Description

First City Cafe delivers scratch-made, homestyle fare in a cozy, history-lined space. Praised for its tomato bisque, hearty pressed sandwiches and generous shrimp-and-grits, the menu offers satisfying $7-$11 lunches with occasional discounts. Friendly, prompt staff and a welcoming atmosphere make it a popular spot for local offices and regulars. Clean and charming, it’s a must-try in Rockledge/Viera; minor downsides include slightly elevated prices and under-sweetened iced tea.

Good soup. Great homely feel to the place. Host and everyone was very helpful and always had a smile on their face. Price was a little high but not very bad. Sandwiches were good, great flavor. Had the pulled buffalo chicken on a wrap. Overall you should support local businesses like this one. Will come back again.

This place makes me glad that I work in Rockledge. Eating here once a week is such a treat. Every sandwich on their menu is huge and delicious, REAL home made soups that are amazing. Their tomato bisque is the best I have ever tasted. Wonderful staff. A must try if you have not been here.

I had the palmer with tomato bisque soup for lunch today, and it was fantastic! You definitely have to try it. I'll be returning for sure!
