This is the quintessential neighborhood bar & grill. The manager, Jimmy, is a wonder! I've never seen any manager as hands-on with everything in his restaurant. The absolute best crab claws in Panama City Beach can be found at Half Baked...I recommend them
blackened. The fried shrimp is perfection. You won't be able to finish the plate! The $2 draft specials are surprising...top notch brews, not the cheap stuff. Locals and tourists alike will find all they're looking for at Half Baked. The best news? They're open off season!!!
Sat at the bar and talked with Jimmy, the owner, who was so down to earth, just like all the people working there. The food was fantastic (chicken poboy, onion ring, and oysters) and the beer was ice cold! Highly recommend you go now!
Got there after 8pm on a Saturday night during Thunder Beach. Fast friendly service and great food. Their "way out there baked oysters" were some of the best I've ever had. Crab, gouda, bacon, baked on made for a meal. Jimmy was the manager and shucking oysters...he was friendly and attentive. We'll be back. Awsome!
Excellent service!! We arrived late and they were still very welcoming and didn't treat us like last minute assholes. And we got the all u can eat shrimp, which were excellent and they kept them coming. Very good oysters as well. Allison was an excellent waitress.🍤👍🏽
Food was quite good. Prices reasonable. Generous portions. Fried shrimp as good as anyone's in town. Only negative was that I prefer metal utensils over plastic forks.
The fries were very good and reminded me of fries from up north. The hush puppies were very crispy, which I like, with not too much onion in them; some of the best I've had down here. The grilled shrimp were cooked perfectly and all other dishes were very fresh. The service and attitude of staff was great. This is a solid spot along Thomas Drive.
Best seafood by far!! Half Baked is a new establishment operated by a lifetime local with years of oyster shucking and seafood experience with a great personality. Everything is fresh and homemade...from appetizer specialties, soups and stews, entrees available fried, grilled or blackened, sides including French fries, hush puppies, slaw and more!, sauces and dips, key lime pie... ALL homemade! YUM!! Thx Scotty O!!!
We'll be back!!
Excellent food at a reasonable price. The fresh Mahi was delicious and boiled shrimp were cooked just right. Not too well so they were it rubbery😀 the French fries are good too. Homemade and cooked cooked the right way.Good food and a friendly atmosphere.Good service as well!
There are only a couple of places in PCB to get blackened, sauteed' Shrimp & Grits done RIGHT...this is THE BEST I've had in Bay County, hands down! 😎
Ate there today and had no wait. The service was very good as was the food. I had a bakers dozen raw oysters from West Bay and they were ice cold. The crab, shrimp and smoked Gouda topped oysters were out of this world. The steamed shrimp and oyster stew were very good also. Half Baked isn't going to replace Hunts as our go to place since we live right near Hunts but we will definitely eat there again.
Yummy!!!. We didn't know what to expect so we were thrilled with the food and the service! We ordered fried green tomatoes that were fried perfectly and were served hot and crisp! The soft shell crab dinner was fantastic! The hushpuppies were moist and better than cake. My husband had a dozen baked oysters and he said they were the best he had ever had--seasoned and baked perfectly. Our friends had fried oysters which they said were delicious! Our server was friendly and very helpful! The only criticisms we had was that instead of ranch dressing with the tomatoes a spicey aeoli (sp?) would have been better. It would be nice if they served beer in frozen mugs. Lastly, it would be terrific if they had more beers on tap. We will be recommending Half Baked to our friends and we will be returning!!!
The staff and food were beyond anything I've ever experienced. They prepared a custom dinner for me because of my diet and each member spent time conversing with us. What a wonderful time we had.
We love, love, love this place! This is the go to place for oysters! By far the best in PCB! Extra large and delicious flavors, so many to choose from, loved the seasonings on the garlic Parmesan, oysters Rockefeller were phenomenal, loved the Carolina (chef’s own recipe), and also loved the boom-boom cajun! It is so hard to choose a favorite! Super friendly owner and staff. High quality fresh food! Also had the shrimp fajitas…wonderful flavor! Oh and the drinks and bartender is the best…had a great freshly made piña colada, margaritas, and a custom made blind russian! You can’t go wrong eating and drinking here! New owner and management, so old reviews do not count.
Stopped in for some oysters and ended up having some of the best ceviche ever! The seafood trio ceviche was amazing. Make sure to get the housemade habenero mango sauce; it goes perfectly with the tangy ceviche. We sat at the bar and had great service and conversation with the bartender, James. Laid back vibe with high quality food- can't ask for a better experience while at the beach!
Amazing food! Osters and smoked tuna dip are the best in town!! All you can eat shrimp, yum! Crab claw dinner, yum! Wings are great too if you aren't into seafood! We eat here every time we come down to PCB!

Good food and no wait. Oysters were great. Loved the crab cakes. Good chowder, tacos and hush puppies. Mixed reviews on the shrimp & grits. Service was very friendly.
Food was delicious! Raw oysters were great and the snapper was cooked to perfection. The crawfish boil had a great kick in the seasoning. They were obliviously short staffed but everyone was friendly, working hard and the beer is cold while you wait. Definitely will be returning!
I absolutely love eating here. Local atmosphere. Raw oysters are awesome, the kids chicken tenders are fabulous, french fries are fresh and absolutely delicious, the crab claws are excellent and the scallop dinner is wonderful. Friendly staff and fair prices.
The restaurant is a little tricky to get to if you've never been before and it is easier to go around the back to park (the lot will be off a side street), but more than worth it.
Oysters are good quality and the prices are good for the amount of food you get. The menu has a cute theme and they have a few items that incorporate other seafood (shrimp, crab etc.) into the dishes.
I am very glad we stumbled upon this gem.
It is a very nice place with very good attention with excellent service, the kindness of the people makes you feel good on the site and their meals are very good, I recommend it 👍
Great food good service can't wait to go back
