Stopped at Bobby's on a Sunday for a bite around 2pm. The ambiance was casual and the place looked, I'm assuming, just how it must have in the 1970s. The lounge, located in a separate room, was standing room only. The average age of the crowd was in their mid-60s or 70s, which is likely more typical of Vero Beach than Bobby's in general. We ordered a few things to try including a fried grouper sandwich, a cheeseburger and an order of ribs off the appetizer menu. The grouper was lacking in flavor, but was hot and fresh. The ribs were "fall off the bone" and actually decent. The burger was probably the best of the 3, it wasn't bad at all. Service was fast and she was pleasant. We didn't have to ask twice for anything. One thing I will note, the men's room was dirty, similar to a dive bar's bathroom. Maybe because the place is old and in need of an update but it made me wonder if other parts of the establishment were unclean. read more

Quite a find. Looks from the outside a little rundown as part of beach rental complex. But inside very smart golf oriented modern wood booths with outside options. Strangely we tried to go to a nearby restaurant that closed at 2 pm for lunch. The hostess there recommended Bobbie's and as they say a person in the trade recommending somewhere is a good sign. Apparently famous for French dip - I tried it and nothing special but ok and hit the spot. My wife had blackened Salmon which was large and she could not stop overeating it. They are also renown for fresh fish so not surprisingly the Salmon was first class. Separately there is a bar that was full but strangely they had no fraught beer available in the restaurant. Service attentive and would go back again if the opportunity presents between 2 and 5 and could not get into other place. read more

It's been said that a bar is only as good as the bartender and boy oh boy does Bobby's have an incredible daytime bartender! We happened in looking for a drink and found two seats at the bar. Kristy asked what we wanted and served it in chilled glasses with speed that was remarkable. At one point I asked if we were the only non-local or not regulars - after a quick look she confirmed it! But we didn't feel like we were intruding so yay! We decided to go for lunch the next day and, although the bar was crowded, Kristy put her traffic control hat on and after a short wait we had seats. The food - omg - we had deli sandwiches that were a couple of the best ever! Mine was a pastrami melt on rye with Swiss cheese and spicy mustard, absolutely melt in your mouth. Wayne had the NY Reuben and almost moaned eating it - seriously wayyyy good. read more

This place is such a throwback. The server was so nice, short staffed. The food was decent, no complains. The conch fritters were really good! The place was pretty quiet and so 90s classic decor. read more

Great little pit stop bar with well recommended food. Just ordered the grouper, fries and a cold beer. Can't beat that.

We came here for dinner because most restaurants in Vero Beach closed early which was shocking. The steaks were pretty good but the sandwich I got was absolutely awful. No flavor, nothing in it except meat between the bread. What kind of disgusting sandwich is that ? The sweet fries were great but I think they need to take that sandwich off their menu. I wouldn't recommend anyone to order it. read more

This spot is a local landmark and today you witnessed firsthand what the business will be like as Vero transitions back into "in season ". The place was hopping. The staff is wonderful, seasoned, with little turnover. It's comfort food, augmented daily with the day's fresh catch. You're just off the water and the bar, which is effectively a separate room, is a real highlight. read more

This is a longgg time Vero Beach spot. We met friends who were staying at Reef Ocean Beach Resort from out of town. Bobby's is attached. We had the French Dip, which is a signature dish. It was delicious. Potato salad reminds me of my Mother in law's, which was yummy. Service was excellent, thank you Diane! Space is clean. Market price for chicken wings which was hard to wrap our heads around?! Remember when they were 5 cents each!? I do. :)) Thank you Bobby's! You can trust me, I was in the business! ;D read more

Well we finally made it and could sit at the bar. Definitely a go to spot for the St. John's Island crowd. Drinks are on the pricier side but food at bar is reasonable and the Bobby's Burger for $16 was well worth it. read more

Came here for dinner after hearing good things about Bobby's from friends. They were spot on! The ambience is very clean and dimly lit but still light enough for everyone to see each other and the noise was not too loud I was able to hear what my party had to say. Our waitress Julie was great and super friendly. Food was delicious I had the french onion soup and I have to say it's one of the best one I ever had. As for the main event, the primer rib; I had mine cooked medium rare and had the outer layer seared (per their recommendation) and my goodness it was wonderful! Perfect!. So juicy and every bite was a delicious as the last one. I am glad I got to experience a local favorite and my experience was phenomenal. If you are in Vero Beach and one to try a local favorite this is one that I highly recommend. read more

A mazing locals know quality and service. Shhh it's a secret don't tell everyone the food and drinks are amazing!!

