Miami Tips:

Miami is more than just a party beach, make sure you explore all the city has to offer!
I would recommend staying on the city side, it is way cheaper, and it is just a quick ride to the beach.
A lot of businesses add in an 18% tip automatically, so just be sure to double check your bill so you know which spots are including it and which are not.
If you’re also visiting Fort Lauderdale, or flying in/out of there, there is a train that runs between the two cities. Fort Lauderdale recommendations below!

Adventures & Ales Top Recommendations:

Explore the Wynwood Neighborhood!
- J. Wakefield Brewing: Delicious beers and a lot of collaboration brews as well! A smaller taproom but they do have outdoor seating as well. A must visit while in Miami.
- Wynwood Walls: It's hard to miss the amazing artwork that lines the walls of this neighborhood! Wander the streets and check out all of the amazing pieces. There is also a specific area that you can pay to enter and explore, but from my perspective there is plenty of gorgeous free art throughout the area.
- Traveling with a group? AvantStay has some amazing larger homes for rent! Use my link here to save $250 off your stay!
- Coyo Taco: A popular taco spot with delicious food!
- No. 3 Social: A fun rooftop bar and lounge. The views are average, but it is still a nice spot to hang out. They also do a happy hour with great deals!
- Oasis: A shipping container-style outdoor food hall. It is super cute and a great spot to hang out.
- The Bagel Club: A great bagel shop with delicious sandwiches and a cute back patio. You can also preorder online.
- Kush: A restaurant and beer bar with a solid tap list and full food menu.
- Wynwood Brewing: A fun spot with board games, flights, and an outdoor patio
Tripping Animals Brewing Co.: A great brewery in Doral with a wide variety of beers. They also have a killer food menu—the mushroom sandwich was phenomenal.

The Classic Tourist Spots Actually Worth Visiting:

Miami Beach: While in Miami you’ve got to hit the beach! The sand is white and soft and the water stays pretty warm year round.
Bike along A1A Beachfront Avenue: It's the perfect way to explore all of the coastline.
Stroll along Ocean Drive in Miami Beach to check out the art deco buildings!
Other Miami Beach Ideas:
- Naked Taco: A boujee taco spot on the main strip of Miami Beach
- Juice and Java: A health-focused cafe with a very large menu of salads, smoothies and more
- Cortadito: A coffee shop in the heart of Miami Beach with delicious drinks and fun vibes
- Joe & The Juice: Absolutely would not recommend. Overpriced, mediocre juices and smoothies with no air conditioning.
Versailles Cuban Restaurant: Touristy but delicious Cuban food.

Head to Fort Lauderdale for some more brewery hopping:

Orchestrated Minds Brewing: A tiny little spot making delicious beers—especially their Stouts and Barleywines! Their team is also incredibly nice and it is a fun spot to hang out.
- Vegan Junkie is a delicious vegan junk food truck around the corner!
Invasive Species Brewing: Another great brewery in Fort Lauderdale with fantastic beers, especially the Sours! They have a nice back patio space and frequent food trucks.
3 Sons Brewing: A restaurant-style brewery specializing in Pizzas and Lagers. They are just 6 minutes from the Fort Lauderdale airport, so if you are flying in/out it is a great stop on the way.
Funky Buddha Brewing: Technically just north of Fort Lauderdale, but one of the largest and oldest breweries in South Florida so it is worth a stop. They have restaurant vibes and a full food menu.
While you’re in the area check out Hollywood Beach—it is another fantastic beach with beautiful soft, white sand

Other Ideas:

Unseen Creatures Brewing & Blending: Another brewery option with a dark taproom, IPA-heavy tap list, and frequent food pop-ups.
Beat Culture Brewing & Kitchen: An interesting brewery with a bar food menu and dive bar vibes. They are 6 minutes from the Miami airport so it’s an easy stop on your way in/out of town.
Toasted Baglery and Deli: A small bagel shop nestled on your way to the beach in Miami City with delicious sandwiches and coffees.
Ittle Italy: Delicious vegan pizza delivery option!
Panther Coffee: They’ve got several locations throughout Miami and Miami Beach with breakfast sandwiches, pastries and coffees.
Spanglish: A cocktail bar and kitchen with club-ish vibes. Definitely not what was expected.
Zak The Baker: A popular bakery in the Wynwood neighborhood. Check your order before walking away because mine was completely inaccurate, but the bagel itself was tasty.
