50 Best Cocktail Bars near Manalapan

“We celebrated a birthday dinner at Angle on 3/28/26. The evening was the most gracious, attentive, delicious dining experiences we've had in Palm Beach. Michael DeLorenzo, our server and wine steward, was superb and professional. The support staff charming. The orders paced and presented perfectly Dining here is not to be missed.“

“I want to give them 10 stars. I was stuck in west palm beach airport and this bar is truly a gem, the bar tender Anthony is one of a kind. The bar and ambience are amazing! I would recommend this bar to everyone and anyone. I wish I was stuck longer so I could stay there longer“

“Hi Great bar! Gotta come back 🥂🥃“

“Great venue, atmosphere, staff and cocktails. What's not to love? Highly recommended.“

“Great music and atmosphere. Food is great!“

“Anthony was such an amazing server! Very friendly and personable. I've been coming here with my boyfriend for a while and never felt the need to give a review until now. He really made us feel special. We're glad he is on the team now, thank you!!“

“My first experience dining here, read the reviews and they sounded good so decided to book a reservation. Arrived at the restaurant had to park four blocks away parking is atrocious. The hostess was busy talking on her phone, never a good sign. Sat down finally, decided on an appetizer and some entrees the waiter came back and said they were out of the appetizer, started off bad. Very limited fish dishes, ordered a steak dish and a fish dish,nothing spectacular and it was tough we did not say anything to the waiter the whole situation from beginning to end a total disappointment, couldn't wait to leave, actually felt nauseated after leaving after eating my fish with risotto, it was so greasy. Very loud place hard to have a conversation.I don't know what the hype is about this place because the prices do not match the food quality or the presentation. Would not recommend nor would I go back ever. The whole vibe was uninspiring and the atmosphere was just not a good experience or fun. I guess if you're a drinker this place might be fun but if you're not it makes waiting for your entree for 45 minutes more excruciating, was not impressed about anything about this place and I wanted to be. Note to manager find a Hostess that seems like she's interested in seating people and not talking on the phone. I could honestly say I had better food at the gas station on the way into town, the homemade empanadas there were amazing. All I can say to people is beware of reviews you'll get burned I know I have on several occasions. I've run into people who absolutely love this place while I've been in town, wish I could say the same. maybe I was there on an off night but waiting 45 minutes for an entree when three of their tables were seated and served before I was seemed a little strange. the wait staff seem tired and uninspired.“

“Nice atmosphere, good food and drinks, but absolutely horrendous, and i mean, horrendous, service. Likely the worst ive had in south florida. I refuse to go back. Every step of the experience was painstakingly slow“

“sushi best of Broward , consistent fresh ingredients.“

“Always good food and beautiful outside area“

“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.“

“Went with my dad for Happy Hour and it was so good. The prices were good too! Gabriela was our server and she was so sweet and gave really good recommendations, she lowkey carried the whole experience. We had to get some tacos (obviously) and they did NOT disappoint.

I don’t even remember what drinks my dad got but I just know he finished every single one so that should tell you everything. Overall the service was amazing, vibes were good, would 100% go back, especially for happy hour 😌“

“On Thursday evening, June 5, 2025, I had the pleasure of dining at Margo’s Kitchen Restaurant alongside my wife, two of my sisters, and one of my brothers-in-law. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed, and the exceptional level of hospitality set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The staff were attentive and courteous, making sure every guest felt comfortable and well taken care of. It was clear that customer satisfaction is a top priority at Margo’s Kitchen. The food was absolutely outstanding—authentic Haitian cuisine prepared with care and rich in flavor. Each dish we ordered was well-seasoned, beautifully presented, and left us thoroughly satisfied. To enhance the dining experience even further, Thursday night happened to be Jazz Night, featuring the smooth and soulful sounds of Wilson Pierre and his talented ensemble. Their live performance created a vibrant, joyful atmosphere that made the evening feel extra special. What stood out most was the genuine involvement of the restaurant owners. They were not only present but actively engaged—personally helping serve dishes, checking on guests, and ensuring everyone was enjoying themselves. Their pride and passion for both the food and the culture were evident in every detail. I am incredibly proud to support and recommend this gem of a Haitian restaurant. Margo’s Kitchen is more than just a place to eat—it’s a cultural experience filled with warmth, flavor, and community. I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to visit and see for themselves what makes this place so special.“

“everything we ate was delicious and fresh and flavorful! can’t wait to go back !“

“The First Class World Class Five Star Services- Colony Hotel Palm Beach. My 2nd Season in a row; will do it over and over again.“

“We were visiting from Mississippi and decided to dine at at the Osteria. What can I say; Joey and his crew are making some of the best Italian food I have ever had. The fish and the steak specials were amazing. Its not everyday you meet a person like Joey with his grace and attention. Go see Joey and his crew as they are making some special food.“

“The food is always delicious and creative!“

“Awesome Event last night. Function Room is great for a private event. Realtor Michael Skovron PA 954.303.6060“

“Honestly such a great spot. We sat in the corner booth, Hillary took great care of us, and everything she suggested was spot on. Food was delicious, portions were perfect, and the manager Tarriss was super friendly and welcoming. Definitely a 10/10, would come back for sure.“

