About the Business
Specialties
The Cowford Chophouse is a steakhouse, restaurant and rooftop bar that serves steaks, seafood, & cocktails Tuesday through Saturday.
History
Established in 2017.
The name "Cowford Chophouse" is a nod to the original name of Jacksonville, given in honor of the narrow point in the St. Johns River where settlers would ford the river with their cattle. Today, guests can gaze across that same river to enjoy Southbank skyline views from Downtown Jacksonville's only steakhouse and rooftop lounge. The Cowford Chophouse leadership team brings decades of hospitality experience to Downtown Jacksonville. We look forward to serving you for years to come.

Business Owner
Jacques Klempf, a Jacksonville native and owner of the Cowford Chophouse, purchased the building at 101 E. Bay Street at auction in 2014. The building had suffered significant structural damage from years of neglect, but Klempf saw potential -- not just for the historic landmark, but for its surrounding area.Many details of this Renaissance Revival landmark have been restored to their original glory with support from the Downtown Investment Authority and the City of Jacksonville's Historic Preservation Trust Fund. Restored elements include the historic arched windows, exterior bricks, metal cornice, and 300-year-old heart of pine lumber that is seen throughout the building today.
