## Story

Located at 1240 Airport Blvd., the new restaurant will kick off its grand opening celebration with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by the Pensacola partners and Walk-On’s executive team at 10 a.m. To add to the excitement, the first 100 guests in line will have a chance to win FREE Walk-On’s for a year! The winner will be selected at random and announced on opening day.

“We’re thrilled to bring Walk-On’s unique Taste of Louisiana to the Pensacola community,” said DBMC Restaurants President and Walk-On’s Franchisee Jason Gisclair “With countless TVs, a variety of local beers on tap and mouthwatering cuisine served in a game day atmosphere, Walk-On’s is the perfect place for guests to cheer on their favorite Florida teams. We can’t wait to celebrate this exciting grand opening with everyone on Monday!”

Walk-On’s first Pensacola restaurant marks the brand’s ninth Florida location. Walk-On’s Pensacola will be open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to midnight.

At Walk-On’s, each dish is made from scratch, using fresh ingredients to bring its mouthwatering, Cajun and Americana cuisine to life. The diverse menu features unique twists on game-day staples and upscale takes on Louisiana mainstays, such as Crawfish Etouffee, Duck & Andouille Gumbo and Krispy Kreme Donut Bread Pudding.
