Interesting dive bar to say the least. Good prices and quite the entertainment playing on the television

Lily is great but the bartender that's there on Friday night is probably the worst bartender I've ever met. I would wait till maybe Saturday night or something when another bartender is there, but I would not support the one that's there on Fridays she is miserable and she kills the vibe instantly. read more

I like to bring my friends here because it's disgusting and usually have some vintage porn on the TVs. It's a funny place but only offers beer and seltzers. However I have been IDd here countless times and I'm far from 21 years old. Basically if you are not a gross old man gawking at the under dressed woman behind the counter, don't come here. Well unless you want to find drugs. Not cool. read more

If you're looking for the king of dive bars in Fort Lauderdale, this is the place. Kind of off the beaten path, it's the kind of place someone else has to tell you about it. For me it was a construction worker at work. It's cash only and only serves beer and wine. They do have porn playing on the TV here so if you're easily offended this is not the place for you. Definitely some interesting people here. read more

Bimini Bay Bar - Dive Bars Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

See all

Down-and-dirty dive bar with porno on the multiple TVs. It used to be more fun until the morality police cracked down on them. Still worth a visit though. Smoking bar, though. No food. read more

Lily was the best bartender I've ever had. She's incredibly attentive and will never leave you with an empty beer. I highly recommend you visit on a night Lily is working for an exceptional experience read more

Very interesting little spot. Not for the faint of heart, but the people inside were all so friendly.

It's just one of those dive bars that's hard to explain to somebody else. All I can say is, I guarantee you'll never forget your visit! And by all means, leave the kids at home if you have any! read more

Good service, cheap drinks, laid back atmosphere and the scenery is pretty nice. Plus, they have Coors banquet.

Unless you want to have sex with the person sitting next to you , SKIP THIS PLACE ALTOGETHER!!! Cancelled flight has me wondering the area. This place had a 4.5 rating. NO F'N WAY. The bartender dressed like a cheap whore, told me cash only and as I looked around, they have hard core porn playing on the TV in the corner. I was like yeah, I don't have cash and took off. The walls are dark, dingy and disgusting. As a 70 year old woman traveling getting stranded, I fell into this place and my first thoughts were, Geeze, time to vacate these seedy premises!! Unless you are a horny looking to catch something MF'KR, AVOID AT ALL COSTS read more

An authentic, cash-only establishment with a strong local atmosphere. Choose from limited seating options and immerse yourself in the experience. Whether you're stopping by for a quick beer or to relax and people-watch, this spot is worth a visit. It has a distinct vibe, so it's advisable to read reviews beforehand if you're sensitive. Note: explicit content, including adult videos, may be present. read more

I came here after landing and looked for the closest bar. Took a scamming taxi here. Place was chill and laid back. I was the only black guy but I didn't feel out of place read more

There are two types of people in this world: the innocent and then the people who know Bimini Bay Bar. I remember the first time someone brought me to BBB because I was scared my car would be gone when it was time to leave. There are probably nicer places in Tijuana. Safer too. But if you want Disneyland for Degenerates, you've arrived at the right place. Walking through the door, the hardcore porn slaps you in the face much like what the girl is experiencing in the video. As I found my seat for the evening, I ordered a beer from the bartender, who looked oddly familiar. As my eyes traveled back up to this evening's film, I soon realized that I was being served by a celebrity: the bartender was the star on TV! I could describe the seedy atmosphere and various walks-of-life that surrounded me, but if you're not sold by my last sentence then it's not worth continuing this. Just go and experience the last old Florida hold out in town. Or hold your family close and savor your innocence. read more

Nice addition with the pool table but the men's room at the bar is disgusting plus not enough girls showing of anymore at one time it was really a fun place to go it is still fun but not like it once was only a few yrs ago. But we still go there and love it. George&Sandy read more

Don't go here. It used to be a cool hidden cheap late night spot. Nobody really bothering you. Friendly bartender etc. But now it's not safe. There are bikers scamming patrons as they leave, ganging up and pretending that their bikes have been damaged (in the dark), asking for hundreds to fix it or they'll call the cops. They have a game going. And it seems to be a known practice inside the bar. Find cheap beer elsewhere. read more

Best bar ever. Definition of a dive bar. Hot bartenders. Friendly locals. Great entertainment. Friendly atmosphere. Cold beer. What else do you need?!??! beer, wine, seltzers only ~ no hard liquor bring CASH read more

Very interesting establishment. If you are into porn and retired porn start bartenders this place is for you.

