26 Best American Restaurants in Cocoa Beach

“Great food great service and very welcoming!“

“Newer spot. First time customer.The two women behind the counter were super knowledgeable, letting me try soo many samples! They are really excited about their products and rightfully so considering they have several creative concoctions that make kava and kratom actually taste good.Wound up enjoying a 12 oz. raspberry/original kombucha mix while reading my book in a velvet chair :)Currently, the front reception area has a totally different feel then the cool bar/lounge in the back. Which, although not intentional, gives the place a bit of a speakeasy vibe.Really welcoming people. Free popcorn. I'll be back for sure.“

“The food was a mixed bag, my ribs weren't great but my wife's steak was fantastic. The restaurant is fun and the gator tank made my kiddo happy, overall the experience was positive and the service and drinks were great.

Parking: Parking was easy, it shares lots with the best Western. It was free when I went.

Kid-friendliness: Kids will like it, it's got a cool nautical theme and a small gator tank.

Wheelchair accessibility: Fully wheelchair accessible“

“We stayed 6 nights in early June. The staff was incredible *shout out to Lou!! She arranged housekeeping to come on the day we went to Kennedy so we could relax without interruption. Breakfast buffet was awesome! We all loved the lazy river! Got to see a shuttle launch from our balcony one night. Clean rooms. Comfy beds. Close to the beach! We will be making this our go to place whenever we go to Cocoa Beach or need a place before a cruise!!“

Room was nice and clean and big. The staff at the Bistro was super friendly and made it so we didn’t have to leave in the middle of a storm to grab dinner. Thanks to everyone at the hotel.“

“Rode through Cocoa Beach on our motorcycle trip from chicago to Miami stopped for lunch. To get out of the rain for an hour . Our pizzas steak sandwich was delicious, the conch fritters were OK cooked a little too crispy, but they were still good for me. Great atmosphere fun tiki Bar indeed. Cheers!“

“Fun atmosphere, great service, ocean views, ok food. The location and service are what pull you in. Would go back just based on those 2 things alone!

Parking: Pay to park at the pier. Or park somewhere else and walk over for free. Parking is $20 to enjoy the beach and pier.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly foods.“

“Truly incredible spot! The ambience is the best part, so I will start with that. This is a very busy restaurant. We went out to the pier to sit but we were sat at the bar. This wasn’t all bad because our bartender made sure we were taken care of. The view is truly spectacular from out there. I got the burnt end Mac and cheese, and being from KC, I can confirm that this was good barbecue. Despite the flavorful taste, the portion was quite small and likely wouldn’t satisfy most adults. Overall, I would definitely visit again and I think others visiting cocoa beach should too. Great job Rikki Tiki!

Parking: During the day, parking appeared to be a ridiculous $35. Once we came into the evening, the pricing signage disappeared, so we parked for free.“

“Great food and great service from Jerry“

“Landing here was a happy accident and wow what an experience! We were welcomed like locals, treated like old friends and couldn’t recommend this place more! Food was excellent, service was top notch and the atmosphere was a blast!! Loved playing music bingo ❤️“

“we ate at quite a few places on our vacation, Ale House was definitely our favorite! staff was friendly, food was Delicious!“

“My husband and I enjoyed a tasty dinner tonight at very reasonable prices. Our server Kristi H was so personable ,attentive and efficient . The dining area was very clean and comfortable. Upon leaving the venue , another young server wished us a good evening and thanked us for coming in!“

“Great place to grab a beer and a quick lunch. I had some fried shrimp and fries and my wife had the chicken parmesan and spaghetti. The shrimp was really big and fresh, but my wife was not so happy with the sauce that was used for the chicken parmesan.
The wait staff was very friendly and attentive. The prices are a little higher than I would like. Very convenient being next to the the surf shop.“
