Food Scene
Best coffee in NE Florida. I recommend the spicy chocolate latte. There are no blenders or whipped cream here (there is a starbucks up the street for that). They offer pastries from Knead bakery and craft beer on tap

My carnivore friends do adore their vegan version of the maple bacon donut (savory coconut shavings replace the bacon on top). They open at 8:30am and sell out of donuts by noon. For Halloween they decorate the top of the jelly donuts with the "Jason" style hockey mask.

Drinks & Nightlife
Oldest/Best craft beer bar in NE Florida. The amazing interior is wallpapered top to bottom in pennies (with a steam punk theme). This is connected to "Kickbacks Gastropub." The food is decent, if they are busy the service can be slow, but the kitchen is open every night until 2am if you need a late bite to eat. I like the poutine (they make a special gravy and the pork belly is one of their specialties). They have a full bar but they are famous for their craft beers and bottle list. The Belgian basement should be open to the public soon (if you are lucky they might give you a tour now).

Best brewery in Jacksonville. They are dog-friendly and always have a rotating (and delicious) food truck outside. I love all four of their rotating imperial stouts, but they are famous for their Belgians and sours, too.
