Hawker’s – Best Five Points Bars

Right on the corner of Post and Park, it’s difficult to imagine a more perfect spot for a Five Points restaurant, bar, and hang-out.  A walk across the street from the greens of Riverside Park, Hawker’s Asian Street Food is situated in the heart of Jacksonville and brings out the best possible atmosphere for Five Points and indeed all of Duval to celebrate good food, good beer and great times when hanging out at Hawker’s, walking Five Points, or just hanging out at the park.  Because at Hawkers, they strive to bring you great food mixed with the flavor of the community they are immersed in and you don’t get more flavor that Jacksonville’s Five Points neighborhood.

Our Thoughts on the Hawker’s

We were part of a walk from Memorial Park to Riverside Park and though it is a short distance, the scent and flavors available along that route were multiple and tempting. We decided to step indoors at Hawker’s Asian Street Food and the rest, as they say, is history. Hawker’s quickly became a regular haunt for us, the food is fast and flavorful, the drinks cold and imaginative.

Multiple plays on the “tiki” culture had our friend hooked at the start and for us personally, the options of Japanese Whisky was an unexpected surprise that took our breath away. The Yamazaki 18 year will match any bottle we’ve had in recent memory, and if we’re wrong, we’d be glad to dop another tasting! The deep wells of the bar were a welcome staple for what we thought was just a restaurant and turned this one-time stop into a regular bar hop for us. Hawker’s is more than it appears, and is well worth the discovery.
