32 Best Bars in Delray Beach

“Good Night John Boys is the best thing to come to Delray with its great 70's music will make you want to stay on the dance floor all night. When you are there its like being back at studio 54 or even being back at 2001 Odyssey were the original idea of the lighted dance floor came from. John Boys has a vibrant atmosphere like no other club in Delray has. If you have not been here yet then you are missing out on one of the best experience of your life.“

“Wow,the best ask for the tea mojito 👌“

“We dined here on Tuesday night. The French onion soup was the best I’ve ever had. The seafood crepes were also delicious. My hubby had the escargot and the duck which he also enjoyed. The bread pudding was a very nice ending to our meal. This was our 3rd time here and we will be back!“

“We love spending afternoons at Johnny Brown’s. The live music always gives such a fun, relaxed vibe, and it’s become one of our favorite spots to just hang out and enjoy the atmosphere on Atlantic Ave.

The barbecue quesadillas are SO good — definitely one of our regular orders — and the staff has always been friendly and welcoming to our family. As an autism family, places that feel comfortable, easygoing, and accepting really stand out to us, and Johnny Brown’s has always been one of those places. Great music, good food, and a genuinely fun Delray experience every time.“

“Such a cool spot. The drinks are actually really good, and the whole vibe inside is amazing — cloud ceilings, trippy art, and cozy couches everywhere. Sometimes they’ve got a DJ playing EDM with lights, which makes it even better. There’s a pool table and a nice chill outdoor smoking area too. Definitely a place you can hang out for hours.“

“Nice place for drinks after the beach or Saturday/ Sunday afternoon for a few drinks“

“Awesome place to chill, have a drink, happy hour , nice live music and great views“

“5 stars is not enough. The Venetian Street Bar has the best happy hour around — every day from 4–6 PM, they offer 50% off everything — yes, everything — and while that's reason enough to stop by, it's the hospitality that will make you want to come back again and again.

From my very first visit, Ricardo and Christian made me feel like a regular. They’re kind, energetic, genuinely welcoming, and clearly love what they do. Christian, in particular, is nothing short of a cocktail scientist — crafting some of the most creative and delicious drinks I’ve ever had. Every pour, shake, and garnish feels intentional, and it’s clear you’re in the hands of people who truly care about the guest experience.

The food is amazing too — we couldn’t get enough of the margarita flatbread. SO GOOD.

There’s never a dull moment at the Venetian. I’d honestly travel back for a long weekend just to experience the atmosphere here again. That kind of hospitality is rare — and unforgettable.

Do yourself a favor: go for the happy hour, stay for the people. You’ll thank me later!“

“This place is special! Staff is friendly. There is a unique welcoming atmosphere. Try the Komodo and enjoy the relaxing happy vibe. Bring a friend and have a great time. I always have an amazing experience and meet good people. They have a cool collection of pacific island mask art, and they are pet friendly.“

“Hi Great bar! Gotta come back 🥂🥃“

“Down to earth place with friendly bartenders“

“My Mom lives in Delray and we brought her here for drinks before her birthday on a Friday evening in February. It was awesome. Amazing views, cool rooftop bar area, great live yacht rock singer (Jamie!) taking requests. Bethany, the manager made sure that my Mom was celebrated - and we were only there for about an hour and half. I hesitate to share this review because I fear it will become too popular, but for the time being it is a hidden gem near the beach!“

“I visited Hawkers for the 2nd time 2 weeks ago. I brought another group of friends there to celebrate one of our girlfriend's birthdays. Once again it was a great experience. Chef Reggie remembered me from my last visit. Manager Tom welcomed me back. Chef Benjamin came out to meet my friends and I. He wished the birthday girl happy birthday. Our waitress Dakota was very friendly and attentive. The staff made us feel special, and thanked me for coming back again and introducing my friends to the restaurant. We enjoyed the food, our drinks and the vibe of the place. A+ for customer service, hospitality and food. I will definitely come back again. I may even bring a new set of friends with me next time around.“

“We had a lovely dinner tonight and the highlight of our meal was our wonderful server Michael. Michael was so personable, knowledgable of the menu and and provided overall amazing service. We had one small hiccup with our meal and Michael could not have handled it better. He took care of the issue promptly. Our meal was delicous and the drinks were great too!“

“Always a good time! The stage is great, it’s always clean, easy parking. Enjoy!!“

“Clean, fun for all ages, well maintained, convenient location.“

“Healthy meets tasty!!! I'll be back again.“

“Been to the "Turtle" many, many times for a few years now. Same experience every time. Great owner, great bartenders, great patrons & delicious food. I recommend everyone stop in and check it out.“

“Wonderful food and good service 🩷“

“The best date night spot! Food is unreal, one of the best milanesas de pollo I’ve had period. Curtis was our server and I need him to take care of us every time he was the perfect amount attentive & funny 100% would recommend you come here any chance you get!“

“GO FOR THE WINGS! Best EVAH. We went for lemon pepper and Old Bay-Honey. Both were loaded with flavor, tender and moist inside a crispy exterior, just divine. Service: super friendly and welcoming. Tap beers: ice-cold and poured right. We went on a Sunday early evening and it then got very busy. We waited 50min or so for wings and a burger, so there goes a star for starving me lol. I'd wait again though ...“

“Great beers and friendly people!“

“For a quick coffee, consider Delray Coffee Shop inside the Whole Foods. It's in the front, but you still need to go into the store to order. They have a small menu, but offer a variety of lattes with flavored syrup like vanilla. My vanilla latte was not overly sweet. Pair it with an item from the bakery inside Whole Foods right next to the cafe.“

“good kava drinks !!good scenery. good fun . aplus . and no drunk people!! amen 🙏🏻“

“Wonderful food and service, in an absolutely beautiful restaurant! We started with happy hour drinks at the bar before moving to a table on the outside patio (I highly recommend this because you get to enjoy both indoor and outdoor atmospheres!). Our server Ali (Kemal) was great! He was attentive and knowledgeable. Our meals were delicious and the food was plentiful. We had the Burger, Caesar Salad with Salmon, and Brussels Sprouts. On our way out, we had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with Connor Grasso, who gave us an amazing tour of the restaurant and private dining rooms, which are available for large parties or groups. He was so helpful and friendly when I asked if I could take some photos and videos of the space. This is one of my favorite places in the area. The interior design is absolutely stunning. The whole hotel is beautiful. I highly recommend the visit!“

“Sat at bar around 2pm. 2 great espresso Martini’s and had the best yellow tail snapper sautéed in lemon butter sauce with sautéed spinach. Apparently you can ask for linguine with the Lemon sauce instead of spinach. One of the best pieces of fish I have had and the service was excellent.“

“Such an incredible dining experience today at the bar with our bartender Phillip. The GM Jonas has made this place amazing! The food was outstanding! The drinks were delicious and the atmosphere was filled with good energy! We love it there and highly recommend the espresso martinis!“

“Great talking to Al. Lots of stories and a cold beer“

“Took my dad here for Father’s Day brunch and it everything was fantastic even food was delicious.“

“March 2026, came here with friends and sat outside since it was such a nice day. Our Server was wonderful. I did like the fact that they brought bread to our table because lots of restaurants stopped that practice after COVID. I ordered the HENRY'S COBB which was good, and my friend ordered the Chicken Pot Pie that had lots of chicken inside, however the crust topping could have been baked a little more because it was slightly doughy, but the pie tasted good. I am glad we sat outside because when I went inside the restaurant it was loud and noisy.“

“Me encanta es súper para pasar momentos felices“
