Just began going to this venue. We have been twice this week. Great spot with really knowledgeable staff. It's been fun learning the game. We just attended their Pickleball 101 class (free for first timers). Great little bar area as well. Perfect spot to go and have a couple drinks and chill . Can't wait until their indoor area opens!

Portside Pickle is a great spot for pickleball in Pensacola. The courts are well maintained, the facility is clean, and the layout makes it easy to watch and play. The atmosphere during open play is energetic but organized, and staff do a good job keeping things running smoothly. Whether you’re playing competitively or just coming out to enjoy the game, it’s a well run facility with a welcoming environment. Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for a solid place to play pickleball in the area.

We’ve really been enjoying playing at Portside Pickle! The courts are top notch and well-maintained while still developing more of the property. The nets in between courts really make open play so much easier instead of having to chase down game balls. The bathrooms are super nice and are climate controlled! Another perk is that rules for rotation and line calls are set and are fair, instead of witnessing arguments at community courts over how things should be done. It’s comforting to know that good sportsmanship is encouraged here! We love the staff, too! Gio, Connor, Romeo, and Kelli are staples ensuring that everyone has what they need and feel welcomed playing on the Portside courts! I have to shoutout Rickey who is a top tier coach, changing my game one lesson at a time! I also have to shoutout Kelli who really knows pickleball and is building an awesome community through open play and offering more tournament and league play opportunities. I recently played in the Battle on the Bay WD and MxD tournament and had a blast competing with other local talent, meeting new friends through friendly competition, and cheering on my friends in their brackets. Cant wait to be back from Christmas vacation to play at Portside some more!

Portside Pickleball has it all! Beautiful courts, a bar, a food truck with delicious burgers, a cool view of the water, friendly staff and the best part is getting to know this sweet girl named Birdie. She makes sure to introduce herself to everyone ! Birdie is the best! I took this pic of her giving me her lovable "please feed me eyes".

Great location, helpful staff, top notch courts, and free parking. The venue is quite comfortable and makes for a wonderful destination visit for the recreational or avid player. As other reviews stated, there are options for F&B. Dropped in for a ladder play event which was very reasonably priced and there was great competition. Looking forward to my next visit to Pensacola and Portside Pickle.
