If it ain't beer it ain't breakfast. Service great with cold beer and drinks. If you're looking for polished floors and gold toilets you are in the wrong place. It's old school Florida the way it should be. read more

If you're anywhere near Panama City Beach and want the real beach bar experience, you've got to check out The Old Beach Bar. This place is exactly what a beach bar should be -- relaxed, fun, and full of good people. No fancy pretenses, no overpriced cocktails... just cold drinks, great music, and that perfect salty-air vibe. The staff is awesome -- super friendly, fast, and they treat you like a regular even if it's your first time there. The crowd is the same way too. Everyone is laid back and just there to have a good time. Best part? Dive bar prices right on the beach, which is almost impossible to find anymore. If you like places with character, good people, and cold drinks without breaking the bank, this spot absolutely delivers. One of those rare bars where you come for one drink... and end up staying all night. Highly recommend. read more

Great place to hang out and have a few cold ones or a few drinks. They always have different music venues there and some karaoke going on. The crew there are cool and you'll feel comfortable if You're there for the first time. Kick back atmosphere and they have outside party areA too !! read more

Just a cool dive bar across the street from the gulf. Bartender was very nice as were the people in there. They don`t have a kitchen so eat before or after you go there. read more

This place is racist. We (2 Mexicans and a black man) sensed a bad vibes and then as we walk in everyone was looking at us, and then we got ID to go to the BATHROOM, then when they realized we were over 21 they refused us drinks said we were "being rude" and "had an attitude" mind u we haven't drank or spoken to any other guest. They said they have the right to refuse (valid),,, but We called multiple times after to try and understand what we did wrong/ to upset them and they declined our calls. When they finally answered they said our girl best friend was being rude- we have video proof of the encounter if yall want to see- she just asked a question. Do not go here if ur POC!!!! We have videos of everything... read more

No food service. Had to order next door at pho 77. Pool tables in better shape than the last time I was here. Service is friendly

Great place for good White Bikers to grab some grub. Food and service were EXCELLENT!!! They had a great band there the night I stopped in, but I don't know what their name was. Their prices were descent and that's rare in that area. Some drunk black guy named Robert and his two drunk Mexican friends were big timed stoned came in looking for trouble, but were quickly told to leave the joint or face some painful retribution. They left with their tails between their legs. I usually go through the area about once or twice a month, and you can bet your bottom dollar that me and my bros will be stopping in every time we pass through. Keep up the good work. read more

Everything starting with manager. Does not know how to speak kindly to customers. Spoke to five ladies like we were from a red neck country. We were ask to leave because two had a drink. No kindness like finish your drink outside and then come on in. Made us feel like we did something wrong but we didn't know the rules. Very rude people (locals) staring like we were gonna take over the place. Ha! Not a chance. It's a dump. No food!! We have been here two years ago and had a wonderful time hanging with locals.....this time... not!! I hope they close for good. They don't deserve paying cash customers the way we were treated. read more

Absolutely ridiculous and terrible staff. Will never go back here after the way we were treated tonight. Never have been treated so rudely and it was completely unwarranted. If the "security" guy was more worried about doing his job at the door instead of hanging out on the patio with customers, things might run a little more smoothly here. read more

Great food. Booze and service! Shannon is my favorite bartender. Can you say Long Island Ice Tea?

Do not recommend this bar. Very unprofessional and the bartender was extremely disrespectful. Won't be back.

Worst experience ever. Came in with some friends and are immediately yelled at by the bartender to give our IDs since we are in our mid 20s. Understandably, we hand them over. She then yells loud enough for the entire bar to hear that one of them is expired and tells us all to leave. When we correct her that she read it wrong she starts crying and asks us to leave anyways. Was very obvious she was drunk herself. Don't bother coming here. read more

We stopped here because it looked like a great place to be- and we were right. Very friendly, great service and just a all around fun place to be. We had THE BEST Bloody Mary ever. Tell Shannon Hi!!! She was also an exceptional bartender read more

JaJa, $4.00 for a bottle of beer. We will not be back. No coolers, beers on ice in igloo coolers. A total dump. We love dive bars but this place does not even meet that rating. The beer was cold and great people. read more

If you're looking for a dirty, dive bar, this is it. Don't come bare foot. You'll be able to get in without shoes, but you'll never get the black off your feet. The bartenders are unapologetically frank and put up with zero crap. Basically, it's a taste of old Florida conveniently located on 30a. read more

Best bar on the beach! Friendly bartenders and patrons! Highly recommend! Breathtaking sunsets with unobstructed views of the gulf! Beer and liquor served, karaoke on select nights, live music on the weekends, pool tables, and great patio area! read more

As much as I wanted to fall in love with this potential honey hole, the bartender created a repulsive atmosphere. I will not be returning.

