They have amazing burgers during happy hours! The prices on the drinks are good also. Nick is a great bartender also

The term "dive bar" should never be considered derisive. This place, wedged into a complex including a high end Kimpton hotel and a decent pizza restaurant, offers a great place to come for drinks and bar food that is relaxing and fun. But it's not the art deco beachfront place - it's just a solid bar. Happy hour every night from 5-7? Yes. Even weekends? Yes, again. Super friendly staff in a room with a long bar, many tables/booths, and a pool table. TouchTunes available, too. I note some folks have rated this place poorly due to inattentive service. I suspect, either those low raters came in at a bad time or the bar staff knew those wankers would bring the mood down. My advice: if you go out on the town in Miami Beach, end your night in a real bar. This one. We'll be back. Additional note: the bartender told us gratuities were built into the tab, unlike any other place I have ever been in Miami Beach. Did we tip more anyway? Damn right we did. read more

Brother's Keeper - Bar area. Salt water fish tank, massive booze selection, good times. - Dive Bars Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

We celebrated my husband's birthday last night at Brother's Keeper, a cozy bar in South Miami with a cool 70's vibe and wonderful service. Anna and E-Z made our night extra special with their kindness and smiles. Everything we tried was delicious the chicken wings (and I'm not usually a fan) were crispy, tender, and perfectly seasoned. The spinach and artichoke croquettes were so so soft inside, the steak was melt-in-your-mouth, and the Caesar salad was fresh and beautifully presented. The margaritas were also excellent , perfectly balanced and refreshing Parking was easy since it was a Tuesday, and the atmosphere was relaxed, perfect for a pleasant evening out. Highly recommend!!! read more

This place has a cool vibe and a very friendly bartender. I really like the decor and it makes a great stop off for a drink if you are out and about town. So many drinks sounded very fun and tasty. We tried the Apricot and Strawberry Jungle Bird, Ginger Beet Smash and a smidgeon of the Pepperoncini Gibson. All were delicious and I wish I could have had more, but fancy drinks are pricey. This was one of the fancier places we stopped off while in town, but perfect for a date night/special occasion. Its located right near a trolley stop and easy to get to without a car. There's a full food menu too. I appreciated the option to have the shishito peppers prepared one of two ways. I opted to have mine with olive oil and sea salt. I always wish more places had these on the menu. Food was super fast. Other items tempted me as well. There is also daily happy hour from 5-7. There's a pool table available too. read more

Really digging this new Alton and Lincoln bar. The space is small but comfortable. Nice big bar in the center with cushioned bar top. Nice touch. And the lighting makes you feel like you are part of an aquarium, which are adorned behind the bar. Stopped in for their happy hour menu. The oysters were so fresh and delicious (East Coast Cape Cod region) more on the sweet side, not so briny. Also got a chance to try the bacon wrapped dates with queso Cabrales inside. Nice pairing for some drinks. They had a good selection of cocktails and NA ones too, if you're skipping the booze but want something flavorful and fizzy to drink. They have a pool table, darts, and a juke box. Living for this dive! read more

Once again yelp never fails me. I parked my car at the lot closest to my dermatologist and I had an hour to kill before my appointment and it was 5pm. The perfect time for happy hour. I searched happy hour and sorted by distance and this was the closest spot. It took me 3 mins walking to find it and parking was less than 3 dollars an hours. When I walked in I was a little skeptical because I was the only person there but I grabbed a seat at the bar and the bartender handed me a menu. The inside is super cool they have salt water aquariums over the bar which I thought was awesome! He told me all drinks were half off and at the top of the menus were the martinis and I instantly knew I was at the right spot for me. I ordered the bread martini. It was amazing and came with a little buttered croissant and it was the perfect combo. I also ordered half a dozen of east coast oysters. They were fresh and delicious. All of that for 30 bucks in Miami Beach. Not too shabby, can't wait to go back! read more

Awful place. I went in and bar was half full. 3 bartenders. after 10 minutes I walked out. nobody even acknowledged I was there. never was offered a drink. A dive bar would be an upgrade to this place. avoid. read more

Brother's Keeper is such a great spot! They opened close to two months ago and I've found myself here a handful of times already. The staff is all so kind and attentive. The bar is great from its super cool decor to the cold AC, great drinks (cocktails, beer, and wine) and yummy food by QP Tapas. Highly recommend ending the night with the cheesecake bites that are so delicious. They have a great happy hour everyday from 5-7pm that does not disappoint with drinks and bites. Can't wait to come back again soon! read more

Absolutely loved my experience here! Arrived around 9:30 on a Wednesday night and a few other people were here but by 10:30, it was packed! The bartenders are super knowledgeable and friendly - the kitchen made me the bread service martini even though it was closed and man, that croissant was warm, buttery, and delicious. Music was good, people at the bar actually talk to each other, and drinks are affordable. Menu looks great too, though I didn't get to try anything other than the croissant due to the time. Will definitely be back. Pro tip- ask for Jess at the bar!! Best bartender ever read more