“Hot new spot, great atmosphere, food, service, and drinks. Shout out to Nick, best server EVER,“

“Tonigth we arrived early for dinner, but the manager (Benjamin) made sure we were seated outside in the patio. He took the time to make sure we were comfortable by bringing in a large umbrella by himself. When a manager of an exclusive restaurant like Harry's goes out of his way, it certainly says something special. Oh yes... the food and drinks at Harry's is fantastic. 5 stars for sure! It is the best restaurant in downtown West Palm Beach!“

“Buon Appetito! “Savior the Flavor”. Campi most definitely lived up to the hype. We heard so much about the new restaurant around the way at the Ray Hotel in Pineapple Grove, downtown Delray, so we had to check it out and see what all of the fuss was about. Upon entering the chic, upscale, and aesthetically appealing establishment, we were greeted at the door by two extremely friendly and personable hostesses who immediately sat us at our table. Luckily we had the good fortune of meeting Luca, one of the GM’s, as we made our way to our seat, He graciously welcomed us with a round of sparkling Rose champagne. That set the tone and mood for the evening. A mini charcuterie board consisting of italian salami, chunks of freshly cut parmesan cheese, and an assortment of olives was served along with a basket of freshly baked, hot, bread. I highly recommend dipping the bread and other items in the flavorful olive oil. Our waiter Sebastian was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the menu and made a few recommendations that were home-runs! We started with the caesar salad which was one of the best I’ve had in a while. The lettuce was cool and crisp with the perfect hint of anchovies topped with the right amount of freshly shaved parmesiana cheese. Oh and I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the sweet roasted mini tomatoes which were the perfect complement. Next up we had their lasagna which is the talk of the town. It was served as pinwheels, which was unique, and the homestyle sauce, meat, and other ingredients were so flavorful. It did not disappoint. We took a few minutes to digest and then it was time for the main courses. My wife ordered the pistachio crusted salmon with pesto and our guest JB and I shared the chicken parmesan and short rib agnolotti with fresh horseradish and crispy garlic. Each and every entree was perfectly prepared and presented, and they even split the portions for us. The showstopper was definitely the agnolotti!! After dipping multiple pieces of bread in the various sauces, I finally had to wave the white napkin and surrender. Unfortunately, we had zero room for desert but promised to indulge during our next visit. We will definitely be back! It was truly a special night at this exceptional, fairly new, player to the Delray scene. Lastly, Campi certainly lived up to the reputation of its family restaurant, Campagnola (on the Upper wast side of Manhattan). We cant wait for our next meal at Campi!!

“If you're looking for a solid spot on Atlantic Ave, Beach Club Pizza is worth checking out. The atmosphere is great—it has a clean, relaxed vibe that fits the Delray area perfectly without being too over-the-top.
​The staff is really friendly and attentive, which makes a big difference when the street gets busy. One thing to keep in mind: because it’s right in the heart of the action, parking can be a huge pain. Unless you get lucky with a spot out front, your best bet is to head straight to the Robert Federspiel Garage on SE 1st Ave. If you don't want to deal with a garage at all, there are several valet stands on the side streets right off Atlantic that make things much easier.
​I tried the Croque Madame Pizzetta from their brunch menu and it was excellent. It’s topped with gruyere, country ham, caramelized onions, and a sunnyside egg. It’s a nice change of pace from your typical breakfast or a standard pizza slice—definitely a heavy hitter if you're hungry.
​Overall, it’s a good place to grab a bite and people-watch. They even do fun events like a pilates class in the restaurant! I can't wait to go back.“

“Second visit here. i loved the izakaya. i got the pork belly and the thin sliced beef. i was expecting at least two skewers but it is what it is. they were both very flavorful and i really enjoyed it. both visits i got a JB roll and it was great both times. I also got the kimchi fried rice and it was a very generous portion. tasted amazing. i would absolutely recommend coming in here for some good eats. the server was very kind and attentive. one of the chef even came to me to check on me and see if i enjoyed his food which i did.“

“Me encanta ir a ese lugar, porque es muy rica la comida“

“From the moment we walked in, everything was absolutely amazing. The restaurant had a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the food was outstanding — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish exceeded our expectations.

What truly made the experience unforgettable was our server Anyis. They were attentive, friendly, and incredibly professional. They made sure we were comfortable, checked on us at the perfect times, and gave excellent recommendations. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests and take pride in their work.

