My husband and I decided to go to The Beach Bucket for breakfast. Great decision! We were seated on the patio, oceanfront listening to the sound of the waves. Jose our server was super nice and friendly. He brought my husband his coffee and my water. My husband ordered the chorizo omelette and I ordered the early bird which was scrambled eggs, sausage links, sliced tomatoes with wheat toast. My husband liked his omelette but said chorizo could have been spicier, he also had home fries with wheat toast. My eggs were good and the sausage was good too. The best part of our breakfast was the service and our view!!

Our server Cody was fantastic and the view was just as great. It was 40 degrees out, so I didn't take any pictures of the food. I had a poinsettia cocktail and my husband had a painkiller. They were both great. The Ahi tuna wrap was fresh and delicious. The caesar salad was surprisingly good. The shrimp panini was ok; my husband liked it better than I did. Fries were great. We would be back! Vibes were great on the patio!

Great food and the server was very polite and friendly. Quick service and the food was amazing and very fresh. Great view.

Shrimp Basket and Sweet Potato Fries with a Piña Colada.

A Memorable The Beach Bucket in Ormond Beach is my go-to spot for a taste of sunshine and delicious food. I recently visited twice in one week--and trust me, that was no accident! The first time was to catch up with a friend and soak in the amazing beach view, which is always a treat. The second time, I brought my sisters, and it was the perfect end to a fun beach day. Both times, I ordered the same thing because when something is this good, you stick with it: the shrimp basket with sweet potato fries. They came out hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. This place has never disappointed me; the food is just as tasty and fresh as I remember. My sisters loved their meals too--one had the chicken and mozzarella panini, and the other had the chicken wings. They both said their food was fantastic! Throw in a perfect piña colada--which was delicious and refreshing after a long day at the beach--for myself and a great view, and you have the recipe for an amazing afternoon. The Beach Bucket is the perfect place to make some happy memories with great food. I can't wait to go back again soon, Beach Bucket!

A breakfast lunch dinner café simple items on the beach You can enjoy sunrise or sunset. They have a whole bunch of different options that are super affordable. We came for breakfast on the specific day and we got two breakfasts and wanted to go for our kid and it was less than 50 bucks for beach pricing. That's relatively great. A casual place that is very busy usually it's first come first serve see yourself but it seems like they've changed it to have a host seat guest We enjoyed our breakfast. The service was decent nothing to complain about.

This place never disappoints. Greta prices for being right on the beach with beautiful views. Drinks are good, strong, and they have $2 Jell-O shots which is fun. Food: it's pretty decent and fairly priced. We've gotten basic items there and it wasn't terrible but satisfying. We normally have gotten appetizers. Ambiance: perfect spot on the beach Service: staff are always super nice and accommodating. It's a very laid back place and the servers are quick and super nice. We love coming here.

Another 4.5 for The Beach Bucket. Excellent wings, excellent service, excellent views, excellent beers. An absolute go to spot in Ormond for me. Super chill spot, I love it.

Bbq burger and we added slaw

Beautiful spot right on the beach. We grabbed a picnic style table closest to the beach. It was lovely to sit and watch the water and people. We got a couple margaritas which were strong and delicious the food was pretty decent as well. We got a burger and a chicken sandwich. Service was very friendly and helpful.

Key lime and strawberry shortcake blended drinks
Lucy N.

This place came highly recommended from our friends when they heard we were headed to Daytona beach! We stopped by even though it was a cold day so ended up grabbing a drink indoors. The keylime drink was SO good and my friend loved her strawberry shortcake drink too. The atmosphere inside wasn't anything to write home about, but obviously it's much better when it's a nice day out beachside. Our server Katherine was fantastic. She knows her stuff and made it a great experience for us. Unfortunately, the (I think) owner of the place went on Facebook live inside showing all the customers when we were there and it just seemed like it was invading our privacy in a way as he was "asking" if we wanted to be on camera after the camera was already pointed in our direction. He went table to table having everyone wave. It just seemed a little tacky. I'd recommend a different social media marketing strategy.

Outdoor patio. Doesn't get more beachfront than this!
Melinda K.

Fish Tacos and drinks were amazing! Super laid back and right on the beach. With plenty of umbrellas for shade and a nice breeze. Will definitely back

Smoked Fish Dip, they kindly accommodated my request for celery along with the chips.

Extremely casual restaurant right on the Atlantic Ocean. A lot of seafood options. We decided to do appetizers. Service was excellent, the staff work together to make sure you're taken care of. Very accommodating. Great prices, especially on drinks.

Fun restaurant right off the beach. Three tier area so views great. Went for dinner and breakfast next morning. Dinner: Apps of corn fritters and onion rings were very good. Nice portions Entrees of shrimp basket & tuna melt were delicious. Only down side - Pepsi products! Breakfast: Nice big mug go coffee. Original eggs benedict were fine. Needed thicker hollandaise sauce. The nice two by two eggs and bacon with toast was good! Cody did a great job as server.

