! :)' A neat little brekkie/lunch place out on the island that is only open till 2pm. They also make a great ice coffee ya! :)) We haven't tried their brekkie yet but it looks awesome & they do make excellent coffee here :)' The Cheeseburgers are our go to, they offer several types of cheese and come with a toasted bun and all the fixings. You can add bacon or grilled jalapeños. Moi has had the Cheeseburger three different ways and it's just fabulous every time. You get your choice of sides, we go with the fruit cup as it carries better to the beach! (French fries are available as a side) Cheeseburgers in Paradise! OuiOui. Winners Circle! Queen of Pirate'cola approved! Will return :)'

Any gluten free options yet like pancakes or French toast?

I am totally sure, but i would say probably not.

Is there brunch?? How long does it go to?🤔

They have a breakfast and lunch menu. So get there early for breakfast. The wait is worth it. Try the eggs Benedict!

Every time we go to Pensacola, this is dinner one of the nights. They have very good drinks and…read morefood. The atmosphere is casual but nice and they have a very nice bar. We like to sit at the oyster bar and talk to the shocker. Donald was our guy and service was great. I always recommend this place.​

5/10/2026: Grand Marlin is top-notch!…read more We had an incredible experience here on May 10th. Our server, Brittany, gave excellent service and was incredibly accommodating. Since the three of us in our group aren't big eaters, we asked to split a portion of everything we ordered, and she didn't blink an eye. We started with the BBQ shrimp, which was fantastic! It's not a heavy, traditional BBQ flavor--it's more of a rich, New Orleans-style sauce. With six shrimp total, it was perfect for splitting, especially with the delicious bread served alongside it to soak up that amazing sauce. Nom!! Two of us split the wedge salad, and Brittany happily accommodated our special request for ranch instead of blue cheese. Our other friend had the kale salad and thoroughly enjoyed it. For the main course, the three of us split the filet mignon, which came with a dollop of mashed potatoes. The char on the steak was absolutely fabulous, and the potatoes paired with it perfectly! The restaurant is fairly dark and can get a bit noisy on busy nights, but we enjoyed our time immensely. Grand Marlin has private rooms and is easily the most high-end restaurant on Pensacola Beach. Our total was $178.00 before tip, which is well worth it. The attire ranges anywhere from dressy to beach casual, they have several great seating options for special occasions, and there's even a gift shop with some great finds. For anyone who remembers, this used to be the Boy on a Dolphin years ago. As an honorary Pensacolian since 1975, I consider myself a bit of an expert on all things Pensacola Beach--and you won't be disappointed here! Pro tip: Get a group photo by the bay before leaving. Even at night, it shows off those perfect Pensacola views.

"Goods" was our server & bartender, and he was very knowledgeable of the menu and offered us the best choices for our wants. he was very attentive & stayed on top of water refills as well! it might have been around 3-4pm when we were there and it was quiet, music was not too loud or over powering. the table we were seated at was inside, but the large windows were open, allowing all the crisp breeze to come in and a beautiful view of the water right there!! it was so gorgeous! we started with the bang-bang shrimp appetizer which was PHENOMENAL!! the portion sizes were great and left us with extra! perfect mix of spicy & sweet, and perfect crunchy. my fiancé got a bushwacker & i had some kind of watermelon drink and both were top notch. for our entrees, i had a blackened chicken caesar wrap & my fiancé got the blackened mahi-mahi tacos. both were so good i didn't get any pics of them lol. overall, our experience was truly perfect for a laidback afternoon dinner :) we can't wait to come back again!

We stopped on a Sunday - late afternoon - for a light late lunch. Place was less than half full,…read morebut once seated, nobody came to offer drinks...nothing. I had to ask the host to find someone after waiting 15 minutes for someone to acknowledge us. Ordered the tuna poke nachos and a Harvest salad. Salad was large and tasty. Nachos were a large plate of chips with 15 pieces max of tiny cubes of tuna. That's AFTER taking the advice of our waitress to double the tuna. (Of course for an up-charge). We confirmed with her since it was so few pieces, and she said yes, 4 ounces of tuna. The sauces were tasty but so not worth the price tag. There were several large tables full of people around us and a live musician, so the noise level - on the outside patio even - was super loud. We had to yell to each other at our table. If you're looking for a party place on the beach, this seems like your place.
