11 Best Cocktail Bars in Daytona Beach

“We went to Caribbean Jacks while on vacation, and were not disappointed. The food was wonderful, and the service was fantastic. This is not the reason for the review however. When we contacted the restaurant about a possible lost credit card, Chris and the rest of his staff went above and beyond by locating the card, then personally mailing it to our home. Now that’s service!“

“On our trip to Daytona to hit the old stomping grounds, we decided to stop at a lounge that I remember similar ones as a kid growing up in FL where it was a convenient store up front to get my Icee and peak in to the smokey bar in the back. Pulled up here on a weekday afternoon for a slow day while it started to pour rain, but the drinks were poured and the dart games began. This did bring back memories of college of smoking at a lounge, playing games, talking to others, and waiting for the sun to go down (or a storm to pass). We enjoyed our time here.“

“Sandy, the bartender, is just amazing. There's touch tunes with a great crowd so whatever you wanna listen to, they'll love it! I was only here for a week but I had THE BEST time!!.

There is smoking inside, but as a nonsmoker, you will get used to it. I can't wait to come back!“

“I took my niece and her friends there for her 13th birthday on Saturday for a fancy dinner. The staff here was amazing made her birthday extra special started with the menu she opened it and it said happy birthday with her name. Our waiters were amazing imagine how chaotic and loud four 13 year old girls can be but they didn’t skip a beat. Made sure their drinks were always full and very attentive that my niece said how did they know I wanted this. It was all around a great experience. Will be visiting again but if you want a loved one to feel special for their special day this is the place“

“Great drinks and great food!“

“The most inviting staff, such fresh seafood !! KJ is the best bartender ask for her, and get your happy hour drink. Go for the ribeye special also. Our favorite local place.“

“I had such a great time at this restaurant! I went with a group of 6 ladies for a girls night out. The ambiance was warm and inviting with a stunning backdrop on the water. The hostess and servers were so inviting and patient with everyone. The drinks and appetizers unique and delicious! This is a classy but very comfortable place to go for a relaxing evening. I highly recommend for couples looking for a romantic evening but also for groups of friends to go somewhere and unwind.“

“Great hotel and great service! Isabela and the team that put together the drinks/food at our conference were great and incredibly fun! They all brought great energy into our conference and were always helpful. Isabela went above and beyond taking care of our group during happy hour“

“best taco salad and great service“

“We stopped in on Friday to try out the new addition. We walked in the door and were greeted with a smile from the get go. All of the staff was wonderful and so welcoming. The bread was to die for. Seriously, the best bread I have ever had. Vittorio stopped by to chat with us and we love how passionate he was about selecting only the best ingredients. We tried a few things but will be making more trips back for sure!“

“Dinner service at Don Rico’s was a pleasant surprise. The service was attentive (Danielle was amazing ) but what blew me away was Chef Brandon’s special. He gets a fresh catch each week and offers seasonal specials. I had the Mahi curry with jasmine rice and for a beachside sports bar, this was a meal I would find at a fine dining experience. If you are at the resort don’t judge dinner service by the lunch - it is a total 360.“
