    There we were today, driving south on 95 with no good idea where to stop and get a quick bite. Lucky for me, I had book marked this place sometime in the past year as decent spot based on a friends opinion. We exited off the highway and in no time we were at the place. It is co-located with "Skydive Sebastian" and the airport there. This added to the chill ambiance of the place as jumpers were coming and going and others were just hanging out messin around on their laptops. we went for a fairly basic lunch, beer and a bite. The beer was an american pilsner type, "Shiner" out of Texas. Solid refreshing beer and the sandwich was a ham and cheese on ciabatta bun. The sandwich was far better than I would have guessed it to be. And the hand cut thin fries were really great. Overall, if it wasn't for the many bugs flying about, (they said the rains had stirred them up), I mighta said it was a perfect stop in. Next time I'm in that part of 95 I think I will stop back. It's nice to drink a beer on the side of a small runway.

    Always a good meal and awesome service. Super chill spot to hang and watch parachutes flying above.

    Dog Friendly, People Friendly, BEAUTIFUL view of the airport facilities, outdoor seating, hammocks and plenty of sunshine. Also the ONLY place with real coffee for like 10 miles around Unfortunately we came on a day when bad weather was expected, so the cafe was not fully stocked, but the chef/owner made us WONDERFUL ham-cheese-egg sandwich for our party. I was happy that he explained this to us, up-front and honest to set our expectations. The food was very well done, fresh and tasty. We had a pleasant conversation with the staff and I hope to come back on a day when they have better weather and more food items in-stock. Our puppies had a great time running around the grassy areas and enjoying the warm ocean breeze. We will be back.

    Sitting in Sebastian airport adjacent to the skydiving facility, the Zoo Bar does not at first glance look a place where are you would find high quality food and drink. But everything here is surprisingly good. They brew their own coffee and everything is made fresh. I had a blackened Mahi-mahi wrap with house made coleslaw and spinach, and it was delicious. You'll love the ambience. You have skydivers and pilots sitting around in a rustic setting. Sunshine, our server and cook, came over to our table to see how we enjoyed the meal and let us sample some of their cold brew varieties. You can imagine that the place looked pretty much the same as it would have 50 years ago. I like the Old Florida feeling any it evokes. The bar is located just west of Route one, at the airport in Sebastian. If you're going to be in the area it's definitely worth a visit

    Meeeeeee!!!

    Zoo Bar is a great hidden treasure of the treasure coast in Sebastian!! It is a great pit stop for Italian coffee,wine,mimosas, beer and/or a bite to eat with out of town friends or locals :-P The atmosphere is casual, inviting, and the staff is always very welcoming and friendly. The best part is the Chef!!! He is always accommodating in making spur of the moment a la carte meals, and be sure that all and anything he whips up is to be DELICIOUS!!! I've been lucky to try: - Italian espresso - Pork pulled sandwich - Egg and asparagus sandwich with bacon on the side

    This was an awesome find!! Extremely friendly place with outstanding food. Morgan (the owner / chef) makes some mean Mahi Sliders with homemade coleslaw & a Nitro Cold-brew Organic coffee. Thank you for a great food experience!! Will definitely be back!

    Breakfast sandwich a La shalev

    As the morning dew settles and the sun rises over the Sebastian inlet. There is one place you can always trust to pour up the best café con leche in Indian ri ve r county. Chef shalev has done it again. The breakfast sandwich was delicate masterpiece in comparison to the sandwiches to have blessed my lips in the past. First the Multigrain baguette hits you pallette and sends fresh nuts exploding in your mouth as if they were picked and baked by the chef himself. The eggs, perfectly fluffy, delicate spinach leaves dancing on top and melted aged cheddar imported from his brother normans farm in Wisconsin paled in comparison to the robust and coma Inducing bacon that crunched with every bite. High recommend getting your dose of morning love and if your on for an exotic taste of jerusalem. Try jacobs special sauce. A secret family recipe of black cherry infused balsamic is sure to rock your morning and leave you begging for more

    What a great place! Even if you don't skydive, this place on the airport is so good. Had an awesome smoked brisket sandwich with perfect fries. Love sitting there watching the skydivers come back down. Staff was super friendly to. The have a limited food menu, but everything is made when ordered. Draft beer too!

