Really friendly bartenders and cool open space. Definitely stop by here for a fun cocktail! They have a discount if you pay with cash , and that's the price on the menus so be aware of that. Overall, it's a really relaxed vibe, it's a good to people watch too! We've gotten Mojitos (both classic and flavored), and the Florida man which were all good!
Hubby and I love Tropics! We always make sure to stop by whenever we visit Coco Beach. The food is always great, cocktail options are crafted beautifully and they even offer to-go drinks. Every time we visit we opt for their Chile Lime Fries and their Fried Cauliflower. Both are so good and fresh! The bartenders recognized when it was our first time here and went over the menu options and even offered neighboring bars to visit which we appreciated! The inside was quaint and tropical. They mentioned they have live music as well at night which we can't wait to go back for. Highly recommend stopping by on your way back from the beach!
I have some friends that moved from one area of Cocoa Beach to another, and they moved to a neighborhood that's literally less than a 10 minute walk from this place. The first time I went to visit their new digs, they brought me here, and I am so glad they did! First of all, the location is unbeatable. You're about 50 feet away from the sand of the beach, and the whole bar is super open, so you can do some excellent people watching as they all pour into or out of the beach. Second of all, this place has a proud mocktail menu, which is very rare non only in this country, but in this state, and especially in this county. So I really enjoyed that. FYI, I got the Virgin Pina Colada on the Rock (w/ coconut syrup, lime, pineapple, whipped cream, dark cherry), and it was very good. Very coconuty, with that lime to balance it out nicely. I also got the Fresh Brewed Sun Tea (w/mango), which is less of a mocktail and more of just, tea. But the mango flavor was Strong. Very sweet, so beware. Another couple joined us, so the six of us split a number of food items. Chile Lime Fries (cilantro-lime crema, cotija cheese, Tajin chili spice). Very fun. Crispy fried with a tangy crema everywhere, that creamy cheese, and the Tajin putting pops of intense twang in each bite. I liked it. Filipino Cheesesticks (cheese fried in lumpia wrappers w/ sweet chili sauce). Oooh. Very fun. Not sure the kind of cheese, but it was ooey and gooey and melty. Take a dip in the sauce and take a very crispy bite out of the lumpia wrapper. Awesome. And the Musubi (2 pieces, griddled Spam, pineapple teriyaki, furikake, green onion & sushi rice, wrapped in nori). If you know what musubi is, you know. If you don't, it's one of the best snacks on the planet. This is a very big musubi, very sharable, and a nice hunk of Spam for you to fill up on. Overall, the island vibe of this place was undeniable. I don't come out to Cocoa Beach very often, but when I do, I will probably be coming to this place every time.
Hey, DJ is that throw back Ciara from the early 2000s?! Omg yes! Because of the awesome throwback jams from last nights DJ, my family found ourselves at Tropics Cocktail Bar. So much fun! Ciara, the bartender was super personable and made some delicious stiffies. I would highly recommend Tropics out of the surrounding bars in this area because the drinks are good, the music was bangin' and the restrooms are super clean!
The sliders are a must, and the bartender (Tish) was the best. This is a must stop when you're down here.
This bar is great! They have a perfect location right by the beach, it's beautiful. They have a full bar with craft cocktails and always have great bartenders. The good menu is elevated bar food, and they have some vegan options. Overall a great place!
This is a must bar to go to when visiting Cocoa Beach Florida, the bartenders are amazing and the food and service is excellent and the live bands are fantastic!!!
Tropics Cocktail Bar, Cocoa Beach, FL- 1-Star "I tend to stay away from the big tourist traps." - A. Wersching Taking my eyes from the road for a brief second, I glanced down at my random name generator nestled in the center counsel of the Big Boy Mobile. It hadn't changed since I pulled out of my driveway. I was still destined for a meal at Hollywood & Vine or Times Square. That's right, I was headed for ground zero for tourist hell. I reckon that approximately 90% of the humans I saw are from out of town. I have to mention that it is a good thing I only rate execution of foodstuffs in my reviews as this place was a swill purveyor. I haven't been to a place this filthy since long before COVID made everyone and their mama germ-a-phoebes. My waitress/bartender was Amber and she appeared as grungy and repulsive as the surroundings. Her service was as poor as her attitude. I always wonder how sour wait staff impact the review. I always try to remove horrid service from my review but I must admit Amber is probably the WORST waiter in Brevard County After glancing at the menu I was struck by the interesting flavor combinations represented and, in spite of the surroundings, I was looking forward to sampling the offerings from their kitchen. To that end, I asked Amber for a single malt whiskey--neat and four sliders, two with cheese and garlic aioli and two Caribbean pork with guava BBQ sauce. After 238 days of not drinking and staring at such a generous, beautiful pour of whiskey, it was hard to pass, but pass I did. Forcing my eyes from the whiskey glass, I concentrated on the food before me, snapped a few pictures and commenced dining. First up on the Big Boy's discerning palate were the aforementioned cheese and garlic aioli sliders. The aioli was the blandest aioli I have yet tasted (read plain mayo tasting). The meat was cooked properly, though nothing spectacular jumped out at me. These sliders, despite how well they read in the menu, were below average. Moving on to the item that really peaked my inquisitiveness, the Caribbean pork sliders with guava BBQ sauce. While like its predecessor, these buns were grilled (my favorite), I am fairly certain that the pork was microwaved. It just had that microwaved texture. As bland as the garlic aioli was, I found these to be the better of the two however terrible. Both plates came with fries and slaw. The fries were plug and play, but they were cooked properly and seasoned--huge props for that. The slaw was also very nice, not top shelf, but obliviously not the bottom of the barrel foodservice sludge either. While I found the place lacking, I am sure the typical drunk tourist would love it. The Big Boy says, "unless your cruising for drunk tourists, I would avoid this dump." #bigboydiningout #bigboy
Excellent cocktail bar in Cocoa Beach! Not far from the beach, they have frozen drinks to help with the scorching summer heat and a good selection of handcrafted cocktails. We tried the electric lychee lemonade, Oaxacan sunset, lemongrass mojito and the frozen colada flight. Everything tasted good. Great service as well, it will definitely become a staple for us if we come back in the area!
I have been meaning to come here!! I come to cocoa beach every weekend and barely had a drink here, today! Really love how this bar is set up, very open for bar sitting / tables. Such beautiful drinks - made by great bartenders! Love that you can take on the go. I got the Caesar spears and added shrimp. Light app and it was so worth it!! I will keep coming!
Smoke out marg- delicious ! 5/5 Smokey coconut drink that is quality ! Cuba Libre Old Fashioned - for $14 they should put A LOT more alcohol in the cup. I understand it's an old fashioned but I have had many of them and they have all been over 3 sips of alcohol. Tasted very good but it was so small i had to ration it - didn't even fill up half way the cup WITH ice. The vibe of this place is very nice and the bartenders are really friendly. Coming back but probably not for the old fashioned :( read more
We came here after the beach and sat outside to eat and Sasha was awesome! She provided great service and made sure we were able to enjoy and relax. She told us about the Chile lime fries that taste like Mexican street corn and we fell in love! Their food was unique, delicious and flavorful! We also came back later in the night to enjoy the music. Overall this place is a hit read more

