Before the beach had a brewery scene, it had Green Room. The surf themed brewery on Third Street is credited as the first craft brewery in Jacksonville Beach. Its founders picked the beach because nobody had opened one there yet, and they found an empty building of about 4,000 square feet on a busy stretch of Third Street. A front deck and an updated interior came later.
Stand-Up Nights
Comedy here comes from Encore Comedy, a production group that runs shows up and down the East Coast. The lineups pull from three pools, with comics from Jacksonville, from around Florida and from the eastern United States. A night runs about an hour and a half, so it can be the whole evening or the first half of one.
Seating and Arrival
Seating is first come, first served, and it opens half an hour before the show. If you are coming with a group and want to sit together, that half hour matters. Get there early, claim your spot and grab a beer before the first comic walks up.
Before You Go
- Guests under 21 must come with a parent or legal guardian.
- Parking is free.
- The bar is a working taproom, so order between sets and keep the chatter low while someone is on stage.
- Encore sets the rules for each show, so check your ticket for the night's rules.
Tickets
Encore Comedy sells its own tickets online for each date, so there is no ticket button on this page. Plan ahead, because the listings say sales are final.
Nearby
A few minutes away, Ink Factory Brewing on Shetter Avenue runs stand-up on Saturdays. North on Mayport Road, First Coast Comedy does improv every weekend and Voo Swar hosts a weekly stand-up night.
