Going to PC Beach for Thanksgiving, and need recommendations on eateries. By eateries, I mean places where one gets good beach food without a lot of flash, kinda' like Harbor Docks on Lake Martin ?? Really good local seafood served in plastic or paper plates and pitcher beer with plastic glasses? Paper towel roll for napkins? Wood benches rather than upholstered chairs?
Captain Anderson's is NOT a choice, know what I mean?
Dusty's is already nailed for oysters, several times I hope.
I need your ideas for a good breakfast place, either table service or buffet. Also, a place for take-out biscuits??
Fried or broiled fish, once again without the flair. Maybe a local place that is not advertised??
Any other ideas are appreciated. Italian, Steaks, BBQ, all those included.
Thanks, Mack

Make a little drive over to Port. St. Joe. I think maybe 30 minutes??? Go to the Marina. Been there done that, and man it was great. Or, you can just come to Prattville, and I will cook for you. "just sayin'.

Hunt's Oyster Bar....the best seafood in the PC area. Been going there since 1972 and it's family owned.

Went to PC a year or so ago. I always look for a local seafood joint that isn't covered by tourists. I found Uncle Ernies in Panama City - not the beach but the town. It sits overlooking the marina. Really good fresh seafood at a resonable price and off season the staff is more generous with food too. Not as big as the picture shows. Sun dried tomato bread-yum.

Catch Beck Avenue and go south. Yellow building on the left. Go for lunch specials. Mini seafood platter: 3 big fried
shrimp, 3 fried oysters, real grouper fingers, jalopena hushpuppies, and another side. $7.95!

Skip Captain Andersons and eat at Boatyard. You will never regret it.
Bayoa Joes in Panama City is a great local hide out.
Hunts Oysters in Panama City is great but, almost always over crowded.
Pineapple Willys has the best ribs I ever ate.
Bishops Buffet - The crablegs, shrimp is great. $29,99 a person and no atmosphere.
HookD <<< Yes HookD on the pier is great for lunch.
We missed Montego Bay last time so can say.
Sharkeys was a good meal also.

Its a tradition we always eat breakfast at Corams. There are several now. The one on 23rd Panama City is the best, The one on Thomas is 2nd, and the one on back beach road is not very good.

J.W. Michaels is the worst - food has no taste.

Have not been to St. Andrews pier in decades. Will try the places you listed there. Again, appreciate the references.

Captain's table (next door to Hunt's) is also a very good choice. Usually end up at Captain's table because Hunt's is usually too slammed.

Someone has already mentioned Hunts. I also enjoyed Billy's oyster bar, Thomas dr. on the right before you get to Cpt Anderson's. Very much like you describe.
