The Berm Botanicals — Restaurant in Merritt Island

For an old traditional coffee drinker like me, this was a very different place to try. I wasn’t sure what I was getting into and it took some explaining….but I may be a Java guy and a kava guy :)

The space itself is inviting—spacious seating, a breezy outdoor deck, and even a few cozy corners if you want to chill solo or with a group. Clean restrooms, strong Wi‑Fi, and parking make it a convenient hangout spot. They also host fun events like bingo, poker nights, and craft evenings, so there’s always something going on.