    My boys love visiting the Zoo bar for the Papi Dog and an ice cream. They can't get enough of watching the skydivers "fly."

    Stopped in on a Saturday morning and immediately appreciated the Old Florida charm of this place…read more Country Ham N Egg has the kind of classic diner vibe I love--complete with a proper lunch counter, plenty of booths and tables, and even some outdoor seating. We were seated right away, and the service was spot on: quick, friendly, and never felt rushed. I usually judge a breakfast spot partly by their coffee, but I already had a fresh cup of homebrew in my Buc-ee's tumbler this time around and didn't want to waste it (Yes, I saw the "Absolutely no outside beverages" sign... and yes, I'll respect that on future visits. No one said a word, which I appreciated.) I did grab a giant glass of cranberry juice to go with my meal. I ordered the pork chop with two eggs over easy, grits, and an English muffin--and everything was cooked just right. The pork chop had perfect grill marks and was tender and flavorful. The eggs were exactly how I like them, and the grits... well, I can be a bit picky when it comes to grits, but these were spot on. Creamy, hot, and seasoned just right--hard to beat that. All in all, a great breakfast experience. Looking forward to coming back, and I'm curious to see what they've got on the lunch menu next time.

    Stopped in the local breakfast hangout for a good meal after work. Ordered the chicken fried steak,…read morehome fries, eggs and toast. I ate the eggs and half the toast. That's it. Only 5 pieces of potato were fried, the rest seemed like cubes of pale baked potato. The "steak" was more like a breaded hamburger, and tasted like it was past it's sell-by date. I left everything else on the plate. The waitress never asked if there was anything wrong, and I could plainly see she saw what was left on my plate. Even when I went to pay no one asked how everything was, as is customary in the food service industry. This place is 3 miles from my house, but I'll drive the 25 miles to the closest Crakcer Barrel from now on.

    We wandered into the Village Tavern of Sebastian on a Saturday afternoon after running errands, and…read moreit instantly felt like one of those hidden gems you kick yourself for not finding sooner. We live just down the road in Vero Beach, so discovering a neighborhood tavern with this much charm practically in our backyard was a real win. We had already eaten lunch at Nini's Cuban across the parking lot, so we stopped in just for a beer. Within minutes we were pulled straight into the atmosphere. Nancy, the bartender and proprietor, is the kind of host every small tavern dreams of. Warm, funny, and completely at ease, she makes newcomers feel like long‑time regulars while keeping the whole place running smoothly. The beer selection is far better than you would expect from a cozy local spot. There is a rotating craft lineup that rivals bigger bars, along with the classics and a surprisingly solid wine list. We spent half our visit sipping and the other half laughing at the hilarious signs covering the walls and at the antics of a couple of regulars who clearly keep the place lively. We have not tried the food yet, but the vibe alone guarantees we will be back and we will be coming hungry. This is the kind of place where you settle in, meet the locals, and let the afternoon drift. For the record, our beer of choice that day was "Cougar Bait." It is as much fun to drink as it is to say!

    If you're looking for a place that makes you feel like you actually belong in the neighborhood,…read moreVillage Tavern Restaurant is that rare gem that delivers comfort, quality, and character with every plate and pint. From the moment I slid onto a barstool, I knew I was in for something special -- and not just because the beer list reads like a love letter to hop heads and casual sippers alike. Each pint poured is thoughtful, crisp, and refreshing, with local craft brews rubbing shoulders beside tried‑and‑true favorites. I lost count somewhere around the third flight, but honestly? Worth it. And then there's Nancy, the bartender -- sweet lord, if every tavern had her warmth and precision, we'd all be happier people. She recommended beers without braggy pretension, anticipated refills like a mind reader, and managed a perfect balance of friendly conversation and professional grace. Her service alone is worth the trip. Great food, killer beers, and a bartender who makes you feel like a VIP? Village Tavern doesn't just raise the bar -- it is the bar.
