**INITIAL REVIEW**…read more It is only fitting that I check out another breakfast/brunch place with the iconic American breakfast staple "biscuit" mentioned in their name. As for such locales within the Space Coast, this is the third one (off the top of my head) I have had the pleasure to dine in, right after "Oh" and "Twisted." So was Grumpy's Biscuits (which I will shorthand simply to Grumpy's for the remainder of this review) just another fine establishment to add to other fine breakfast estabishments here on the coast that shoots off rockets, or did they standout. I am happy to review that Grumpy's has enough subtlety to standout without smashing the competition. That is something I admire because I prefer options within harmony, Competition amongst competitors to improve one's self. Even though an address is provided, Grumpy's is located on Highland Ave., just north of the westbound part of Eau Gallie Blvd. within the EGAD. If it helps, it is right across the street from the EGAD Civic Center. First and foremost, the building Grumpy's is located in is an iconic landmard within the EGAD. Grumpy's shares the building with other businesses in which they occupy the southernmost business space, which is quite small with a small indoor eating area and a small outdoor patio with each table having individual umbrellas for shade or rain cover. It fits as Grumpy's is said in two phrases: "simple and trendy" and "cozy." The workers and owner are friendly and hospitable, and they assisted me in deciding on what to eat, which they have given each of their biscuits/sandwiches/etc. a female name. I chose "Lisa," a breakfast biscuit consisting of bacon, over easy egg, smoked gouda, mixed greens, and housemade balsamic glaze. Couple of notes about this amazing biscuit, the bacon were thick cut and candied. Truly amazing. And the balsamic glaze. Whatever their recipe is, it is amazing. I could definitely have that on many a meal. Yes, I know exactly how I wrote that! As for the coffee, I got an iced coffee which is premade and ready-to-serve. They use half-and-half and stevia in the raw. Ergo, the coffee was what I wanted. Finally, the restroom. Take note the "water closet" is outside in the hallway. Since the restaurant is small, it is a single-server. Fortunately, it was stocked and clean. There was also an "ambiance" of class, which is nice given the fact the restaurant is... well... small... and the restroom is probably shared with the other businesses, too. Ultimately, Grumpy's was an amazing initial visit and I look forward to visiting them again. Since this is the first and only time (so far) I have been here, I will give them four out of five stars. After a couple more visits, if they stay consistent, I will add their fifth star for consistency.

Now to be fair it was a to-go order so when I got to work it wasn't as fresh maybe as it should. Biscuit was good sized and tasty, a bit dry, sausage was very tasty and egg was half an omelette....not sure if there was cheese on it, maybe in the egg omelette and I just didn't see it or taste it. I would try it again, next time maybe add butter to the biscuit, a little less egg and cheese that is melted somewhere on it.

Seats about 10 at two bars. I had the dragon fruit bowl and it was very good. Not a big açaí bowl guy but it was a delicious almost guilty pleasure. It was tasty and crunchy and I liked the fresh fruit. The staff and owner were very understanding of my questions and the tv cycles photos of their offerings. Their portions are large and match the photos based on what the other folks ordered.

What's not to love?! The bartenders in here are always so warm and friendly. So even though we…read moredon't come in more than a couple times a year, we always feel like regulars. Just had beers at this visit, and they were ICE COLD! But last time we came we had the wings. Let me tell you! I used to own a bar in Dallas that legit had the best wings in town. Well - this is the only place in town that I feel could compete with what we used to make. SUPER crispy and amazing flavor. Not weird or chewy. Just spot on. I wish this spot could expand a little so it wasn't such a straight shot interior. It would be nice if there were more cozy spaces and corners to relax in for awhile. But that's my only complaint. You feel a little exposed at the bar, which makes it feel a little less neighborhood bar and a little more strip mall casual eatery. But it is what it is! If they ever get an opp to expand they should. Need to go back asap cuz now I'm craving those wings!

They don't have liquor, just beer and wine. Service was great, food came out fast. Knocked a star because the wings had a hint of fish flavor. They are either using the same coating pile to batter the fish as they do the chicken wings or their oil is very old and they cook tons of fish in it. Probably won't return here.

This was a good find for breakfast and they deliver precisely what is expected. This is basically a…read morebagel and sandwich shop located in a small (maybe four shops), unpretentious strip plaza on one of the main drags through town. It was not hard to find. The storefront is not anything special. However, the interior was quite nice though it was very small. There was capacity for perhaps 25 people or so inside and it was full when we visited on a Wednesday morning at about 10 AM. But there were also a couple of outside tables and we grabbed one of those to enjoy our food. In addition to bagels, they offered some enticing baked goods. Our grandson chose one of those items, a lovely, nice-sized cinnamon roll which he enjoyed very much. My wife and I both had the Breakfast Special "Eggle", which was an Egg, Meat and Cheese on a bagel. We chose bacon, though my wife skipped the cheese. My Everything bagel that I selected was particularly good. This was a great deal as the bagel was bundled with coffee for only $5. Overall, our expenditure for food, drink, tax and tip was about $20. This was a terrific deal by today's standards. The service here was excellent. The people working were efficient and quite friendly. If you are in the area and looking for a moderately-portioned cost-effective option compared to pricey hotel breakfasts, this is a pleasant choice. It's got a great local vibe with good food.

The staff was kind and the shop was fun. They had a huge, hand painted mural of a turtle on the wall and beautiful philadendron plants trailed along the ceiling. Definitely worth the trip.