Hi! I've been once before and remember the stairs by the beach. The profile says wheelchair accessible - where do you enter with a wheelchair? Is there a bathroom you can reach with a wheelchair too? Thanks!

You can enter from the Ocean East south side parking lot or from the beach access parking lot in a wheelchair. Yes, you can access the bathrooms. You can go directly to the lower level of the patio from the parking lot in a wheelchair, or go inside…

In addition to the chalkboard, there's now a paper menu with Daily Breakfast + Lunch Specials! The prices are still great, but the food selections and quality are even better! The Rosy Red potatoes are something different than the usual hash browns or home fries. The biscuits are truly an amazing thing worth the trip alone. I took a slice of the lemon mascarpone layer cake home with me and was floored how PERFECTLY delicious it was! (It's frightening because if it's on the menu when I go, I will now have to get one to go EVERY time.) :-P Always a great place for those comfort foods done right!

The outside is kinda bland as is the strip mall it's located in but the magic is inside, this cafe is very unassuming but very clean and comfortable. The service was excellent, the staff here is really friendly and attentive you'll never have to worry about your coffee cup going empty and by the way the coffee is outstanding. I ordered two eggs over medium, bacon, grits and toast - the food arrived fast and it was all cooked perfect. I think arriving early was a good choice because the customers continued to fill this place as time passed but even with the cafe filling up the service remained attentive. The prices are very reasonable and all the food was delicious and a great value I can see why people flock here. If I have one regret it's that I didn't try the biscuits but I won't make that mistake again- hope to return soon..

This morning my husband and I were going out for breakfast, I suggested Heffer's Kountry Cafe,…read morereviews were good and we like trying new places. When we walked in, we were told to sit anywhere, it was only 40° this morning, so we decided to sit at a table away from the door. We were greeted and the young man was friendly. My husband had coffee and I had ice water. I did notice that if was loud inside as far as people talking loudly across the dining room from tables. Our server took our order my husband ordered 2 eggs, sausage gravy and biscuits with bacon. I ordered an egg over easy with hash browns, 2 sausage links and wheat toast. Our food was served quickly and we thought everything was going good. But then a SUV pulls up outside and apparently Tuesday morning is when they get their delivery. They propped open the door with all the cold air coming in, everyone except the cook that was working there stopped what they were doing and started to unloaded their order. Never once were we asked if we needed anything. My husband was almost hit in the back of his head with a big box of snack size Lays potato chips. Honestly, that was very unprofessional if they do this every Tuesday morning, they are only opened until 2 PM. They have all afternoon to have an order delivered or come in early before the restaurant opens to have it delivered. You do not go back-and-forth through a restaurant ignoring your customers because you have a delivery. Besides that... aren't most deliveries brought in through the back door not the front. We waited for our check but never came so we stood at the register until we could pay our bill. The restaurant was nicely decorated for St. Patrick's Day but maybe be more considerate of your customers.

There's not a ton of space, which I'm sure makes the rush brunch worse. Facilities were to clean and well maintained, well decorated as well. Our server Ashley was friendly and great. The food was delicious! My fiance and I both got veggie omelettes, he was able to add bacon to his and sub the potatoes for a fruit cup. We got an English muffin and wheat toast. Their wheat toast was massive and hearty, with seeds on the crust. I loved it! Veggie omelettes are always a good test of a chefs skills as they can be super wet from the high water content in veggies. Ours were cooked perfectly, no soppy mess and the veggies tasted crisp and fresh. I don't know if this is a downside, but the menu claimed the omelettes were 4 eggs, but it sure felt like 6 or 7! It was massive! The fruit cup didn't have a bunch of copout fruit in it, it came with really fresh strawberries, bananas and blackberries along with cantaloupe and pineapple. The only truly negative thing I noticed was the jam came in a small plastic cup and when I tasted the jam, it tasted like the plastic, so I couldn't eat it. Overall this is a great breakfast spot that rivals the sitting veterans on the area (first watch, kekes). Give it a go, but be wary of busy rush hours!

Did you know Sun n Sand has been in its location for 6 years?…read more Yes, 6 years. I've lived on this side of the beach for 15 years and have never noticed it. WOW, I was told that so many people tell them this. So, now you are going to know. The owners are Cheryl and Chris. I met Cheryl through a friend and that's when she told me about her place. Lovely place. Doesn't look big from the outside but it is a lot bigger to hold many groups of six ? Or more? The servers are so sweet and friendly. I talked with Nina (and I feel bad I didn't ask the other server's name) But, they worked well together with the kitchen. Now, I'm a new insulin diabetic (Yah me) And I'm still trying to figure out what to eat. So, I had a sausage and tomato omelette (Of course I didn't get a picture of my food) When you're hungry you forget to snap a shot. But, I do have very nice pictures of the place. Now, as I said. It is hard to find this lovely place. I assume everyone knows Lenny's pizza in OBS. Well in my pictures you will see exactly where they are Make sure you do a stop in next time you're hungry.
