"This Coral Gables pub has a long history in the city of Coral Gables. It first opened in 1989, founded by friends Martin Lynch and John Clarke, and then closed in 2020. Breakwater Hospitality Group reopened the much-loved Irish pub in 2022. The pub offers Irish fare, a well-poured pint, and more than 400 different whiskies in addition to traditional dishes like shepherd’s pie and bangers and mash. The pub offers live music on a regular basis, and its festivities spread out onto Miracle Mile each St. Patrick’s Day for a city-wide celebration." - Laine Doss
"If you’re looking for Irish pub grub and a perfectly poured pint of Guinness, John Martin’s is your destination. The restaurant, which opened in 1989 and then reopened after founders John Clarke and Martin Lynch retired, offers traditional Irish fare, a whisky program that boasts more than 400 whiskies, and live music. On St. Patrick’s Day, John Martin’s spills out into the street for its annual block party." - Laine Doss
"This iconic Irish establishment in Coral Gables offers a unique twist on the classic Old Fashioned. Infused with coconut and cold brew, the Irish whiskey is complemented by chocolate bitters, creating a delightful blend of tropical and chocolatey flavors. The drink is garnished with a macaroon for an extra treat." - Alona Martinez
"The landmark Irish pub on Miracle Mile has had a steady, loyal fan base since opening in 1989, and it came back to life after a nearly-three year closure, thanks to COVID-19. And while it came back to life with new owners and a revamped look, the fish and chips remain one of the best in town. Thick, crunchy batter seals in tender, perfectly cooked fish. The fries are also impressive. The only faux pas: It doesn’t automatically arrive with vinegar." - Alona Martinez
"The landmark Coral Gables bar sets the ideal scenario for football watching. With multiple flat screens within the pub, an extensive menu featuring Irish and American grub (fish and chips and baby back ribs are favorites), over 300 types of whiskey, and plenty of beer and cocktails, those craving a great Super Bowl will come out happy regardless of the outcome of their chosen team." - Alona Martinez
