Poor service on a slow weekday. Sad excuse for a Freebird successor

Would not allow a foreign military entry. Despite obvious queues. Not a veteran friendly venue….if I could give 0 stars I would.

They do played good music and the bartender made great drinks! Decently nice sized place with pool tables and a ping pong table with an outside seating.

Cool vibe and atmosphere on the bottom floor with a good mix of music playing. Bar service on the bottom floor took forever, 15+ minutes to be acknowledged. Upstairs music was next level horrible, it was like they were trying to accommodate every single demographic at the same time. It was painful, couldn’t last more than 5 minutes listening to it.

It is a nice bar. Good crowd. Was a bit young as we were the old codgers lol. But they played a good selection of music and drinks were very well made. The crowd really enjoyed themselves as we did too. We woiuld definitely go back. The drinks were not bad priced. We had an old fashioned and Mai Tai. Very good taste.

had a nice time at this bar specifically for its outdoor space and cornhole!

unfortunately at the end of the night they overcharged us by $200+ dollars, which they insisted we had to pay. the whole night we paid entirely in cash except for 1 single round of drinks which we put on a credit card.

instead of closing out the cash payments, they put all of our drinks on our credit card and double charged us.

also very minor but the karaoke guy kept skipping our song- kept telling us we were up next and just played his friends’ songs :(

overall great bar for the cornhole and outdoor space, just double check your bill at the end of the night.

We’ve been coming to Surfer the Bar since it first opened, and we always love the vibe here. The music, the ocean view, and the energy are great—but this visit was extra special thanks to our bartender, Miles. Hands down our favorite! He’s got such a great personality, super friendly, and just makes you feel welcome the moment you sit down. We had fun chatting with him over a couple of drinks.

At night, Surfer is one of the best spots in Jax Beach—upstairs you can dance to house music with a gorgeous ocean view from the balcony, and downstairs there’s often live music. Just be aware they do have a dress code at night (no sleeveless shirts for men), which caught us by surprise considering we were there just a couple hours earlier.

Still, Miles and the great atmosphere will keep us coming back!

Drinks are great, can be a bit pricey. Atmosphere can be off the chain. Great for a night of dancing.

Place is mid at best. The whole staff thinks they’re better than you, lots of RBF and eye rolls and flat out ignoring customers in this place. The pending charges (over charges I will add) linger on your bank account for days on end before clearing. Do better surfer bar.
