The food was amazing. It is a hand pattied burger. If you order the double expect to eat a lot. The fries were good and the fried pickles were 5 star. Definitely would like to eat here again when in town. It does have a bar atmosphere but the staff was amazing and we felt comfortable even being over dressed. read more

Good atmosphere. Friendly people. Very good food. We will plan on returning here sometime soon.

Drew's is a small, casual tavern not far off US1 in Melbourne, FL. We popped in for lunch today and sat inside since it was too hot to sit outside, but they do have outdoor seating as well. We sat at the bar area, and bartender Brandi was very friendly and offered up recommendations from the food menu and gave us some samples of beers we had not tried before. We like that they offer $3 pints on Domestic beers. There was an issue with some of the taps producing too much foam. Wanted to try the crab cake sandwich, but they were out of the crab cakes, so I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger with fries ($13). The burger was a thick patty and cooked just as requested. My counterpart ordered the 3- count blackened Mahi Mahi tacos off the appetizer section for ($14). The fish was also cooked well and the tacos quite tasty. Drew's offers some gaming machines and some mounted TV's for entertainment. We learned that Thursday evenings is Lady's Night. They have limited beer taps but did have additional craft beers in the can; just ask what they have. Our receipt was very confusing. The question I have on our receipt is that the sales tax rate in Florida is 7%. The subtotal on our bill was $36. 7% tax would be $2.52 but the tax showing on our receipt was $3.08 (a little more than 8.5% sales tax and .56 cents more than what we should have been assessed for sales tax), so what's going on here? That brought our total to $39.08. Then if we paid cash, the receipt said it would lower our total to $37.76 (a 3.5% discount). Is Drew's discreetly charging customers the credit card merchant's processing fee for using a credit card to pay for drinks/meals? There is no disclosure on their website or on the printed menu explaining that there are two different prices for your food and drink orders. If you pay with a credit card you will be paying more than the price listed on the menu. AND your receipt states "Listed Menu Prices reflect Cash Prices." That means that if you are NOT paying cash, you are going to be paying more for your food orders than it is listed for on the menu. This is not disclosed up front. Therefore, patrons can conclude that you are being assessed a 3.5% upcharge for using a credit card to pay your bill. Full disclosure would be posting this business practice on their website, printing a statement on their menu, and listing two prices on the menu next to food items (cash price, and paying with a credit card price). I certainly didn't expect that I would be paying more for my food than the price that was listed on the menu. This is not cool. (see receipt in photos attached) I had intended to give Drew's a 4* rating based on food and service, however this upcharge business for paying with a credit card caused me to lower the rating. Just not a good way to do business. read more

Excellent service and food! The burger and fish taco were great. Thank you Ed and the staff for taking care of our puppy and recommending the chicken breast for her. She loved it! read more

We are from Fort Lauderdale and were in town for a softball tournament at Space Coast Softball Complex. After a crazy day (switching hotels, rain/lightning storms and the sweltering heat), we could not wait for a burger and a beer. This place was a towny bar with amazing prizes and delicious food. The cook was on point and did not delay on these orders. The loaded potato skins were out of this world--fresh, HOT and cheesy. My Alabama Slamma Burger was juicy with a warm bun and crispy bacon. My daughter loved her wings and onion rings. NOT only was the food FIRE, but Ed (NOT Drew) was a one-man band---bartending, servicing, bussing his own tables and did it all with a smile on his face. He was fast, efficient, honest and easy to chat with. He clearly multi-tasks so well that having another employee there would throw off his rhyme. I typically tip well, but didn't think twice when it came to leaving a 30% tip today. Thanks Ed for ending our day on a the right foot. read more

Great food & Great Service! Definitely a great place. Will be back and will bring some friends.

A basic place to grab a beer and some bar food. I was struggling over which sandwich to get, and the bartender asked if I had ever been before, which was a no. She said you MUST try the burgers. So ok, I did. Got the blue burger. Meh. It was an OK burger, don't get me wrong. But if this is what you hang your hat on, hmmmm. I'll go back and try something else as its a cool place when you are dining alone and just want to sit at the bar for a beer and something not fancy to eat. read more

The food is awesome and very reasonably priced!! The establishment is very clean and the service is great! Would highly recommend!