If you like dive bars, well you found the dive of all dives. This place ambiance is grundge, late night,cash only, get drunk and forget your worries. The time I spent there the TV's had interesting media playing so if you're sensitive, not your place. The bartender was super nice and quick to serve you. No issues with patrons or service had a great time and will probably end up there again. But not on purpose. read more

This diamond in the rough will please any of its patrons. Right out of the Fort Lauderdale airport, this hidden gem will be the perfect welcoming to one of the greatest cities in the world. Family oriented (so bring the kids why don't ya!!), the bartenders are all super sweet and dressed to impress. This establishment truly cares about its guests and offers around the clock entertainment on their 3 television sets which will keep the guests jiving. Definitely check it out if you've never been. read more

This bar is old school cash only! Super dive vibe but chill nonetheless this bar is super dope! The way she goes read more

It lived up to its reputation as a shithole. Lingerie and graffiti everywhere. Bartender was a 5 in fishnets and a come here daddy tank top. Almost had a gay bar vibe with the place packed with horny guys and no women on a Monday night. Might go back on the weekend. Will update this review if it gets any better. Drinks were cold. read more

I've you're looking for a dodgey hole in the wall that leaves you feeling like you've just completed a cross country motorcycle tour, you've found your place. Nothing says real dive bar than this place. You have to feel comfortable with the people you go with because porn will most likely be playing on the TVs. You can certainly grab a cheap beer, though! They own it, so more power to them! A real local....umm...charm? read more

FIVE STARS AS BEING THE BEST LOW LIFE SLEAZIEST DIVE BAR AROUND. If you love dark sleazy dive bars, porn (straight), loud mouths and drunks this place is the closest to heaven you can find. That is especially true when you add to the fact that it really can be a fun place to hang. It delighted me, if nothing more than I have never found a place that could even begin to compare with it elsewhere in Broward. Women's dirty torn bras hanging from the ceiling, the most deviant of straight porn playing on the television, most often a drunken bikini clad lush of a bartendress plus a good crowd of laughing loud mouthed beer drinking patrons. As far as low life dive bars, what more could one ask. It has it all; low life, filth, drunks, dirt, loud mouths, red necks, some total jerks, outrageously indecent pornography and a good dash of blatant stupid, drunken conversation. read more

I was out for a motorcycle ride and looking for a motorcycle bar for lunch. I saw this place listed as the "Best shithole in south Florida". I walked in and and the bartender greeted me. I had been riding a long time and needed water. The bartender asked me what I wanted. I said "water and a lunch menu". She advised me that they don't have food. Only Beer and Wine. Again she asked me what I wanted. Again I said Water. This went back and forth a couple more times. Finally she gave me a bottle of water and charged me $2.00. The bar is very small and is "decorated" with graffiti. The atmosphere is definitely "adult oriented" including a 42" flat panel TV showing straight porn. Even though the bartender and the regulars (bar flies) were friendly. This isn't my kind of place. I won't be back. read more

This is truly a dive bar... It's a shit hole in a very good way. It's dark, dirty and denge. Cheap drinks and ok service. Oh did I mention the 70's porn that is playing on the televisions. read more

If you've been there, ya' know. What a gem. Friendly bartenders and locals. Beer and wine -- no hard liquor -- but the coldest Bud in town. read more

Bimini Bay Bar - Outside Bimini Bay Bar. - Dive Bars Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

This place is everything the other yelp reviews tell ya! Tiny little dive bar only known to locals that is tucked away behind the 595 on ramp. They only serve beer here so be prepared to knock back a few cold ones among the hanging under garments and graphic movies on the televisions. The female bartender was extremely friendly and was so happy to see a big group of girls come in. Like I said, this is a dive bar so if you are not into that scene don't come because this is the mother of all dive bars! However, if you're looking to people watch and laugh at the weird stuff on Tv, this is your bar. read more

South Florida's most notorious and divey-est dive bar has grown up and gotten more mature, and I'm not sure that's a good thing. Porn still plays on the TVs, but gone are the days of topless and naked bartenders that catch dollar bills (with no hands) and drop quarters into shot glasses (again, with no hands). Some spoil sport must've gotten the county involved and made them cut out the shenanigans, but the shenanigans were what made this place special. What's left is a regular dive that will leave you smelling like you had and ash tray dumped on your head. They have a very limited selection of beers and liquors that's cash only, but *really* cheap. The servers are friendly, and it wouldn't continue have it's notoriety if it wasn't for the usual rowdy crowd. I was there recently with a friend and we'd struck up a conversation with 3 other people at the bar (a woman and 2 men), they were talking about us heading over to one of their places nearby to continue the party. We were ready to go, but were waiting for the woman and one of the guys who had been gone for a while. It turns out they went out to the parking lot to have sex. Classic Bimini Bay. read more

Greatest Train Wreck I've ever been on. And the conductor is the the bar tender. Make sure to bring a change of clothes for the ride home. I love this place Lol! read more

Bimini Bay Bar - Dive Bars Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Bimini Bay bar is a biker/country bar from noon till 5 and after 5pm is a great bar to hang out and have fun. This bar is a little hole in the wall in Fort Lauderdale and yet is one of the most known bars in South Florida, this little hole in the wall bar would make you feel dirty at first because they always play porn on the screens, and a lot of lady undergarments hanging from the ceiling. They have the coldest beer in town, and free peanuts. This bar is a place to visit in Fort Lauderdale, is a great bar to hang out if you are adventurous and naughty. They don't sell liquors or food and the don't take credit cards, they have an atm machine and a juke box with 10,000 songs to choose from. Jenna, Tish, Chelsea, kairy, and the britt are awesome bartenders! Larry is a little grumpy but he is kool to talk to, Jody is awesome but don't say anything bad about his Steelers or he will not be nice to you, just kidding. read more

