Miami's happy hour scene is bigger than its nightlife reputation lets on — over 400 bars run specials across the city, and the going rate is $5: it's the price on roughly three-quarters of the priced deals in our data, covering everything from a craft pint in Wynwood to a sangria in Brickell. Windows open at 3 or 4 PM and routinely hold until 7, later than most cities manage.
This guide covers over 400 bars in Miami, Florida, with over 100 verified happy hour deals. All data is from Happy Hour Map, updated regularly.
Brickell is the after-work anchor, with the finance crowd pouring out of the towers into 4-to-7 windows. Wynwood and the surrounding warehouse districts carry the brewery scene with $5 craft pours, Coral Gables and Coconut Grove run the polished restaurant happy hours, and Little Havana keeps it old-school. South Beach lists deals too, but tourist pricing means a "special" there can cost what full price does inland.

Go on a weekday, but don't write off the weekend: about one bar in four here runs Saturday or Sunday windows — roughly double the share in most big cities.

And happy hour runs long by national standards — plenty of windows stretch to 7 or even 8 PM.
