Lincoln Road Mall is where Miami shows off. Art, people-watching, high-end shopping, hidden boutiques -- it's all there. Start with a cafecito, stay for lunch, and somehow you'll still be there for dinner. It's lively, unpredictable, and always worth the stroll.
This outdoor mall was a perfect place to visit! The art and installations at this mall were so fun to explore. The stores and restaurants here are so lovely. The only downside is most stores don't open until 11. It would be wonderful if they opened slightly earlier. The only store open in the morning is Starbucks.
Miami staples that's pretty known, but it's not the same as it used to be from all of our previous visit. Walking along the area we noticed that loads of place are empty or boarded up. Major stores are gone and either replaced random shops are completely empty. Gone are the days of the vibrant window displays enticing you to come in and spend money. Some of the chain stores are still there so they're doing well. Of course you have all your restaurants along the walkway with people trying to get you to come in and have a cocktail or meal. I'm used to all the major art installations along the boardwalk but it was very limited this time. They did have some pop up for formula 1 which was interesting. It's still a sample when visiting Miami but it has gone downhill from years prior.
I really enjoyed walking around the area as they have great collection of shops and culinary options. Definitely a great vibe and everyone seems very happy. Most of the stores have promotions and they offer good quality products and beautiful designs. We also enjoyed some coffee and some ice cream gelato.
I had just finished breakfast and was making my way towards Ocean Drive to explore when I stumbled upon Lincoln Road. Lots of people? An outdoor shopping area? I'm there. I was not pressed for time at all, so I decided to browse a little to see what this place was all about. Lincoln Road Mall is essentially a few blocks of Lincoln Road that houses a large selection of shopping. What makes LRM a great place to explore is the fact that the streets are closed off, which creates a large outdoor shopping area. In addition to the shops, there are restaurants and a number of sculptures on display to add to the aesthetics. I would categorize the shopping as low to mid tier, if you're looking for high end/luxury shopping you won't find it here. While I wouldn't put LRM on top of my list of Miami Beach destinations, it is a good place to do a little shopping, grab a bite, and soak in the artwork. Conveniently nestled near other hot spots, it's definitely worth exploring.
Ambiance - 5 Whether you are local or visiting from out of town, you need to walk Lincoln Rd up or down. It's a great to do some shopping while you explore some of the neighborhood art deco and art that is placed along the paseo. These pieces of art are changed From time to time; so if you are like me who goes there every other month, you will always find new pieces of art. Most recommended, enjoy!
I had some time to kill before checking into my hotel and I had some shopping needs to address so this destination was on my radar as soon as I touched down in Miami. This is a long stretch of stores, most of them the usual suspects found in your everyday malls all over the country, Zara, H&M, Lids, Steve Madden, Forever 21, you get the picture but also some nice boutique shops and eateries. From Collins to Washington there is car traffic but after that the streets are open for pedestrians to walk through or rest at as there are plenty of sculptures to admire and benched areas to sit down on. When I began exploring this area it was around 10:45 am and already buzzing with people shopping. It was very hot as well so I think I made it down to Jefferson Avenue but there was at least another block to go of shopping.
Lincoln Road has long been a popular open-air mall that is a mile long in the heart of South Beach for dining and shopping. It is open in the morning until about 10pm. It is a lot of fun to walk around and window shop or find a place to sit and watch people. Dogs are welcome, and you will see many, all leashed, of course. Some of the restaurants provide a bowl of water for them. You can only sit outdoors and dine with your pet. There is also a Regal movie theater at the mall. I believe there are over 100 shops and restaurants at Lincoln Road. There used to be many more shops, but they closed during the pandemic. Do allow several hours to see it all. There are several parking lots and on street parking.
Honestly I never thought I would be back here again. I had a pleasure visiting this outdoor pedestrian mall in Dec 2015. The mall was created in September 30th, 2015 and this mall has more visitor count than The Miami Design District, Brickell City Centre, and Wynwood Miami Retail District in 2021. [Parking]: Plenty of parking lots and garages. I parked at Lincoln Center (1614 FL-907, Miami Beach, FL 33139) and the rate was $4 per hour. Try City of Miami Beach 17th Street Garage (640 17th St, Miami Beach, FL 33139) or City of Miami Beach Pennsylvania Garage (1661 Pennsylvania Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139) for cheaper parking ($2 per hour). [Shops & atmosphere]: It was simply too hot and humid to shop at an outdoor mall like this In the midst of summer. There were certainly not as many retail shops as my last visit in Dec 2015. There aren't too many exciting retail shops, but Salt & Straw is coming in fall 2023. Apparently there's a food hall hidden behind Marshalls (Meridian Ave & Lincoln Lane) called Lincoln Eatery (723 Lincoln Ln N, Miami Beach, FL 33139) and our party completely missed it because we deviated away from the main Lincoln Road & checked the street right next to it. [Events]: There's the Lincoln Road Farmers Market on every Sunday from 9 AM to 6 PM (year-round & rain or shine) and apparently it is one of South Florida's oldest farmers markets. In addition, The Antique & Collectible Market is a seasonal Sunday event and it happens on every other Sunday from mid-October thru mid-May. Other free events (require signing up on the Lincoln Road Mall event calendar page) include community yoga on Lincoln Road on Sunday morning (10 AM to 11 AM) and Beat The Gym Bootcamp on Saturday (9 AM to 10 AM). Do come here on Sunday for the farmers market and also visit Lincoln Eatery. Do NOT come here on sunny afternoon or expect fancy high-end shops here (you'll want to visit Miami Design District [an 18-block neighborhood famous for its ultra high-end shops that rival Beverly Hills] instead).
A great walking strip mall full of shops and restaurants in South Beach. I love the variety of shops and even art galleries to window shop and shop in! A must go to area if you're in the area. There's also the occasional street performer(s) and street vendors.
Came here to see the new art work from Marco during art Basel week. It's always nice to walk down Lincoln road mall for some shopping and then at some yummy food. There is definitely a lot of people so be careful and wear sneakers or comfty shoes for long distance walks.
It was a little sad to see so many stores and restaurants closed. Most restaurants left are tourist traps, they've always been on Lincoln Rd and us locals stay clear of them. I was shocked to see the block right by Alton Rd pretty much empty of anything but a mattress store and a couple of other stores. Are they charging that much that everyone has moved out or to the side streets? There's lots of new stores and restaurants on the side streets. Even the Sunday farmers market was smaller than I remember. It's still a nice place to walk.
My first visit to Lincoln Road Mall was in the early 1970s. I came as a visitor to the area with my family and we stayed close by, so we would come for shopping and walking. Back then the area was not as fancy as it is today, it was a collection of many mom and pop stores with some chains like the old Woolworths. I remember buying some shirts and shorts back then at the Munsingwear store (the original penguin). Today, Lincoln Road is a pedestrians-only boulevard in the very heart of the trendy and expensive South Beach area and it is one of the most popular places to visit in the area. Lined with shops and restaurants in historic Art Deco buildings and shaded by tall trees and fountains, Lincoln Road Mall has some of the best people-watching in Miami. Every restaurant has outdoor seating, and there are street performers and a farmers' market that showcases the local community, farms, and purveyors. Visitors come from all around the world, so grab a some food at a patio outdoor table and people watch....for hours...you will enjoy every minute of it.
Lincoln Road Mall is a must stop when you're either visiting Miami Beach, visiting from out of town or just to have a nice night out. There's a lot of potential to be an even greater destination spot and lots of events and activities. Live music is often played on the weekends. Excellent variety and options for food and desserts along with shops and stores and even art galleries! Most parts of Lincoln Mall are clean and almost every restaurant will offer outdoor seating while providing great service. Great destination with easy parking around and overall spot for dining, shopping and leisure and perfect to relax and people watch. Great mix of high end stores and regular boutique stores to cater to every person. read more
Shopping street in Miami Beach, there are many restaurants, galleries, bars and shops. It's a good place to visit after you leave the sandy beaches for food, clothing pharmacy and grocery. You can see Mr Pink statues and other things to take pictures. It's the mini version of Waikiki, has similar vibes. read more