A nice small bar right by the beach but not beachfront. I really liked the interior decorating with the jungle tropical vibe but decided to sit outside as it is a pretty small venue. Good to have a drink or 2 and maybe a light snack, but I wouldn't recommend for anything more. Their wings were really good, good flavor, fried well, not too spicy though. Their drinks, even though was happy hour was a tad more expensive than what the menu stated but everything has been this winter (2021) Their watermelon, cucumber, pineapple was good I thought, but after I had a couple bites, my girl stopped me and told me to smell it first. Sure enough the watermelon was actually rancid, smelled like a garbage can of rotten produced. The dude had me tip before taking off the fruit plate, which wasn't too cool since I did hit the 25% tip but whatever. read more

I really like this bar. I enjoyed both of the frozen cocktails they offered. Both of the lady bartenders that took care of me were friendly. I plan to get cocktails here every time I go to cocoa beach. I haven't tried their food yet. These were $10-$12, blue one is vodka & the orange one is wine. read more

Covered open air bar. Cold drinks. Apps are good. Waiting for stupid Frosty Factory to make good on their frozen drink machine warranty. Spicy Margaritas are my go-to. DJ dance vibe on the weekends. Cozy joint. read more
Creative high quality cocktails at this newer spot downtown Cocoa Beach far outshining others in the area. Highlights: - Impressive menu of cocktails or tricked out versions of classics you won't find elsewhere. - Rum Old fashioned rum: I have had one of these before and always appreciate the single ice cubes but have never had a coconut water cylindrical one. Added a bit more subtle flavor to it when it melted. 5 stars - Lemongrass mojito: my friend kept raving about this being her favorite cocktail of the 10 day visit. 5 stars - Mai tai: tried the barrel aged and the standard. Solid versions with the barrel adding more bitterness to it. 4 stars - Spam musubi: always love this snack so snagged some with my cocktails. 4 stars - Cocktails to go: always love this option to take home or on the beach. Since we were walking back they gave us them without the ice so they wouldn't be watered down when we got there. - Seating: bar area inside and outside as well as tables in both locations as well. - Staff: cool Game of Thrones tattooed man helping us happy to talk TV while making outstanding cocktails Lowlights: - I didn't have room to try more food on the menu Love this new addition and will be back. read more

I love this place. Right off the beach. Great place to people watch. We ordered the wings and pulled pork sliders with chili lime fries and they were delicious. Drinks were amazing! Tish did a stellar job, we would come back just because of her! She had us laughing and was very attentive! She was awesome! read more

I just want to say what a great experience I had at Tropics in cocoa beach and what exceptional customer service was provided by Raechel and Meg. I haven't felt as comfortable and at ease in quite some time. I will not only be returning, but also recommending this place to anyone looking for an awesome evening out. read more

Stopped in here for what we thought would be just one drink to tide us over until we got called from the Coconuts waitlist but ended up staying! Fantastic service from the bartender Sean. I really appreciated the vegan options on the food menu too and got jackfruit sliders in lettuce wraps (a bit spicy but yummy). Good vibes, clean, cheery. read more

I saw another review that raved about this place, so had to check it out. It was AMAZING! I really like the craft cocktail tropical drinks, and they did not disappoint! Their version of a 1944 mai tai was a tribute to the original with only a slight modification, and they also had barrel aged it, which I had to try - again, amazing! Had 2 other drinks and they were unique and delicious. The staff was incredibly fun, very interested in working there, and it really showed. Chatted with a couple of them and they were just delightful. I didn't have anything to eat as we had had dinner elsewhere but next time I am in town, I will make a point to have some of their nibbles. I won't bother with any other "tropical" places around there, the electric blue over sweetened drinks with low quality liquor is just not fun! Support this place because they know how to make an amazing drink, and give excellent service! read more
