A note to our community. 🤍
As a brand-new small business, every reservation matters. Every table we hold is a table we’re counting on, and every night directly impacts the people who work incredibly hard to make Ora de Nuit special.
Unfortunately, this past Friday we experienced 25 separate fake reservations. Those empty tables represented guests we could have welcomed, revenue our new business depended on, and most importantly, money lost by our hardworking staff.
Because of this, we’re making a small change to our reservation policy.
Going forward, a credit card will be required to secure a reservation. Your card will NOT be charged when booking.
We simply ask that cancellations or changes be made at least 2 hours before your reservation. Cancellations within that window or no-shows may be subject to a $25 cancellation fee, at our discretion.
We understand that life happens. This policy isn’t about penalizing our guests. It’s about protecting our small business, our team, and the opportunity for another guest to enjoy that table.
The response from Cocoa Village and the Brevard community since we opened has been incredible. We’re grateful for every person who has walked through our doors, shared a meal with us, recommended us to a friend, or simply cheered us on.
Thank you for supporting our dream. 🥂
