Coconuts on the Beach — Restaurant in Cocoa Beach

Coconut was an absolute gem we discovered on our beachside adventure! After a long, invigorating stroll along the shoreline, we decided to stop by this lively tiki bar for some well-deserved refreshments. The atmosphere was buzzing with upbeat island vibes, and the sound of waves crashing nearby set the perfect backdrop for our little escape.

As soon as we stepped in, we were greeted by Lisa, our fabulous server, who instantly made us feel at home. With a bright smile and a playful spirit, she suggested some delicious mixed drinks and local beers that would be just the thing to quench our thirst.

The tiki bar itself was a feast for the senses. Vibrant colors adorned the walls, and the décor brought that quintessential beachy feel. We snagged a cozy spot at a table with a stunning view of the beach, the gentle ocean breeze ruffling our hair as we sipped our drinks and laughed about the day’s adventures.

As the sun began to dip below the horizon, painting the sky with brilliant oranges and pinks, we couldn't help but soak in the beauty all around us. Lisa made sure we never ran dry, deftly balancing between tables and cracking jokes that kept the atmosphere light and fun. We even ended up trying a couple of her favorite appetizers, the coconut shrimp was particularly out of this world!

By the time we decided to leave, we felt fully relaxed and recharged, with our hearts full of laughter and our spirits uplifted. Coconut turned out to be more than just a pitstop; it became a highlight of our beach day, a place where good drinks, amazing service, and breathtaking views came together perfectly. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Expect to wait! DO NOT ORDER ‘Seafood Scampi’!

We visited on a Sunday evening. We were told the wait was 90 minutes. We put our name in, but within 10 minutes, we got a text message saying our table was ready…. Great! I’m not going to complain when the table was ready muuuch quicker than expected.

The outdoor seating at the restaurant was pretty full, indoor still had a few open tables, but plates/cups hadn’t been cleared (they were quite busy). We sat indoors, waited and waited and waited (like 15-20 min) and couldn’t figure out who our server was so I finally asked a nearby server and she helped us to get a server (somehow the bartender from outdoor seating got assigned as our server, our table was pretty far from the outdoor seating). Finally got our orders in. Drinks and appetizers came in a reasonable amount of time. But we waited 30/40 minutes before our entrees were served.

One of the entrees we ordered was Seafood Scampi ($25.90). It was supposed to have shrimp and scallops. We only got 3 shrimp on the plate (with fettuccine), such a joke. Not sure if this is how they serve this dish normally, but I’m surprised the cook/server would bring out food like this. I would probably pay $8 for this plate, and not $25.90. Also the fettuccine was really dry, not enough sauce/butter/oil.

Things were very chaotic in the restaurant, we didn't see any manager around or have a table visit. Some other plates of food were okay, and our server did try her best to serve us but she was also really busy. If we revisit the area we will not...

Where do i begin!?!?? There are so many positive things to say about this place. Our first time here and we were greated by some super friendly bartenders, Kait and Ryan! We ordered a margarita and a Miami vice and they hit the spot and were very good drinks. Well, while enjoying our drinks I began conversating with the 2 ladies beside us. A bit later I found out that one was the owner and the other was the GM. Honestly, would have never known, they were so down to earth and just 2 of the nicest people you could meet, and that's probably why the staff here has remained for YEARS!!! It was recommended that i get the filet for dinner and I did. My only "complaint" is that i order it tempted to medium, but received more on the medium well side. No big deal as it was still very tender and packed with flavor!!

Now, 2 weeks later, my wife and I returned and were again lucky enough to find 2 seats at the tiki bar. Ryan, the bartender, was there and was like, hey guys, welcome back!! Great service and a way to feel appreciated!!! Hannah was there with him and in the 5 hours we were there, we had the smoked fish dip, hot wings and the chefs special NY Strip with Asparagus and Rice with beans! Also had some Mojitos, Mules and other drinks. Once again, everything was on point and just tasted amazing!!!

Do yourself a favor, if you're ever in Cocoa beach, shoot, if you're ever within a couple hour drive, just GO HERE!!!! It's right on the beach and just an awesome spot to hang out, have great food, drinks and...
