Pensacola, Florida is home to some of the most interesting and diverse restaurants in the panhandle. Each restaurant is different from the next in ambiance, history, and overall dining experience. However, one restaurant in particular stands out in this ever-changing town and that is O’Brien’s Bistro. This charming, Pensacola-favorite has been serving up fresh, locally sourced food and fine wine since 1999, and has continued doing so after being purchased by owners David and Lucia Greenfield in 2017.
New Improvements
David and Lucia have continued the bistro’s excellence since purchasing O’Brien’s and have made some exciting improvements.
- New Outdoor Patio Addition
- Dog-Friendly
- COVID-19 Precautions
- Serving Alcoholic Beverages
The outdoor patio let’s you dine in an open-air feel where you can soak in the sun or stars (depending on the time). Providing a unique dining experience, the outdoor patio has quickly become one of the most sought after features of O’Brien’s Bistro.
O’Brien’s has also recently started serving other alcoholic beverages and are in the process of adding a full bar inside the restaurant. “The bar will be attached to the restaurant next door and will be the first thing you see, off to the right-hand side,” says David. This renovation is estimated to be complete around Thanksgiving.
Handling COVID-19
The Coronavirus pandemic that is sweeping the nation this year has impacted residents and business in Pensacola, but the staff at O’Brien’s isn’t slowing down. “Inside the restaurant, we’re at 50% capacity and the tables are spaced to abide by social distancing and CDC guidelines,” says David. “All of our tables are cleaned and sanitized by the staff after each seating, as well as sanitizing various parts of the restaurant.” David added that each staff member wears a face mask while inside the bistro and wash their hands frequently. Hand sanitizer is also available in restrooms and at the front entrance. O’Brien’s is still serving the full menu, complete with daily chef’s specials and fine wine recommendations.
