418 Meridian Ave

This bar is awesome chill!! A nice, fun vibe and a nice break from crazy, busy South-beach bars. The bartenders are so nice, the DJ is awesome, drinks are great! Indoor available, a bit small but great vibes and music is perfect for dancing and there's a relaxing outdoor seating, perfect to enjoy a drink and have a conversation. Right next to Meridian Hotel and open till 2am!

My Favorite bar in South Beach! Great drinks! Great music! Great staff!! Definitely will drop in again !

The bartenders here are very friendly. The place is small, yet intimate. It was perfect for us. DJ in the back corner (no requests). It sits on the same property as The Meridian Hotel. We visited the bar nightly during our stay in Miami.

This is a fun bar with an upscale atmosphere. It's not very big inside and doesn't have more than a handful of bar stools. It's connected to a hotel, and we sat in the courtyard area, which had plenty of tables and chairs and beautiful greenery. It was the perfect spot for a digestif, and although the drinks were on par with the prices of Miami Beach, the quality and alcohol content was appropriate. The bartender was friendly, helpful, and immediately assisted us with our drink order. I would come back here.

Exhausted with heading down to the main strip, I was looking for a more intimate experience for a quiet date night with my husband and this place gave me everything I wanted. Even though the bar was full, the bartender noticed us and pointed us to the menu as soon as we walked in. I wasn't sure what I wanted so I asked the bartender to give me something with chocolate flavor. She asked a few follow up questions and went to work. In the end, she created a coffee & chocolate flavored martini that was so delicious I couldn't put it down. It's a dark, intimate spot with a DJ playing chill music. It was perfect for a date night.

Bottom line: Minibar is a great little hideout to have a drink or two. Cool bar atmosphere, good drink selections, and our bartender was helpful as well as a great mixologist. Definitely worth checking out. The Deets: Chris M. told me when I came down to Miami Beach to visit that he has been wanting to try this bar for a long time, so we went to Minibar for an early drink or two before dinner one night. They have had a few press write ups which are located on their website so it appears to be a popular little place. One of their items they are known for is serving the drinks with the mini bottles one may find in a minibar, connecting into their name of course. Located within/beside the Urbanica Hotel complex, look for it just past the hotel main entrance as you walk a little bit farther down Meridian Ave. They have a few outside seats but going inside, it is just as its name may suggest...a small dark but inviting bar, well decorated but still keeping that casual feel. You can tell it's a laid back type of place. My pics probably show it best instead of my description. Once inside, scanning the QR code reveals their menu. We were here for drinks so I have no insight on their food offerings. The cocktail list looks great with plenty of drink types to choose from. The bartender was great in answering any questions and making us feel welcome. My friend got the Beach In Mexico cocktail (Abosolo Whiskey Mini, Housemade Orgeat, Nixta, Fresh Lime Juice) while I inquired about mocktail selections...the bartender recommended/made for me a mocktail version of their Mini Bramble (which included Fresh Lemon, Fresh Orange, Muddle Blackberry and Raspberry, Rosemary, without the Bombay Bramble Mini this time). Our drinks were both excellent, we enjoyed them so much we decided on one more before heading out to walk to dinner. I can see as the night goes on that this place would get a bit lively. The atmosphere can suit both quiet times and a bit more bustle/noise as the evening progresses. I am glad we stopped in to try out Minibar in South Beach and recommend you stop by if you get the chance in the Miami area.

Amazing Happy Hour- wow, fun little place. Go and enjoy, you will love the music playlist!! Note that Happy Hour is everyday and there is a DJ every night. Willie, our bartender was friendly, fun and very sweet- he should get a raise!!

Went to happy hour at Minibar on Monday evening. Good drinks at cheap prices at this tiny cocktail bar. Quality: Hard to complain about a $7 Margarita. They have a margarita bar during happy hour that allows guests to mix and match the components they want with small up-charges. With house tequila, sugar, jalapenos, mango, and spicy rim, my drink came to $8.50, which is still a tremendous deal for a very tasty drink. Quantity: Stiff drinks even during happy hour. Value: $17-$18 for Cocktails. $7 Happy Hour specials. Ambiance: Minibar is a small cocktail lounge located in The Meridian Hotel. The entrance is a few steps up front the outdoor patio at the center of the hotel. Several tables sit outside, which was a bit quieter than inside. The inside area is pretty tight, with the bar taking up most of the area. A single high-top and a few stools could be found, but it really was a standing room space. A DJ was set up in the corner and played tracks all over the place, not really sure what the theme was. Crowd: Decent crowd on Monday evening. Lots of hotel guests congregated in the space. Service: Excellent bartender, who quickly put multiple drinks together. Parking: Limited street parking.

Minibar is a small bar in South Beach, mostly frequented by locals. They have nice cocktails, good music & ambiance. They have outdoor seating, which is ideal for our warm miami winters :)

Cool hidden spot in south of fifth (Miami Beach) a place where locals and tourist can gather. Small off the beaten path. Nice drinks, very chill vibe. Nice and dark. A good place to go solo or with friends. They also offer breakfast in the morning. This is essentially two areas with the same name, under the same hotel.

