Heidi’s Jazz Club is THE place to go for sophisticated entertaining and dining on the Space Coast. If they have cucumber soup on the menu, order that and think of me!

But most importantly, if you want a wonderful spot to celebrate New Year’s Eve, this is it…you’ll be able to get dressed up AND have a place to go. But you have to get your reservations in now because the special evening sells out. This year, the entertainer will be Sally Hart with the Ron Teixeira Trio. The evening begins at 8 p.m. and includes a four-course meal, party favors and champagne. The cost to attend that is $110 plus gratuity. There will be a cash bar available that evening. For more information about what’s on the menu, click here.

Its house band, the Ron Teixeira Trio, is simply fantastic. They can play anything and with great jazz style. Regular vocal artists are Sybil Gage on Thursdays. Steve Kirsner on Wednesday and Friday evenings. Jam sessions Sunday evenings. Throughout December, Israeli entertainer Hella performs Saturdays 8 p.m. to midnight.

In addition, you can order from the menu which comes from the top notch kitchen of the adjacent Heidelberg Restaurant. There’s a fantastic bar. Elegant service. You go once and you’ll get hooked.

You can also enjoy dinner at the adjacent Heidelberg Restaurant or on balmy days or cool evenings, on their shaded Patio. Wed-Sat 11am – 10pm, Sun. 5pm – 10pm.

Heidi’s Jazz Club is at 7 N Orlando Ave, Cocoa Beach, FL. Call 321-783-4559, visit heidisjazzclub.com or click on their ad.
