Pat’s on the River is one of the best little Restaurants in the Daytona Beach area. It has real charm and a vibe that you’re not going duplicate anywhere else. The prices are great, and the people who work there are so kind and appreciative. Nothing phony. Nothing fancy - just casting out its own ambience. The food is delicious, and the portions are generous. Don’t forget to check the “special board” and the creative goodies coming out of the kitchen.

Found this hidden local gem on the river away from the touristy area just south of Daytona Beach. Cute and charming with friendly service and delicious food. The atmosphere makes you feel like you're dining with family. Definitely recommend.

This place is a true hidden gem. I can't believe it's taken this long for me to have visited this place. We had a longer wait than usual, but it was during bike week, so that was to be expected. The breakfast was great! The interior is super cute. The staff all work so well together. I'll definitely be back! Excellent experience! ❤️

Cute little mom&pop diner. We come here often and the food is always great. It's like having a home cooked meal! We've had breakfast and lunch here and never leave disappointed. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely miss Reba ❤️ she was the sweetest! You can walk out on the docks and check out the river as well. We've spotted dolphins here several times, loggerhead turtles and stingrays. If you're in the area, definitely stop by. Great food, good service, great views & Lots of racing photos and funny little signs😊

This place was a smaller but intimate cafe. It reminded me of Cheers, a place where everyone felt welcome and it brought strangers together. I didn't know what to expect but I'm happy I visited this cafe for brunch with my family. I loved all of the old license plate sayings. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Just be aware of the limited parking but everything was really good.

Wow what a hidden gem. Limited seating, great menu, amazing service. Mismatched coffee cups, waitresses who have been there 30+ years, you know the vibes. In the marina. Limited parking but you won't regret going in. Cash only, ATM inside.

5 stars are hard to get.....we all know that, but this place here, gets that and then a few more if they had it. We showed up with 6 in our party on a Sunday at about 1130am and all of our breakfast came out 100% correct, hard to believe these days but it's true... It's in a boat yard, with a lot of character and tasty central Florida food! Thank you Pats for making our end of Spring Break 2026 a spot to remember!

We found the old Florida style marina diner we were looking for. I enjoyed the most excellent buckwheat pancakes. These are hard to find, especially ones that taste wonderful without butter or syrup! After eating, walk out to the adjacent docks for the full marina atmosphere.
