50 Best Bars near Oakland Park

“A fun family-friendly bar filled with pinball machines, cool decor, lots of beer options & a dog-friendly outdoor seating area. Moon Pizza Pie is connected to Satellite Pinball Lounge (basically the same establishment) and the pizza is out of this world! We started with the mega mozzarella sticks and meatballs with ricotta (we added fresh mozzarella to the meatballs) which were excellent 5-star appetizers but the Philly Cheesesteak pizza with garlic added & the Eclipse with Mikes Hot Honey added were absolutely phenomenal. I was blown away by the taste, fresh ingredients, excellent dough; we even ate the crust with our left over meatball sauce. Highly recommended!“

“My new favorite spot to hangout and have a drink. Owners are warm and welcoming. Excellent service and fun atmosphere with lots of amazing beers and other drinks. A ton of games to play. Different events and great music/ DJs on the weekends. I always love coming here and really can't praise this place enough!!!!“

“Good place to hang and unwind from work.“

“I was here tonight where a lady didn't like her food. I watched the owner and bartender try to resolve the issue immediately for her, with professionalism and pose. The food I had was incredible, not sure what she had. But all I know is, if I was them, I wouldn't have maintained my composure for nearly as long. It was my first time here, and definitely seemed like a stray crazy person on Christmas evening. Pricing is fair and low, ambiance is very family oriented, like a strong community. Fantastic northern bar. A gem for the south Florida community.“

“Exceptional quality of food and service, love the vibe“

“Hidden Gem for Tacos, Karaoke, and Good Vibes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I kept seeing ads for $20 all you can eat tacos 🌮 at this spot on Oakland Park Boulevard, plus Friday night karaoke 🎤, so I finally decided to check it out. None of my friends could make it, so I came solo and honestly I’m really glad I did 😊. I didn’t even read the reviews beforehand, which I should have because they would’ve made my decision even easier. This place is super cute ✨ and has so much potential. I was there from about 7 PM to 10PM and it wasn’t very busy, which surprised me because the food was delicious 🤤. I sat right by the kitchen and couldn’t stop watching all the great looking dishes coming out 🍽️. I did the all you can eat tacos 🌮 and loved every bite. I tried the beef, chicken, and vegetarian tacos. The vegetarian comes with guacamole 🥑, so I mixed and matched a bit to make sure every taco had some guac. No regrets 😄. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive 💛, constantly refilling my water. The DJ was excellent 🎶, playing a fun mix of 90s hits and Spanish music, and when no one was singing karaoke, the music kept the vibe going. He also did a great job encouraging people to get up and sing 🎤. Another thing I loved was the big screen TVs everywhere 📺, so you can see the game no matter where you’re sitting. While I was there, the Miami Heat were absolutely dominating the Detroit Pistons 😂, which made it even more fun. I asked why it wasn’t busier, and they mentioned that Tuesdays are currently their best night. Honestly, I think this place is seriously underrated ⭐ and deserves way more attention than it’s getting. Even though I came by myself, it was the perfect spot to relax, enjoy the AC ❄️, eat unlimited tacos 🌮, and listen to karaoke 🎶. I’m really glad I decided to come out, and I’ll definitely be back 🙌.“

“I remember a few years ago when the new owner took it over and you could tell they really want to provide the best food and service.
The lower end items, tacos and quesadilla are ok... (I am from LA. So I know Mexican food).
So don't let that stop you from going there. They excel at the main dishes! I had the TAMPIQUENA - a grilled steak dish and it was like Wow!! So be adventurous and try a new main dish.“

“Chelsea S. Was our waitress and she was friendly and very helpful. We had happy hour beverages and both the Pina Colada and Coconut Cloud Martini were delicious! Shareable were tasty and filling. I would recommend the Street corn Dip and the Ahi Tuna Tacos. We would recommend and will be back!“

“Had lunch at the Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar and it was fantastic. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the service was attentive and friendly. The whole place has such a great, relaxed vibe—perfect for an easy, enjoyable meal. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to!“

