The Craft Bar Grand Boulevard

The Craft Bar brings a rotating lineup of craft beer to Grand Boulevard, pairing a deep tap list with burgers and pub fare built to match. The Miramar Beach location, at 655 Grand Boulevard, Suite D 102, operates as part of Wine World Restaurant Group, the Emerald Coast hospitality company that also runs The Wine Bar and Beach Camp Brewpub. Where its sister restaurant, The Wine Bar, focuses on curated wines, The Craft Bar leans into beer culture, with a tap wall that changes regularly to keep regulars coming back for something new.

The food menu stays casual and beer-friendly. Burgers anchor the lineup, backed by pub fare built for sharing over a round of drinks. The bar does not take reservations, so seating runs first come, first served, which fits the relaxed, walk-in energy of the space. Specialty programming adds to the draw: the bar runs a regular happy hour, hosts a dedicated burger night, and turns Sunday into something more festive with a brunch built around champagne and fried chicken.

Beer lovers can also take the experience home. The Craft Bar sells crowlers, canned beer poured to go, so guests can carry a favorite tap selection back to a condo or beach rental after a visit. A branded food truck extends the concept beyond the restaurant’s four walls, showing up at area events. For visitors who want a keepsake from the trip, the bar also offers custom engraving on wine, spirits and merchandise like Yeti products.

The Grand Boulevard location is open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., and the kitchen closes an hour before the bar. The Craft Bar also offers a military discount, a detail that matters given how many active-duty families and veterans live along the Emerald Coast near Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field.

Sitting inside the Grand Boulevard at Sandestin town center, The Craft Bar keeps easy company with the district’s other restaurants and shops, making it simple to grab dinner and drinks before catching a show at the nearby Emerald Coast Theatre Company or browsing the Boulevard’s stores. Call 850-608-6226 with large party questions, and follow @thecraftbarfl for new taps and events. The Craft Bar has seven locations on the Emerald Coast, from Pensacola to Panama City Beach, including Niceville, Fort Walton Beach and two in Destin.
