The answer depends on how your ISP is routing your /27 to you. The
simplest setup is when they give you a static IP ouside of your
subnet. No bridging is required in this case, the ISP routes your
subnet via your static, and pfsense does the rest.

If your ISP does not allocate you a WAN IP address outside your public
subnet, then you will indeed want to bridge as you described, and then
probably set up VIPs on the WAN, the details of which I am not
familiar with.
