If you haven’t eaten out lately at Port Canaveral, you’re missing a great experience. Our restaurants offer a range of fare from finger foods to full-course dinners. If you’re in the mood for seafood, where could the day’s catch be fresher than where it goes directly from the fishing boat’s deck to the restaurant kitchen? If you’re not in the seafood mood, how about a great grilled steak, smoked pork ribs, fettuccine alfredo, fried gator bites, or a big piece of bourbon pecan pie? It’s all here.

The Cove is a waterfront recreation area at Port Canaveral with restaurants, lounges, shops, charter boats and a casino ship. Many Cove restaurants have outdoor tables and tiki bars, great locations for watching the cruise ships glide by regally or just enjoying an onshore breeze. When the sun goes down, the fun doesn’t end. It gets livelier…with DJs, live bands, dancing and karaoke. Feel free to explore. There’s amazing variety within easy walking distance. (And if you like camping, you could be just an easy stroll from your bed when the evening ends.)

A list follows of the great restaurants and lounges at the Port. (The area code for all phone numbers is 321 and all addresses are in Cape Canaveral, Florida.) For a street map of the Port click here.
