Ashley’s have been around a long time and we have been going for decades.This place is definitely popular because of the atmosphere and what they is a haunted old train station building.It’s a great feel inside and outside of this place. You have to visit it just because of that, and who knows you may see or feel the presence of a ghost ?Now for the food. They have a wide selection of choices but unfortunately this restaurant is hit or miss kinda place. Lately they stopped serving bread service. Always enjoyed that myself.The service is always good and we always enjoyed going but we limit it to about once a year these days or when we have visitors and want to them somewhere unique.

With new owners the quality went downhill and prices went way up...even happy hour beers are at least 30% more expensive than those at beach side restaurants...used to be good bar, always full inside and out....now it's empty most of the time.....

At first the idea of this place sounded cool, but there was no warmth when you walk in, not too many nice options to sit, our waitress was very nice but I felt a weird vibe I don’t know if it wax the haunted feeling but I had such a bad energy and it got me in such a bad mood! I’m very sensitive to energy. The salad was lack luster , I got chicken parmigiana it was pretty good , but this place I think was way over priced! $12 for a half of glass of wine!! Won’t be going back don’t recommend.

Whelp, I haven't been to Ashley's in a good long while. Probably won't go back. I ordered the beef stroganoff, it looked and tasted much like an MRE from my old Army days. There seemed to be only one server who was also the bartender, so stretched entirely too thin, not her fault by any means. The best part about Ashley's is knowing that you are sitting in a bit of old Florida history.

Everything was delicious and service for the most part was great. Only reason I can't justify giving 5 stars is because my husband and I got there at 8pm and felt rushed throughout our entire experience there. I had checked online ahead of time and it said they closed at 10:00 so we figured 8 wouldn't be a problem but turned out the inside closes an hour earlier than their outside dining area ??♀️ On top of that it just so happened to be karaoke night ? All in all, it was a good time and the food was amazing. Just felt like we were being hurried along by the server. Sad part was that I went there dozens of times with my family when I was younger and it was my absolute favorite local spot to go for dinner and the ghost stories obviously helped. So I played it up so much to my husband over the years about how great the place is and this was his first impression of it. So that's a bummer and idk how likely it is I'll be able to get him back in there any time soon. He especially doesn't like to feel pressured and rushed, especially when you're spending $100 to be eating there. So yeah looong story short they get 4 stars from me ?

Such a cool old place right on the tracks. With a great story about the building dating back to the 1800s. Definitely a good stop on a road trip down us1 or just to try out for lunch.

We went as a party of six to this restaurant on the train tracks. The nostalgia of the building with the hauntings were fascinating. Lots of neat history, with several pictures of "haunting ghosts". To be honest, I'm more interested in the history of the building and its use as a depot at one point.Food was ok. Had the shrimp scampi and even though we asked for no green onions, it still had onions. Ordered the goulash, and even though I asked if there were onions and was told no, there were onions in it. Also, son ordered some onion rings and those were missed, but prepared quickly after we asked (two of us don't like onions, one loves them, go figure ?). Small mix-up with lettuce vs no lettuce on the two burgers (again, not a big deal) and apparently a miscommunication on the substituted sweet potatoe fries (once we were told there was an upcharge we declined, but they were provided anyway). All small things and completely workable.All that being said, waitress was so nice and apologetic and even offered a few free desserts to make up for it. Wasn't a huge deal to us though. Enjoyed the experience; everyone in the building was extremely nice and let us walk around to see everything. The stained glass windows were really neat all over the building. It's worth a trip if you're in Rockledge.Parking: Parking is available on both the north and south side of the restaurant with the entrance being in the middle on the east side.
Excellent!
