We went to Bold City Brewery last night to meet up with a group of friends and hear the free live music from a band called Sirsy! Big thanks for Bold City for sponsoring such great quality music! That lead singer was sassy and fun and so real and just - wow - what a voice! Bold City has a dozen large round high top tables and chairs, as well as wall-side rails with stools and a couple low tables, plus seating at the bar and inside the "inner restaurant feel" space. They have a separate and enclosed kitchen where they cook up a selection of easy eating food. Beer selections, wine, a seltzer and a cider are written up on giant blackboards in bright chalk, telling you alcohol content % of each. The bartenders were fast and polite, relatable, and quick with clean up around the venue of all your old empty glasses. Nothing stacked up and they kept the place spotlessly clean. The whole thing has a background of the giant beer "stills"? I don't know what they're called - tall silver things for fermenting the beer. If you didn't know they make the famous Duke's Brown Ale and they sell beer all over in Jacksonville bars. read more

This place had a cool set up. They had a tap rolm amd warehouse. I csnt remember what day we were there but they were just about to start trivia that evening. They had some food specials and menu items. The food was good. Prices semed a bit high. A 10oz stronger beer was $10. Most of the beers were cheaper. They had a decent selection but really i stayed for only one drink due to the prices. typically I have 2-3 read more

I've been coming here every week for the last 3 years for a reason. Bold City has the best staff, delicious food (especially the smash burger on Thursdays and the brunch burger on Sundays), top notch beer selection, and fun events. I'm a huge fan of their bingo night and open mic. Plenty of seating so it's great for big and small groups alike. This is always the place I take my friends and family and I highly recommend to anyone. Great deals and just the best! read more

My husband and I no doubt come here way too often because the vibes are good and the food is even better plus the beer!! Love my Duke's Cold Nose Brown Ale! we also enjoy their smash burgers and I wanted to try something different so I ordered the Bold City Burger, I asked for a single but they ended up giving me a double which is fine because I ended up eating the whole entire thing haha. The bartenders are always nice and friendly and we always enjoy coming up here at the last minute. Service was great as always. And I enjoy the ambiance and atmosphere this place gives. I started coming here for bingo nights on Thursdays before I met my husband and started bringing him and his family here. read more

I don't say this lightly... but Mateo's inside of bold city brewery has hands down the BEST burgers we have had in jax. Since finding it a few weeks ago we have went at least four times just for these incredible burgers. My husband said it's as close as he has found to his beloved in and out burgers from Cali haha. We are so grateful to have such a great place so close to home and we will be back an absurd amount of times this year I'm sure! read more

A few friends and I came here for the first time for trivia (Wednesdays at 7pm) and it was a fun time! The brewery itself is pretty much a warehouse and there's no A/C, just big fans that circulate air to help. The food here is good, better than the typical brewery options. The burgers were super tasty and the loaded fries were amazingggg. The garlic Parmesan fries were okay and the funnel fries I would not order again because it was pretty burnt. Regarding beer selection, they have some IPAs, one seltzer, no sours. read more

Some of my favorite burgers in Jax. Excellent bar food. Friendly servers that are appropriately staffed for good service. Efficient, straightforward, welcoming, Riverside edge. $2 beers on Tuesday and $4 all week! Duval light and the bold city IPA are all I ever need. This is my local, and I'm happy to say so. Love this place. read more

This one of my favorite breweries with food. They host weekly events like trivia, name that tune, bingo, brunch, ect. Their beers are priced fair for craft beer. Mateos is inside the brewery and their food is AMAZING. Their burgers are smash style and delicious. Their fries are perfectly seasoned and crisp. My husband loves the Pizza. Tuesday's is Taco Tuesday (2 Tacos, chips and salsa $10). They have other food specials throughout the week. You can choose to sit inside our in the brewery ware house. The inside is small and intimate. The ware house is bigger and where we usually like to sit, but is subject to the elements (hot/cold days). If you haven't check them out! read more