This place was so cute! We loved that this bar was on the property of our hotel where we were staying. The vibe in there was so dark and broody which was such a change of pace from the other bars we had been going to in South Beach. The prices were a little high but that's South Beach/Miami for you. We made it a point to stop in every night for at least one for a nightcap to end our evening.

Absolutely loved this bar! Small, laid back, welcoming...and the drinks not only looked great but tasted amazing.

Such a cozy, intimate cocktail bar! Stopped in before I got dinner across the street, and the cocktails were great.

lowkey bar with amazing vibe, all the bartenders ive met are amazing. leila is so sweet and makes sure you're taken care of. brandon is super man and can do a million things at once and still pump out the best drink. willys is one of the chillest guys and is a master mixologist. and those are just the bartenders i've met. great place, i recommend it over any bar in south beach.

Great happy hour with the create your own margarita That's all I had there so can't comment on anything else

Over priced drinks, and they include 20 percent tip and it's cards only. I bought two drinks. Two. With tax and gratuity, 48 dollars. There was a 7 dollar tip added to pour a glass of neat whiskey and make a tequila soda lime. Cocky behavior

Every time my bf and I find ourselves south of fifth we make it a point to stop at mini bar for a drink or 3 ha! Great ambiance and service :) Always good vibes !

Cute little bar with happy hour, and create your own margaritas where you choose the flavor option and garnishes you'd like. It is located inside of a hotel.

Excellent restaurant with a great variety of food. In the heart of South Beach. Highly recommend !!!

Best hidden gem on south beach, amazing service, drinks and food. Definitely a must do when in the area. All of the staff was definitely the best part of it all.

Best bar in Miami! Leila is the best bartender :) Music is incredible! Unique, eclectic friendly, a gem.

This bar is located at the Meridian hotel where my husband and I stayed at back in July. It's literally a mini bar & the drinks were pretty good. My husband got the old fashion and I got the Key biscayne. Bartender was very friendly and was attentive. She was the only one working and there was quite a handful of guests. If I were to travel back to Miami I'd come by for more drinks

Perfect! Great service- and exactly what it claims to be - a mini bar - Omar is the bartender and a great person!

Adorable Urbanica's little bar. Minibar offers light bites, beer and cocktails- and used our hotel's Complimentary Drinks during our second night. Space is adorable and almost feels like a secret hideaway- hooked up real cute and stylish. Music playlist is all over the map and I mean that with positivity and respect. The usual plain Jane, (Virgin) "Orange & Cranberry Juice 'Drink' was prepared with perfectly crushed ice and jazzed up real nice for me with a Rosemary sprig. Hubs had gotten a Mojito decorated to the nines to make up for Minibar running out of Mint. Then again, we stopped in at about 1 and change in the morning. Thank you so much Omar- for stepping out of the box and not limiting yourself or the Urbanica brand and style.

Not your average 'mini bar' and an above average hotel bar. A tree-lined outdoor as well as indoor annex outside of the boutique Urbanica Hotel is an intermix of creative design and crafted cocktails for a cool vibe and chic space in SoFi. Orig Post 8/23/18

Best bar in Miami. William and Omar are the best! The mangonada is the best drink ever!!

Double vodka red bull = $40. Wants me to add more for review. It was expensive for 1 drink.

Great spot for me to hit as a local - not touristy, good drinks, normal Miami prices, and a good vibe! Extra points for a genius name ;)

Quite possibly the worst service i've ever experienced at a bar. Ordered a lil haiti and got a bricknell. told the server who said what i got was a lil haiti they just "ran out of raspberry syrup". we asked another bartender to remake the drink and low and behold it came out different. Also waited forever to get served even when the bar was pretty empty - bartender prioritized big parties and men despite us being there earlier

Cool, friendly, good vibes kinda spot. Love how hidden it is. Good drinks good vibes, just a cool place to pre game or end the night.

The vibe is great here, friendly staff and great music. The location is in a nice area as well. This was my first time to Miami from the Midwest. We came around the time COVID was less of a scare in the Midwest, but in Miami it was very much still alive so everywhere we went was not very busy, but this place seemed to still draw in a crowd. We stopped in 3 times during our trip. It is pricey considering the drinks are barely filled up. I was super disappointed with the watermelon drink, I finished it in literally 2 gulps. Other than that I would recommend! Nice and dark inside, loved the house music they have playing as well.

Minibar is a cool hole in the wall however the cost of drinks are ridiculously priced @$19.05 for each Beefeater Gin N Tonic to justify returning. Miami prices for food and drinks certainly need a correction.

Fuck this place, my friends ordered beer ahead of me and it was $7, next dude it was $9, I ordered a beer and it was $11 all for a Stella. Bunch of cunts.

