Food is absolutely great! We have been here a few times and never disappointed. Even in the winter, the view is amazing and yet warm inside the restaurant. Would recommend the grilled grouper tacos and the loaded potato salad. The cheese curds and the cheesy jalapeno cigars are fabulous as an appetizer!!! 10/10. Also a great atmosphere, very laid back and chill. Right after eating, definitely spend the 1.00 and walk on the Pier. Best view in Navarre!!

Had such a great time visiting Navarre and I’m so happy we checked this place out! Makenna was our server and did an outstanding job. She recommended the blackened redfish and it did not disappoint! We will definitely be back next time we’re in town.

Great food next to gorgeous views of the beach. Madi was our server in the bar area and she was awesome. Super chill, friendly vibe. All our drinks and food came out pretty fast but she never rushed us. We had a mojito (kind of weak, not much mint flavor, could tell it wasnt mulched at the bottom of glass) and some kind of rum punch (good). We ordered the Chips and Queso, Fried Shrimp (8) basket with fries, and Adult Grilled Cheese with bacon (bomb!!!) & tator tots. All the food was great...hot and very flavorful! Definitely recommend!

What a view! What service! Food fantastic! We were seated along the railing towards the beach. Ahhhhhhhh. That view! We were greeted by Jessica. Lovely, attentive and helpful with our decisions. She was not wrong! We had short ribs tacos, Caesar salad with blackened red fish, red fish tacos, a giant burger, and chicken nuggets for the grandbaby. But the star of the show was loaded potato salad - highly recommended by Jessica. And worth every bite!!! And then, we took our Margarita’s , paid a dollar in the gift shop, and walked the beautiful pier!! Talk about a perfect afternoon! We will be back for sure!!

We had just arrived in town and arrived before our room was ready. We stopped by to grab a quick bite. We were blown away. They had a playground area for kids to play, good food, great drinks, and a perfect view. We enjoyed music and spent our evening laughing and listening to music. This is definitely a stop we will make every time! Our server was friendly and went out of her way to make sure we had what we needed and whatever we may want. The alligator bites were great! My daughter LOVED the grilled shrimp! I enjoyed the crab cakes and my husband tried to enjoy his fish tacos (but I kept grabbing them to sample ) we watched the sun set and enjoyed our first evening losing track of time and making new friends at the tables near us. Hands down an open and friendly atmosphere that we thought was the perfect start to our Thanksgiving trip.

I came in as an out of towner from a local recommendation and the location, food, experience was quality fun. The karaoke nights are lively and good spirited. My server Angie was very timely and personable. Good food, specials, service, and patrons of all kinds. I will return!

Windjammers on the Pier.- where your flip-flops are welcome, your drink’s always cold, and the sandwich that’ll haunt your dreams is a glorious beast called the Blackened Redfish Po’Boy. Windjammers ain’t some overpriced tourist trap with plastic forks and a Jimmy Buffett cover band phoning it in. Nah, this place is perched right on top of the Pier- where the breeze hits just right, the seagulls scream for fries, and every bite comes with a side of oceanfront glory. Alright, I’m kicking things off with the mini crab cakes. They roll out six of these little beauties, packed with lump and jumbo crab meat like they’re tryin’ to start a party in your mouth. They hit ’em with their own secret seafood spice mix, just enough to wake you up without slappin’ you silly, then toss a lemon wedge on the side and a cup of house-made citrus aioli that’s so good you’ll be lookin’ for stuff to dip in it long after the crab cakes are gone. Now let’s talk about that po’boy. We’re talkin’ a thick-cut, blackened-to-hell-and-back filet of redfish—the kind of fish that fought hard and tasted even better for it—laid across a proper piece of Gambino bread, straight outta New Orleans. Not that sad, soggy baguette nonsense. This is the real deal. Crispy outside, fluffy inside, big enough to double as a flotation device if you eat the whole one. They dress it up the traditional way: lettuce, tomato, pickles, and a big ol’ slather of remoulade that kicks just enough to make your eyebrows raise but won’t send you runnin’ for a glass of milk like a coward. Get the half if you’re tryin’ to keep your shirt buttoned. Get the whole if you’re livin’ right and don’t care who sees you unhinge your jaw like a snake to take that first bite. And the vibes? Immaculate. Open-air seating, Gulf breeze in your hair, maybe a little sunscreen in your drink, and the sound of waves crashin’ underneath while you eat like a damn legend. Folks fishin’ off the pier behind you, kids runnin’ wild, and a beer in your hand that tastes better purely because you’re not at work. So if you’re on Navarre Beach, do yourself a favor: get the Redfish Po’Boy. It’s a sandwich, it’s a spiritual experience, and it’s the reason Windjammers has locals comin’ back barefoot and blissed out, day after day.

Excellent place to enjoy a family dinner while listing to great music and taking in the salty air! Our server was named Andrew and he was a true delight! The food was amazing! Highly recommend the shrimp tacos! 5 stars for this dining experience!
