Places to eat- PCB...

Mike's Diner for breakfast and meat and three lunch. Mike's is on front beach road, less than one mile past Pier Park, on the right. A little farther down is Mike's other place, Thomas Donuts, and they have tasty milkshakes and donuts. yummy.

Billy's Crab House on Thomas has good crabs, but don't waste your time unless you call ahead and to ensure that they have "select" crabs, which are the larger ones. It's a locals' dive. The other food there is just so-so. It is a little closer to 98 just past Capt Andersons, on the left side if going toward 98.

I have to second Thomas Donuts. They are a little white shack dive but have good food. But they are closed on Wednesdays. We ate last year at the Corams Steak and Egg at 2016 Thomas Drive. I don't recommend their pancakes, we just don't care for Buckwheat pancakes ourselves. And boy are they huge. We ordered three each as they were selling them per each. We had no idea they were as big as they were. The waitress said she thought we were really hungry. You can imagine the looks on our faces when she brought out our breakfast.

We like Salvatores pasta also. They have good looking pizza and calzone also. But we always get spaghetti. They are at 11206 Hutchison Blvd. Small family run place. And of course the Waffle Houses are good.

The place at Pier Park is "Five Brothers" I think. We ate there a few weeks ago and it's just a burger joint - nothing special. They have burgers, soft drinks, dogs and fries. The couple with us is from Georgia and they've eaten at one in or near Peachtree City and ranted and raved about it but I think they were even disappointed with the one in PC.

Wow, thanks for the quick reply! We are very familiar with Billy's- it had the distinction of being the only place in the area where we ate twice last year! It was already on our list!

Another place that looked interesting- we drove into the city of Panama City to see the Titanic exhibit last year. We turned off 98 and went through some pretty neighborhoods and stuff and at some point came across a small, older commercial area (not downtown, but not too far from it), and saw an older seafood place- I can't remember the name, or exactly where it was, but they looked to be doing a pretty good business. Any idea what the place is I'm talking about, and if so, is it any good?

Probably the area of Panama City called St. Andrews.

I love Coram's, beats Waffle House every time. They have fries!!!

We always like Bonefish in the Grand Panama shopping area on Middle Beach Rd. near the intersection with Alf Coleman I think.
The Saltwater Grill on Middle Beach not far from WalMarts has good food and a 5000 gal. salt water fish tank with amazing variety of fish. Can sit right uup next to the tank if your lucky.

If you are referring to Bonefish Grill there are several here in Memphis. Very popular restaurant.

Coram's is a favorite of ours on W. 98 for breakfast....close to our digs in Inlet Beach, and I like Dusty's on Beach Front Road about .5 miles west of Pier Park for oysters and sandwiches and colorful (yep, I said it here) night life characters. Champion oyster shucker, too. Other than that we eat many places and have many favorites in PC. Since we live in Memphis, we cannot in good conscience ever recommend anyone eat bbq anywhere but Memphis. It's just a thing. True dat!

InletbchOwnr, we were down last August and went by the Corams on West 98 as we stay at Inlet Beach, that is where we rent, and it was closed that entire week we were down. We assumed it was out of business. So we ended up at the one on Thomas Drive. We live in Memphis also and I hear you about the BBQ. You haven't had BBQ unless you have had Memphis BBQ. There is none that compares.
