Such a fun bar because the bartender is awesome and silly. There's some fun shots here and one was named after the bartender which included so many ingredients that I think only he can make his shot. Nearby customers we're also fun to hang out with. Don't mind the heavy death metal band with their audience dressed in only all-black dress code in the back of the lounge, past the glass door. Such a different mix than the lounge. Was surprised because I wasn't expecting that from this tropical decor but had a good laugh read more

Cute little restaurant right off the main road, just a short walk to the beach. Lived the colorful neon vibes in here, and the updated aesthetic. Tried their nachos and the bucket special Sexo Wb La Playa. Very tasty - little sweet for me though! The service was great and the bartenders were upbeat and friendly. Would certainly return here for the bottomless mimosas and try their tacos! read more

Bartenders were friendly & attentive. They gave me recommendations. The manager was hands on & she recommended the rum bum, which was delicious. They were well staffed. There is plenty of bar seating. They also have an outside area. They had a dj last night. The vibe was fun & the patrons were nice. The bathroom is unisex & it was clean. The only reason I'm not giving a five bc I wasn't feeling the food menu. It's definitely a nice spot to chill & get tasty drinks with good music, recommended. read more

Nice little drink spot. The DJ was awesome and kept the vibe chilling. The waitresses were fast, friendly, and helpful. The Hawaiian pizza was wonderful and had a great sauce on it. Only downer here was the drink prices...even during a half price "happy hour" the $14/22 drinks were $7 & $14 which is normal price range for Florida. Hour and half here and my bill was $120 during half price drink hours...wowzers. I'll return for more music and vibes, but only during happy hour prices. read more

Really chill vibes!! We came for snacks... ordered a pizza (yum) and the shrimp ceviche (a big bummer). The chips were reallyyyyy stale and salty. Definitely were old chips, probably made the previous day :/ and the ceviche wasn't ceviche at all. Tasted like chopped up shrimp cocktail with some avocado and unripe mango. Definitely edible!! Just not really citrusy or yummy. The pizza was AMAZING!! And the staff made the whole experience :) really kind people. Will definitely come back for the pizza and the vibes!! read more

The good: the aesthetic of the restaurant The bad: $9 chips and guac, 2 small plastic cup of store bought guac and a tiny platter of chips. Everything comes out in small paper trays like a take away food truck but when the dishes are a whopping $16-$20 you'd expect better portions and presentation. Apparently they have good pizza but was not there for pizza. Tried the poke bowls and would say they were 5/10. Not sure how fresh the tuna was but it was a decent bowl. Not quite $16 worth but still filled me up. Lots of promise because of the cool building and location but needs a lot of work to live up to potential of a legitimate dinner spot. Would only recommend a pop in for a drink at this point. read more

It was a very hot day, and the draft beer wasn't quite as cold as I prefer, but that's not unusual for outdoor taps, so it didn't take away from the experience. The only real downside is the parking. It's street parking only, and it's very limited. We found a spot with a 90‑minute limit, and our waitress let us know they're strict about enforcing it. By the time you factor in walking to and from the restaurant, it doesn't leave as much time as we would've liked to hang out and enjoy the atmosphere. Fortunately for us, a wicked storm was rolling in just as we were leaving, so the timing worked out. Overall, we enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to going back, hopefully with better parking luck next time.

We were immediately greeted by both the hostess and bartender, and they were very friendly. We were seated right away and our drink orders were taken quickly. It took us a few minutes to go through the menu since we weren't familiar with the restaurant, and there are quite a few items to choose from. We ordered the "Crack Mac Snack" (macaroni and cheese) and added pulled pork and the biscuit bread. The food came out quickly, and we were not disappointed. The biscuit bread was absolutely amazing, rich, soft, and delicious (maybe a little too generous with the butter on top, but still delicious). It's a thick, hearty piece, about two inches high and roughly four inches square. The mac and cheese was a generous portion and easily enough to share, and it was really good. The homemade BBQ sauce was also a highlight. The only slight miss was my husband's Coke, which wasn't very sweet, possibly a calibration issue with the machine. Overall, this is definitely a spot worth trying if you're in Cocoa Beach and want something different. There's a lot on the menu, and we'll definitely be back.

