Seven Seas
- Miami, USA
- Entertainment › Bar
Seven Seas is a genuine Miami neighborhood dive, decorated on the inside like a nautical theme park and filled with University of Miami students, Cuban workers, gays, straights, lesbians and folks from around the way. The best times to come are on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday for the best karaoke in Miami – there's plenty of Spanish-language music, which adds some Latin spice.

New World Symphony
Housed in the New World Center – a funky explosion of cubist lines and geometric curves, fresh white against the blue Miami sky – the acclaimed New World Symphony holds performances from October to May (tickets $20 to $70). The deservedly heralded NWS serves as a three- to four-year preparatory program for very talented musicians who have already graduated from prestigious music schools.

Magnum Lounge
This gay piano lounge is…wait a second. Let's go over those three words again: “Gay piano lounge.” Do we need to tell you more? Oh, fine: Magnum is located on the edge of gentrification, so it feels cool to 'discover' this spot. The interior is all dark shadows and deep reds but not to the point you're blind, and the clientele is a nice mix: gays, lesbians, straights on dates or just looking for something different – and by the way, the drinks are stiff, the prices are reasonable and the piano music is quite good.

Lou's Beer Garden
- Miami, USA
- Entertainment › Pub
We're frankly surprised it took so long for a beer garden to open in Miami. The weather's perfect, right? Nonetheless, this is the first beer garden to open in the Magic City in anyone's memory. Gather around long tables under tropical trees, order a cheese plate or a Kobe beef burger and down pints of Belgian craft ales. What could be better?

Louis
The resident club at the Gansevoort South is dark, crowded, expensive and loud, the music is meh and a 17% gratuity is automatically added to your bill, so the bartenders have little incentive to be nice to you. But Louis, whose interior resembles Marie Antoinette's boudoir after it collided with a Sex Pistols party, is located in the aforementioned Gansevoort, and as such this is the sort of place where you may well rub shoulders with a celebrity. It's Miami Beach; you came here to drink with models and superstars, right? Well, here's a place to do just that.

Kyma
Circle the round bar in the Epic Hotel, then wander past the Euro crowd onto a terrace that juts out over the slow-moving Miami river. Wander back in under 30ft ceilings for a drink, jam out to the soft pumping house music, and revel in this posh take on Miami Vice.
