The annual South Beach WFF is back. If you don't live in Miami but want to make the trip down I highly recommend taking the Brightline and trying out the PREMIUM service. Included with your ticket is a roundtrip ride in one of their brand new Teslas to get you from the station to South Beach stress-free. (this newsletter is not sponsored by Brightline, I just really enjoy taking the train). Use promo code ALLABOARD for 25% off their smart fare tickets.

My Top 5 Patio Bars in Miami

From rooftop bars to amazing views of the city. Miami has no shortage of cool places to grab a drink with friends. Here are some of my favorite spots... check them out!

Cervecería La Tropical, Wynwood

A super chill tropical garden in Wynwood that's home to Cuba's oldest brewery. Plenty of outdoor seating, four kinds of tropical-inspired beer along with bites like empanadas, croquetas, etc.

Lagniappe, Edgewater

This spot is always busy, a perfect spot if you want something upbeat and full of people. They usually have weekly live jazz musicians.

Broken Shaker, South Beach

Awesome craft cocktails in a backyard oasis setting. Garden with seating, swimming pool, ping pong hall and boccee ball court. Whatever you're into they got it here.

Gramps, Wynwood

All about the wynwood vibes here. Gramps is one of the best spots to grab cocktails and hang out. Plus there's always something going down on the outdoor patio from bands to stand up comedy.

Riverside Miami, Brickell

Located right on the Miami River this spot offers lawn, lounge and taproom. It's also dog friendly if you wanna bring your pup!
