The Red Door Saloon

Love this place. This is where we locals love to hang out and be loud and obnoxious and be ourselves and don’t have to feel out of place. great prices and great staff.

THE place to go in Destin… we always come here when we visit Destin. We were there on Sunday, during game times… beer was 2 for 1, food was AMAZING and our bartender Kyle was super friendly! Try the Asian Spicy Chicken. Food portions are huge, so share with a friend!

This is my kinda place. Unique and original. We were in destin for a week stuck going to over trafficked commercialized bars until we found this place .If you like places where, when you leave you know that you will never forget and make authentic memories this is it. P. S. Get the bushwacker. Solid choice

Outstanding place for a few drinks and great food for a very reasonable price. Often overlooked due to their location on the Destin harbor but well worth the effort to find them. They are east of fishing fleet up on the hill. See Kyle on the weekends he will absolutely hook you up with their drinks, try the unique Bush Whackers, and outstanding food.

Love this place. Staff is great, drinks are solid, not much more you could ask for in a locals place like this. Would be nice if they could get some house darts so that people could play even if they don’t own their own.

Great bar. Love the outdoor bar which has enough space that people don’t feel stuck together. The bar staff (99% hunks) are always nice. They know their booze, and they always recommend something if I don’t know what I want. They have started to mix up their music which I love… anything from Rock to EDM… that is the reason I started to go back, and recommend my mates go there when they are in the area.

Omg this is such a great bar! Great prices, amazing alcohol/​beer selection, and stellar service! Im from New Orleans and i found that this place resembles dive bars back home: great drinks, great prices, great people!

Great indoor/​outdoor dive bar! Lots of sitting space. Great bar for weeknight drinks with a decent crowd. Came on a Wednesday night and it was awesome! It wasn’t too empty yet you still have room to sit.

The red door is my kind of place. Everybody fits in whether your young, old, rich or poor, if you like a good place to hang out and have a beer or ten and look out over the harbor this is the place. You can even bring your pets, now how cool is that? The fact that they have a couple of bartenders that are sexy as hell doesn’t hurt either. All saidi The Red Door is the kind of place where a tourist will feel like a local. Nuff Said

Good local place. Drinks are reasonable and it’s a good mix of people. Chill dive with a nice outside bar. Only thing is that it’s right by the dumpster and when it’s hot and windy, it starts to stink.

Like the overall atmosphere inside and out. The bar could be a little cleaner it had a funky smell.

Not a huge fan… A lot better bars around and some worse, I would rather the Red Door over AJs but I would stick to the small more intimate bars in the area.

Stopped in on Labor Day with a couple of buddies. Must have caught them on a bad day. Warm draft beer, apathetic bar gal, smell of refuse from the dumpster below — one and done and won’t go back.

Nice place. I like sitting outside with a decent view. Friendly. Even though we were having shots and drinking beer, every time I needed another I had to go find the bartender who never seemed to be around. He was always focused on a couple of guys at the other end. If I have to hunt you down you don’t get a tip. He didn’t need to come to the table but at least our end of the bar.

Great place for a beer and a great sandwich! It’s a dive!!! The view is good! The draft beer is very cold!!!

The real deal and not a tourist spot. If you want a tidy «Disney like» experience go to one of many other bars along the boardwalk. For me, this was a great way to spend a Friday night with some beer and good pub food. The live music was great and people were up dancing if the tune moved them.

Locals flock to this place… so what else do I need to say?
Great drinks… enabling bartenders that keep your lips wet with frosty beverages. Get there early and belly up to the bar… cause in a few hours the fun begins. Weather permitting, bikers show up, when shifts end… locals will ALWAYS show up.
It is one of the few places I will miss in the area

It’s safe to say this bar is pretty popular but it doesn’t really get kicking until the very late night/​early morning hours. It has a reputation as a biker bar, but I’ve seen very few bikes parked here. Truth be told, it’s a magnet for service industry folks, which explains the late, late night patriotism. Most people sit outside around the huge open-​air bar. Even in winter, with the eaters burning high, of course. The bartenders here know what they are doing, and they have a nice collection of spirits in stock to craft a great cocktail. If beer is more your thing, you will not be disappointed with the variety to choose from.

The City of Destin doesn’t want me telling you anything positive exists in this town with the word «dive» in its description that doesn’t include doing something with a body of water. It can’t be helped.
The Red Door is one of the better bars in Destin. In the off season it gets pretty divey, which is awesome. But otherwise this place is a great place to be. It has a huge floor space, is both an indoor and outdoor bar, is very reasonably priced and they have a solid staff. They have lots of TVs and is a great place to go during football season. One of my favorite things about the Red Door is NO LIVE MUSIC. I mean, admit it: Most of the time, the bands are too loud and they kinda suck, right?
I’ve seen the Red Door pretty packed, but never so crowded that you couldn’t move around. And it’s strategically placed for the beginning or end of a Pub Crawl. Oh yeah, and they have… food.

Great, casual, local, good-​time bar. This reminds me of the Cheers of Destin. It’s outdoors, which is cool, and a fun place to make friends and memories.
It gets PACKED on the weekends, but even then, the bartenders are really friendly and so are the patrons. The bouncers are so chill that they let you bring in your drink you got from the last bar you went to (it was an accident!) This bar represents everything awesome about the South.
As other reviewers said, don’t wear nice things or get too fancy, or you’ll look out of place. The bar doesn’t feel dirty at all, but you will probably get spilled on, and people smoke. Like I said, classy = no. Fun as hell = yes.
I’d love to go back!
