The food in this place is amazing, feels hommie, the only thing I will suggest is to make it bigger, but I don't mind the wait. Is worth it. Plus lots of food for the price. Make this one of my favorite places to come on the weekends to eat like I like, lots of great flavor and perfect portion for a guy that eat like an animal. Very happy with Banana River cafe

Found this spot after doing a Google search for breakfast restaurants.. the menu and everything looked amazing online. .. As with everything else I've driven by this place I don't know how many times! A nice little diner in a plaza with a bagel shop and a few other stores. When we arrived they weren't very busy it took a few minutes for the server to get our drink orders to be honest the server was probably a friend of the family's or very new.. asking her for a recommendation she just drugged the special of the day was the lemon blueberry risotto pancakes after asking her about it she said that

Love the menu here. Breakfast all day and they have a special menu that changes from time to time. Have a mix of traditional dishes and some Mexican and Asian inspired flavors, along with healthy vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options. Been twice already and looking forward to the next time!

My BFAM* Steve offered to take us to breakfast this morning at a place that "makes the best biscuits & gravy" that he'd "ever eaten at a restaurant."
There's no possible way one can pass up something after an introduction like THAT! So we loaded up the car and we moved to Beverly...Hills that is...
No wait, he took us to Banana River Cafe in Satellite Beach. And let me tell you, he wasn't lying. First of all, let me state that I agree 100%. No part of this was ever found in some prepackaged mix where they just added hot water. No. There is an abundance of sausage cooked into the gravy and to

This is probably the best cafe in the area. With locally roasted coffee and a phenomenal menu, this is a must-visit. We've eaten here a handful of times and always had great food and service.

Cute little restaurant. Beach artwork up for sale. This little Cafe cranks out big breakfasts with a lot of flavor. Service is a bit slow so make sure you bring a great conversation partner with you.

Love this place! Found it while on vacation and came back twice. Lots of great options. I got the Mexican scrambler and the portions were more than filling. Great breakfast/lunch spot!

I've lived here for 8 years, and have never been. Boy have I been missing out! For starters, I love the decor. The walls are covered with vintage photos, beach pictures, fishing artwork and quirky things. The atmosphere is really wonderful. The tables aren't too close together which always bothers me in small diners.
The service was friendly, and the food came out very quickly. Make sure to check the specials board behind the counter, because that is where the gems are. I had the lemon ricotta pancakesnwurh blueberries and my son had the power bowl. Both were just fabulous. I'm somewhat particular

5 Star Breakfast Place ! I like the different Benedict's , but have never had a bad meal of anything here. Try the banana bread on the side with anything that you get. It's worth it :-)
I also love that local artist display their work on the walls here. Everything's for sale. I bought two great paintings right off the wall from here

Cute little place repping local artists on the walls. Staff is friendly and quick even when slammed. Food is delicious and they are okay with substitutions on ingredients. Breakfast was hearty and full of bold flavors. But there are options for those wanting a lighter meal to start the day. Will be coming back.

Amazing breakfast spot. Everyone in the family was happy. Only downsides: pretty crowded and no brunch cocktails. This probably isn't the place you want to go on your rare moments away from your kiddos, but it's an amazingly family-friendly place with delicious food.

The best breakfast menu, hands down. Cozy little nook restaurant. All your food, fresh from the open kitchen. Biscuits and sausage gravy/ Stack of pancakes/ Mushroom hash. You need to go!

Good Food, Great staff, Friendly staff.
This restaurant is located on S Patrick Drive, just north of Island Dr. It is in a set of stores on the East side of the road. There is plenty of parking as there are several stores. There are 2 tables outside and about 12 tables inside. The staff is very friendly and wear masks. We have been to this location many times and had numerous items. My favorite is their french toast and iced tea. We typically eat outside in front of the window. This most recent visit was like the previous ones in that the waitress was very friendly and efficient. The food came

My husband and I have enjoyed eating here for the last two years, since moving from out of state. The French toast, bowls, omelettes - all of it is super yum. Due to the pandemic, we keep eating out out to once a week now - if even. Our first trip back to BRC after the shutdowns was about 3 weeks ago, and unfortunately it will have to be our last for now. None of the staff wore masks. It's such a shame. The interior is so small, and you've got a maskless waitress or two buzzing around between all the tables of guests (who of course aren't wearing masks because they're eating