“This was the first time at this restaurant in Davie, Florida as I have been to the one in Doral, Florida. My wife and I decided to stop for lunch, we sat down and Dubraska was our waitress. She took our order, which came quickly, and the food was delicious! Everything was very good, in fact, had to take some home. Dubraska was very kind and quick with our order, and I would recommend this restaurant. So the next time you come to Franciscas’, please ask for Dubraska, and she will take care of you! You will love the food and the service as well! Thank you Dubraska! Will see you again soon!“

“Great atmosphere, great food always consistent. Had 20 of my friends there for New Year's Eve dinner. Place was packed as it usually is. Walter the owner was greeting guest as they were arriving. We had a 7 o'clock reservation, once we got seated our server Angie started with our drink orders. Let me tell you the service was impeccable; she was great dealing with 20 of us. From appetizers to the main course our food came to the table hot and delicious. Some of my friends were there for the first time and could not believe how well the place ran for a busy holiday. I want to thank Marco for helping set up the reservation and especially Angie our server. Thank you, Walter, for your hospitality. Anthony's is my new favorite place. Happy New Year!“

“Amazing Atmosphere and Customer service, Product is always great. I love the Kratom personally but all the drinks always hit well. Highly recommend kava or kratom if you are trying to Substitute Alcohol consumption. All of the staff is friendly and helpful, especially Jake and Connor as they are exceptional bar tenders.“

“All I can say is wow ! I am so pleasantly surprised at the impeccable service we received by our bartender Dustin, not only was his smile and energy contentious he was so passionate about his job it made me question why I haven’t been here sooner.this place is amazing but the staff especially Dustin made it fun and memorable. Oh and the music is amazing if you born in the 90s“

“We had wonderful experience at Cafe Nour. Our server Ori was absolutely fantastic. She was so attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcome. The food was delicious, everything was fresh and perfectly prepared. Thank you Ori, for such great service! We will definitely be back!“

“Breakfast is delicious. Cold glasses for the beer. Beautiful beach view and perfect location.“

“lugar donde puedes pasar un tiempo agradable... te tomas unas cerveza y la puedes disfrutar junto con una hamburguesa yo Les recomiendo la Black amb Blue“

“It’s a cool place, I won’t take that away from them. But I’ve been there a few times and there’s definitely an “in” crowd that seems to be there every time I go. Kind of feels cliquey. And I’ve asked for flavored tea a few times and idk if they’re out or just not listening but I end up with a non flavored tea that I just kind of accept and deal with. It would be nice if the bartenders or whatever you call them actually ask your name or say thank you after you pay them instead of just walking away. Just seems like there’s two rungs of service.“

“Awesome vibes! Friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended! 10 out of 10!“

“Totally enjoyed the food, service, and ambiance at MOV. Great venue for celebrations of any kind.“

“Nice group of people. Amazing bartenders like Frank and Juan. They make you feel like family. The drinks are on point. When you’re not sure what you feel like having, just ask Frank and he will come up with the perfect drynk. Love this place and go to gender I’m in WilMa.“

“I can't fully express how exceptional this restaurant is. I organized a sunset cruise for a group of 24 guests, but unfortunately, they didn’t have the provisions (food) we were expecting. In a moment of panic, I contacted the owner, Jackson, and explained the situation, hoping for a backup plan within 30 minutes (sounds impossible 🥵). Not only did he agree to accommodate us, he immediately began preparing for us. Once we arrived, he and his team welcomed us with such warmth and hospitality. Our table was beautifully set, complete with a customized and printed menu just for us. He chose 3 dinner options for our party and actually had custom printed menus! Wow!! Drinks, salad, and bread were flowing within minutes, and the food? Absolutely divine—without a doubt the best Italian cuisine we’ve ever had. To top it off, there was a live performer who was fantastic! Totally unexpected, we had no clue there was entertainment but such another great treat. She engaged with everyone, took song requests, and even invited guests to join her to sing. The entire experience, from the atmosphere to the impeccable service, was beyond anything we could have hoped for. Jackson even served our table personally and jumped in to assist his team, going the extra mile to make us feel welcomed and special. He continued to check in and make sure we were ok and had everything we needed and accommodated every single request ❤️ I am incredibly grateful for everything. Jackson and his staff turned what could have been a stressful situation into an unforgettable evening. This special group of oncology nurses truly deserved a memorable night, and thanks to you, we got exactly that. Thank you so much for making it an experience we will never forget! 🥰“

