Breakfast & Brunch

Backwater

Downtown Melbourne

Southern-leaning breakfast and lunch with a distinctly Florida personality.

WHY IT'S ON THE LIST

Why go.

The signature experience is the griddle-table setup where guests can cook their own pancake designs. The restaurant also emphasizes Florida sourcing and in-house preparation.

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO

No reservations or call-ahead seating. The downtown location is smaller; the Wickham Road location is the better bet for larger groups.
