My friends and I had such a great experience here last night. It was so lively and everyone was so kind and welcoming!! I highly recommend if you’re looking for a fun spot in Jacksonville. Bonus points because the owner is SO sweet
As a straight guy, I found it welcoming and friendly.
AMAZZZZZZINNNG vibes. Glad I stumbled across this bar my friend and I had a ball. The bartender was friendly and music was great
Excellent place in Jacksonville for parties. Very fun and versatile. Especially the Latin night. I hope to continue enjoying the place for much longer. Just one suggestion: I think they should find a way to improve bar service on very busy nights to reach more customers. Sometimes the wait for a drink is too long, even though I see that the bartenders give 200%, they are very friendly and polite, but they really can't keep up on busy nights. Otherwise, I'm 100% satisfied and I reiterate my good opinion of the place. Congratulations.
We went here after a concert for a few drinks. The "we" was myself, my wife, and another married couple. We are all approaching fifty and we are all straight (as far as I can tell). I don't think we are Hardwick's typical clientele, but we felt welcomed and had a great time. There was a drag revue and it was Slut Pop Night. The music was incredibly loud and the club was filled with an eclectic and diverse group of people HAVING FUN. Famous times!
