DISCOVERY BEACH CAFE – American
A family-run casual restaurant on Barlow Avenue in Cocoa Beach, with booths and tables indoors, a tiki bar with patio seating beneath, and a lounge that takes food and drink orders as well. The menu is long and unfussy: Frank's crab cake, pan-crusted from lump meat; escargot with button mushrooms in white wine scampi sauce; fried artichoke hearts; a Mexican pizza built on a crisp tortilla and spinach queso. Sandwiches run to a classic reuben, a French dip of shaved London broil, a patty melt on grilled rye. Steaks, seafood and Boar's Head deli fill the rest. Happy hour, daily.
