Nice views from this traditional seafood restaurant which is located under the bridge in a marina. The vibe is a little upscale, but not too fancy. The menu was what you'd expect, lots of seafood dishes with a few non seafood options. Entrée's are priced in the $20-$30 range and come with a basic salad starter and two vegetable sides.

First opened in 1977 as a small neighborhood pub in a shopping center. In 1982 McGuire's moves to its current location; Pensacola's original 1927 Old Firehouse. Inside the pub you'll find a turn-of-the-century, New York Irish Saloon themed 615-seat restaurant. I also love the atmosphere here with the $1 bills in the ceiling and memorabilia's, never had a bad experience here and servers are always friendly and top notch. Try their 18 cent soup!