I'm not sure why it took us so long to visit Bold City Brewery. We've been enjoying their brews at home and around several Jax establishments for some time now. We finally made it to the brewery and it did not disappoint! We loved it so much we planned a second visit weeks later. We already knew we liked their brews so it was nice to try others we hadn't had before. The red ale, both cream ales, hoppy blonde, cold nose and parcel service were all very good. The duke's nitro was at the top of my list for sure. A brewery with good food is top notch in my book. Bold City knows what's going on. Not only are their brews excellent, the food is impressive as well. We had chili cheese fries and burgers during both visits. The chili cheese fries were amazing! The fries themselves were so crispy and delicious. They then top those with NC style chili and two types of cheese - yes, please! Then you have the burgers which they execute perfectly. The smashburgers were so good. The smash sauce was delicious. Pickles and raw onions as toppings paired up very well. The sliders were just as good, the perfect size if you want a smaller version of their smashburger. The caprese burger I had during my first visit was to die for. The house made pesto was delicious. I also really loved the balsamic drizzle. Mozzarella and provolone make for a thick layer of cheese which was fantastic. It was one of the most delicious speciality burgers I've ever had. The service was great both times. The bartenders were helpful and the kitchen staff was super friendly. Keep up the great work Bold City! read more

The beer here is pretty amazing. Every beer I tried was a hit. I would definitely come back for the beer. The ambiance is a bit weird though. Not sure if it was just because it was bingo night, but there were some weird people at the brewery. Generally unfriendly and off putting. Service by the staff seemed efficient and they were friendly. read more

I'm not much of a beer drinker, but I've also never been to Bold City Brewery just to check it out. I won an Instagram contest to attend a show featured two of my favorite Nickelodeon stars (from my generation) as they reminisce on their time working on a show called All That so beer or no beer, I was going. They offer other drinks there, even food, but unfortunately I couldn't partake in any as I was waiting for my intermittent fasting to end. My boyfriend had a Mimosa and a Killer Whale Ale which he really enjoyed. I was super jelly. I really enjoyed the old warehouse-y feel to the place as it doesn't pretend to be some fancy brewery. I could definitely see myself hanging out there again. read more

My bf and I stopped in before the shrimp game last week. There were only about four other people inside, the bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. I tried a great nitro red ale that was unlike anything I've had before! We sat in the cute window seat area, appreciated the cool photography that documents Jacksonville's history, then went on to get dinner nearby before the game. I wish I'd come here sooner! It's a low key place with great beer. We'll definitely be back! read more

Plus, you have a chance to win money while doing so.

Bold City Brewery - Warehouse bar - Breweries Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

Very cool neighborhood brewery tucked away on the north end of Riverside. Plenty of parking around the building, fun and open atmosphere, plenty of weekly events, and great beer selection. They also have a small kitchen on site that serves great food. Recommend taco Tuesdays but there are good and well priced options throughout the week. Downside, there's usually only one cook so the wait times can be a bit long on busier nights (Th, Fr, and Sa) but at least there's plenty of beer! read more

Though not a beer drinker (I'm an oenophile) I've been wanting to visit Bold City Taproom. Attended their 10th year anniversary last year and enjoyed my first Bold City Beer. Finally tonight (Thursday) stopped by and ordered the sampler. There were 10 samples plus a Sierra Nevada type. Our host explained each one before tasting & suggested we start with the Killer Whale and end with the Roxy Imperial Seasonal Ale. My favorite was the last one Roxy ... must be cause it had the higher alcohol content....hmmm. I liked it so much that ordered a glass. It tasted awesome cold. Aside from the taproom they also had seating in the brewery a few steps away. Our host was extremely helpful when I told her it was my first time in the taproom. She answered all our questions. Pleasant surprise when she gave me a "I kicked a keg" glass & learned that they were changing the keg when I ordered my Roxy. Another surprise my Roxy was free as a 1st timer. Wow my lucky night. Finally, I found a local beer I like. I'm expanding my adult beverage horizon. I'll be back tomorrow with my 10th yr Bold City Anniversary growlers for more Roxy. read more

Beer was good on its own. Coipled with the food and the place was awesome. Atmosphere is quirky cool, would definitely recommend a visit.

I follow them on Instagram but unfortunately never visited them. What a cool little place!! I walked in and instantly noted that it was a cool chill place. I didn't need to be someone or prove anything. Just live the moment enjoy the ambience and people. I met a cool dude with an interest in theater or as he said theatre! It felt very homey. I tried a couple of IPA's. Good choices. They have a beer whose proceeds all go to charity. How cool is that!! Well. I am likely to return here. Did they say $10 for a gallon??!!?!?!? Is That even doable!? You bet ya! New found digs. Only recommendation is higher alcohol content options. read more

When we first pulled up I will admit that I was questionable about BCB. But once you step inside the warehouse/brewing area it is such a cool vibe! There are outdoor tables and a little bar to sit at. The tasting room is tiny but super personable! Big John was working and he made our first visit very memorable! We got an impromptu tour and the Tour Guide was very passionate and informative. We started with the sampler and loved the 1901 Red Ale! The seasonal is an apricot wheat, which is fantastic!! The killer whale is a standard golden ale that is super refreshing. Duke's brown is also delicious and I love that it has the family dogs name and picture. We followed our sampler up with the apricot wheat pints. Also, found out about the Jax Ale Trail! It's a passport with 8 of the breweries in Jax and when you frequent one, you get a stamp for that location. Once the passport is full, you send it in for a free t-shirt! Love it! I always liked BCB beer but after seeing how personable big John and Tour Guide were, I am a proud supporter and purchaser of BCB! read more

On my recent trip to Jacksonville, my visit to Bold City Brewery was absolutely one of my favorite parts! First of all, this is a bit off the beaten path (thanks for the heads up, Yelp). There's a parking lot, and the entrance is to the right when you pull in. I promise, it's there. When we entered the small (but big enough) bar area, we were greeted by... basically everyone!!! They found out we were first timers, and we were treated to samples of multiple beers. This was awesome! We quickly had the regulars chatting it up with us: welcoming us, telling us what's good, telling us about other breweries, and more! They were a fun group! I also really enjoyed the beers. I drank mostly lighter options, but they also had a mint chocolate chip stout, so I sampled that. If you go through to the larger brewing area (also with tables, chairs, etc.), you'll see La Bodega, a kitchen that serves food (during limited hours) at Bold City. We hadn't planned on eating dinner here, but after seeing someone else's sandwich, we were in. So, if you can eat there while drinking Bold City, I recommend it. The beer, the vibe, the company... I really enjoyed our visit, and I would recommend it to anyone (who drinks beer)! read more

Slowly checking out the Jacksonville brewery scene and Bold City is nearing the top of my list for a variety of reasons. Ryan approached us as we arrived and offered us a free flight since it was our first time at Bold City - um yes, and they say chivalry is dead. Ryan and the rest of the staff were all very sweet and helpful. The beers themselves were great, namely the stout, pumpkin ale, and bourbon aged mad manatee IPA stood out. We sadly did not go on the tour, but I will definitely be returning to experience it and try more beers. Amazing service, great beers, and more than reasonable prices - put this place at the top of your list! read more

We stopped in today after the CoRK Open Studios and was absolutely surprised with how much fun we had. We started with sampling some of the taps then taking a seat with our beers. Within moments, we were asked if we wanted to do a tour with some others which we gladly accepted. The tour guide was amazing, full of information, and had great stories. It really turned our whole experience upside down, and we left laughing and a few more beers in. This is a must-go place, and I suggest taking the tour! read more

We have been huge fans of Bold City Brewery since they opened years ago on Roselle Street. To be honest, as residents of Riverside, we were hesitant about a brewery so close to home, but they've been the best of neighbors. Not only do they put out an incredible product, they have a great facility. The taproom was originally just a small room, but with popularity, it expanded. Now you have the original room, small and intimate, and then the larger area facing the actual brewery. They are open Thursday through Saturday. Saturdays they have free tours. Check their website and sign up for their email newsletter to make sure you keep abreast of all the happenings here. read more
