Joanne’s Beachside Cafe - Cape Canaveral, Florida

My father and I decided to try Joanne's because he was looking for a good prime rib for his 80th birthday.

The staff made us feel at home immediately, and you could tell it was a down-home type of place. I'd like to especially mention that I believe nearly every member of the staff came out to wish my father a happy birthday, including some of the cooking staff. This display of exceptional is deserving of mention.

We shared a basket of fried okra to start, which was excellent and fried perfectly.

My father of course had the prime rib, which was a thick cut of meat for the price point. He got fried onions as his side.

I had a brisket sandwich, which was very flavorful. I used the spicy BBQ sauce that was on offer, which added just the right amount of zing. The prize I had as a side were seasoned well.

Without prompting, the owner of the establishment brought out a warm brownie, and sing Happy Birthday for my father.

Needless to say, I am highly recommending this establishment. We will be back.

Brought in about 16 ppl unexpectedly and was welcomed and seated promptly. Orders taken quickly & food was out fast! After eating the hotel's breakfast for 5 days prior, this place really hit the spot. We ordered almost everything on their breakfast menu & there wasn't a single complaint from the teenage girls I was chaperoning!! Separate checks were taken care of promptly and gratuity was added in which made it simpler for us as well. It's a small place but very "homey" feeling. Cool signage and decor keep you entertained while waiting for food. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is just due to the space, which is not something they can easily fix. Highly recommend for a delicious breakfast in Cocoa Beach. Prices were very reasonable!

We were looking for crab cakes for breakfast and saw they sold them here.

The service was just average, not good, not bad. The host was not very good. Nothing stood out about the service at all. I guess that's a good thing.

The crab cakes were not good. They were served as crab cake Benedict. It tasted like fried salmon patties with egg. I didn't like them. The burger was extremely average.
I was told the sausage and gravy were okay, nothing special about it.
The breakfast sandwich was alright, the pancake was great though. The pulled pork and brisket omelet was surprisingly good as I was told.

I wouldn't eat here again.

The food was DELICIOUS! Real home cooked, tasty meals. By far the best place I ate on vacation here. My server was amazing too! Highly recommend.

Owner and staff personal, professional and friendly. Food was/is always good. However, sometimes the grits/fries were over salted. But perhaps I should have mentioned "please. no salt"! I have visited several times with friends and plan to come again. Nice atmosphere! PeterZ

Great place to grab a bite when you're in town. A local hole in the wall with great atmosphere, staff, and food. We had breakfast and it was great. I had the traditional breakfast with over easy eggs, sausage and hashbrowns. The hashbrowns were fantastic. Also, the coffee was really good too. Give them a try when you're in town.