“Love this place! It’s the perfect neighborhood bar to hang out and I’ve actually met some really nice guys here. I love the decor and atmosphere. Cheap drinks and super kind bartenders. Dean and Jason are the best! Just bring cash if you can because you cannot add tip to your card charge.“

“Anthony was absolutely amazing! From the moment my mom and I walked in, he made us feel so welcomed. We came in not really knowing what to expect, and Anthony was incredibly friendly, honest, and helpful with his recommendations. You can tell he genuinely cares about giving great service.

On top of that, the food was amazing. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and exceeded our expectations. We love those zucchini, fries as an appetizer, and the bread and oil mixture was a great addition. Anthony truly made our experience even better. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“A quaint little pub for both tourists and the locals. Yummy Strawberry Margaritas which if you get Will as your bartender he makes the best in the area and he has a charming personality. The food is delicious.“

“Went there the year before last before for my birthday . May do it again this September“

“My date and I had a great time! So much fun! Wonderful staff, good drinks, and loved the music!“

“Cool vibe, comfortable chairs, and nice wait staff“

“Tin Cup is a great place to go to eat lunch or dinner. You can even have breakfast there on the weekends or watch a game on one of the many large screen tvs. GREAT STAFF to serve you!!! Definitely check them out any day of the week. Oh yeah, and everyday food and drink specials.“

“Beautiful Lounge with great service!“

“Hopi and Gian served our table last night and did an exceptional job . They were fun, professional, and very knowledgeable, making great suggestions. We enjoyed our experience very much and will back . Make sure to try the charred octopus!“

“We just had dinner there and the food and the server was great but they lost our debit card from the table to check out. Instead of just saying I’m sorry and don’t worry about the bill they asks for another card. Now we are having to cancel a card they lost and running late to get my nephew back his broadway show tour at the performance arts center because we are looking for the card. Very dissatisfied in there customer service“

“From the moment I stepped into Cucina Italiana, I knew I was in for a treat. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between elegance and comfort, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. Our server was both knowledgeable and attentive, recommending the perfect pairings for our meal. To start, the bruschetta was a symphony of flavors, with the freshest tomatoes and just the right hint of garlic. The main course, homemade fettuccine alfredo, was nothing short of spectacular, showcasing the chef’s expertise with perfectly cooked pasta and a creamy, rich sauce that was flavorful yet not overwhelming. What truly set Cucina Italiana apart was the attention to detail. From the perfectly timed courses to the subtle yet inviting decor, every aspect of our meal was thoughtfully curated. As for dessert, the tiramisu was a delightful end to our meal. It was airy, with just the right touch of espresso, leaving us thoroughly satisfied yet longing for our next visit. In a nutshell, Cucina Italiana is not just a restaurant; it’s a culinary journey that I would recommend to anyone seeking an exceptional Italian dining experience in Dania Beach. It’s a must-visit for locals and tourists alike. Bravo! Feel free to adjust this review to better match your personal experience at the restaurant!“

“Bartender physically attacked me threw me backwards came all the way from behind the bar because I was complaining to another bartender about this person grab my neck and threw me as hard as possible outside I landed on my wrist I have not only a broken wrist at this point but broken bones in my hands throughout this is very serious no one bothered to get back to me and I'm in the hospital for a broken wrist suing the s*** out of this club kept my keys and tried to charge some produce for over $1,000 on my credi“

