Florida is known for its warm climate, so it's a great destination to visit year-round.
However, the best time to visit Florida is during the winter months, from December to April, when the weather is cooler and dry.
Pensacola is a popular city in the westernmost part of the Florida panhandle. It is the county seat of Escambia County, Florida.
The cute coastal city is right on the Gulf of Mexico. Not only are there beautiful beaches, great food, the city center is historic and has tons of beautiful architecture.

Brother Fox Sister Hen

This is a newer spot in Downtown Pensacola. The menu offers a tapas style experience. It doesn't stop with the food though... there's a speakeasy around back! You won't want to miss it.

Seville Quarter

Entering this bar feels like you're taking a step into New Orleans. A great spot to see where the Pensacola people hangout. On the weekends it does get a bit busier so prepare for that!
