Tides Beach Bar and Grille

Extremely disappointed. I’ve stayed here a couple times & never had an experience like the one I did today but this one definetly changed my perspective. My friends & I went to grab a couple drinks & some food & when the bill came we were unaware they didn’t accept Apple Pay. Our cards were over a 30 minute walk away on the beach with our other friends so we asked if they could manually input a card. We were told yes & proceeded to do so. An older white lady working by the bar inserted herself in the situation & made disrespectful & ignorant comments about me & my friends not having money & tried to completely embarrass me for a couple laughs at the bar. It wasn’t appreciated & completely disgusting. My friends & I walked back, got the cards, & paid for our meal with no problem & made sure we took care of our server because he was great & understanding about the situation. No one was trying to leave without paying & it was just a misunderstanding that could’ve went without the ignorant comments. Completely unnecessary & disgusting. Never been made to feel more uncomfortable.

Terrible service!! We waited for over 30 minutes before server came to table. He refused to take our food order with the drink order. We then waiting another 30 minutes to receive drinks and place food order. Food was subpar. Did have a nice atmosphere though.

Couldn't get in. Called to ask how, I she didn't know.

Great place with great food and good service. We tried different food and everything tasted perfect. It’s a bar where you can sit and enjoy sipping watching the ocean.

Love the fish tacos! Great vacation vibe right on the beach. Open to the public even though it’s on the hotel property

10/10. Food was good. Came right out ((steak tacos, peel and eat shrimp, and fried shrimp/sweet potato fries)

Chris was great! Great energy!!!

Great environment. Great atmosphere. Great

Love the beach location and vibe. The food is good but the service is consistently poor.
This most recent visit, we waited 30 minutes before server came to our table and this was after I went to the bar and requested service and a menu.
Server was pleasant, took our order and brought drinks - that's the last we ever saw her so had to go to the bar to cash out.

Couldn't say how the food is, because no one ever acknowledged we were there. We sat down and there was only one server we could see working. I tried to catch her eye a few times, but she was busy. After about 15 minutes of never being greeted or given menus, we gave up and left. Bummer, because the atmosphere was great - but we were hungry and nobody seemed interested in selling us any food.

The food is decently good, but the service is hit and miss. Sometimes we have good service and other times they completely ignore you for 30 minutes. There were 4 of us waiting for half an hour and they didn’t even acknowledge that we were there, and it’s not the first time we’ve experienced this. A waitress walked to the people right next to us and asked if they wanted another round after we had been sitting and waiting to even be spoken to, for 20 minutes. Then a waiter was literally leaning on the bar, playing on his phone after walking past us several times, doing his best to not even make eye contact with any of us. Not sure that I’ll ever go back after feeling so unwelcome.

My husband and I are here from Atlanta visiting the Mayport RV, taking the weekend off. We were told of this place for great food. I work until 9pm, so we decided to get on down to check the place out.First, the front desk receptionist never got off her butt to greet us, not even attending the front desk!Second, the moment we stepped into the restaurant, as we passed the bar, no one said anything! We stopped by the bar to ask if we were in the right place. Bartender stated “yes, you found us” Before even sitting another lady behind the bar, “the kitchen is closed”. Bartender stated “no, they have 10 minutes” Great! I order a drink and we order food based on the recommendation of two ladies relaxing at the bar. Immediately our check was given to us. Two other patrons sat at the bar, while waiting for our food. There was also a lady and her dog there as well. Our food comes out…in to go containers! I start to unpack them. Bartender states “before you guys get settled I am about to close. You can sit anywhere else” as her hand motioned to close the gate above us! Mind you 15 minutes later after we finished our meal, bar was open and patrons were still relaxing at the bar! Also, do keep in mind all the other patrons at the bar were not treated this way, and were allowed to continue consuming their meal and drinks at the bar, even after arriving after us! As we left, the bar was still open!Point is, this experience made us feel completely unwelcome! It was as if, yes we patronized the place, but was told to get out right after! My husband is military and has served this country for 32 years, and to be treated like “unwelcome” is very unsettling. The food was amazing, but we did not appreciate the way we were treated at all!