Don't let the location and exterior fool you. This quaint lounge is a local gem, the asthmatics design is that of classic Floridian. When picking your real estate at the bar you may find yourself parked between a laborer and a lawyer, which makes conversations and people watching one of their greatest attractions, and speaking of attractions, let's talk about the bartenders. These lovelies, stars of stage and film from yesteryear are the highlight of the experience. Play darts or watch classic movies while enjoying drinks, conversation and beautiful women. read more

Wow. Was not expecting this place to be as trashy as it was. The reviews should reflect the fact that this is not a regular dive bar -- there's literally just porn playing on the TVs. The crowd is .... well, you see the type of people you would expect to see at a dive bar that plays porn on the TVs. Pros: - quick service - friendly service Cons: - no liquor - cash only - there's porn on the TVs - the bar attracts a crowd that doesn't mind watching porn in a group setting - need I say more? read more

This was my first time here, and everyone is super cool!! When I sat down , I was cheerfully greeted by Britt. She asked me what I would like to drink and I told her. Seconds later, I had one of the coldest beers in front of me. Throughout my stay, I watched how she interacted with her guests as they were friends, what a great bartender as well as a great dancer The music is great, the atmosphere is great!! Nice crowd!! The service was impeccable, they definitely know how to make you feel welcomed and special!! I also got to meet the manager Jody, very attentive as well as involved in making sure everyone is enjoying themselves!!! I love this place and I'll DEFINITELY be back!!!! I highly recommend it!! Ask for Britt!!! read more

While the Bimini Bay Bar is not everyone's version of "Cheers" those adventurous types, like yours truly will immediately recognize this place as a true gem. Albeit a gem in the rough. We drifted our loaner Porsche Speedster off the street and slid into a tight spot between a Florida Power linesman's pickup and an 80's model Chrysler K car with the windows taped up. I backed in and kept the keys handy, just in case we need to get out in a hurry. The Porsche can intimidate lesser men and impress lesser women all on the same night. But those in the know can spot it as a Volkswagen with lipstick on. There are no windows at the BImini Bay Bar for a reason. You wouldn't want to see inside during glaring daylight. We cracked open the full metal door and the heady mixture of spilled beer and cigarettes smacked our senses like a wet mattress. It took a minute for our eyes to adjust to the light change. Our attention was quickly grabbed by two wide screens featuring XXX porn. It is no holds or holes barred, so you better have your little lady prepared. Expect lots of graphic bodies in action on the 50" flat screens. Could be a great ice breaker if your special someone is feeling frisky. The third smaller television features local sports or ESPN, but not much interest there unless its bracket time. The place is staffed by rotating bartenders. Mostly B or C list ex-porn talent and or strippers. Debbie is definitely worth a look and she is adept at pouring on the charm to keep the boys buying drinks but more importantly, making it rain dollar bills. We came prepared with a fresh stack of Washingtons. For our drinking pleasure we were offered beer, cheap wine and oh yeah sake. The later likely purchased at Costco on sale. No whiskey. Probably a good thing. Whiskey and other 90 proofs are quite flammable on their own accord as well as on tempers. Great conversations were heard and debated about life with local biker types and working men, and to our luck US Navy boys in port for "Fleet Week". Nothing like a bar full of Master Chief Boatswain Mates to get a party started. Both brands of beer were cold and cheap and to keep the class up and danger down, they came in screw top aluminum bottles. A round for the bar was purchased by a busted down 50 year old First Class Quartermaster. It was $35 max... including the bartender who reluctantly joined us in our celebration of life. I say live a little, check it out and you can thank me later. Not a place for the wife, better for your special friend gal... she'll appreciate the classiness. read more

Marqus R and Steve C are right on with their reviews. Not sure I can add much to top them - but please remember to shower when you get home from this place!! We arrived at a restaurant within walking distance from here and one of the guys in the group suddenly remembered that he had been to this hell hole in the area. He gave us the scoop and we read the yelp reviews. After one too many drinks we decided that we had to check it out. Here's the low down: *It's tiny, and awful. If Hoarder's ever has a sex fanatic episode this might be what their house looks like. Eventually the stale cigarette air got to me and I had to leave. *Only one very interesting bartender who had talents I hadn't seen outside of Tootsies. She really was a character and was willing to do ANYTHING for tips. Other reviewers mention just seeing her breasts...we saw more than that! *The TV's are displaying some interesting footage. And maybe we got lucky but we not only had one anal tv but also one threesome tv with breasts the size of basketballs! *Cash only - but they do have an ATM. *Darts - or at least some kind of electric dart machine. *Bathrooms - don't know... I would have held it if I had to go. *Beer and wine only. No I won't be back, but I'm glad I'm able to share the story of "the time we all went to Bimini Bay" lol. 1 star for the place, and 5 stars for the story. read more
