Fun. Food. Libation. Those are the words stamped above the door at the Parrot Lounge, one of Fort Lauderdale’s oldest bars. And you can bet that the folks inside stick to that slogan.

It’s hard to miss the long, vertical, purple neon sign that reads Passion along the avenue at the adult-theme park Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. Greeted by a faux red carpet, you’ll enter the multi-level nightclub that caters to a diverse clientele with a variety of music and cabaret shows. Stretched, glittery “chandeliers” dangle above […]
Pelican Landing is the more casual watering hole adjoining the Hyatt’s Pier 66 (Grille 66 is the upscale neighbor). But you wouldn’t know it by the docks of million-dollar yachts you have to walk past to get there. Look east and the marina, peppered with sailboats and sports fishermen, seems to go on forever; look […]
The old Shirttail Charlie’s location is tricky to access by car (tucked in a maze of streets behind Andrews Avenue) but is one of Fort Lauderdale’s best. How many downtown restaurants boast 150 feet of waterfront on the New River? The biker/pirate motif is contrived but fun, and Pirate Republic is actually a step up […]

Plush Pony ain’t the kind of place to start line dancing. Those cowboys at the L-shaped bar, and yes, they’re probably real cowboys, won’t appreciate the two-step you learned in dance class. They’re more likely to accept a drunken jig on the makeshift dance floor of linoleum tile sandwiched between the pool table and the […]
After being in business for what seems to be several decades, the Poorhouse has established itself as the go-to bar for downtown Fort Lauderdale’s barstool regulars, tattooed crowd, and music scene supporters.

Amid the upscale restaurants and lounges in Hollywood’s downtown district is the tiny beer aficionado hangout, PRL Euro Cafe. Wedged in next to Mauro’s pizza, the extremely low-lit bar’s atmosphere bodes that of a PBR-peddling dive bar, but the plethora of unique lager choices and casually hip clientele suggests otherwise. In the front of the […]
Lake Worth’s indie-music hot spot, Propaganda has the monopoly on good local, original music most nights of the week. If a local band hasn’t played the spot, it won’t be long. Even Chris Carrabba of Dashboard Confessional has been known to drop in for a surprise show. The Soviet-themed décor recalls Socialist propaganda posters: drowned […]

A breezy bar and restaurant where all types of people interact over a solid beer selection, pool, and sports.
Leather and light spirits, despite the serious sexual energy and sex-toy shop, make this indoor/outdoor bar a great place to hang out — or to pick up. Ramrod is basically the “Cheers” of Wilton Manors. There’s something intriguing about bear culture that draws people in, whether you’re a bear or not. Cub, bear, otter, or […]
Though this Tex Mex restaurant and bar, located just half a block from Deerfield Beach, serves Southwestern cuisine, the décor of mounted fish and fishing photographs suggests a fascination with the nearby ocean. Rattlesnake Jake’s is divided in half, with the restaurant on one side and a small bar, bustling with friendly local fellows, on […]

For more than 20-something years, Respectable Street has reigned strong over the West Palm Beach nightclubs and bar scene on Clematis Street and probably will do so for another few decades. The dimly lit smoky front bar has a large stage where musical local and legends perform on a weekly basis. The walls are adorned […]