This is a very decent outdoors mall. Food...check Clothing stores....check Art stores...check Shoe stores...check Vendors with fruit,donuts,cerviche,smoothies and more...check There is so much they have going on here. I believe it was a 8 block mall that has from Zara to and art store. There are several sit down restaurants that are tied in as well. I loved looking at the different architecture that was around. If you are in the middle area where the most trees are, there are several birds. So if you don't only want to people watch...you can bird watch as well. I did realize there were quite a few vacant store fronts which I am assuming is because of covid. The closest thing is you can keep following the pathway to get to the beach after all that shopping..or window shopping! All in all it's a great outdoor mall to visit and drop some cash if you desire to! read more
Miami Beach and the area that is now Lincoln Road was once a mangrove forest. In 1912, Miami Beach developer started clearing the mangroves and created the town social center from the Atlantic to Biscayne Bay. In 1914 construction was started on Lincoln Road, the main street in Miami Beach. It was named after Abraham Lincoln and it was where Fisher had his real estate office. In the 1940's retailers like Bonwit Teller, Saks Fifth Avenue, Harry Winston Jewelers, Cadillac and Packard car dealerships had moved in. Lincoln Road Mall was called "Luxury Lane" and it was the shopping destination of the well to do. It was the place to scoop the newest fashion trends and it was promoted as the "Fifth Avenue of the South." By the 1950's the road was suffering from competition and traffic back ups. Architect Morris Lapidus, who designed Miami Beach's Fountainebleau and Eden Roc hotels was hired to redesign Lincoln Road. He designed Lincoln Road in the MiMo (midcentury modern) design he had pioneered. He closed the mall to traffic making it one of the first pedestrian malls in the nation. Of the controversial decision to close the road, Lapidus said , "I designed Lincoln Road for people- a car never bought anything." Lapidus then added gardens, fountains, shelters, and an amphitheater. A reborn Lincoln Mall had its grand opening on November 28, 1960. In the mid 1980's Lincoln Road Mall had become a vacant trip. Artists started moving in to the area putting their own stamp on the historic mall. In 2006, the Miami Beach Preservation Board approved extending the pedestrian mall west to Alton Road. On May 6, 2011 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Lincoln Road Mall. Today Lincoln Road is an 8-block stretch pedestrian walkway, filled with shops, boutiques, restaurants, cafes all the art deco and Mediterranean architectural styles. There is a multiplex cinema, parking garage, the newly restored Colony Theatre, New World Center concert hall, the offices of Viacom Latin America, along with 200 boutiques, local merchants, national retail stores, restaurants, and bars. It is one of the popular tourist destinations in South Beach. I like to come here to check out the architecture and people watch. The median of the mall is always filled with interesting local vendors and performers. On this trip I spotted the very cool Salty Donut pop up. Lincoln Mall is an iconic South Beach destination. Come out and play tourist for a day. read more
Every time I visit..i seem to find myself at Lincoln Road Mall for multiple reasons.. Shopping: I've forgotten to pack running shoes, jackets, hats, etc and Lincoln Road Mall always has me covered. The retail store selection is extensive in this outdoor mall. Major retail and boutique stores are lined up and down. The H&M and Lululemon are slightly bigger than your typical locations. Restaurants: There's multiple restaurant and bar options throughout the mall. You'll come across many restaurants with outdoor dining setup. It's easy to get a quick bite and some drinks if you need a break from the shopping. People Watching: Sometimes we'd just stroll through as Lincoln Road Mall is diverse with locals and tourists from around the world. You can run into some interesting live street performances throughout the mall. The vibe is energetic as this mall seems to pretty crowded. It's especially crowded in the evening as the diners are out at the restaurants. Centrally located in South Beach, the Lincoln Road Mall has something for everyone. If you're in the area, it's worth a visit even just to check out casually. Enjoy! read more

