    We had a fun time here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a quirky place with some interesting decor, including a huge ball of bras![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I assume these were donated or shed over the years but either way this is a cool place to have some drinks, sit on the patio and look at the ocean or sing karaoke.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was all fun and games until I found myself on the stage singing Alan Jackson, no one wanted to hear that, trust me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Give them a try if you're in the Melbourne/Indiatlantic area. It's a bit of a dive bar so don't expect anything fancy but if you're looking for cold beers and genuine people, this is the place.

    Fish and sweet potato fries

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Local bar vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of friendly folks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Grabbed a frozen Rum drink called "Banana Split," fish with sweet potato fries, and a beer. Servers were friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Location is clean with a view of the ocean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Indoor/outdoor seating and upstairs/downstairs seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Looks like they have a bar downstairs and a stage for a band above on the second floor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Parm Crusted Pizza , super cheesy

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cool dive bar vibe, went on a Monday night for dirty bingo and had a great time with lots of laughs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Waitstaff was super attentive. I got the parm crusted pizza, it was super cheesy and delicious even had some leftover for lunch the next day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely recommend if you like the beachy dive bar atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Lou's Blues was an experience. A great one! We raveled to Melbourne to visit family and found the Is fun place for after hours music. We walked in expecting blues music, but that night, the band booked was Switch, ft Ana. It was 80s Rock and my little heart started doing flips. It was fantastic! Every single person in there was having sooooo much fun! Immediate fan! And speaking of fans, there was definitely one on stage. Loved the atmosphere, service and will come back and try the food. We will definitely be back and bring friends.

    It was a good burger, and the servers were very friendly. The food came out quickly and was cooked to just the temperature that I'd asked for. The fries were hot and crisp. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It definitely has a biker bar vibe to the place[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's hard to get a better view than sitting there looking at the ocean while you're drinking a beer and eating a burger.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I may go back sometime.

    Never disappoints. Cheap cold beers. Refillable mug w WHATEVER you want. Yes please tonight we got the 1.5# peel and eat shrimps. Delish!!! Great daily specials!! Do you love 70's & 80's rock music? Great tunes. Beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean!! Such a great vibe! The service is friendly. Though I feel they prefer locals. We've become regular and the staff has warmed up to us after 3 seasons. You can't miss if you come here. The balcony is the best.

    Live band

    Such a vibe! We popped in at the recommendation of a friend and we were so glad we did! There was a live band playing a ton of 90s and 2000s alt rock and other music, not to mention some really great line dances and merengue between sets. The crowd was electric and dancing like no one was looking which was refreshing. The drinks were fantastic and reasonably priced. I stuck with the margarita and the hubby, whiskey and corona along with ice water. Refreshing and delicious combo. Special mention.... A duh moment... I left my phone in the ladies room stall and was able to retrieve it at the bar's lost and found! What a great group of people. We loved this place! Take a visit any day of the week but Saturday was amazingly lit!

    This is a really cool dive bar by the beach to grab a bite to eat. They are 2 stories and have inside bars on both floors with a spacious deck to eat on the 2nd floor. The food is your typical bar style food, burgers, sandwiches, etc with some seafood choices like calamari and oysters. Overall the food and service were really good and I would love to go back.

    Went here for Father's Day. They opened an hour earlier. Was expecting it to be packed, since they…read moredon't do reservations/take call ahead. Our party of 7 was seated fairly quickly. The place is really nice. Lots of great decor, and a live stream of Key West on a TV screen that we sat near. Food was absolutely delicious. I got the Guava Jerk Sirloin. It was cooked beautifully. The sauce was absolutely delicious. The mashed potatoes were loaded and massive, and the broccoli tasted great. Couldn't finish it, so took it home! I also got the Cafe con Leche, and it was wonderful. Would come here again!

Two have chickpea as a source with the third no having a plant based source of protein in the dish. We confirmed with the server that the guacamole did not contain dairy so ordered the plantain chips and guac as an app- highly recommend. Then after having many other burgers/sandwiches on our trip I opted for the chickpea pasta with veggies and leaving off the parm to make it vegan. I appreciate the volume of veggies in the dish, though the sauce was a touch too oily. The main issue was the cooks WAY over cooked the chickpea pasta so when they tossed it with the sauce and veggies 2/3 of the pasta had broken apart...

It has the seafood broil smell that makes your mouth water. My husband got the fish and chips but substituted the fries for the Mac and cheese. The fish was great, it is haddock and not overly breaded and the Mac and cheese was very good. It is not the box mac and cheese that many places try to give you as a side. I got the crab cakes that are on the small plate menu. They were not large and over breaded. They had a lot of crab meat and the sauce that came with the fennel salad on top was very good.

Lawren did an amazing job, 5 stars for sure!!Any questions that we had she was sure to get the answer. She was extremely personable and professional and will do a great job there. The food did not meet 5 stars. The table ordered crab cakes, crab hushpuppies and Rockefeller oysters. All were good but nothing more than 4 stars. Not quite hot enough and lacked flavor. I also ordered a chambong which was good but was not the same as I had at Shoreline in early December. In early December, the caviar included a spoon of crème freshe; however, last night was a wilted spoon of greens at best. Will I return? Yes, absolutely. I will write off last night as a slow night given it was a Tuesday evening. I wish Lawren all the best as she was a very personable server and was well prepared to get any questions answered.