As the sun lowers toward the horizon, warm golden light reflects off the water and dances across polished wooden tables. The sound of waves blends with relaxed music, creating a rhythm that slows your heartbeat and clears your mind. Soft sand stretches right up to the open-air patio, where guests walk barefoot, leaving footprints that disappear with the tide. Palm trees sway gently overhead, their shadows moving across lantern-lit cabanas. The scent of salt air mixes with grilled seafood, citrus, and fresh mint from handcrafted drinks served ice-cold in frosted glasses. Friendly bartenders greet everyone with genuine smiles, remembering names and favorite orders. Laughter carries easily across the deck, blending with the clink of glasses and distant seagulls. As night settles in, string lights glow like stars above the bar, and a cool breeze replaces the heat of the day. Conversations deepen, music softens, and the ocean becomes a dark, endless backdrop. It is more than a bar--it is a place where time slows, worries fade, and every sunset feels unforgettable.

On the hunt for the perfect Sunday Funday spot? Look no further...The Salty Fox is it. We came…read morespecifically craving Bloody Marys, and they absolutely did not disappoint. They even offer unlimited mimosas, which is always a win. This is definitely a great place to shoot some pool, watch Sunday football, and relax with friends. The atmosphere is laid-back, welcoming, and full of good vibes. The Bloody Mary experience alone is worth the visit. You get to choose from a variety of toppings, and Devin went above and beyond to make ours next-level. Hands down, it was the best Bloody Mary I've ever had. It was basically lunch on top of a drink. My best friend and I were living our best lives and enjoying every sip. Devin was such an awesome bartender that he even convinced us to add mimosas to the mix (no regrets!). We had such a great Sunday here and honestly could've stayed all day. If you're looking for a chill spot with great drinks, friendly service, and an unbeatable Sunday vibe, The Salty Fox is the place to be.

Love it! Had a great time on our first visit here. I've heard people call it a dive bar, but... if…read moreit is it's a 5 star dive bar! They had a surprisingly excellent selection of liquors, including some tequilas we'd not had a chance to sample yet. Bartender was friendly but did not intrude. LOVED the interior, and they had a banging music selection going the day we were there. We didn't get to try any food, but definitely going to when we return.

It's a mix between Hispanic day of the dead meets pirate vibes. The drinks are amazing. We had an old-fashioned and a preacher mule. They were so good. We forgot to take a picture! The old-fashioned is not too strong tasting. It has a nice balance with the orange so it is very smooth! The food here is phenomenal! We started with the half dozen of Rae oysters and they were very fresh and had everything that you needed with it. They were amazing! The entrées that we ordered were fish and chips and Aji tuna tacos both came with french fries and the french fries were super crunchy and extremely fresh and delicious! The fish and chips fish was evenly breaded, and the fish was very light and did not taste fishy at all! The Aji tuna tacos had a little punch of what tasted like wasabi, they were amazing! Thank you, Kim for the amazing service we had a great time here! Highly Recommend!

Unique vibe! The art and multiple lightings create a beautiful background. The menus were made from…read morevinyl covers, a fun aesthetic!Definitely a memorable spot to bring a group. Menu isn't too cluttered, won't be difficult making a decision. Fish and chips were excellent. Airy, light, and the moist fish easily drew apart. A bit pricy and it took quite some time to receive food. Somewhat understandable if you're with a large group of 6, but definitely noticeable. The single meal, no drinks, plus auto-gratuity (for large groups) brought my total to $28. I didn't have much leftovers. The staff were quick to attend the table and kept waters filled the entire meal. Great service!
