Blackbird Ordinary

"From shooters to cocktails to punch bowls, drinks come in various sizes at Blackbird Ordinary. A dark interior combined with the indoor/outdoor space, live music, and throwback hits creates an upbeat take on where to get one of the city's best-mixed drinks." - Olee Fowler

"For craft cocktails in Brickell, nowhere comes close to Blackbird, a dark, funky space with a spacious back area that frequently has live bands, dancing, and the occasional boxing match. If you can hit this popular spot on a weeknight, cozy up in one of the big booths and try the original Blackbird with sweet tea vodka, blackberries, and lemonade. It’s only $10, a downright bargain by Miami standards. Or for something spicier, get the Tipp Topp: Vida mezcal, passion fruit, lime, agave, and Yucateco." - MATADOR_NETWORK

"This longstanding Brickell bar features one of the most bustling happy hours in town offering two-for-one drinks daily from 3 to 8 p.m." - Olee Fowler

"There just aren’t a lot of places in Brickell where your average college kid will feel comfortable alongside Miamians with a 401K, but Blackbird has long been a favorite of UM students, the Brickell working crowd, and anyone else looking for a boozy night out. It’s not a chill place to have a conversation, but it can be fun if you’re not quite in the mood for a club but still want to party." - Ryan Pfeffer

"With its laid-back, neighborhood bar feel, Blackbird Ordinary is best experienced with people you can really be yourself around. If you’re looking to make a business deal or get to know a potential mate, you’re better off arriving early, before the noise level drowns out your ability to converse without yelling. For those who like to watch the sunrise with a cocktail in their hand, take note: The place is open until 5 a.m. every night (365 days a year)." - Jennifer M. Wood
