With Admiral Flounder

     We at Flounder's are proud of our antiques, Objects d'Art and fleet of Boats.  We hope you enjoy and appreciate them as much as we enjoyed finding them for you.  The beautiful and colorful fan-shaped stain glass which is the focal point of our bar and the stained glass panels that form the large entry way screen come from a convent in upstate New York. Over the bar you will see the huge hand-carved oak threshold apex which once graced the old St. Charles Hotel in New Orleans. The large door-like carved oak sections and the other three pieces at the end of the dining room are sections of confessional booth (ah, the stories they could tell. . .) from a church in New Orleans. The magnificent turn-of-the-century Brass Chandelier in the center of our dining area once hung in the ballroom of The Palace Hotel in Norfolk, Virginia. In the windows are rare beveled glass panels and authentic European stained glass Pub Windows.  Up in the loft you'll find everything from British pub signs to the rear end of a real Corvette. Some of the more notable items are antique trunk previously owned by silent screen actress Hattie Carter; the late Nelson B. Hamilton's classical tuba and our collection of authentic moonshine stills from Santa Rosa County. Nearby a cypress skiff built in 1930 to hunt in the marshes of the west of us on Pensacola Beach.

     As you approach the building you surely notice FLOUNDER our 55 foot steel-hulled Shrimp Boat. This grand vessel complete with nets, trawling sleds, mast and rigging weighs over 30 tons. She was commissioned in the early part of the century in Bayou La Batre and shrimped from Galveston to the Florida Keys.

On Flounder's Beach you will find an actual 15-foot Cuban Raft, with a Russian built engine, which carried 27 illegal refugees 85 miles across the Gulf from Cuba to Key West. 

As you can see, Flounder's Promises you a uniquely interesting and warm atmosphere with excellent Food and Drinks prepared by friendly employees who Give a Damn!!
