4 years agoStumbled across this place via google maps. I can’t believe I haven’t been here before. A decent tap list and some good beers you can’t find anywhere else. It’s a great place to hang. Bring in your own food and meet friendly people and enjoy good beer! Come out and keep this place going!

4 months agoSuper cute whole in the wall bar, with a sandwich food truck that did not disappoint. Service was fast and good. It was a nice stop for our quiet afternoon.

3 years agoI absolutely loved the Karaoke place the bar had. Great selection of songs and a lot more options than most. The bar was great and reasonable on drinks. I’ll be back for sure. I only hope next time we don’t have dogs in the bar off leash barking at patrons. I love dogs, but it’s just not the place for that and it was allowed to continue. I’m assuming that it’s a fluke occurrence. 🙂

4 months agoThere are dive bars, and then there’s Wisteria. But honestly? Wisteria wouldn’t be the same without Hensley. In a town full of bartenders who just sling drinks, Hensley is a total pro. Whether the patio is packed for a food truck night or it’s a quiet Tuesday under the neon, they have this uncanny ability to make you feel like a regular—even if it’s your first time walking through the door. Hensley’s got that perfect balance of being lightning-fast with the pours while still having enough time to crack a joke or give a solid local recommendation. They know the menu, they know the locals, and they keep the energy exactly where it needs to be. If you’re heading to the East Hill area, do yourself a favor: grab a spot at the bar, look for Hensley, and settle in. Best service in Pensacola, hands down.

Gabrielle Neveu
year agoA Nice Little Neighbourhood local tavern with a big outdoor seating area with tvs and a variety of seating arrangements. The food is from a parked Food Truck with delicious sandwiches. Reasonable drink prices, lots of selection. Great staff. Parking in back. Travelling from Canada through Florida with our 2 dogs, it was a nice place to watch the game, and felt like a safe community.

4 years agoDive bar, hole in the wall, quaint and very interesting place. Located in an unusual spot makes this place awesome! Grandfathered in and they offer live music as well as TVs for sports viewing. Has a great patio in the back with an awesome food truck located on the lot. Around 22 beers on tap as well as a great selection of cans or bottles. I will for sure be visiting again when I am in Pensacola.
Panayiota Whisler
9 months agoAwesome 90 year old bar where the locals hangout in Old Easthill under the canopy of Oak trees. A lot is packed in this little place. Large selection of beer and seltzer, and some wine too with excellent customer service behind the bar. TV's inside and out back for the sports fans. A dart machine and pinball. Trivia a night during the week and several local bands play out back on some weekends. Their Wisteria sandwich food truck is also delicious.
