What a perfect experience. Drift was clean with perfect lighting and enjoyable views. Our server, Bailey, was all about making our dining pleasurable with professional service. We met the Chef who was very gracious and determined to insure a wonderful dinner. Drift is now my number one dining destination at Pensacola Beach.

Food was delicious! I was craving that Arroz a la Marinera" and ut did not disappoint! Flavors actually surpassed my expectations. The goat cheese cake was superb, 5 stars! Service was also excellent and the Te Time cocktail from the bar was a very nice surprise! Will go back for a special occasion- prices only allow for special celebration.
