South Pointe Tavern

South Pointe Tavern is the right amount of old school maritime vibes paired with top-notch creative cocktails and a stellar liquor selection. Make a stop at the much-needed neighborhood bistro for exceptional food, quality beverages, and a warm ambiance.

The seaside craft bar by far boasts the most extensive collection of whiskey (200+) and tequila (80+) on Miami Beach. If you’re a whiskey enthusiast — keep your eye out. The bar owners are known for stocking hard-to-find exemplars of the whiskey world. Even the craft cocktails pack a punch. A crowd-favorite is their signature Old-Fashioned, featuring whiskey, a house-made coffee reduction, orange oil, and aromatic bitters. 

As far as the food goes, think gifts from the sea and landlubber comfort food. But don’t expect your run-of-the-mill pub snacks. Those who have enjoyed a moment at South Pointe Tavern know the dishes’ sophistication matches their spirits selection. Tastefully freshen your palate with ceviche cameron and a well-executed guac. For a hardy snack, go with the Hoisin BBQ ribs, one of the bar’s bestsellers. 

If you’re starting the day off right, catch their breakfast starting from 9 a.m. Then make a stop around happy hour from 5 to 7 p.m. for half-off beers, wine, and select cocktails. Outdoors they have casual French bistro-style seating and a fresh sea breeze. Indoors, an honest bar catering to the local customers with the friendliest of bartenders.
