“ Fun local owned bar and restaurant on the water with the cutest decor. Better service and atmosphere than Pop's next door, they didnt even acknowledge us when we walked up so then we happily ended up at Pelicans Alley. . Lauren was super friendly and made us great cocktails. A smoked old fashioned that comes in a cute treasure box (ask about the smoke flavor options) and a tasty chocolatey espresso martini. It also has an adorable little gift shop. The dynamite shrimp is fantastic and a huge portion. ”

“ First time at P.A. Their specials were delicious and presented in a creative, artful way. You can sense that the staff take great pride in their various responsibilities. This restaurant correctly promotes itself as a relaxing family experience along the water. Also, their homemade Key Lime pie was a must-have. I don't know how they do it, but the pie was a smooth balance between tart and sweet with an incredibly tasteful graham cracker crust. ”
