Rikki Tiki Tavern - Merritt Island

Great fun. My son and I enjoyed the gin drinks and the tuna nachos. Mike was a great bartender.

My wife and I occasionally park a couple miles south of the pier and hike up the beach, hang out on the pier, have a bite and a drink or two, then hike back down the beach. My personal goal is to hike all the way up from the Patrick SF East Gate..

Great views and service, upbeat staff, flavorful food, can't beat it if you can find a seat!

This is a great place to stop for the view and a breeze. Water tasted a little funky, so presumed, directly from the tap without filter. The drinks were at $11 and were fine. Food options are mostly fried, sandwiches and a few other options...basic things that are easy to wear in paper dishes. Fish and chips were pretty good. There was a lingering fat taste so could be time to change the oil. Coleslaw didn't have much taste. Service was friendly. Great place for views and a quick snack.

Loved that you could stand or sit around the large bar with plenty of servers and seating. I would suggest arriving early! Overall the experience was awesome. Great drinks and affordable price. Customer service was on point and it was super busy. A must walk at the end of board walk to get to the Tiki Bar but worth it.
