Flora-Bama Tops Thrillist's Best Florida Bar List.... AGAIN!

A wooden bridge leads to a rustic, multi-story beachside restaurant with a red-and-white striped awning and flying flags.

The Thrillist Explorers are known for searching the world to find the best of every subject then posting it on the internet. This time they were discussing bars in Florida and stumbled upon, and into, the Flora-Bama. Here is some of what they wrote or read the full article HERE:



"If stateline word play isn’t your best subject, here’s a primer: This bar sits right on the state line between Florida and Alabama at the far end of the Florida panhandle, a destination for spring breakers, bikers, or anyone who wants to see what a beachside roadhouse would look like if MC Escher designed it. Flora-Bama’s multi-story complex is a maze of license plates and hanging brassieres, with multiple music stages and bars stretching from the main entrance to the sand. It’s also home to the annual Mullet Toss weekend festival, a competition to see who can hurl a fish furthest across state lines. And if you’d like to experience the Bama with a side of gospel, the place also holds weekly church services on Sunday. And yes, the bar is open".
