Pete's Bar

Pete’s Bar is the Neptune Beach landmark bar at 117 First Street, Neptune Beach, FL 32266, at First and Lemon in Beaches Town Center. Google Places lists the phone as (904) 249-9158. This Stay Safe Jax page is that First Street room. It is not Lemon Bar at 2 Lemon Street, not The Local on Atlantic Boulevard, and not Lynch’s in Jacksonville Beach. Public ratings on this page are stored snapshots, not live scores. Google Places currently lists 4.3 from 803 reviews for the 117 First Street listing. Stay Safe Jax has no stored Yelp rating, so the headline is 4.3 from 803 reviews. Those numbers do not refresh when someone opens the page. A 4.3 from hundreds of reviews is a mixed, ordinary historic-dive score. Cash-only stories, crowds, and worn wood are part of how people talk about Pete’s. Stay Safe Jax does not stretch that into a warning page. Google currently lists every day 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. Hours change. Visit Jacksonville publishes the same daily window. Check Google the day you go. Google Places lists wheelchair-accessible parking, entrance, and restroom, and does not list wheelchair seating. Stay Safe Jax did not independently inspect the bar. Call (904) 249-9158 if you need a specific accommodation. Visit Jacksonville says Pete’s was the first bar to open legally in Duval County after Prohibition was repealed in 1933, that the building predates Neptune Beach’s 1931 city founding, and that the 1920s use was Jensen’s Market. The Beaches History blog (2014) and Jax Humor’s history piece repeat that the 1933 liquor license was number one and that little about the room has been restyled. Visit Jacksonville’s nightlife guide still names Pete’s and Lemon Bar as Beaches staples. Celebrity-sighting lore in older blogs is not treated as a verified guest list. Stay Safe Jax leaves warning flags at 0. There is no current sourced lawsuit or investigation in the facts used here. Stay Safe Jax does not add a company website. First and Lemon is Beaches Town Center, two blocks of history that also include Lemon Bar’s ocean lot. Pete’s 4.3 snapshot is the honest dive-bar average, not a hidden health case. Visit Jacksonville’s 1933 license story is the public claim this page repeats. Stay Safe Jax does not verify cash-only rules from rumor. If you need a restroom that works with a wheelchair, call (904) 249-9158 before you count on the Google tags. The listing stays open because the bar is still pouring.
