Coconuts on the Beach Review

We had lunch at Coconuts on the Beach on Cocoa Beach.

Coconuts on the Beach is literally right on the beach. If you step off the deck we were on you were walking on sand. There was a constant flow of people heading to and from the beach passing by the deck. The restaurant offers showers along the side of the building, so, it was a popular stop for people washing off sand before heading back to their car.

 At first it was a little odd to see a waitress in a bikini head out to the beach to deliver drinks, and the security guard (bouncer) walking around in a bathing suit... but we were really on the beach. And people were coming up on the deck to order a drink at the bar or a snack and then heading right back out to the ocean.

 The beach in front of our condo is, for the most part, deserted. There is rarely anyone one it. So, it was a departure for us to see all the people on Cocoa Beach It reminded me of Myrtle Beach in South Carolina with wall to wall people.

It was lunch, so, we ordered fairly tame food. I ordered a grilled chicken Caesar salad, my wife ordered the chicken Caesar wrap, and the boys had hamburgers and fries. Everything arrived quickly and was very good.

It was ninety-five degrees in the afternoon, and even with the slight ocean breeze the heat was oppressive. My oldest son abandoned us to go inside the restaurant where it was air conditioned.  We stayed outside and enjoyed the beach scenes before finally leaving.

I thought Coconuts on the Beach was excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to return. I might suggest returning on a slightly cooler day, but return nonetheless.
