Our story

Built to bring Jacksonville together.

The Anchor was opened by brothers Josh and Jay Fertic, inspired by friendship, community and the idea of an anchor as something that holds people together. While building the bistro, they listened to what Jacksonville locals wanted and shaped the menu around the neighborhood.

The result is a welcoming spot where coffee, food and community share the same table.
