The Tavern by AIBC located at 318 Centre St, Fernandina Beach, FL 32034 is a fantastic gem! Really, really good food and service! Manager Brett speaks in a video in my review about the place. Cheesteak, Fish and Chips (best of best!), and their Burgers are outstanding. Gigantic Pretzels also. Reasonable prices Highly recommended! It’s a very cool brewery too.

The moment we walked in, I knew I would like it. The decor was fresh but comfortable. The large bar is in the center with tables and booths on each side. Some outdoor seating is also available. There are a couple TV's on the wall but I would not call it a sports bar. The three of us decided to sit at the bar though we could have been seated immediately at a table. The stools were comfortable. Drinks: I ordered a Chocolate Stout (Verona), my husband had a martini and my friend had seltzer since she was DD. My stout was good but a little "hot" - more than what I have had with an 8.9ABV in they past. My husband later had a red (Grace) that was very good, not like any red I ever had before. Food: Both my husband and my friend had the Shrimp Rigatoni. It is her favorite dish at AIBC. Both brought some home because the portion was more than ample. I had Jerk Shrimp Kabobs. The shrimp was cooked perfectly, not chewy and flavored well with jerk seasoning. It was served with rice and beans. Bonus: You can buy cans of AIBC beers to take home! They have a machine at the bar that is used to seal the can as you watch. Very cool. Looking forward to the next time we stop in.

This place gets a 5 star review because of the cute alleyway to the brewery and the aesthetics on that side of the building. The beers were tasty and there was a small yet good selection of beers. Overall, we enjoyed sitting outside to drink our beers. There weren’t many people when we were there so it made it even better.

Dani was our server and she was killing it while in the weeds. We had the “Get Fizzical” and “Let that Mango” along with a brewers salad and prime rib sandwich all consistently great! I had another drink with the fancy flower and gold ice cube as well. Was a nice end to our “hurricane” day

delicious, 5 star kids burger, best fish tacos around

Terrible service. My friend and I were standing at the hostess stand for 10+ minutes and the waitress who was working in the front openly ignored and walked passed us several times(there were only a few customers in the front too) before the manager or head of house staff seated us. Our waitress wasn’t personable at all and quite rude. Our food took so long and she never checked up on us or refilled our waters which was just sad. The food was okay-ish and the truffle fries were pretty good. 2/10

This was a good experience. The food was great and the service was even better. Everything came out quicker than expected. The Tavern was the best dinning experience we had while on the island this time around. Recommend.

Did flounder sammie with said salad..flounder was good, but sammie was falling apart and was a bit dry;no remoulade as advertised. Staff was nice, but they seemed understaffed so a few things fell by the wayside. Beers were pretty solid, space was nice, and I love that all the beers are themed after strong women throughout history. Felt a bit pricey on the food for what it was. Looked like a good happy hour(that i just missed)
