"Before dinner at: Ariete, Tigertail & Mary, Atchana’s Homegrown Thai Taurus is the oldest bar in Coconut Grove, but still one of our favorite places to drink in the neighborhood. They happen to be directly next door to two great restaurants, Ariete and Nave, but it’s really easy to walk around in the Grove, so your dinner options are plentiful. Of course, if you do get hungry, Taurus’ bar food game - featuring pizza, wings, and a frita - is also incredibly strong since they share a kitchen with Ariete." - ryan pfeffer
"Coconut Grove’s Taurus is part sit-down restaurant and part bar. It can also be a little of both, if that’s the vibe you’re looking for. But whether you’re coming here just for drinks or a burger - you’ll be dry. Their patio seating is covered, and there’s more covered seating in the back, so don’t panic if all the front patio tables are taken." - ryan pfeffer
"Folks here take their trivia seriously, using an actual buzzer for each answer. When hunger strikes, visitors have the bonus of being next to — and under the umbrella of — a one-star Michelin restaurant (Ariete), which means the bar bites are an experience unto themselves. Trivia Night is on Tuesdays at 8:30 p.m." - Alona Martinez
"The Deal: $9 cocktails $8 boiler makers, $7 beer, and $7 frozen cocktails from 5-8pm daily. The historic Coconut Grove bar has some comfortable outdoor seating for nice days, and inside you can sip on something tasty surrounded by walls that feel and look like they’ve been here since 1920 (which they have). Taurus’ bar food game is also incredibly strong since they share a kitchen with their fantastic neighbors Ariete." - Ryan Pfeffer
"Because voting is stressful business, this well-regarded watering hole is offering a free Havana Lager beer and shot of Woodford Reserve Bourbon to celebrate the day and help take the edge off. Just show a “I Voted” sticker and let the relaxation start." - Alona Martinez