“Margie was amazing. My brother, friend, and I are from Texas and I haven’t met anyone in Florida as nice as her. We’ve been to many places and felt at home and welcomed here!! She deserves a raise. Margie made us feel so welcomed tonight! She was the most welcoming out of anywhere we went these past few days!!!“

“Bob turned dinner into a truly exceptional experience. His attention to detail was second to none. We never had to lift a finger or even look for him because he was always there exactly when we needed him. The food was outstanding, every course arrived perfectly timed, and his service was flawless from start to finish. If you’re lucky enough to have Bob as your server, you’re in for an unforgettable dining experience. Thanks Bob, for a great evening !“

“What a great bar we found here at Fort Lauderdale Airport. We had a long wait for our flight home and found this bar to enjoy a beverage. The bartender Nate was awesome and met some fun people while sitting here. Stop by and check it out and tell Nate we sent you!!!“

“I've tried kava before and was never a fan — the taste is usually rough. But Delight Kava Bar completely changed my mind. Their special tea was surprisingly good: balanced, smooth, and nothing like what I expected from kava. Beyond the drink itself, the atmosphere is exactly what you want — chill, welcoming, no rush. The staff knows their stuff and makes you feel at home. If you're on the fence about kava, this is the place to give it a real shot.“

“This is a nice little cigar lounge perfect for the boys to come to and hang out.

After the Knicks won the championship last weekend the boys decided to stop in for a drink and a cigar, the girls had no choice but to join.
Even if you are not a smoker, the longer is very comfortable inside with plenty of seating for a small group.
The ventilation system in this establishment is amazing, you couldn’t even tell you were sitting in a cigar lounge. We spent a couple hours in here while the boys chatted and talked sports, and we all had a few drinks. It’s a nice relaxing place to come too if you’re looking for a great glass of bourbon and a cigar, highly recommended.
Also, the girls that work in this lounge are very friendly and knowledgeable when it comes to cigars and what drink would go great with cigars.“

“Came for a friend's 40th birthday. Came on a Saturday morning for private party. Atmosphere was fun and welcoming, lots of games to keep you entertained and good vibes from all the staff. I recommend the Watermelon Vine ( It will creep up on you but soo yummy) would be back for date night.“

“Friendly staff and great service“

“Great detail in the cocktails. Sophisticated drinks and gentle vibe“

“Well my honest opinion and we have lived here 39 yrs. It's no longer a country bar. In your face drag 6 nights a wk. The large groups of Country Dancers are welcome at other bars. Hunters and Eagle bar.No drag.“

“Great little bar inside the Riverside! If Monica is working, you’re in for a treat !!!“

“fun time good drinks and friendly people“

“Went to the Palm Room on Las Olas this Saturday, and once again had an amazing time. I’ve been here before and enjoyed it, so I decided to come back with friends—and it did not disappoint. The crowd is very mixed, which made us feel comfortable right away. The drinks were great and reasonably priced, and the music was on point. Definitely recommend checking it out.“

“Freddie’s is a well-equipped a bar for sports enthusiasts: More than a dozen large screens can be tuned to multiple sporting events. As a bar, it had a limited but satisfying beer and liquor selection but offsets that lack of variety with high quality food. The wings are amazing, and there are lots of fried seafood, salads, sandwiches and burgers, all fresher and tastier than you’d expect. This is also a no frills bar for locals, a true neighborhood hangout worth getting to know even if you don’t live in the neighborhood.“

“Laser Wolf is a great local "Stranger Things" themed bar serving up a wide variety of cold brewskis. The walls are filled to the brim with nostalgic memorabilia from the yester years of the 00's. They frequently have food trucks that visit, ranging from tasty smashy crispy burgers, to their own fantastic taco express food truck (best hot sauce!) and even a legendary Geisha master shows up every now and then. Only negative thing is that they never have Sam Adams. Music could be better too. No reggaeton. Still 5 stars I think.“

“The iconic spot for everything cool in Ft.Lauderdale.“

“i had a blast tonight with kat she was so much fun! its definitely an adult bar but if you like strip clubs this way more fun!“
