50 Best Cocktail Bars near Manalapan

“The resort is beautiful, and the food is amazing. However, the only downside was that I could hear a couple of employees talking and cursing, which wasn’t a very pleasant experience. It didn’t quite live up to the 5-star rating.“

“We had a family dinner of five at Angle this past June. It was our first time at Angle (but not at the Eau), and from the minute the valet picked up our car to the minute he brought it back, it was an exceptional experience. Since it was the off-season, it was not crowded at all, which was nice. The soft piano music was a lovely touch. The wait staff was phenomenal, the food was incredible, and the great attention to detail was not lost on us. It was the small things, like the tree stand for the to go bag, the beautiful boxed chocolates that came with the bill, the acknowledgment of our special event, the greeting of “Mr.”, etc. The dining room is spotless, well spaced out, and comfortable. There were several people working, but it never felt crowded or like you were being watched. I only took a few pictures of what we ordered because we started eating immediately because it was so delicious. Lol. We are still sad that Polpo closed, but we loved Angle and will definitely be back.“

“Hi Alice! I just wanted to say thank you so much for taking care of us at Rocco’s tonight! You were absolutely amazing! You were so sweet, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. You truly made our night and gave us such a wonderful experience. We really appreciate 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.“

“sushi best of Broward , consistent fresh ingredients.“

“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“

“I was looking for a place where I can smoke indoors in a comfortable air conditioned environment. Close to work on the way home.
First time here.
Smoke like a chimney & drink like a fish.
ASAP stands for:
Alcohol Solves All Problems ☠🤣“

“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.“

“The food is always delicious and creative!“

“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.“

“Great music and atmosphere. Food is great!“

“Had a great experience at this Mexican restaurant, and Gabriela was definitely one of the highlights! She was friendly, attentive, professional, and made sure we felt welcome from the moment we sat at the bar. She knows her drinks, has a great personality, and provided excellent service throughout our visit.“

“As native New Yorkers and Italian foodies, this place is by far the uncontested best Italian food we've found in Florida to date! Savannah our waitress was lovely! And owner Joey is a hoot! And by the way, the prices won't break the bank! Come check it out!! Mangia!!!!“

“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.“

“Wonderful food and good service 🩷“

“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)“

“From the hostess to the incredible service. Everything about La Goulue is amazing! The cocktails and food are absolutely incredible. They are extremely attentive. Definitely one of my go to spots to go on the island! I look forward to eating here every time.“

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

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

“10/10 date night spot. The vibe was exactly what we were looking for—great music, cozy atmosphere, and an awesome downtown West Palm Beach location.

The service was outstanding. Our waitress was incredibly attentive and gave us spot-on recommendations. You could tell she was genuinely excited about the chef’s seasonal menu, which made us even more excited to try it.

Every bite was delicious. Great food, great wine, great service, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay for another glass. Highly recommend for a date night or catching up with friends.“

“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!“

“We frequent this restaurant because it is simply excellent. The food is incredible and the staff goes above and beyond. We held a private party at the restaurant last night for a celebration of life with 40 people. Most of the people had never gone before to the restaurant and just raved about it. They couldn’t have done a better job. I highly suggest trying this restaurant out if you haven’t gone.“

“Traveled to WPM and we decided to go have diner here. Without a doubt best choice! The vibe, food and service were outstanding!. Our waiter Lex, and all other staff and owner very friendly. We liked it so much we decided to go back the next day for lunch. When we got there they were hosting a brunch and paint, followed by karaoke later on. So yes, If in the area it’s a must check out spot!“

“Great food, sexy nenu and the tequilla selection is off the charts ! 5 star *****“

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

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

“The food was mostly good. I had the Branzino which was excellent. My husband had the pork, which was average. We tried the Calamari appetizer special which was a little too dark but tasty. The wine list had some good options, but it was extremely over priced. Service was good, but the lacked a little communication between the waitstaff. The atmosphere was very lively which I normally love, but we had to sit outside because it was just too loud inside. The acoustics are horrible. You literally have to scream at each other to speak because of the bad acoustics a very loud music so if I had to dine indoors I would have lost my mind. Overall, sitting outside was a good experience.“

“Great service! Our waiter recommended really good dishes. We ordered the crab rangoon, prime tiger, chicken wings, and Thai salad, and everything was absolutely delicious! We loved the spices and seasonings, every dish was packed with flavor. It was one of those meals where we enjoyed every single bite. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“One of my newest favorite restaurants. Great service, food and drink. It will be a frequent stop for us.“

“I was there on Saturday with a large group and the food and service were excellent. Our server Jackie was the best!!! I will definitely be back 😊“

“We had so much fun we came back multiple times! We played their mini golf. Admittedly at first it looked a bit boring but it was anything but! So much fun and you can play as many times as you want!!!
We had such fun driving we added more time!“

“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!! RobandegEats rates Campi (4.5)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5“

“We had such an amazing time last evening!! The Date Night band was so much fun!! Music was tasteful and just the right volume to dance and also have conversations!! Banter staff was amazing being sure to accommodate everyone and with smiles and such good energy! Hats off to the manager Cesar for doing such a great job!! What a FANTASTIC TIME!! We look forward to enjoying this kind of experience again. Date Night band is perfect for this venue. Thanks to all!!“

“great Mexican spot! we have gotten the pollo asado, nachos, chips and queso, bowl (chicken and steak), quesadillas and all have been very very good. solid kids menu as well - classic kids items as well as kids portion of the pollo asado with the spanish rice and black beans. they have black beans, refried beans and pinto beans options which is great because i feel like most mexican places only have refried beans. we tried the flautas once but they weren't our cup of tea. still would recommend - great menu something for everyone“

“We enjoy coming here, the food is good and its a good bar. Love the wings. The back area for darts and shooting pool is also makes this a favorite. We love this place. Only complaint is the DJ is questionable/sus so hopefully they change it up more often.“

“This is a cool bar that generally has really great live music. It's a small place but not overly tight, it has a little space to dance. I really liked the vibe and the type of music. The decorations are also very well done, the stage looks like a boat and there were some humorous signs. Recommended.“

“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 😊“

“First time here & this was a great experience! Checking off your menu for what you'd like with a pencil was fun & then putting our card up for any service/questions. Genius ideas! My GF pasta cavatelli was probably the best GF pasta meal I've had with NO cross-contamination issues. My fiancé loved his pizza! We'll be back. Our server was amazing.“

“Yummy food. Yummy Drinks.“

“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.“

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

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

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

“El mejor taco caribeño, primera vez que lo trato y fue súper bueno. La comida súper buena y el personal súper activo y muy amable . Ustedes todos son súper“