Horrible service is an understatement. This was the WORST experience at a bar I have ever had. Bartenders portrayed a clear lack of control over the patrons and showed evident signs of intoxication. Tables were filthy, very smoky environment, and a strange smell in the place as well. If you are looking for a fantastic fun filled environment to enjoy yourself, I would recommend driving right past the Old Beach Bar... read more

This was by far the worst experience I have ever had. While the place is a dump, the beer is room temp, and the smell is agriegous that is not what makes this place terrible. The bartender (who must have been intoxicated) could not clearly read an ID. Once proving to them that the license is valid we were met with hostility as we were attempting to spend our hard earned dollar on a room temperature beer. The drunk bartender then proceeded to encourage a fight amongst a man at the bar with us. Once we deescalated the situation we left leaving a tip that was not deserved. We then had a great time at the new beach bar which is "Whiskeys." read more

While visiting the area we stopped in. Bartender was super friendly as were the locals.

Still a fun place for great music and an enjoyable evening. Friendly people and staff. Some of the best times I've had on PCB since moving to the region in 2006. read more

I was there 2 weeks ago for vacation and i was there every evening. I won't forget those people i met. Everyone knows each other like a family. I already miss. read more

Beach House is an awesome local bar!! Live music, Fantastic bar tender Brandy? I think....... friendly comfortable atmosphere! read more

The Old Beach Bar - two men on stage - Bars Near Me - P C Beach, Florida

Stopped here on a Tuesday afternoon looking for a chill place to grab a beer on the way home from a nice Harley ride. We found what we were looking for. First I should mention that this is a biker bar for sure. They have more bike parking than parking for vehicles. There two things that I love to see stocked at a bar... Titto's vodka and Bud Select 55. Beach house has both. Score! Of all the places I've visited in PCB this was the first time I found both of my favorites in one bar. The bartender (I believe Brenda was her name) Mentioned that they had just stared having biker nights on Wednesdays. So... of course we went back the next night to check it out. They had a bar outside and fire going. Inside they had a fantastic band playing on the stage. Each time you purchase a beer you get a ticket that gives you a chance to win prizes. It was a little chilly that night so I spent most of my time outside by the fire talking to locals. It was a great night. read more

You can see the ocean across the road from the bar, even at night. It sure is smokey, all the clothes hit the washer as soon as we got home. It's dark, fairly small and full of mostly locals. No food. Pool tables and music. One of the few bars on the west end and the last before our crib. Similar to our Edgefield in Nashville and yes Jason Aldean does stop by quite often. read more

Not for me. Very smokey and they just have alcohol there. Need some fresh air for sure. Has several pool tables so that was nice. Has a nice outside area so that is a plus as well. read more

Great bar on the west end of the beach, full bar, great hang out, mostly locals, they do not serve food, well they sell chips n peanuts. They have live entertainment and they open early. The view is great. There's a lake with a deck out back and a great view of the gulf from the bar. Love this place. read more

The Old Beach Bar - Lake in the back, gulf in the front. - Bars Near Me - P C Beach, Florida

It's a complete dive bar right by the beach. Don't have high expectations. It is smoky and there is usually a loud live band playing. It is an odd mixture of bikers, golfers, vacationers and locals. If the smoke gets to you, there's a large outdoor porch with a firepit. The drinks are strong. Beer selection is limited and American. So if you are looking for refinement, go elsewhere. But if you want the true West End experience, this is the place. read more

This is a a bar from the old school "Panama City Beach"And I mean In the best way. I don't want to ruin it by saying too much, and I hope it doesn't become "too" popular , but genuinely friendly bartender that keeps the jukebox going with tunes you want to hear, reasonably priced beer, mostly local crowd that made me feel welcome to play pool with them and hang out, and I had never been in before. Think the old " Seahorse", or the old "Beach Bar" or other old funky bars at the beach that you thought were gone. If you know how to act, this place is "Cool" . I think it's because it's in that border area between Pier Park and Rosemary Beach. No food, but if they had raw oysters I would have thought "I had died and... " , well you get it. Yes, they smoke inside. Get over it, or don't go. I had a grand time and it was a Tuesday night. Live music weekends, and an open to all jam session on Sundays. Check it out, or better yet , don't. read more

We absolutely love this place! The atmosphere is awesome and the food is great! Family friendly!! Ask for Emilee, she is fantastic!
