Five Sisters Blues Café
Five Sisters' Blues Café
A Southern soul food spot in a former record shop building, popular for its fried chicken and Sunday blues brunch.
Opened in 2010 at the corner of Belmont and DeVilliers streets, the building was formerly Gussie's Record Shop and the WBOP radio station, in Pensacola's historic Black neighborhood. The name comes from the owner's mother and her sisters. The menu is Southern cooking with Creole and Caribbean touches: fried chicken with your choice of piece, blue crab cakes made from a secret recipe, okra soup, fried green tomatoes, braised oxtail, and red beans and rice. Live blues brunch is served on Sundays, and waits can run 20 to 30 minutes at peak times. Main courses cost about $15 to $28. The restaurant is a walk north of downtown.
Opening hours
Monday to Thursday 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM; Friday and Saturday until 10:00 PM; Sunday brunch 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM
