Lovely bar on the beach in the Hampton hotel! Reasonable priced drinks with friendly bartenders! The drinks were pretty strong which is a great thing haha. We ordered the Tide Perfect Mai Tai & Elderflower Smash which the Mai Tai tasted like a sex in the beach on the fruity side and the Elderflower was more sweet & sour. Highly recommend if you are staying at the hotel or coming to the beach! read more

Great bar - love the oceanfront atmosphere. Bartender team (Miah and Rowena) were awesome. Perfect spot!!

This is def a hidden little secret at the beaches. Located at the Hampton Inn and right on the beach, the scenery and the live music is amazing. Bartenders are so nice and quick. We sat at the cabana and enjoyed some great plates. The shrimp was fresh and seasoned perfectly. Mango salsa is spicy so proceed w caution there. Definitely go check this place out. read more

My first time at this business I was not impressed. Tonight they redeemed themselves. We had a burger, chicken fingers with fries and quesadillas . All were very good and everyone was happy. The service was the best thanks to Rowena. Thanks to her we will return! read more

Fun spot right on the beach. Came here a few times during our visit. Nice bartenders who can make lots of different stuff and keep things moving. Really enjoyed my fish tacos for lunch. Great quesadilla and wings too. Yummy eats for sure and nice spot to grab a drink and enjoy the beach too. Weekends had live music outside as well. Love those beachy vibes all the way. read more

Pretty standard beach bar at a connecting hotel with beach access and a basic food menu. 4 stars because the wait staff was a little lacking. read more

We wanted to have a drink on the beach that was child friendly, so my husband suggested Tides Beach Bar. We got there around 4:30 pm and it was pretty crowded, but not crowded enough where we couldn't find a hightop, which was awesome news for us. They were also having some happy hour specials $4 Bud Light, $4 Red Stripe, $4 16 oz. Kona. I originally wanted a frozen drink, but due to the bar being a bit crowded, I opted for something quicker and got a Kona. The Kona was cold and it's the first time I've seen it come in 16 oz. cans. Not necessarily groundbreaking news, but I was excited about it. The views were pretty good. You can see a bit of beach, but mostly dunes. There was a nice breeze and also a little "sand pit" for the kiddos or those that want to play cornhole. All in all it was a nice place to stop and have a drink. Pros: -Close to the beach -Variety of beer specials Cons: -I wish I could have seen more of the beach Tips: Check out their happy hour specials. read more

Unfortunately after my experience this past weekend I'm going to have to lower my review for the Tides Beach Bar & Grill. I took my visiting friend from KY to the beach. I like to sit behind the Hampton Inn as they have this bar/restaurant right on the beach. We went up to have lunch and a few drinks. We placed our food and drink orders. We waited for our drink nearly 15 minutes. But our food took nearly an hour. We ordered a chicken quesadilla and french fries. We wanted chips and salsa but they were out of chips. Mind you it was Saturday afternoon around 2 PM. So we went with the fries. After about 40 minutes we started asking our server to check on our order. On several other occasions eating here prior I never waited longer than 20 minutes for food. We saw several people that ordered food after us be served. And we were told one of the couples was getting married in the hotel the following weekend. Not cool to jump food orders ever! The chicken quesadilla was delicious. The french fries were not hot because they had been waiting on the chicken quesadilla apparently. They comped our food and one drink each which was much appreciated. And I can't forget loved the live entertainment. I was also told there is a new GM managing the hotel. I hope you will read my review and make some changes quick or you're going to lose this local. read more

Tides Beach Bar & Grille - Seating over looking the beach and ocean - Tiki Bars Near Me - Jacksonville Beach, Florida

Great atmosphere and great service. The drinks and food a perfect for a day at the beach.

This tiki bar is located in the Hampton Inn Jacksonville Beach. This post is only for drinks as we didn't eat, and they are tasty. While some might think they are a little on the pricey side, you have to remember your on the beach at a hotel. They do have daily specials, see photo, that are very reasonable. The staff we friendly and the atmosphere was wonderful. Will definitely come back. read more

A secret hidden gem! An incredible view of the Ocean with some redressing drinks and good food! It's been getting busier now that it's summer and it seems to not be so secret any more but I still love coming here. read more

Nice thing about this place is that no matter if your staying at one of the hotels or passing through you can stop and hang out for a while. Easy access to the beach. Most staff is pretty friendly and quick to serve you. By far our best bartender was Gordi. Really personable and seemed to be pretty good at working the bar and our orders for food. (Too bad we had the pleasure of meeting him on our last day) We stayed at the Hampton on this trip and were taken care of with no problems. Food is pretty good. Service was good and the atmosphere was perfect for hanging out seaside. read more