Came to the restaurant on a recommendation of a coworker. The restaurant is quaint and tucked behind of another restaurant and has a beach/pub vibe. Hardwood floors, half corrugated and planked walls make the scene of a pub. It has 4 big screen TV's to watch the games. Plenty seating at the bar. I ordered the potatoes skins with chili appetizer and the buy one get one free chicken wings. We ordered 2-orders of 5 wings.and was plenty for the 3 of us. The potatoes skins were overcooked and a bit crunchy but they were still good. The wings were flash fried and sauced up. I mean really sauced up! They have plenty items on the menu, the next time we come we are going to go for the gumbo. My husband had the Florida Lager beer. Glass was nice and icy. There were several beer selections but my husband was stuffed. Staff was great and the owner was very pleasant! The recommendation was spot on! We will be coming back! Thanks Drew!! read more

I'm from Jacksonville came down to visit a friend with my significant other and was looking for a place to eat. Amazing burgers it's a small place but the staff is really friendly ! I ordered a double bacon cheese burger (I thought it was double bacon and one patty) I'll be honest I missed where it said these are 10oz Pattie's.I was worried that the burger would not taste good because of the size and boy was I wrong. Burgers were seasoned well and if you squeezed a Pattie you could see the juices - I had a pineapple cider and my bill came out to 24 and change! I would go back! read more

We had friends in town and wanted to share the downtown vibe of Melbourne creating our own Pub Crawl. We were quickly greeted and offered a table. Not sure where the next person came from but loudly he said "you can't bring those in here!" Referring to our take out boxes from the previous stop. At this point it felt like all eyes in the area were on us. We had no intention of eating the food in the take out boxes, we were just saving room to be able to try a bite at each restaurant. I tried to explain and said we planned to order from Drew's menu. He then repeated very loudly "you can't bring those boxes in here". At this point we could tell many people were turned to look at us. I was so embarrassed took a look at my friends and they all said let's go. Our group turned to leave and the guy said oh come on you're not really goin to leave. We haven't been back. This weeks organized St Patrick's Pub crawl starts at Drew's, hoping we have a much better experience. read more

Good food and ambiance. Our server left without handing our table over to the next server. That was odd. Probably just a one off. The next server was nice and I have no complaints. Regardless, I would go back. read more

Wow, I had the lemon pepper wings and they were amazing. Sweet tea was on point and the stuff (service) were wonderful.

We were in town for the night and decided to give this place a try. A little hole in the wall buried behind more commercial places. Not the fanciest of places, but was welcoming upon walk in. We went as a family of four (2 young teens) on a Saturday night and there was no wait. Super friendly atmosphere. We grabbed a table and orders drinks. Extensive list for beers, not so much for wine, but a very generous pour. Had the nachos as an app and they were pretty darn tasty. Ordered a few burgers and the buffalo grilled chicken sandwich. Everything was really good! Excellent burger. Perfectly done and super tasty. The fries were so crispy. The crowd was locals which is always a good sign. Great place for some tasty grub. Would sure recommend if you're in the mood for some good bar grub. read more

Stop based on the reviews and nothing special. McDonald burgers taste better , if you are looking for beer they have good selection but for food don't hesitate. read more

A hidden gem. A little hole in the wall. Off the beaten path. I had the Blackened Mahi Sandwich and we ordered a grilled chicken caesar salad, fish and chips, and a kids chicken tenders with fries. All were so very good. The waitress was wonderful! She was very friendly and attentive to us. The burgers look amazing too! read more

Five stars all around! Even my very cranky toddler went from crying to smiling. Can't say enough about the kindness of staff who all went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Typical bar food done well. Fish sandwich was perfectly blackened. Philly cheesteak was on par with ones in Philly. Portions were large. Drink list was good - especially recommend the pineapple caribe cider. Live music was covers of hits and guitarist was pretty good. People were dancing on Friday night read more

This place was such a great find! Our son just moved to Melbourne and we were there dropping off some things for him. Came for lunch here and had the Mahi Tacos that were absolutely fantastic. The order came with three (tacos were listed as an appetizer) and were more than filling. Our son had the Philly Cheesesteak. He ordered it with the beer cheese sauce but the kitchen made a mistake and put on Provolone. Before it came out, our waitress/bartender Brandi, came out apologizing and asked if he wanted it remade or the beer cheese on the side. He said just put it on top. It came out on the side (they wanted to make sure he liked it) and it was fantastic as well. Five stars for service and five stars for the food! They have outside seating as well. We will definitely be back! read more
