Indulge in a fun night out and get the royalty treatment at Bar La Real, Downtown’s swanky new Latin bar.
If you’re looking to switch things up on a Friday night, then we highly suggest checking out Downtown’s new Latin club, Bar La Real. Created by the team behind Wynwood’s El Patio and Mayami Mexicantina, this luxurious new bar promises to deliver an exclusive Tropiglam experience in all its opulence and elegance.
This swanky new bar hides atop Miami’s historic Post Office building and features a peacock-inspired design with accents of gold and mahogany and Art Deco vibes that will make you feel like you’ve just stepped into the most exclusive of lounges. The word “peacock” translated to Spanish is “Pavo Real” which directly speaks to royalty, adding a crucial layer of the royal treatment to the center of all that is Bar La Real.
“From the atmosphere to the sound, all is curated to appeal to that Latin dandy, that real-life peacock who lives to satisfy their passions for feeling, thinking, dancing and drinking,” says La Real’s Art Director, Carlos ‘Beto’ Perez Fleta.
As part of its royalty treatment, at Bar La Real you’ll be able to enjoy a carefully-curated cocktail menu that offers a totally luxurious experience in itself. Featuring house-made infusion-based elixirs and extravagant fruit caviar, La Real’s craft cocktail selection features unique concoctions such as its “Harakiri” cocktail made with wasabi sake and rose caviar as well as the bar’s own take on classics such as the old fashioned and the mojito.
Also on its menu, you’ll find plenty of champagne and wine as well as extensive offerings in the tequila, mezcal and whiskey space amongst others. Mocktails round out the menu as do special-blend hookah experiences.
The star of the show at Bar La Real, however, is of course the music. As the founders of La Real Academia de la Rumba Latina, La Real’s DJ collective is in charge of curating and reinterpreting the Latin open format and is committed to creating a space where Tropiglam thrives throughout. As part of its musical program, the bar offers weekly themed nights creating a consistent set of offerings that caters to all kinds of musical tastes.
Bar La Real is located in the heart of Downtown and is currently open Thursday through Saturday from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. For more information make sure to check out their website here.