The food for our larger party came out hot and fresh and pretty quickly! I thought the chicken cheesesteak was interesting. Definitely not what I'm used to in the Philly area, but still tasty nonetheless. The chicken tenders were perfectly crispy and the waffle fries were heaven. I love the casual seating outside and the slightly more elevated, brightly lit, indoor seating as well. The bathrooms were clean and well lit.

Seems like I can never say enough about this place! The owners care so much about their business…read moreand their customers, and that care has obviously been passed onto the staff. The customer service is always so friendly and fun. The patio is by far our favorite beachside patio. And the live music is SO GOOD! They mix it up and keep it fresh, so it's always guaranteed to entertain. We continue bringing all our out-of-town guests here, over and over - and T&T has become one of their favorite places, too! So glad this business and the owners care and invest in keeping it the best beachside bar!

great looking place, clean and nice. Ordered the lunch special, BLT & Clam Chowder. The BLT was…read morevery good. Tomato was tasty, the bacon perfect, and the Rye bread just added to the sandwitch. Now the clam chowder is another thing. It was lacking seasonings, and the clams really chewy, and vegtables mixed (some over cooked, others under cooked). Adding some salt and pepper made it several times better, but honestly proper seasoning should be done while preperation of food with additional seasonings only needed in small doses. Overall the staff was extremely freindly and helpful, and service was great. The overall value was good. I would go again and try some of the other items on the menu.

My wife had one of their Bennies. She loved it too. Next time we are in the area, we will try them for lunch.

Banana River Cafe is proof that the smell of bacon can make you forgive almost anything…read more First, a fun fact: they're operated by a CIA graduate. No, not that CIA. The Culinary Institute of America. Our daughter actually graduated from their Baking & Pastry program in San Antonio, so we were already inclined to give the place a try. But I digress. The moment you walk in, the smell of bacon smacks you right in the face. In the best possible way. So. Dang. Good. We stopped in on a busy Sunday afternoon. The dining room was hopping. A few tables could have been bussed a little quicker, my chair needed a quick swipe-down before I sat, and there were a few chips hanging out on the floor. Normally I'd notice those things more, but then the bacon smell hit again and suddenly none of it seemed quite as important. I ordered two perfectly cooked over-medium eggs, sliced tomatoes (instead of potatoes), and a biscuit. I chose the biscuit over toast or an English muffin with absolutely no intention of eating it. My plan was to take it home for one of the kids. Then I took one bite. Friends, this was THE best biscuit I have ever eaten in my entire life. I don't throw around statements like that lightly. If you visit Banana River Cafe and order absolutely nothing else, order the biscuits. They deserve their own Yelp page. My husband got what I think was called the Power Bowl--a delicious-looking pile of rice, beans, carnitas, and all the ingredients that make a great burrito bowl. Our son absolutely housed his French toast. Our daughter ordered the Rosemary Chicken Salad Wrap with pasta salad. I sampled the chicken salad. It had a whisper of rosemary. A polite suggestion of rosemary. A rosemary cameo appearance. If you're going to call it Rosemary Chicken Salad, I'd personally vote for a little more rosemary. My daughter loved it, though. She also loved the pasta salad but wasn't a fan of the Parmesan sprinkled on top. If Parmesan must be involved, let's keep it to the kind that comes from a block and not the green plastic shaker. Just my two cents. The staff was friendly, service was great, and soda refills appeared before we even had to ask. I also loved the local artwork displayed throughout the restaurant. Every piece has a price tag, so if something catches your eye, you can literally take it home with you. Great food, great service, incredible biscuits, and enough bacon aroma to improve your mood instantly. We'll definitely be back.

There was a very large party seated outside so our order did take a bit to arrive but it was hot and fresh. I ordered their french toast with strawberries and mascarpone. There was an option to add candied pecans and that was an amazing addition to this breakfast. It was presented like a sandwich and the mascarpone middle with the strawberries was the perfect sweet! There is a little dessert display inside and we bought their caramel cheesecake. It was incredible! Also, the bathroom was clean and had artwork, there was also a little mouthwash station! I definitely will come back for brunch when in the area.

The oysters looked so good, and the smoked fish dip? Huge chunks of fish, absolutely packed with flavor. So. Dang. Delicious. We came for a snack and left plotting our next visit. Highly recommend!

I've given this place a handful of chances over the past year, and somehow every visit is worse…read morethan the last. Honestly, that level of consistency deserves recognition. I'd love to review the food, but I've never actually made it that far. The "bartenders" seem to operate under the impression that customers are an unfortunate side effect of working in a bar. I spent a decade behind the stick myself, so I understand bad shifts, shitty customers, being slammed, and wanting to throw a bar rag at someone. But these people appear genuinely offended that you had the audacity to walk in, sit down, and attempt to give them money. Management might want to consider a controlled burn followed by a complete rebuild. Seriously, if your resting facial expression says, "I fucking hate you and everything about this place," maybe hospitality isn't your calling. There are plenty of careers where interacting with humans is optional. And spare me the "restaurant business is tough" excuse. Sandbar manages to employ people who don't look like they're serving a prison sentence. Long Doggers somehow finds employees capable of making eye contact without conveying pure contempt. So apparently it can be done. At this point, I have no idea if the food here is amazing, terrible, or prepared by a Michelin-starred raccoon in the back. I'll probably never know, because I can't survive the first line of defense long enough to order it. Maybe management should stop worrying about getting people through the door and start asking why the people behind the bar seem so pissed off that they came.
