“I always come here to see and be seen! The drinks are expertly crafted. Why not? Very cool 😎 place. Small tasting menu rocks.“

“Best brewery in town. My favorite is their smoked wings. I actually like to get them naked. They have a really good taste. The services is always on point and the owners are so cool.“

“Excellent food, excellent service from Omar, fun atmosphere. A must try!“

“Great little spot. We enjoyed the food. It was just some good ol' smoked BBQ. I really enjoyed the sauces. They added a lot of flavor to the meal. I had a tri-tip sandwich. My wife had a brisket sandwich. The Tri-Tip was a bit tough, no surprise with that cut of meat. The Brisket was a perfect smoked tender. I want to go back when they have their ribs in stock.“

“Great Peeps to hang out with. Amazing food n cold beer.“

“A friend & I had lunch here on Saturday. The food was great (one of the best burgers I've had), the beer cold, the owner very accommodating & the crowd was friendly. Before leaving my friend & I both sampled the sangria and agreed it's amazing. Needless to say, I'll be back & I encourage others to try this place. They have a pool table and games & seems very kid friendly.“

“Hey everyone! I have to rave about an incredible bar that deserves all the love. If you’re looking for that cozy, welcoming spot where everyone knows your name and the vibe is all about good people and great times, this is the place to be. Caitlin, the bartender, has always been amazing, and I had the pleasure of meeting the owner last night—she’s beyond awesome! It’s a beer-only bar with very reasonable prices and an atmosphere that feels like home. Let’s show this gem the love it deserves!“

“Truly fantastic dive bar.
The beer selection is great with a handful of local and domestic taps. The fridge has a large rotating stock of craft and import cans and bottles as well as a few sake choices.
The small food selection is tasty, the Cuban is great for $8 and the boiled peanuts are a savory late night snack.
There are also a number of weekly events as well as irregular happenings here.
Monday the garden club meets out back
Tuesday is trivia with Shelton as well as $2 Guinness pints until the keg kicks
Wednesday is Karaoke night“

“Great place to chill for the night“

“Stopped in one of my all time favorite craft beer and package stores anywhere!!. They've added some games and a nice sitting area since Ive been in, really nice touches. The craft draft beer selection is varied from sours, lagers, IPAs and dark beer and I like a taste of everything!!! So I do!! Pictures to show. I picked up some of my favorite 450 North Brewing and Woven Waters beers. Britany was our server that day and did an outstanding job. I left feeling satisfied and happy. Thank you Britany and 9 zero pour!!“

“This is one of the go to spots for the guys and I. This bar has by for the cheapest drinks in town hands down. Dart, pool, juke box, you name it, TT has it to entertain. Bartenders there are absoluty wonderful. Only thing is it's it's smoking bar so if your not into that you prob won't stay long.“

“Pool Darts Pinball Pacman Galava Karaokê ....reminds me of Vegas club“

“One of my fav spots! Coolest place around“

“Just a good ole place to hang out and have a beer“

“Wonderful little spot that offers everything from live bands to Bingo night. They have a Dart teams that compete and the bartenders are great people. It isn't high-end but rather a neighborhood gathering place. You might interrupt an 80's sing -a-long while drinking a beer vibe. Great place.“

“before last night it had been a while since I had been the trip to the triangle. and what a great feeling to be welcomed as if I had not miss the day with everyone's hellos and hey how you been felt right at home. The triangle will always hold a special place in my heart as their management allowed me to hold my uncle's celebration of life there a couple of years ago. and memory of games played with him on the pool tables there I always bring smiles to my face after last night I realized how Rusty I've become on the pool table so I'm sure to be back real soon to practice some and I recommend anybody who would like to have a good time relax and a nice cool beer to do the same again thanks to everybody there I appreciate you guys“

“Great place beautiful sunsets“

“Awesome place! Everyone was so Nice! Service was great! When you hang out at the roost they make you feel like you’re home and been there before! Cool place! I’ll be back!“

“If you havent went you are missing out !!! Check it out!!!

