    Screwdriver and French dip
    Eve K.

    Stellar dive bar with delicious French dips and fresh squeezed juices. 4.5 stars Food: 4.5 Atmosphere: 5 Service: 5 Cost to worth it rating: 4 (sandwiches $9.50, well drinks ~$5) OpenTable-able: no reservations Return worthiness: yes Highlights: - Fresh juice: unexpected and delicious screwdriver--the OJ was amazing. - French dip: warm toasty roll with a bunch of meat inside and cheese melted on top. Jus was on point though a tad bit salty. Came with a pickle spear. 4.5 stars - Italian: my friend enjoyed hers. 4 stars - Service: was greeted warmly when we arrived and they checked on us regularly throughout the visit. - Large space: big bar in the middle, pool tables on the side, and a large outdoor area - Lots of TVs: good for sports watching - Kids til 7pm if you want to bring them to enjoy a sandwich, hot dog, or pizza. Lowlights: - Could lose track of time and do some damage here. Fantastic dive bar--I'll be back for sure. Came for lunch so didn't get to stay long, but would like to come one night for more fun.

    The owner was a super informative local. He was highly knowledgeable and offered a huge beer…read morevariety.

    **INITIAL REVIEW**…read more Apparently, the Yelp Skynet a.k.a. the AI that green or red flags reviews, doesn't like the actual name of this pub despite the fact it is the pub's name. Ergo, I will use the abbreviation VI for the remainder of this review. Besides that, you really can't go wrong going to any of the pubs in Historic Cocoa Village. VI is one of the pubs on the eastern side of the Village, in between the famous Fat Donkey's Ice Cream and the furthest east pub in the village, Ryan's. Appearance-wise, the outside fits primarily with the building, but there are some minute details that give it its own personality, primarily around its name. There is also a section of the road and sidewalk that have been garrisoned for VI as outdoor seating and games such as bean bag toss. Indoors, it is definitely your kinda pub that many of the patrons are friends. The right side (East) have long tables with many pub and drinking games such as Hook & Ring and Shut The Box. There is a bookshelf filled to the brim with board games in case patrons prefer traditional or childhood classics. The left side (West) is the "Patio," a room that is decorated by numerous plants, neon lighting, widker and a black-and-white checkerboard floor. Finally, the middle of the pub is the actual bar, in the form of an L-shape serving a nice arrangement of beers from many breweries, cideries, distilleries, and meaderies across the United States. I had the Kentucky Vanilla Barrel Cream Ale by Lexington Brewing and Distilling Co. Other beer selections I would recommend include the Pineapple Cider by the famous Carib Brewing Co. and the Mango Cart by Golden Road Brewing. Personal note on the latter: Mango Carts, well for me, only taste good when straight from the tap. Cans are not good. And the food, it is minimal, but boy does VI know how to tug at my heartstrings as everything they have features, or could feature, cheese. They have pretzels with cheese, pickles with cheese, and my personal favorite, grilled cheese sandwiches. And for the more sophisticated patron, they have numerous choices in charcuterie boards, too. I will also state the drink prices are a bit on the high side compared to some other places I been to. And there are two restrooms that are single-serving and gender-specific. I don't believe the latter has to be gender-specific because they are single-serving. The barn doors are an interesting choice because they are not very good at blocking sound. I guess that is why VI blasts the music so nobody can hear the flatulence. Speaking of music, VI does have a small corner stage for small acts, possibly singular, to perform. Unless there is a pull-out large stage for outdoor performances, I don't see big bands, per se in higher number of members, performing here unless they can all jam in that tight-spaced stage. Ultimately, I am going to give VI three-out-of-five stars for this review. They are a solid pub that has all the fixin's of a good bar to go to. Maybe it is safe to say they really don't stand out too much, especially amongst the more unique bars in Historic Cocoa Village. But still, a good place to have a drink with friends with that "Everybody knows your name" kinda vibe.

    WOW Amazing service!!! Family run, beautiful design AND interior experience and not to mention,…read moreamazing food!! Which came out so fast! Bananas foster Jiggly pancake at brunch is a must try! They also own a small coffee/matcha/snack spot a couple doors down!!! You can bring your receipt for 10% off. This spot is a must-try!!

    5-Stars - We'll be back!…read more We just got off a 7 day Disney cruise and had a couple days in Cocoa Beach to explore before flying home. Our family was craving some Japanese food and we found Koko Japanese Pub on Yelp. So glad we found this place. It was only a quick 10 minute drive from our hotel. We loved all the Japanese fusion dishes! If you are looking for a legit Japanese restaurant in Cocoa Beach we definitely recommend this place. The foie gras, crab and eel sushi roll was tasty and delicious. We loved the Wagyu skewers, Hamachi Kama (chili sauce flavor), Nasi Goreng and Shio Ramen. The ramen was the best comfort food and we ended getting two bowls. Our son had passed out from a long day at the beach and the staff there was kind enough to give us one of their booth tables. Our son was able to nap a bit in the booth before waking up when the food arrived. Thanks for all the awesome staff and servers who took such good care of us. Much appreciated! We also enjoyed meeting and chatting with Chef Daniel the owner of Koko Japanese Pub. He's a great guy and has spent time honing his chef skills at amazing restaurant all over the country. His love and passion for Japanese culture and food shows in his dishes! Thanks for sharing such a delicious oak wood cask Japanese sake with us. Cheers! We'll definitely come back the next time we're in Cocoa Beach.

    I went with a friend to Coaster's Cocoa Beach. Happy Saint Patrick's day!…read moreThey were very busy. They were serving a limited menu with food and drink specials for the day. They had the traditional Irish fare. My friend ordered the Ruben sandwich with sweet potato fries. She commented on how much corned beef in the Sandwich and how delicious the fries were. I ordered the corned beef and cabbage. Only $20.00. I received at least a half pound of very lean corned beef, red potatoes, carrots and steamed cabbage. A very generous serving. The corned beef was really lean , moist, tender, and very flavorful. What a great meal. They had traditional Irish music. Great atmosphere for the holiday. We had a great time.

    Man I really wanted to like this place but I just couldn't!!…read more It is a really mundane place over all. The ambiance is that of every other bar, which in itself isn't bad but it is when you don't do anything to really stand out. I ordered the southern burger and their special of deviled eggs. The deviled eggs were really good but only 6 half eggs was $12. Way overpriced in my opinion. The burger looked really good but for $22 for the burger and the fries, it better be top notch. Burger came out over done, with the entire bottom bun completely soaked in juice. It basically fell apart by the end of the meal. I will say the fries were really good but for $45 with a tip FOR ONE PERSON this place is way over priced for what you get. I also thought my service was just okay as well. Wouldn't recommend this place and won't be back.
