There is one place in Cocoa Beach that is almost legend. It is a place where astronauts have always eaten, as well as all of the journalists that have covered the space center. At the height of the space program, if you did not make reservations months in advance, you could not get them within a day or so of a launch. Today I think reservations are much easier to get.. The place is called Bernards Surf. The food is quite good, and the prices are not out of line..

Try the Mango Tree.  Its has fine food and a classy but not overdone atmosphere.  It is located on A1A, north of the Minuteman Causeway, on the northbound side of the road (in the area of the restaurant, south and north A1A are separated by a block).

One of the best restaurants in the county is the Black Tulip in Cocoa Village, acroos the causeway (route 520) west of Cocoa Beach.  It's been a long time, but I once had maybe the best lobster I have ever had there. Great innovative desserts to.

There are some fun fish places north at Cape Canaveral too.

 Also try the Black Tulip in Cocoa Village. There is a very good place Near the space center called Mr Lee's. Good Chinese food.

Bernards surf was good. We were lucky we didn't have a problem getting in without a reservation but it was a tuesday evening in January so that may have had something to do with it.
