Best & Cool Bars in University Park

"Restaurants Seafood Downtown. Area 31’s 16th-floor lounge may not technically be on the roof, but its view of Downtown is hard to beat. A photo op here is one you'll be tempted to caption with “I live where you vacation,” but don't be that guy."

"Editor's Note: Photo taken from the establishment's official social account. A post shared by Area 31 (@area31miami) on Sep 14, 2017 at 2:10pm PDT. On the 16th floor of the EPIC hotel is Area 31."

"More of a Balinese garden than a bar, Sugar takes rooftop aesthetics to a whole new level. With 40th-floor views (from the EAST, Miami hotel), soothing decor, and dangerously strong lychee martinis, and tasty tapas, making an evening at Sugar is an exotic departure from the Miami norm.

"Miami’s buzziest rooftop bar, located on the 40th floor of EAST hotel, rocks a menu of Asian-inspired cocktails and small plates and the best view in town. 788 Brickell Plaza #40Miami, FL 33131+1-786-805-4655"

"The city has some of the exotic bars that you haven’t gone till now. And A great hotspot in Brickell always has a massive line out on the weekends. You will see a good crowd waiting for their turn."

"What began in 2012 as a pop-up bar has flourished and matured into one of the most popular spots in Miami Beach. This courtyard oasis, equipped with twinkling lights, table tennis, and mismatched patio furniture, offers a roster of cocktails that change according to the season and available fresh ingredients. Curb your hunger with bites such as Korean chicken tenders and a Cuban sandwich."

"This bar showed Miami just how delicious cocktails could be. This intimate, tropical outdoor bar that lives inside the Freehand hostel has become a must-visit for any informed drinker passing through the city. Thankfully, the bar hasn’t lost any of its magic over the years and remains the North Star of Miami cocktail culture."

"The Broken Shaker has helped evolve the Miami mixed drink scene bringing the stiff drinks out of the parlor and into the open air. It's not the velvet slipper and smoking jacket type of cocktail club some out-of-towners may be use to. Patrons sip their drinks scattered around the pool and beneath the over-growth."

"First time trying this place since Alvin's was closed tonight. It was surprisingly good!. I say it that way because so many of the establishments on ..."

"Upon arriving at Blackbird Ordinary in search of a serious cocktail, you might think you've come to the wrong place. But the keen-eyed customer will spot the live herbs on the tables and the bartenders immersed in their craft. Specialty drinks are named for birds (duh), and, like the winged creatures, each cocktail is a beautiful and rare thing to behold."

"From shooters to cocktails to punch bowls, drinks come in a variety of sizes at Blackbird Ordinary. A dark interior combined with the indoor/outdoor space, live music and throw-back hits creates an up-beat take on the where to get one of the city's best mixed drinks."

"Roomy, stylish outpost offering Mexican tacos & tostadas alongside an array of mezcals & margaritas.

"When you spot the decorative cacti out front, you’ll know you’ve arrived at Bakan. This lovely Wynwood restaurant offers traditional Mexican dishes far removed from the taco joints that proliferate throughout Miami. Here you’ll find Oaxacan mole dishes and whole grilled fish (and quesadillas and guacamole if that’s your jam)."

"Bakan, a hip Wynwood eatery specializing in authentic Mexican cuisine, is named after the Huastecan word for “tortilla,” and it naturally excels in tacos, tostadas and other tortil..."

"Stroll through the lobby and to the back, outdoor pool of the Shore Club, or the historic Bleau Bar at The Fontainebleau, where you can get the same, ever-cool SoBe experience that Sinatra and Elvis had back in the 1950s and ’60s. Day 2: In Pursuit of Exotic Flavor"

"Think back on the Miami of a year ago, when nobody was sure if our city’s meteoric ride to the top of the American food scene would survive the pandemic’s brutal wrath. Flash forward to now, and even in the height of summer, snagging a reservation at a top restaurant is a tough feat, like Art Basel just kept on going right into hurricane season. Whether or not our restaurant renaissance continues is anyone’s guess, but for now we can all revel in a year that’s seen week after week of world-class openings."

"In Miami’s historic MiMo District, Blue Collar has been serving up some of the best comfort food dishes in the city for nearly seven years (wow!) though it feels like just yesterday Chef Daniel Serfer arrived on the scene. He opened Mignonette, another instant success, just two years after Blue Collar. The brunch menu consists of Eggy Stuff, Syrupy Stuff, Othery Stuff, Sandwichy Stuff, and Salady Stuff and please believe us when we say you can’t go wrong no matter what your palate fancies."

"Though in many cities brunch is reserved for Saturday and Sunday, other cities also have people with jobs they can legally explain. Blue Collar gets Miami’s flex schedule lifestyle and offers a full brunch menu all day, every day. So if you’re hankering for brioche French toast, shrimp and grits, or a massive breakfast burrito with chipotle sour cream and 3pm on a Monday, they’re happy to oblige."

"If you’re feeling ambitious on your townie cruiser, you can ride north to Bal Harbour or Haulover beaches; natives know these as water-sports havens—and for Bal Harbour’s luxury shopping. Otherwise, drop off your bike along Ocean Drive and grab a spot on the beach, Lummus Beach, which runs from around 6th to 14th streets. This is a beach for locals and tourists alike, and the spread of humanity—supermodels, families and even topless tanners—make this a go-to spot for people-watching."

"This Miami art museum is a centerpiece of the University of Miami, and is home to a variety of Native American, ancient Egyptian, Renaissance and Baroque, Asian, and European originals. The Lowe is the oldest art museum in Miami, which originally opened in 1950 as an art display across the classrooms in the building. Originally established through a gift by Joe and Emily Lowe, this stunning 17,500-piece collection includes paintings from Claude Monet, African sculptures from 500 BCE, Asian costumes, medieval manuscripts, and The Samuel H. Kress collection."

"Situated inside the University of Miami, this long-standing museum is a favorite for UM students and the Coral Gables community. The Lowe is home to a well-rounded collection of art from the Italian Renaissance, Baroque, Greco-Roman, and Spanish Old Masters, among others. The museum also holds a sizeable assortment of Native American, African, and Asian art and antiquities."

"Miami's reputation on the international art scene tends to focus on the new. The Magic City is the place where, once a year, collectors from around the world come to scope out the cutting edge of contemporary art. But what about the old?"

"More of a cultural center than a museum, the space is both a comforting reminder for Haitian expats of their country’s art, history, music, movies, and literature and a fascinating look into a Caribbean nation that too few have been able to visit. Opened in 2004 to commemorate Haiti’s Bicentennial, the 60,000-square-foot museum is a one-of-a-kind experience just steps from Miami’s Little Haiti neighborhood, a location that makes it even more immersive ($10/adult).

"Housing one of Miami's finest private collections, this 30,000-sq-ft gallery has a treasure trove of contemporary works scattered across three floors, which you can roam freely. Rosa and Carlos de la Cruz, who..."
