Portside Pickle

About Us

Welcome to Portside Pickle — the Gulf Coast's waterfront home for pickleball, community, and FUN!!! We're perched right on the water at 740 Commendencia Street in the heart of downtown Pensacola, ten minutes from the beach and worlds away from whatever you were supposed to be doing today.

Great game, silly name — that's pickleball. It's also the easiest sport on earth to fall for, and we built this place to make sure you do. Our world class courts welcome everyone, from the first-timer who's never held a paddle, to the social player just looking for a game and chasing the pickleball vibe, to the competitive player pursuing their next tournament title. Want to get better? Book a lesson. You don't have to be good to have a great time. You just have to show up.

Forgot to pack a paddle? We've got you. We carry everything you need to play: paddles, balls, shoes, and Portside swag worth wearing home. We rent paddles, we keep 90-plus in stock, and every paddle we sell is also one you can demo — so you can swing before you spend. We are the biggest little pickleball shop for 100 miles, and we mean it.

Reserve your court through the Portside Pickle App — less time on your phone, more time on the courts. Grab a day pass, load up a punch card, or book your spot in a few taps. New in town and flying solo? Jump into Open Play and find your people.

But our premium courts are only half the story. Between games, pull up to the bar, grab a drink, catch the sunset over the bay, and stay for the part nobody warns you about — the community. Bring the family, bring your crew, bring your friends, and meet friends you haven't made yet. This is where Pensacola comes together.

Tired of the beach? Come play pickle. Just don't blame us when one visit turns into a habit.

Portside Pickle — Pensacola's Pickleball Paradise. A great game is only the beginning.
