Sports Bars in Destin

Alright, I concede that the best place to watch a football game is in a Stadium watching the real deal...but without a pro team nearby, where can a die hard fan find a great game?!?...Also with the volume of travelers this city sees, where can the average fan keep up with their team each week?

So let's help out our visitors, transplants, vacationers, etc....WHAT ARE THE BEST SPORTS BARS in town? Who has the best screens, the coldest beer, the cutest cheerleaders/bartenders, etc.

We want to hear from you, tell us your favorite and be entered to win some cool Club Hour Tees....if you win we will expect a Chad Johnson-like victory dance...LOL...

By far the best place to watch the games is Johnny O'Quigley's. They have huge plasma TV's everywhere. Believe it or not, but even in the bathroom LOL... They also have just about ever beer you can think of, wine, great cocktails (: and the food is perfect! Try it, I give it a 10

Football Lover!

Beef's in the Market Shops at Sandestin is a great place for the games and you can bet I will be there for Gators vs Tide on 9/30. My daughter is a new Gator and I am a Tide fan so how do you do the Chomp while yelling Roll Tide Roll?

We'll find out.

Beef's also has some great food and is more family oriented as well. Beer and wine only if you are into the drinks and a couple of good imports.

I am warming up to Destin...bars with bathrooms and bathrooms with TVs...perfect palce for the big games! In fact we hav done a fun piece in O'Quigs in the bathroom...quick interesting, I might have to dig through the old stuff and see if i can dig that up.

Anywhere else? I know Anglers is consistently one of thebest spots on the eastern end of Destin, any favorites on 30A? Anyone been to Shades lately? How about all those beers on tap!!!

Shades is good. I watched a game there last Thursday. They have quite a few beers on tap.
