The Grape & Grain Exchange

Salutations, I had the opportunity to visit while in town for Jacksonville Caribbean Carnival weekend. (Yes its a thing, check it out in your leisure). OK, back to my experience. I was greeted upon entrance, which is very important to me. I made way in and sat at the bar. The staff was amazing. They provided service with a smile and were very helpful in my selections of for evening. The atmosphere was super fun. Turns out that it was Trivia night. I enjoyed the following items: Saturn, Pain Killer, 1934 Cosmo, A hazy IPA and a most delicious chicken ceasar salad. I know you're thinking such a simple salad. Wait until you have one. Brickoven baked chicken breast, homemade croutons, freshly shaved parmesan cheese & house made dressing! I too was thoroughly amazed. At any rate, if you're near, drop in!

I really REALLY like this place. It was within walking distance of a couple different spots, so convenience is A+! I don’t remember which drink I ordered but it was good. The shining star of the whole experience was the service. The bartenders were quite knowledgeable and super friendly!

Awesome bar, awesome drinks, awesome service (aka Ashley and Jordan)! Celebrating our daughter’s birthday and had an amazing time! V’s pizza is attached so we had plenty of food!
