The Simple Suitcase

From weekends away to bucket list days

Colorful Mango Marley's restaurant sign and entrance in Mexico Beach, Florida at dusk

If you’re spending time in Mexico Beach, Florida, you may notice there aren’t a ton of places to eat nearby. Mango Marley’s is one of the local options, and the food made it a worthwhile stop for us.

We had a variety of dishes at our table, including a crispy chicken salad, sandwiches, and other hearty entrées. The food was really good! There was plenty of variety, and the dishes we tried were the best part of our visit.

There were a couple of downsides. The service was only fair, and the prices felt a little high, especially for a casual restaurant. It wasn’t the most impressive dining experience overall, but we were happy with the food.

Would we go back? Yes! With limited choices in the area and food this good, Mango Marley’s is definitely worth considering if you’re staying around Mexico Beach. Just expect to pay a little more, and don’t go in expecting exceptional service.