Prime rib was not even a prime rib cut . When sent back to kitchen was told "that's prime rib but just a different cut" medium rare was cooked medium well . The bathroom smelled so bad of old urine I dry heaved all the way out . Will never go again . If the bathroom is that dirty I can imagine the kitchen . If you go definitely go in the bathroom before you decide to order food . read more

Although there was a wait, we were seated in less time than expected. Friendly and attentive wait staff. Unfortunately, the prime rib was tough. No Au Jus. But a lovely restaurant. read more

I loved the caring service very old school . The look was also old school comfortable. My prime rib was very tasty but at the same time it was very tough! I even couldn't chew a few pieces. My partner ordered fish . The piece was very small . Our bill was over 100$ I strongly believe it was not worth the price. We'll both have a fish sandwich and a hamburger next time. read more

It use to be one of our favorites to go and get a great lunch/dinner when we visit. This Easter Sunday was the last time we will ever go. They never even reached out to apologize. Comping the meal and apologizing should go hand and hand. The waitress said "it's supposed to look like this". No, it's not. read more

Had a great lunch over at Bobby's on Ocean Drive. Sat at the bar, was certainly taken care of. The place is pretty dated on the inside, and to be honest, the crowd matches the timeline Anyway, the food was fantastic. Highly recommend the prime rib wrap. Delicious. Would definitely return. read more

The food here is fairly good and the service is too. The fish is fresh as can be and the desserts are very good try the Mocha Ice cream Pie, it's delicious. It's not cheap but I don't eat in garbage can restaurants but the "juice is worth the squeeze". read more

Went for lunch, after trying to get in for dinner a couple times. (Seems as if it's a popular place with the BP.) It's decorated in an old school golf club including artwork of different golf course features. The menu was comprehensive and not crowded. We started with homemade mozzarella sticks that were fabulous! I had a reuben with potato salad; she had the prime rib wrap and sweet potato fries. The food was generously portioned and delicious! Service was pleasant, efficient, and timely! We both were glad to have had the opportunity for lunch here. read more

This was our first visit at Bobby's. We were with friends and 6 meant an automatic 20% tip. The waitress was friendly and accommodating. She answered any questions we had. The food was good but we only had burgers and other sandwich things. The sandwiches were enormous. The fries and other sides were good. We had a table for six in a corner so it was quiet. A little pricey for sandwiches but worth it! read more

I love this place! The service is superb and no matter what I order it comes out perfectly. On my last visit I had the turkey Reuben with sweet potato fries and my husband had a club sandwich. We left with half our sandwiches because they were so satisfying delicious. The turkey on both of our sandwiches was real turkey and sliced perfectly. Bravo, Bobby's! read more

Located merely a building away from Holiday Inn on the beach, is Bobby's Restaurant and Lounge. It's a really popular place and since it doesn't take reservations, be prepared for long waits. It has both inside and outside dining but at the moment, due to understaffing, the outside is closed. My partner had their filet which was a large beautiful cut of meat perfectly prepared the way he ordered it. But I think I had the star of Bobby's menu choices with a perfectly roasted and lightly grill seared 12oz prime rib. It was exceptionally tender and full of good meat flavor. I didn't even need the enhancements of the accompanying au jus. read more

We have been coming here for years, family owned time share since 1977 at Reef Ocean Resort, Bobby's restaurant is right on site, always look forward to and going there especially our first night arriving at Vero Beach, Service was great ! We ordered lamb, med rare came out very rare, had to send back to get cooked some more, which was ok ,lamb usually is amazing alone does not need a breaded seasoning on it , took away from the lamb, not the best lamb we have ever had, prime rib was tough also, we went with thoughts of an amazing burger, we should have stuck to our first thoughts. Will return for Burger only! read more

Very bad food! Beef sandwich was cold no flavor. The steak tidbits over garlic toast was more like canned meat on a split hotdog roll and the French onion soup was cold and tasted like water with season all or some type of low sodium flavoring. Do not eat here!! read more

Bobby's is still the place for pub food in a relaxing, cozy space. Bring a hearty appetite along with you, you'll need one! Bobby's was at one point in time the go-to restaurant for Tommy Lasorda when the Los Angeles Dodgers used to conduct spring training. The Dodgers left Vero several years ago but you can still see traces of their presence on the walls at Bobby's. Well worth a trip... and don't forget to bring your appetite! read more

Great food and looked real clean and the only thing is it takes a while to get in but it's worth it.
