The Break

A great local sports bar with great staff and prices – most people know each other but are very open to new people.

Great little beach bar. Nothing fancy, but cold beers and plenty of TVs for watching football on a Saturday afternoon to escape the beach for a few hours. Lots of locals to chat with and bartender kept me filled up.

I wish we had stumbled into the Break before Sunday because this is a legit dive sports bar full of locals.
We were looking for the Titans game and heard this place was a sports bar so we walked over. When we walked in it was like a record skipped as everyone turned and looked at us.
(Kids, a record is a thing that played music on what was called a record player. This happened back when dinosaurs roamed the earth. Sometimes the record had a scratch and the needle on the record player would skip back and forth over the same part of the song.)
HOWEVER, everyone went back to watching the games and we got some beverages and watched some football. It was divey, there were pool tables, two separate bars, and even a small bar with a TV outside. Smoky, divey, locals that all knew each other, a bartender that gave me water with a sympathetic look since she could see my hungover state, and the sound on the game.
Next time I shall come on a weekend night and see bands and what other crazy fun this place has to offer. For now it is definitely A-​OK in my book!

Great music, excellent bartenders.
If you want a place to watch the game in one room and enjoy a live band in the next. Then «The Break» is your place on Pensacola Beach

Off the beaten tourist path.
Drinks are cheap — lots of locals.
Fair weather or hardcore drinkers welcome.

Great local hang out, cheap beers and great company, ping pong, pool, bar games and plenty of local stories to be told here.

great little «dive bar». They had a great band and we had a blast. Fun group of patrons.
