9 Best Cocktail Bars near Port Canaveral

“Very nice, they have the best sprite and pineapple juice mocktail in all of Cocoa Beach! I really enjoyed my experience here. The decorations were stunning, very vibrant, and lovely! I felt very calm here, our waitress was very kind and helpful, food came out in 30 minutes and we had a party of 11 so that was a lot to deal with! Sorry about that, folks! However, the meal I got, the Baja Mahi, was just ok. The lettuce and tomatoes really overpowered the flavors of the sandwich to the point where you couldn't taste anything else, and it was kind of annoying to the point where I took off the lettuce and tomatoes. However, the fish on it was SO GOOD! The fries were well seasoned, and the homemade ketchup was to die for! Overall, the ambiance and everything about rising tide were wonderful!Vegetarian options: Gives description on if it is or notDietary restrictions: They accommodate wellParking: Lot across the street from the restaurantKid-friendliness: Kids menu, kind to kidsWheelchair accessibility: No stairs“

“We LOVE this place! We come here every time we’re in Cape Canaveral- usually twice per year. The owner, Ron, is so incredibly nice. Full of historical information and just a genuinely nice guy. The bartender, Allison, is INCREDIBLE! She has created and perfected every craft cocktail on the menu, she’s sweet, talented, and we look forward to seeing her and her creations every time we come! We also have two young children and they’re so nice to our girls! Couldn’t find a better environment. Try The Breakfast Club (you’ll never want a Bloody Mary again) and the Rocket Fuel is amazing. You’ll dream of it when you’re not here!“

“The absolute BEST Mexican food with regional specialties like camarones Nayarit, or their authentic molé. The mushroom tacos taste like filet mignon and the tortillas are hand made. Be prepared for a leisurely dinner, but don’t fret, the drinks will keep you satisfied with their homemade tepache with mezcal or their fabulous margaritas. They still don’t seem to have a wine list but it does exist. You won’t be disappointed if you’re a true foodie and not an absolutist about Mexican cuisine. The stuff we generally get in the US has been Americanized ?. Go with an open mind and not on a time constraint.“

“Was starving for a restaurant-styled burger and popped in to The Preacher Bar. Burger was outstanding! Delicious and cooked exactly the way I ordered it - rare.Cool friendly staff and very relaxing interior. Lots of locals except for me. Give it a try!“

“Chicken Piccata was very good, but kind of salty... fish and chips... would have been much better, they really need to change fryer oil. (And have never seen fish and crinkle cut fries for chips). But didn't really matter, old oil taste made it unappetizing, and almost inedible. Wife ate one piece of the fish, and maybe 3 fries and couldn't go further.We were never checked back on by server/bartender.“

“Exceeded our expectations in every way! WOW! This place is a hidden gem! We’ve been coming to Cocoa Beach for years, and stumbled upon The Alibi kind of by accident, and are we so happy we did! We are cocktail connoisseurs, and this place did not disappoint! Every cocktail we had was absolutely delicious and so well balanced! The food was scrumptious and the staff went above and beyond in every way! Even had the pleasure of meeting the owner! He has put incredible thought into each and every detail of this place. Highly recommend it! It will become a tradition every time we visit Cocoa Beach!“

“Absolutely fantastic! Great atmosphere, food is excellent and the drinks are perfect. Shelley was our bartender and was amazing! Make sure you ask for her, she was so wonderful we canceled our table reservation and spent the evening at the bar. She was so much fun. Even if you do not stay at this property you need to go this restaurant. Will be back!“

“Had a good time with my posse! Some of the singers were terrific! Had a very hard time getting the attention of the bar staff. They seemed to ignore our group. I think I waited at the bar for at least 15 minutes before anybody acknowledged my presence. And I am not one to be ignored! LOL“