Excellent cocktails great tunes, what more do you need? The best drink at the table was The Anderson. The bathroom has a flattering light if you feel like a selfie is part of your night's agenda.

Walked over to the Minibar after having dinner at the Drunken Dragon. A bit of a trek but definitely worth it. Walked in and immediately loved the vibe. The wallpaper is honestly what got me. The bartenders were chill, funny and down to earth dudes. Not too busy as we were there on a early on a Monday night, but perfect as we never had to wait too long for a drink. I started with the Calle Ocho and my wife and friend had the Brickell. Both were awesome and refreshing. So glad they lifted the damn curfew, it's honestly the only reason we did not visit this establishment sooner. We all agreed that we would definitely return to this little gem.

Step into another world within south beach. Mini bar is a swanky spot with awesome drinks, good music and great bar food too. Service is great and Omar the bartender is super friendly.

Cute little neighborhood place with insulting prices. Two drinks = $61.00. Insulting. Be warned to ask [prices before buying anything.

Small little spot with a cozy vibe.. Fun to interact with others here, had a good time for some late night drinks.

This is a cute little bar located on the same property as Urbanica, The Meridian Hotel. The vibe is nice, very sexy and chill. We went for happy hour, I was impressed. Cocktails are well made, the bartender knows what he's doing. I personally love happy hours that serve food. Woohoo, this place has several delicious options. We had empanadas, one chicken and one beef, both were delicious. We also ordered the veggie burger and chicken quesadilla, both were tantalizing to the taste buds. We will definitely make this one of our regular spots. If you love sexy little bars, you will adore Mini Bar, I highly recommend stopping in for happy hour. Bonus they stay open until 2 AM and 5AM on the weekends. :)

Pictures are not accurate. Plus when we arrived they said they didn't have anything to make cocktails - they are a cocktail bar. The music was also terrible. We did not stay.

This place was so much fun!! We loved our drinks and had such a good time playing old school video games in the back. Super fun time with friends we just wished they had the mini bottles turned upside down in each of our drinks like we thought we ordered, but other than that so fun and good!

Best staff in town. You can always count on a great vibe and music. You can make it an early night or dance until 5am

Y'all wanna be overcharged? Go to this place. The menu clearly states beer is 7 dollars. The first order was charged 9 then LITERALLY 10 MIN later was charged 11 per beer. Fuck off. This bar ratchet as shit.

The Minibar at Urbanica is a perfect little neighborhood bar! I would love to see more of these on the corners around Miami. It's a great addition to the South of Fifth neighborhood. The prices are reasonable, and they have a happy hour as well. A great cocktail menu and a nicely stocked full bar. Inside is super Miami-ish and quaint and outside is tree-lined, just the ultimate Miami small bar experience. The bartender was super friendly, attentive and was very accommodating. I would say the Minibar is a little hidden gem on Miami Beach! Even though it's part of the hotel, it still feels like a local spot. I'll be back for sure!

Great spot to visit! It's away from craziness of Ocean dr and has great drinks and atmosphere. On last Saturday night they had a Dj who was playing 90s pop music mixed with new songs. The place is pretty small and has very limited seating inside and outside. Prices are pretty low compare to other places in south beach and bartenders works pretty quickly so you don't have to wait a long time to get a drink.

Super cute little bar with a bit of outdoor seating. Love the "mini" concept where most cocktails come with a mini bottle of liquor. Also thought they named it Minibar because it is definitely on the small side and any other time that would be fine, but during a pandemic, it's a bit tough. We came here on a Friday night and inside was fairly empty so we took a chance and sat at the bar. Masks removed, we ordered our drinks. The bartenders all had their masks on. Then more people started entering the bar. One couple came in with no masks on. No one said anything. They sat close to us, so we moved one seat down to at least have a seat between us and the other party. They gave us the stink eye. I know some people still think COVID is a hoax. Then more people walked in - two guys decided to stand behind me and order their drinks over my shoulder. It was like a regular night at a bar. But these aren't regular nights. And with COVID cases rising, I felt very uncomfortable. We got our drinks, paid our tab and sat outside to enjoy the beverages. The place is nice and if we had just sat outside to begin with, I probably would have enjoyed it more. I just feel that some places are taking every measure to make patrons feel safe and others are catering to the IDGAF crowd. If you want to support this business but also want to feel comfortable, I'd suggest getting there early for happy hour and sitting outside. Will be back when things get better because those drinks were excellent.

Terrific vibe, excellent ambiance crowd and service. I would highly recommend this nice spot. It's very well curated. Try to keep a small party though! It truly is a mini bar!

Cute cocktail bar. My drink was ok - tasty but nothing unique or special. My dates cocktail tasted like watered down tequila. The music started out at a normal volume and then suddenly got extremely loud. Disappointing cocktails for such a highly reviewed bar

Swell vibe, funky soundtrack, great bartender (Omar!), and clever drinks. Definitely worth a visit!
