Best pick tonight: The Wine Bar on Palafox. Go by 5:00–5:30 p.m. because its happy hour ends at 6:00 p.m.

• Deal: More than 20 rotating wines by the glass at half price, offered 11 a.m.–6 p.m. daily, as listed for Tuesday, August 11 (happy-hour listing).
• Where: 16 Palafox Place, Pensacola, FL 32502
• Website/menu: thewinebaronpalafox.com
• Why I’d choose it: Best combination of drink quality, real savings, food and a walkable downtown atmosphere. A PensacolaCoPilot member also reported yesterday that the happy hour was running until 6 p.m.; that observation is firsthand but unverified.
• Parking: Try the Jefferson Street garage or paid street parking rather than circling Palafox.

If you can’t arrive before 6: choose Reservoir, 524 N. Hayne Street. Its advertised weekday happy hour runs 4–7 p.m. with BOGO domestic drafts, wine and well drinks, plus a Tuesday tacos-and-tequila theme (current listing).