I have always liked Lincoln road and it is good spot to bring visutors. You can park at the very top of the road in a very cool car park. If you do choose this carpark drive to the very top - from here you will have a great vista view from the top of the whole of the strip and south beach. They have lots of good restaurants dotted all along the road, most with outdoor seating. The shopping pedestrian zone is about a mile long and leads right to the ocean. A ladies dream day - go shopping, do lunch, then beach! It is rather touristy but who cares? It is pedestrian friendly too, and you can take your time. During the pandemic recently a lot of places have shut, however for me it means you take in n appreciate the architecture more. read more

Who doesn't love Lincoln Road? The endless shops, restaurants, people watching, and places to chill make it a MUST to visit frequently. Most of the time I just walk here and go up/down the whole block just to relax a little or to go to my broker's office. It's never a bad idea to catch a movie at the movie theater either at any time of the day or night. I included pictures with this review that I took on one of my nightly walks here. There are a ton of restaurants to choose from with virtually any type of food you might be in the mood for so take your pick. There's also dessert places for ice cream and candy if you happen to have a sweet tooth. There's bars like Meat Market or Finnegan's if you want to grab a drink or watch sports. It's a great place to take a date for either hookah and or drinks since there's three hookah lounges on the strip which are my favorite places to hang outside watching people go by. The many clothing and retail shops are also an option. I highly recommend checking it out and promise you that you won't be disappointed. read more

This mall is a nice break from the indoor malls. It was a nice evening and thankfully the humidity was down which made it much more enjoyable. We ate at Havana 1957 and enjoyed our food. read more

Beautiful on a sunny day with the temperature hovering at around 85 degrees. We managed to find some parking at a meter at the street and put two hours on it. And then we walked the mall. From one end to the other. Lots of food, lots of shops, lots of people. It's really quite nice what they've done here and if the weather's nice, definitely come down and enjoy.
