Good Beer but BAD/SLOW/RUDE SERVICE & Price gouging. I LOVE the beer & ale selections here. BUT management is gouging their beer-aficionado clients by typically only offering the new selections of weekly rotating tap beers/ales in very small goblet sizes rather than pint sizes. They also jack the price on these featured beers to HIGHER than comparable quality ales sold by the pint for less. One of the older frumpy female bartenders can be just outright obnoxious and verbally abusive too. Dont bring important clients or friends here when shes working since she loves to incite drama and to embarrass people - even regulars. She wont acknowledge you when you sit down and if you dare to try to get her attention after being ignored for 7-10 minutes shell insult you or whine "wait your turn!" and turn around and continue talking to a co-worker or other person. Youd think if theyre so busy theyd at least GET 2 Bartenders rather than letting just one obnoxious one horde tips for both bar and floor service! As well, this one doesnt know how to keep a bar top clean nor know how to pour & serve a beer without it dripping all down the glass and onto the bar top (which she will never clean up). TACKY and LOW CLASS. Food is nothing special - wings and sandwiches are fine. Avoid the fish-n-chips (worst I have ever had). Pizza is barely edible as the crust is like cardboard (microwave?). Expect SLOW food service (30-40 minutes) if more than a dozen people are there since they just dont have the kitchen capacity. This USED to be a great place to go for premium regular tap ales/beers and to sample hard to find craft beers and ales from all over the world. The atmosphere USED to be warm and congenial and more like a traditional neighborhood pub with local regulars and even a wholesome family kind of atmosphere. But lately, depending on night it seems to be falling in class and now getting a rather peculiar assortment of beer aficionados & wholesome couples out to be social intermixed with the drink-for-cheapest-buzz sort and other "odd" fellows. They made a huge mistake in offering the too low price "low-end beers" and that is bringing in seedy clients now. Dont be surprised to see a homeless person you helped out in the parking lot then follow you in for a beer...

Hey, you like beer? Like good beer? No. Not Yuengling. Not Shocktop. Were talking Trappists, Abbey Ales, Dunkels, White Ales, Porters, Stouts, Double IPAs, English Ales, Black Lagers, imports, craft microbrews, pint glasses, goblets, rotating taps, beer served in its respective receptacle. Pair that with the best burgers in town, best fried green tomatoes Ive had since I left Tennessee. Give it a swank pub bar and sunny bier garden. This place is elegant and its casual. Service is lovely and knowledgeable. Its got NFL ticket with designated tables for all teams fans watching. Had the best beer cheese soup in my life here. For someone spoiled by living near a Flying Saucer in bigger cities, this is actually preferred over the chaos of that beer haven. The class probably has something to do with that. I would have to spend an entire year trying every beer they have on tap. If youve got questions or are uncertain, they will give a sample. Theyve even got wine for those who arent into the brew scene. A unique feature of the menu here is their burger of the day, its usually a rare or exotic meat. I think they had kangaroo once. Or Ostrich? Maybe both. The best burger I had came with a fried egg on it. In a world of faceless meat on buns, that burger left a deep impression on me. So, I ask you again, do you like beer? If so, then Coasters Pub awaits you. A softly lit gem tucked away in the corners of the Walmart plaza beachside. Coasters is an oasis of delectably crafted (properly served) brews in the otherwise 2-4-1 domestic beerscape that is Satellite Beach. Trade the soccer hooligans and British accents for some happy snowbirds and chilled out beach bums, and what have you got? Your new favorite pub. Enjoy.

Drinks where ordered and the bar tender seemed easily irritable when he gave my stepfather an abrupt answer about a drink selection; later in the night I asked the bar tender a question and literally got yelled at in front of my girlfriend, mother and stepfather, it was absolutely unacceptable and indisputably bewildering. This then set the tone for the remainder of the night at that bar and other bars visited. This was the last straw. I visited Coasters several times over a period of a few years and always felt that the customer was a second class citizen. I have been pushed out of Coasters at 11 with all the lights being turned on and the chairs flip; the bar was still half full with people watching a football game that was going into overtime. If they didnt sell the only unique beers in FL I would have never of gone back. Plain and simple, if you want over priced unique beers and love mediocre food and extremely bitter employees that dont mind showing it, please go there I recommend it!

Okay to start I have been eating here for years and I go here every couple weeks. I love the atmosphere and everyone there is very nice! I highly recommend this place!! You dont need to be nicely dressed just go! Now the reason I would dare give 3 stars to a place I love so much and dont get me wrong... If its your first time here you would never notice these things. But they cut down the food sizes. Dont get me wrong I still cant finish a humongous in a single sitting. But why up the prices and downsize the food..... I dont mind paying the extra just keep it back to the size it originally was! My second problem... whatever you guys did you changed the reuben. It is / was my favorite sandwich there; So delicious! But you guys changed it and it doesnt taste the same at all.. which leaves me searching the menu now for something else...

Where do I begin.... they removed the tasting paddles, it took three hours to eat dinner. They got rid of their all day every day specials. Overall a bad experience, I DO NOT SEE MYSELF GOING THERE AGAIN. Just a bad bad experience, and the icing on the cake, on the tv when we arrived, some special show about cleft palate surgeries... yum cleft palates and beer...NO!... so many things to complain about. It used be to one of my favorite places, but now it has fallen, way way down.Aargh so angry,we brought someone from out of town to experience this orgy of beers, it would have been more enjoyable and economical to take him to the beer aisle at publix. I am experiencing a visceral sense of disappointment, it used to be sooo good, but now it inhabits that space vacuous between applebees and arbys.

Talk about a beer selection - youve hit the jackpot here if you are in Melbourne. Just a great list of draught beers to select from. We didnt go here for the beer, that was just icing on the cake. You may expect typical bar food when you walk in but this place seems to be more of a gastropub which a menu for everyone. Had the Beef on Weck which was great and would highly recommend it. There were so many items on the menu I wanted to try but that will have to wait for the next visit. Staff was friendly. It got really busy while we were there and it seemed they were stretched a bit thin but nothing too bad. Definitely worth going back.