Great service can turn a good meal into a great experience, and that’s exactly what happened here. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend both the restaurant and this wonderful server!“

“I have been to a lot of french restaurants over the years but this place really stopped me in my tracks. The Souffle au Fromage has been their signature since 1972 and you understand why the second it arrives at the table. Its tall and golden and somehow still super light inside. We also came on a Tuesday and tried the Beef Wellington special and oh my god the puff pastry was perfectly crispy and that truffle sauce is the kind of thing you close your eyes for. Honestly one of the best meals I have had in a really long time“

“Everything about This Place is 5 Stars All Around... Starting From When you walk in the Atmosphere is Electric with a Jungle Type Feel with Extremely Comfortable Seating on Velvet Cushions... The Staff is Super Pleasant Greeting you The Moment You Step Foot Inside... The Menu gives you 2 Types of Cuisine Latin, or Asian Entrees with Small Plates as Well Tacos, Wings, Empanadas which were all Really Good... Me And My Wife Stopped Down There on a Tuesday after getting off the plane which is a mile from the Airport... We Were so Hungry This place was a Home Run For Us and We will Definitely be Back.... Thank you for the Wonderful Experience at Zen Kitchen & Bar....“

“We both had the smoked bacon appetizer, wedge salads, filet's with a side of mashed potato's. Every item exceeded our expectations, along with the friendly staff and service. The atmosphere is comfortable and quiet unlike large loud bustling corporate entities.“

“Fun atmosphere… recreating a bygone era many miss … Disco… Fabulous D.J.s!… all ages, great mix of patrons, dance dance and dance! Speakeasy💗 It’s a Happy place💃💃🕺“

“Avalon is a must! Beautiful atmosphere and the bar manager was awesome! 🥂🥂“

“We dined there on March 15th. The four of us arrived without a reservation and were seated immediately. A bowl of warm tortilla chips and salsa appeared as soon as we sat down. They have a large menu and the orders come out within a very reasonable time frame and all entrees arrived hot. We all ordered different entrees. I got the California burrito with chicken and it was delicious. We had one issue, however, that I want to note. None of us, unfortunately, speak Spanish and the young lady who took our order was very sweet but did not speak or understand English well. One of us had questions about the fajitas and asked if it could be cooked without the peppers and was told it could. The dish that was delivered was not fajitas ( all of our other orders were correct) and our table member sent it back re-requesting fajitas without peppers. They delivered the second dish, which was chicken fajitas but it was made with green peppers. He just took the dish since the three of us were already eating our entrees. I’m not sure why it was so difficult to order such a common dish without the peppers. He said the dish was OK but also said he wouldn’t be returning. It put a damper on the evening and was a shame since it’s a pretty place and the staff overall were pleasant. The remaining three of us all liked the food and said we would return again but would not want the same server.
Our remaining table mate would not return. Once our server knew the order was wrong she never returned to the table. So, can’t give more than 3 stars for the service.“

“Great view, great food, a must return experience“

“Really great spot! We went for happy hour with our baby and just had appetizers and drinks and they were wonderful and accommodating. We will definitely be back again very soon😊“

“Yummy food. Yummy Drinks.“

“We decided to do something different for our anniversary especially with the cold front that came thru in January. We drove from Vero Beach to test out Puttery. We were greeted by two awesome team members Gabe the manager and Kaitlin the bartender. While we didn’t eat there, the food & drink menu looked pretty awesome. I did indulge in some champagne. We were truly impressed with how Puttery was setup, the vibe and the course. We had a blast and something we said we should bring the kids to do. A good enough time to breakup the day for a hour. There’s Jenga on the tables outside which we played a competitive game of (I won of course) and Chess & Connect 4 for some outdoor fun. It was great to have done a day date there. It wasn’t crowded at all and we had the whole place to ourselves. If you’re looking for a fun date night idea, checking out Drive Shack/Puttery is a great idea. Thanks Gabe & Kaitlin for kicking off our 8yr anniversary celebrations!“

“Alaina, the bar manager at Mr B’s Tavern, is amazing! She’s always so welcoming and makes the bar a fun place to be. One of my favorite things is that she’s always coming up with a new, creative drink for me to try—and they’re always great. Highly recommend sitting at the bar with Alaina! 🥃“

“Great food, just like homemade,great service, friendly staff, and very clean. Will return.“

“Definitely a wonderful addition to Atlantic Ave. The Guac may have been top 3 of all time! The service from Julia made us feel welcomed and at home. And finally it’s obviously already one of the most popular spots in Del Ray beach!

Julia is learning Spanish and Italian, make sure you teach her the word of day if she’s your waitress! She’s wonderful!!“

“Terrific drink Uncle Marty’s Mule and delicious appetizers at Happy Hour prices. Great waiter Jeffrey. We’re coming back!“

“Banter is a great spot within the Canopy hotel to grab a quick breakfast in the morning, which is what I did, or happy hour after work. Loved the wide open and bright space of this establishment which is located right in the lobby area of the hotel.“

“Bartenders are great and super fast, good happy hour menu and drinks were amazing.“

“I had an amazing dinner with my family! The steaks were some of the best we had!!! Heather was super helpful in guiding what gluten free items were safe for me to eat (celiac disease)“

“Their spicy tuna roll was the best I have ever tasted. The staff was phenomenal, very attentive and friendly. The new Winter Park location is awesome, I will definitely be back 😊“

“The food and the service were excellent“

“Here’s the revised version with those changes:

I visit West Palm Beach Airport 5–6 times a year, and there’s a bar I always go to. The staff are friendly, they’re old-fashioned in the best possible way, and it’s a wonderful way to kick off any trip. I can’t recommend it highly enough—even with the option to lounge at Delta, I still make this bar my first stop.“

“AMAZING flavor!!!! I’ll be back…maybe in an hour.“
