Business Description from the Web

The Bar is aptly named since it is "the" bar at Coral Gables. Established in 1946, The Bar is still going strong. There are plenty of beers on tap and lots of fine liquors. The Bar is perfect for just a drink, but they also serve high-class bar food, such as fish and chips or a grilled steak sandwich. The bar is darkly lit which creates a mysterious atmosphere, perfect for a date or a night... more

This Gables hideaway has the same intimate, local feel that makes the Abbey special. Board games and dominos pop up regularly, as do old familiar faces that you probably haven't seen since high school. The owners have figured out the formula for having a successful neighborhood bar without the dive-y element. Good beer, great wings and fries, mood lighting and comfy booths make it the perfect... more

Coral Gables watering hole has been serving up brews and playful revelry to locals since 1946.

brought to you by

In Short With 48 bottled beers available and another 10 drafts on tap, this is where Coral Gables professionals come to relax by day and everyone else comes to down brews by night. The long bar is the centerpiece, encircled by stools with plenty of tables and booths within earshot. Patrons shuffle over checkerboard floor tiles and pass framed throwback artwork, but no one is here to... more

Fish 'n Chips!

Review Rating
brought to you by

Citysearch

I can't give it a 5 star because I havnt tried enough of the menu.....but the Fish and Chips are to die for!! Really really good, and I'm pretty picky when it comes to that particular plate. So if you're not sure what to try-- go for the Fish!!

Pros

+ casual atmosphere, good food

Cons

- they dont serve "real" iced tea!!

Classy Dive Bar

This is the nicest classic dive bar I have been in. You know, it really wouldn't be a dive bar except it is 50+ years old.

Excellent beer selection, the best I've seen in South Florida, Lots of the trapists.

Read about this bar in Maxim Magazine, Best Bar in America, it was rated at the top

Good music on Saturdays. Believe it or not, they have different board games to choose from like dominoes, connect four, trivial pursuit, etc. The band could get kind of loud sometimes. Great hang-out. Kind of a Cheers atmosphere when there is no music.

Pros

+ service, different beers

Cons

- bad parking
