25 Best Cocktail Bars near Coconut Creek

“The food is always spot on . From the second you walk in the door from the hostess to your server, the attention of service is top notch. Everyone is familiar with the entire menu and can answer any question possible about dietary restrictions or substituting something to make your experience like no other.“

“For the Standard Crowd
Stop ordering Tito’s Sodas and Espresso Martinis. These are not Fort Lauderdale Airport bartenders. They are on another level. Explore new drinks and discover a world previously unbeknownst to you.

For the Cocktail-Savvy Crowd
Expect well-executed classics and a menu full of smash hits and acquired tastes — crafted by a legend and brought to life by up-and-coming cocktail superstars. Their Bounty Daiquiri and Probitas Daiquiri are both delicious. While the fast-paced environment does limit the level of detail and technique I personally enjoy, it’s understandable — they’ve got quotas to hit. It’s the standard big-city bar rhythm: efficient, energetic, and volume-driven.

For the Cocktail-Autistic (Like Me)
Their classics are phenomenal.
If I had feedback, it would be temperature control. Some drinks felt slightly too warm, likely due to missed chilling steps. I recommend chilling everything before building: spirits, mixers, glassware — even carbonated ingredients. There might be some technique improvements that could be made.

Also, consider investing in spear ice. Yes, it’s pricey, but it meaningfully improves the experience by reducing surface area and slowing dilution.

Another detail: avoid garnishing sour drinks with lime wheels directly on the surface of the cocktail. As they sit, they leach bitterness into the drink. Skip the lime wheel and save a bit on your happy hour daiquiris — lime prices are only going up. You’re welcome; I just improved your margins.

Lastly (and this may sound counterintuitive): your drink volumes might be too high. Many feel like they’re built with 3 oz of base spirit. The Negroni in particular feels like 5 oz total. I’d suggest slightly lowering the overall volume. It would:
-Allow guests to enjoy more drinks in one sitting
-Improve guest pacing and per-head spend
-Make pricing more approachable (e.g. from $17–20 to $15–18)

I know this means changing every glass and possibly reworking your build strategy, but the long-term payoff in margins and guest experience could be well worth it.

Train your staff (especially on slow days) on unreasonable hospitality.“

“Wonderful food and such excellent service! Definitely will be back! Loved the fritters and the poutine, sooo yummy!“

“Great vibe! Loved it all; from the service to the cocktails to the small plates. Interesting concept with limited tables plus chill couches and coffee tables. We had plenty with three small plates and a couple of cocktails between the two of us.“

“I always go to Rocco's but this time their service was not that good. They brought my main courses before my appetizers , I cancelled one of the appetizers as it didn't make any sense anymore , drinks were late. Food is always good though“

“Absolute Gem, AMAZING SERVICE, food was Outstanding. Great Entertainment Shawn the staff, well done!! We will definitely be back.“

“We had a fantastic evening at Drift Bar last night. The service was exceptional, with our waiter, Mert, being incredibly attentive and friendly. Supervisor Rachael was also very welcoming and ensured we had a pleasant experience. We truly appreciated the cordial and professional service from the entire team. We highly recommend Drift Bar for a delightful and enjoyable evening."“

“So I've never been here till today but the people are great and the food is fantastic. The chef brings you your food, and of course ask how it was. Which in most places you don't get. If you have any left that you want to take home he even boxes it up for you. Honestly if you want a good lunch that's done right, here's the bed spot. A must try“

“I ride over 60 miles from Miami just to drink here 🤘“

“Wasn’t expecting to need a reservation on a rainy Sunday evening, but alas, even with multiple empty tables, we had to sit at the bar. The food was just OK honestly for the amount we spent it could’ve been a lot better. A bottle of champagne is three times a normal price. The oysters smelled fishy, but thankfully, they let me send them back and the other items that we tried were tasty.. our bartender Julia was fabulous. The presentation was a lot of fun. The atmosphere is hip and trendy, and the view is spectacular. Make a reservation. It requires a credit card, which is a bit much, it reminds me of a fine dining establishment in the middle of New York City but I guess they want people to show for their reservations and that’s one way to do it. I lost my credit card there…“

“Great spot for events and live music! The staff is awesome and the vibe is always right. They also host some great stand up comedy nights.“

“Great people... good prices. Fun place.“

“If you traveled out of south Florida for culture & charm you haven't been to the Rev yet! Enjoy the kitchyquirk ambiance as much as the drinks, and there's always an event to jump in on! Hidden 🌟 pearl tucked into a strip, good parking.“

“Great food, friendly service, and a beautiful atmosphere.“

“Very nice bar, great view to the water. Great service.Learn about the Brain on Instagram: "2fightstroke"  Every 40 seconds someone suffers a Stroke. Learn Stroke symptoms with the BEFAST and save a life. Lower your risk factors for strokes.  Help fight stroke.“

“An awesome place where everybody knows your name. The prices are very affordable and the Drinks are ice cold. Not to forget some good old-school Bartenders like AM Dave on the weekends at 7am. Sherbear and Kelly in the afternoon. Trace and Tim at night will ensure your favorite sports are on one of the 8 TV's.“

“wonderful cocktails and tapas!“

“great food and great place to watch Panthers Hockey“

“Great place for a celebration!“

“We started coming here recently and now we visit a few times a week. The Burata pie is my favorite followed by their pear pasta appetizer.“

“The food, cocktails and staff over the top wonderful! We highly recommend the great menu and the margaritas were delicious! The staff was so efficient, helpful and full of fun! Please give them try...you will not regret your decision!“

“Came here for dinner with a large group for a very late dinner. They were about to close the kitchen and still accommodated us. It was very nice of them to allow us to dine and enjoy our time together after a long day of activities. There was a mix up with splitting the bill, but Muhammad, the manager, did an outstanding job of making everything right.

There was a few times I ordered to go from the bar, and Barbara, the bartender, was very genuine and kind. She was alone and was so good at multitasking, from taking phone orders to making conversation with me, to handling other patrons. She's such a hard worker.

During breakfast dine ins, the staff is attentive and kind. Pray, the manager, also did a wonderful job of checking in and asking how my dining experience was going. Overall, a good place to eat. Food is actually good for hotel food! I was pleasantly surprised.“

“The waitstaff were excellent and the views were very nice. I had the shrimp tacos that were actually quite good. I had a little difficult time finding the restaurant. It is on the 6th floor of the hotel requiring a room key that is easily obtained by the front desk staff. Overall I was very happy with my experience.“

“Brenda is the best great service and place is always clean great clientele“

“This rooftop bar is absolutely amazing! The views are breathtaking, offering the perfect backdrop for sunsets and city lights. The cocktails are creative and well-balanced, with something for every palate. The vibe is relaxed yet upscale, and the staff makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in – a must-visit spot!“
