Flying Iguana Taqueria and Tequila Bar
Beaches Town Center taqueria with a tequila list in the hundreds, one block back from the ocean. The bar is serious and the room still takes a stroller.
Bars Jax: Neptune Beach
Beaches Town Center on the north side of Atlantic Boulevard. Small, walkable, and the quietest of the three at dinner.
Pete's Bar
Duval County liquor license number one, issued in 1933 the year Prohibition ended, in a building that was Jensen's Market before that. Cash, pool tables, and no interest whatsoever in being discovered.
The Lemon Bar
A bar on the sand at the end of Lemon Street. Several listings still carry an old Atlantic Boulevard address; its own site says 2 Lemon St, and the ocean is the rest of the description.
