Bar Cocktail bar Wine bar Lounge

😠 To be honest, I think the prices they are charging are excessive. My husband ordered a rum cocktail and they charged him $36, even though the rum was just Flor de Caña, nothing special. The bartender was even embarrassed. The place is casual, with no table service, it's just a MINIBAR, so it shouldn...

    Great vibe and drinks. The music, the drinks, the staff all great. Located off 5th Street in a residential area, the bar, as its name indicates, is small, but the atmosphere and drinks fill the space. Seating at 2 corner tables and a few others by the door and at the bar. It’s like having friends over to your place…intimate, friendly, and fun. People were singing along and dancing the entire time we were there to disco classics. Cocktails were tasty and well portioned. Bathrooms are out of restaurant down nearby corridor (large and clean). Seek out the minibar, you won’t be disappointed.

    What a fun spot! Dropped in for a drink during my walking explorations and had a fantastic time. The actual space itself is smaller than I had imagined but it wasn’t packed out wall to wall so I felt really comfortable. Drinks were great, the bartender was super attentive. Even when she was swamped she moved fast but with care and attention to detail. The tunes were pretty nostalgic late 90s early 00s rock. Fun vibes and a great time!

    What a find! This is truly a minibar but it doesn't disappoint. The ambience is amazing, the drinks were on point and the staff was friendly. Randomly stopped in after dinner nearby and I'm so glad we did. This is such a cute, true local spot. For larger parties outside will be best, but for smaller parties inside will work...again it's a MINIbar. I will definitely be back! 🤗

    Amazing mini bar with mini bottles for cocktails! We really enjoyed chatting with Omar, who is an excellent bartender. The Spicy One drink is outstanding. A special place. We will definitely be back.

    Best Bar. Best Vibes. Shoutout my fav bartender Leila. She's always on point with the drinks. She's nice on the eyes, and even nicer with her personality. The music is always on point. Whether it's a playlist or DJ Nico or Marley, we be vibe-ing at minibar.

    What a treat to find a local bar feel in such a hotspot! I had no idea that being in a “mini” bar would be so much fun. The DJ was playing such good music. It was like he was in my head! The bartender made the tastiest drinks and served everything with a smile, regardless how busy she was. The other patrons were nice and respectful and greatly took part in the chill, yet crowded atmosphere of a Friday night. I can’t wait to return!

    Best bar in Miami! The space and vibes are very low key but it’s the people that make it shine. Every employee is so welcoming, kind, knowledgeable and FUN. Great drinks, good music. A must go.

    I am leaving this review for the bartender Layla. I went twice this wwek for cocktails, and she puts in a lot of effort for her customers. For ladies night, she experimented with drinks for the night and came up with cocktails. She had candy necklaces for the girls, Edible, glitter, pink, champagne shots. Then I came back again, and she made her own spicy salt for margaritas. The fact that she putting so much effort for her cocktails, and for the guest makes her a great addition to the bar.

  • 5/5 Nikolay K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere and great variety of music, from heavy metal to 80s pop. The margaritas were also delicious.

  • 5/5 Tré E. 9 months ago on Google
    The best "mini bar" that I've ever been. Small bar, big drinks. The bartenders were excellent. They have a great drink menu, and they can tailor make your drink just the way you like. I can't ask for a better vibe in SOBE.

    Omar is the best bartender in South Beach. Send him all my love 💓

    Will is an amazing bartender! Great drinks, tropical atmosphere. Good vibe and good music.

  • 5/5 Brian D. 9 months ago on Google
    Best bar in Miami. If you're looking for a low-key chill night, and perhaps some dancing, Minibar is your best bet. A combination of locals and tourists staying at the hotel, there is always an interesting vibe. DJs accompany most nights after 10pm. The staff will always make you feel welcome. Tell Leila, Omar, Willie, and Brandon I said hi.

    Service is great! Drinks are just extremely overpriced. I wouldn’t return but a nice one time visit if you’re in the area and don’t want to travel far.

  • 5/5 Cesar Augusto Miranda S. 1 year ago on Google
    A cozy small bar with a great atmosphere, I could not ask for more from the staff, they do everything they can to feel you like home. DJ life music was on point👌 Gracias a los muchachos, la pase super bien

    Overrated place with overpriced drinks! The dj was playing some boring music. Nothing interesting. Maybe it has better music on other days. Who knows.

  • 5/5 Nishu V. 1 year ago on Google
    Great drinks! Live DJ with chill vibes. Small place

  • 5/5 Ronja J. 1 year ago on Google
    I had the best night in Miami at this place. Drinks, staff and music f 10/10. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Rachelle M. 1 year ago on Google
    Honestly the best bar I’ve been to in a while. Amazing drinks and music. Also, the vibes are immaculate 👌

  • 5/5 Michael U. 1 year ago on Google
    This place was rad. Music on point, great drinks, and great staff! Highly recommend if you’re visiting. If you’re local, you probably already know what’s up.

  • 4/5 Qianren Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice place with good cocktails. Margarita is the special. You can customize your own. 5-8pm is the happy hour. Passionfruit margarita tastes good. Stubborn Seed is not my favorite. Mini Green tea and Z pack is ok.

  • 2/5 Marianne LaChance S. 1 year ago on Google
    The bar tender was very nice but didn't make good drinks. There was very little alcohol in both mixed drinks. Better to order a can or bottle of something.

  • 1/5 Alison N. 1 year ago on Google
    The only reason we decided to try out this bar was because of their cute cocktails that they advertised on their social media. Big disappointment when we got there and they told us they don't have that little mini bar bottle that they add to their cocktails. Staff was really awkward - one lady that worked there was handling her son's business card (car shop) to all the clients & bartender wasn't friendly at all. Music wasn't very catchy either. We finished our drinks and left.

    Cute little bar with happy hour, and create your own margaritas where you choose the flavor option and garnishes you'd like. It is located inside of a hotel.