The drinks are strong and reasonably priced. The bartenders are great. We didn't try any food, but it smelled good. They also have terrific specials every day. The Goombay Smash and dreamscicle were especially good. read more

Ok little bar and grill next to beach. Nice that it was outside and good weather for November. Loved the live music during the daytime, but stopped at 5PM. The drinks were good and decently priced and the bar staff was nice and quick. The food was just alright. The shrimp tacos was wasa little overcooked, the burger was one like you'd get out of freezer section of grocery store . But the onion rings was good and the buffalo wings was great! There was no wait staff when we was there. We had to go order at bar and pick up food when it came out. No problem, but some people would mind. Covered corn hole and the sandy seating area is nice too. read more

Came here after a day at the beach. Courtney was our server and was an excellent mixologist. The Gumbay drink was delicious as was the Conch Fritters. read more

Had the best day today! We are locals and stopped in for lunch and had the best service from El Gordo! The front porch lemonade was delicious. He encouraged the mahi tacos (which were delicious) and we ordered the quesadilla based on reviews and it was fantastic! Can't wait to come back and see Gordie!! read more

Terrible service. We waited an absurd amount of time for subpar food. Burned burgers. Cold fries. Even though it's the only beach bar in this area, it is not even worth considering. 0/10 would NOT recommend. read more

Tides Beach Bar & Grille - Burned to a crisp - Tiki Bars Near Me - Jacksonville Beach, Florida

Pleasantly disappointed. I went there since I was new to the area and was a recommended local spot. The setting is perfect, the weather was perfect. However, we had to witness the staff going back and forth to deliver orders. I felt really bad for bartenders and servers as they had to run back and forth to ring up orders. Kris and Denise were amazing! Even with all the frustration they always had a smile! Being a new local, I really hope they can get managed better, which seems to be lacking in a major way. I'd love to come back since the service was great and the location is primo! read more

Very poor service by Elena! Not friendly, welcoming or even helpful. Seemed hungover. GREAT SPOT!!!! Very poor service by Elena. Told her that i almost left a $0.75 tip but rounded up to a dollar because it was easy and she said why would you ever leave $ 0.75..???? I SHOULD have responded with "you're right!!! All you did was poor a beer from a draft you rude person" and left nothing. Be grateful for anything.... tips are based on service..... in retrospect l, i wish i would have left NOTHING read more

We had a really bad day before coming here. Our waitress Courtney was AMAZING!!! She gave great recommendations and was very friendly and attentive. Great beach side dining as well. Shrimp was huge and had a great taste. read more

Great service and great drinks. Updated and beach bar menu which means simple but quality eats. Enjoy the view!!

This is the absolutely the best location on Jacksonville Beach, whoever manages this location is underutilizing its potential, stay open at least till midnight, advertise your location from the beach. This is a money maker and you aren't making it happen. read more

I'll keep the review short and sweet! Exceptional location, friendly staff, great drinks and food! Megan has served me at this location and her hospitality is first class! I will be coming back to see her in the near future! :) read more

So we sat ourselves and sat at a table for over thirty minutes and the servers didn't even look in our direction. My boyfriend went to the bar to get us a drink and got ignored there too. He eventually got us drinks..... And they are ok. Not really worth the wait. Will be going somewhere else for food. read more

My favorite bar. Laid back with great views. Service is great. Haven't tried the food but the drinks are great

Great atmosphere! Right by the beach, cute little tiki bar. Currently a two person reggae band is playing. Only downside: service is kinda slow. read more

Horrible service. Couldn't even get acknowledged after 20 minutes of sitting down. Wasn't even busy either. Seen other people frustrated as well at the service or lack of. read more

Definitely cool spot. Slow service. (I ordered a salad with fish and side of fries maybe 30 mins ago or more- it's not that packed here- so severs are good, just time it takes to get food seems long) Only downside. Servers are sweet, location right on beach. Sound of waves in background. Good daily drink specials. So if you're in the mood to chill- perfect place. If you're on a time schedule you may want to pick somewhere else. read more

Incredibly slow service. It took 30 minutes to come back and tell us they were out of our orders. When questioned about the poor service, they basically didn't care. Would NEVER go here. There are so many better places at the beach that actually care about their customers read more
