Backwater in Melbourne, FL, offers two locations for patrons to enjoy their southern cuisine experience. The original Downtown spot, established in 2015, boasts free parking at the nearby City Hall garage. However, due to its smaller size, it cannot accommodate groups larger than 8.

For those seeking a larger venue, Backwater North on N. Wickham Road is the place to be. With ample parking and an outdoor patio equipped with games for all ages, this location can cater to bigger parties with griddles accommodating up to 10 guests. No reservations are accepted at either location.

At Backwater, the emphasis is on coming together and cooking together. Guests can enjoy fresh, locally sourced food prepared in-house daily. From smoked pork to coastal shrimp, the ingredients showcase the best of Florida's offerings. The restaurant partners with local family-owned businesses to ensure quality and freshness in every dish.

Impeccable food in unsuspecting spot. You'll have to wait more than likely. Even have to find a parking spot & walk to here. But it's all worth it. One of our families favorite spots for good...