I have had the pleasure to go to this place with my family and friends (table of 7). We sat outside with a very beautiful, scenic view of a pond, and its beautiful nature. We were greeted by executive Chef stephen. He was amazing, made the atmosphere very hospitable and personable. We had the best experience! The other chef that was whipping it up in the kitchen was chef Joe and he too was very pleasant. The menu is off the chain and was made by executive Chef Steven. We got a little bit of everything. But i got the NY Strip Steak and it was the best steak I've ever had!!! One thing that reallystood out to me about executive chef Steven, was that he said he makes all of his dishes with love and that made it all the more better. Thank you Chefs!!“

“A Great Place to Throw Some Darts 🎯🎯 Listen to Some Music 🎶 Have a Drink 🥃 🍺 and Hangout With Some Amazing People!“

“Stayed in Southbank Hotel 5 nights, didn't really want to drive anywhere not being familiar with Jacksonville. So we tried Johnnies 2nd night and was hooked. We ate there every night. The short ribs, salmon and pork chop plates were amazing! The service was as good as the food. Will miss this place!“

“The vibe of Dos Gatos was really cool. It actually didn’t seem like it would have amazing cocktails. But boy was I pleasantly surprised! The bartender made great drinks and they had a really expensive menu with great drink options. The espresso martini had lots of foam and a great taste!“

“Amazing experience!!!! we did the tasting menu with a bottle of champagne and were blown away. Service and cuisine were exceptional!!!!!“

“I have been a bartender for 31 years. I’m 49 years old. I can tell everyone how mind blown impressed I am about, how spotless clean this bar is. I have literally talked about it the 3 hrs I have been here.
Brandon and Holly was simply amazeing.
I am a tough one to impress and I’m over impressed.
The owner and manager of Sherwoods I give so much respect to.
U are holding down a diamond in the ruff. I promise u all my years behind the bar, u got a great thing going here.“

“Excellent venue to hang with locals. Great service and local live music!“

“Tiny venue so you are up close and personal with the band. No more than 20 feet from the stage to the back of the viewing area. Amazing to see bands that close!“

“If you want to have Albanian style coffee, you have to check this place! Most customers are always men ( I walk by there often but I don’t see women very often) and they enjoy smoking inside and outside so you will feel like you are in Albania ?? The staff are friendly. I always go their outside table because I don’t like the smell of cigarettes“

“Went in just to check it out. I don't even club but this place has a nice vibe. The food is great. The owners and all staff were kind. The age group was 18 to 46. No fighting nor other issues. Everyone was just having fun. I recommend you yo visiti this place. MAKE SURE YOU GET SOME FOOD. They have a nice size menu. They even had oysters. The thing that impressed me the most was that they give you three different dipping sauces. At no extra cost.... Buffalo, sweet n tangy and ranch.“

“excellent mixed drinks.. and can get a bottle for the road.. one stop shop“

“For a small club. The vibe is low key and up beat. Customer service is on point. The staff is accommodating and the security make you feel safe. The facility is clean and the patrons are friendly. The club music caters to all listeners. The daytime happy hour is definitely respectable. The club managers stay on the floor to make sure the club's motion is positive!“

“Relaxing and peaceful views here! When I come here, I only dine outside in the back facing the ocean. Personally, I enjoy coming here during the week (during the week they’re only open Wednesday through Friday 7am to 11am) because it’s typically never crowded and I enjoy the peace and tranquility that come with the amazing views and ocean breeze. The menu items are very good quality and reasonably priced. My only reason for docking a star on my review is because they’re booked quite frequently (usually majority of the restaurant is reserved), service is not the fastest (however, the managing owner Carol is kind and amiable), and on numerous occasions they don’t answer the phone so it’s difficult to plan breakfast or brunch when they don’t answer the phone and on several occasions, I’ve had to be turned away on a empty hungry stomach which isn’t a good feeling. Otherwise, I’d definitely recommend checking this place out if you have the opportunity. My personal recommendations are the mimosas (get the bottomless jug) and the blue crabomelette.“

“Love rain dogs!! I'm a rain dog too!“

“Food is just basic fried bar food. Great for keeping some carbs in you. Service is absolutely amazing, everyone is on point and loves to talk. Atmosphere is also amazing, especially later at night. Definitely recommend showing up and enjoying yourself.“
