The Miami

The Verdict

Taking full advantage of its valuable coastal location and sweeping views that stretch from Miami Hill to Greenmount, the casual bistro upstairs and breezy Sports Bar downstairs at The Miami is a breath of fresh air.   

With an on-trend coastal colour palette that stretches across both levels, we love the herringbone floors, blonde wood accents and tables, shades of blue, mosaic tiles and overall light and airy vibe that has wide appeal.

Downstairs, a fully equipped Sports Bar with polished concrete floors, beachy white panelling, shaded patio seating facing the ocean and TVs viewable from every vantage point. Beer lovers will be spoilt for choice with 22 cold brews on tap, together with a swag of other tipples including fanciful cocktails and an extensive wine list.   

Upstairs, the bistro menu can be enjoyed inside in the cool of the AC or outside on the expansive deck, and includes generous share boards like The Miami Board loaded with BBQ pork ribs, addictive halloumi sticks, jerk chicken wings and sweet potato wedges. There are pimped-out classics like oysters by the dozen, steaks off the grill, gourmet personal pizzas and a Wagyu beef burger that you’ll want to super-size with bacon and fried egg. 

With Sunday session season ready to kick into high gear, grab your mates and set your GPS for The Miami—open daily from 10am until late.
