Outdoor experience is great. Live entertainment. Picnic table seating is comfortable and shaded. Food was okay. Six grilled shrimp in a load of savory pasta. Garlic bread lightly toasted and missing garlic and butter. Service was pleasant.

Friendly staff that feels like family if you keep coming back. Food is yummy and drinks are cold. Kid- and dog-friendly outdoor space. Small beach where kids swim and paddle boarders launch. Killer sunsets, too.

My family and I had a great experience on a Thursday night on the Oyster Bar side. It was pretty busy and I appreciated all the staff working together to make sure everyone was taken care off. Our food tasted great but really you just can't beat that sunset view.

First time here...always wanted to try it. Had the seared sesame crusted tuna, fried pickles and macadamia nut cheesecake. ALL DELICIOUS!!

Schooners Dockside Restaurant & Bar in Niceville, FL has the most beautiful sunsets and water views, plus a very friendly, welcoming vibe. This is definitely a locals hot spot!

We just moved into the area and chose to try this place because it was local and close, they were very busy (Mother's day). They still gave us great service and even allowed us to order to go and sit outside on their beautiful dock during a live performance. Everyone was super nice and helpful and the food was amazing! Super excited to go back in the future and becoming a regular there. The view was also amazing.11/10

The food here is awesome; we try to eat here once a month. We bring company here to ensure they get a great meal.

Enjoyed dinner with fried shrimp and crab cakes. Amazing views as you sit above the marina. Service was friendly and professional.

20.00 for a dozen...best time of year for them. They were delightful. Comes with crackers, horseradish, and cocktail sauce. Would recommend!

Good beer, with good food. I'd recommend this to anyone living in the area.This place is great for an afternoon for a catchup with friends. Families are welcome, kids play on the sand and in the water. Building sand castles or catching hermit crabs.
