This "rowdy" bar in the Himmarshee area is known for its no frills vibe. As a downtown bar, it is…read moremostly favored for its beers/drinks and as a late night venue. It's had its mix of clientele over the years. Even the tourists and spring breakers have enjoyed coming here. As I'm not much of a drinker, I usually just enjoyed all the crazies -- that is the people watching. And sometimes the music -- in my younger days. We would sometimes stop in after a show at the Broward Center to wait until the traffic died down. Locals should make sure they go there this week. I recently read that they will be closing at the end of this month.

Kim's is a unique bar that is split into two separate bars, connected by a short hallway where the…read moregross bathrooms are lol. One side has pool tables, darts and ping pong, and a long bar. This is usually the more busy side, and very smokey. This place allows smoking inside. Must have been grandfathered in somehow over the decades. Be prepared. If you don't mind smelling like an ashtray the rest of the night, this place is for you. Because it is smokey and you will reek. I've been here quite a few times, it's one of my closest local drinking establishments. Drinks are cheap, the people are loud, and they are there to do some drinking and smoking (or vaping weed lol). It's loud because of all the games on the one side, and is also livelier on weekends. The other side is more chill, has a lot of TVs and it's great for watching sporting events, especially Panthers hockey is big here (I got to watch 4 Nations hockey tourney which was on every TV, so that was a score). There are electronic darts on this side as well. People here are down to earth and I've met some cool people here over the years. I should get here more often, but I'm at the age where I don't park myself in smokey bars as much as my younger days. There's no food, only games and drinking. You can however, order delivery and eat it wherever inside- one bartender encouraged it. Friends and I have had pizzas delivered before. Bartenders are always pretty cool. Great local watering hole that you can smoke or vape in, which is rare. Drinks are cheap and people are chill. It's an unique split bar- divey type bar great for watching sports on one side and playing various games on the other bar side, and a favorite of mine.

LOVE DIVE BARS... My…read morefirst visit tonight provided me a peek into the guts of a true dive bar with pure character. The bartender Ryan was entertaining to say the least with a vast knowledge of his tapped brews. He poured a cold Green City Hazy 6.8% which was a dirty hoppy to start the night. Across from the warm two toned laquered bar was a cooler that offered some good brands of craft beer. The eight foot grizzly bear guarding the front door was a nice touch that added to the already heavy nostalgic ambiance. Returned a few hours later with friends, and found the owner spinning retro records on the turntables brought in by customers. Limited food here but a food truck is parked next to the front door for eats with your brew and dogs are permitted and encouraged. On February 7th we will return for the 15th anniversary of the Laser Wolf.
