Palace Bar & Restaurant

(311 Ratings)
Every queen needs a castle

The Palace Bar is a fixture and revolutionary beacon of Miami and is considered the #1 destination for LGBTQ+ cuties in the city. In the 90s The Palace made history by being the first bar & restaurant on Ocean Drive! Not long after it opened its wild doors, celebrities of the highest caliber began frequenting the club.

Doesn't Get Any Better Than The Palace

We visited South Beach the middle of January for 5 days and went to the Palace EVERY DAY ! What does tell you? We loved the place. It IS busy but they have a lot of employees to give great service. Drag shows are awesome. We found the bartenders as well as waiters to be very friendly and professional. They are located in a perfect location right on Ocean Blvd. and it is the perfect place for people watching. Guess you can tell that we really enjoyed this bar/restaurant. We dined there for their Sunday brunch and had the pasta dish which was excellent. We would certainly highly recommend this place to anyone going to South Beach. Forget the other bars in the area and concentrate on this one. We LOVED it! Bar owners all over the country should fly down to see how to properly operate a bar that everyone wants to go to.

One of my favorites

Go here to watch all of the hot, half naked men walk by, grab a quick drink with a friend and ogle the beautiful staff. I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

great location for watching cute guys go by... food was mediocre

great people watching. Drinks were weak and in the evening the cute waiter kept trying to sell a pitcher when all we wanted was a single drink. Had lunch after leaving 12th street beach. chicken wrap was a bit overdone.