Great neighborhood bar. Great 70's vibe Prices are about right for a bar & convenience. read more

Just go and order the "bread service." But I'll explain. imagine this, you see your friend order what you thought was just your typical "dirty martini" situation. Then you find out it's a "bread service" martini. Wtf is that I thought. Wellll, it is the most perfectly crafted, ice cold, smooth as can be martini garnished with a little tangy spanish pepper. it doesn't end there. THE most buttery, flaky, warm croissant appears with your perfect cocktail. The end. In heaven. Goodbye read more

I'm growing fond of coming here. Been a few times since the opening and it's consistently a chill place to post up with the homies. Pool table in the back, darts towards the front. Good amount of seats at the bar and several tables which for the most part can seat 4 people and maybe 1-2 standing by it. Drinks are pretty good and the menu also has a nice variety of bites. Recently had the crab rangoonies and they rocked. Smoked fish dip is also a popular item, and each of their Martinis also comes with a bite to accompany it. I've referred to it as Mac's 2.0 (some may not agree) but it reminds me of it, lights and all. Definitely check it out if you haven't, perfect for a wind down after work if you're on the beach. read more

The food, service and ambiance were great. It's had a neighborhood bar feel to it and my husband and I felt welcomed. read more

Brother's Keeper - Espresso Martini! It was delish! - Dive Bars Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

My new favorite spot on Miami Beach! As soon as I heard that the creators of Lost Boy were behind this new bar, I had to check it out. Right when you walk in, you are blasted with amazing A/C and a nice relaxing volume of music. Labeled a "dive bar", this place is an elevated version of such, however it gives all the cozy feels of a local dive bar. We started with the Lychee Coconut Colada which had notes of banana as well and definitely packed a punch. Their happy hour bites looked amazing, we had the Frita Pie, Bacon Wrapped Dates, and Jerk Chicken Wings. None disappointed and all had so much flavor, no extra sauces or toppings needed. We finished with the Frozen Cheesecake Pop which was sweet and salty, possibly my favorite dish. The service was impeccable, the bartenders and staff were so in touch with their guests. Happy hour everyday from 5-7 is something relatively new to the Beach and I am so here for it. I can't wait to come back and try everything else on the menu! read more

Walked into this lovely but chill neighborhood bar after our shifts to check it out after meeting the owner. Not only did the lead bartender recognize us after only having met us one other time at his previous job, but remembered we don't drink alcohol and called for two non-alcoholic cocktails to be made. Fantastic service and atmosphere, very safe and cool vibes. The n/a cocktails were amazing and the snacks hit the spot. So happy we came by and will definitely be back!! read more

Great food, great service, and ambiance was perfect. If you are thinking about visiting Brother's Keeper, don't think, just go! You will not be disappointed. The drinks were made delicious! I recommend the jerk chicken wings as a must try! read more

I was hoping for a great or good neighbor bar. Instead I had a mediocre drink (kettle one on the rocks w two splashes of cranberry -strange tasting cranberry juice- and was charged $27 plus a surcharge of $3.00 for ice plus a 20% charge for service included in the bill. That's way going out in Mami Beach sucks. read more

While on our weekend staycation visiting from WPB, we stopped in for a nightcap last night. From the moment we opened the door I was in awe of the unique vibe, food and beverage selections. The ambient lighting, fish tanks and background music adds charm to this local gem. Some of the cocktails are thoughtfully paired with an accompanying food bite. My hubby had the Filthy Cherry & Almond Manhattan, accompanied by a bacon wrapped stuffed date. Of course, I had to try a sip and a bite too. It was absolutely wonderful and savory delicious! I was curious about their non-alcoholic selections so I ordered the Monday Negroni. I enjoyed it and it hit the spot. We really enjoyed the lightly breaded and flavorful gator bites, which were good on their own, but were also great dipped in the hot sauce. Don't let the thought of "alligator" deter you. You gotta at least order these once. They actually taste better than chicken. The bartenders are super attentive and we gave The Magic 8 Ball a try. We played with that a bit and had our nostalgia fix. Overall, we had an amazing experience and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment. We will definitely make a point of visiting during happy hour the next time we're in town. This place is a super fun hangout. read more

Not a good spot for a person on his own simply trying to grab a drink. People don't know how to respond to a solo patron.

Chill place to have a drink and get to know a new friend. And it's close to work. I will be back.

Went there for their happy hour and their drink prices were great. What I did not like was the very small selection of bar bites. Also the prices of these bar bites were way over priced for what you got. For instance the smoked fish dip had one tablespoon size portion of fish tip which came with original saltine crackers. If you are paying $10 for this bar bite you should be given some fancy crackers. I definitely will not be back for these bar bites. read more
