I was recommended to try Broken Barrel by the guys over at Tires Plus. Right when I walked in I was greeted and welcomed to sit at the bar. Everything is super nice and clean! Even family friendly with kids menus.
The Bartender Bryan was very funny, super knowledgeable about the drink and food specials. I ended up going with his recommendation the Brisket Quesadilla adding grilled onions and peppers. It came packed with brisket and cheese, the brisket had this amazing flavor. He also gave me a chicken wing to try and that also had a nice grilled smoky flavor to it. Thanks.
I enjoyed my time here at Broken Barrel. I’ll definitely be back to try the ribs next time!

Stopped by the Broken Barrel in Palm Bay and overall had a good experience. The beans had an interesting flavor at first — it took a couple bites to get used to the “choir” (char/smoked) taste, but once it kicked in, you could really smell and taste the smoky depth. Definitely unique and worth trying.
I ordered the turkey sandwich, and the quality of the turkey itself was great — you can really taste the smoked flavor. I do wish there had been a bit more turkey on the sandwich, and maybe a different bun would elevate it even more, but the flavor was solid.
Overall, good quality food with strong smoky BBQ notes. I’d go back and try a few other items on the menu next time.

Best pickle chips period. Best smoke Wings. Sangria is delicious. Been here a million times. If you haven’t been you are depriving yourself.

In the mood for some wings and stopped in based off reviews. Sat at bar and had great service. Ordered based off recommendation of smoked fried with jerk and Thai chili sauces. Wings were perfect with great flavor and crispy, not chewy like some smoked wings cane be. Highly recommend if you are looking for wings!

The food here is authentic and great. You can taste how much effort they put into the food here! The French onion soup is amazing. The blue fries are a blue chip dish. And the Carolina vinegar bbq reminded me of home. The wings are great as well, smoke fried of course!

I was in town for two weeks for work and randomly picked The Broken Barrel Tavern on my first night. I am so glad I did, I came back almost every other day while I was in town. The food is amazing and priced well, the wait staff are excellent and the atmosphere is great. I didn’t find a meal that wasn’t delicious. If you’re there for a Thursday and do Trivia, the bartender Brian is a wealth of knowledge and can help you with answers in a pinch.
I can’t wait until I’m in town again, this will be the first place I go for a beer, ribs, and an order of smoked wings.

I stopped in to try their smoked and smoke-fried chicken wings. Word of mouth in Melbourne and me wanting to sample this treat had me purchase 8 wings of each flavor. The smoked wings were a light smoky flavor and the smoked-fried had the better taste to me. The selection of draft beers was a nice selection and the bartender was courteous and provided great service. I would recommend trying their wings so you can decide which ones you like the best. Washing them down with a flavorful draft beer is what I am talking about.

Dark inside, not sure if it’s clean. Waitress and Hostess were bickering about where to seat us. Water has a bad taste, Coke or Pepsi, whatever it was, was not up to taste. Ordered a side salad, had more red onion and carrots than lettuce. Two mere slices of cucumber, no tomato. Ordered a rib sandwich, the description says it is the best sandwich you will have, well, it wasn’t. Waitress asked me what kind of sauce I wanted, never brought it. Very dry, meat was overcooked or left over from the prior day. Other order was a chicken quesadilla. It was not chicken, it was pork. Waitress never came over to ask about meal, I told her while she was bringing our check, she offered to do nothing. Won’t be back ever!
