Deerfield Beach: American Rock (December 2016)

My spouse and I stopped at the American Rock Bar and Grill for drinks on a Saturday evening (New Year’s Eve) in late December 2016. The bar/restaurant is open daily for lunch, dinner, and drinks. 

American Rock is located in the Cove Shopping Center (which includes other restaurants such as the Tipperary Pub, Le Val de Loire, Casa Maya, Los Andes, Taj Indian Cuisine, the Sticky Bun, and Two Georges at the Cove). American Rock offers free parking in the Cove parking lot. You can also walk to the American Rock from nearby hotels like the Comfort Inn and the Wyndham (and although it is a bit farther, you can also from the Embassy Suites, where we stayed).


American Rock features two seating areas: the main room (with seats at the bar, tables, and booths) and a second room (unused when we visited, but reportedly with a second bar, dance floor, and billiards table). Outside of the front entrance, a few small tables are arranged on the concrete landing (and under the roof overhang), plus a larger outdoor patio area (also unused when we visited) is accessible from the rear dining area. The interior restaurant décor features rock posters and other music memorabilia. Entertainment and events (such as karaoke, comedy night, samba dancing, live music, DJs) is sometimes available on particular nights of the week.


American Rock serves American cuisine including wings, nachos, potato skins, burgers, pizza, and entrees (such as pasta, steaks, and seafood). We did not sample the food because we planned to have dinner elsewhere later that night. The restaurant offers two-for-one drink specials (but both drinks must be the same kind), and even three-for-one specials at specific times. Truthfully, the frozen pina colada that I ordered was not particularly tasty, but I drank a second one anyway since it was basically included (as a two-for-one). We sat at the bar, and our female bartender was friendly and efficient.


Stop in at American Rock Bar and Grill for a drink (or two or three!)
