How did I not know about this place?! Completely hidden from bird road view, is this hidden Jem on the ground floor of the residential building. Great vibe, great service, great drinks and GREAT music. DJ had us singing and dancing the entire time we were there. Indoor, outdoor and bar seating available, dog friendly and has a little playground for the kids! Brunch: $25 a bottle of Prosecco (not my favorite mimosa package but not terrible); breakfast pizza hit the spot; fries were crispy and seasoned well; steak and eggs were cooked to perfection; the meatballs were too salty but paired well with the cottage cheese; wings were good too. Overall great spot for brunch. Happy hour: loved brunch so much we had to come back for happy hour. Again great music! Drink and oyster deals are worth it! Wine and beer is NOT BOGO it's buy one get one half off! Just fyi. The white pizza was not it! But burgers and fries are delish. Music was also on point once again. Make a reservation though! They close the doors and if you're outside you don't hear the music. But does give a more chill atmosphere. Parking is limited and pricey but Thorn validates it! Make sure you scan the QR code on the menu before paying for parking! read more

We had an office party at this location and we sat outside. The drinks were excellent and so were the appetizers; one of the bartenders had graduated from the school where we all worked so I think she gave us some extra TLC, but it was definitely a positive experience on a weekday. I have never been there on a weekend. I'm not sure how busy it is, but for Office gatherings it was fun. read more

Pretty good happy hour spot! The wings and pizza were absolutely delicious, and so was the burger. The fries were just frozen fries - nothing to write home about. Not bad at all, just not as amazing as everything else. The drink was great too - it tasted almost like a piña colada. The parking was the most annoying part - I got lucky and found a spot but if you come at the wrong time ... it gets PACKED. And expensive. And the inside is VERY loud - but that makes sense, it's a bar. Super nice wait staff. I'd come back. Definitely want to try the oysters! read more

We came on a Wednesday even right around when happy hour started. There were not any tables available at the time but luckily a group was getting up from the bar. We started the evening off with a tequila shot and some deliciously spicy tequila cocktails called the Delinquintes that was so good! For food we ordered a dozen oysters because they are only $1 during happy hour, one happy hour meatball, and a happy hour pizza. While the meatball and pizza were delicious the oysters we had were not great, my friend had one she swears was rotten while the ones I tasted were sandy and did not have a great flavor. Besides the oysters I would say this place is one of my favorite hidden happy hours I've been to in a while. The atmosphere is great, happy hour cocktails were all delicious, the bar staff was quick and kind. Hoping we just had a bad batch of oysters and I'd be willing to come back and try again because everything else was so wonderful read more

Thorn - Sangria Sprits - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Miami, Florida

Decided to have a good start to the year after a rough last one, and couldn't have chosen a better spot! Its got a bit of an "old world" vibe with the furniture and the darker tones, which I personally dig. They got retractable doors which are perfect for chilly days, two outdoor seating areas, and a long standing area in between them. The place does get packed according to the crew so timing, as with most places is important. Pulled up at 5 on the dot, right on time for Happy Hour, which runs from 3-7 (!!!) and a "Sad Hour" from 10-Close as well. Each with special menu items and prices. They also offer a free dozen oysters with a purchase of a wine* bottle. Here's what I had: - $1 Oysters - Natty Jack burger with fries - El Muerto (Espresso Martini with Mezcal and orange hint) - Bad Juju (Gin) - Voodoo Doll (Burbon with some wine) Drinks were all great and well-made, had been a while since I had oysters but were also great. Burger was a straight to the point, classic smashburguesa. Successful first time and great way to kick off the year. Thanks to Lauren and Vanessa for their service, they had the bar buzzing the whole night. Looking forward to coming back for Crybaby which I didn't get to try, have heard great things. Slide to the MLine and see for yourself! read more

Hidden gem Great neighborhood bar with amazing drinks and food. Love the atmosphere and laidback vibe.

Came to Thorn to check out their happy hour. For drinks, we ordered: They Call Her Lola - Skyy Vodka, Aperol, Passiontruit, Orange Flower Water Bad Juju - Big Cypress Magic City Gin, Absinthe, Lime, Cucumber, Mint Doug's Old Fashioned - Banana Infused Sisne Whiskey, Brown Sugar, Cinnamon, Black Walnut Bitters All the drinks were well prepared. I would come back and order them again. Not bad for $10. For food were ordered: Chef Fries - Crispy French Fries, Herb Blend, Feathered Parmesan. Delicious!!!! Oysters - they were great and I loved the mignonette Wings - We chose the lemon pepper and it was delicious! Would definitely order them again. Natty Jack Burger - Butcher's Blend Smash Burger, American cheese, house pickle, Potato Roll. The burger was the only thing we were not thrilled about. Everything in it was yummy, except the actual patty, if that makes any sense. lol Can't wait to come back to try more things from the happy hour and regular menu as well read more

My wife and I ate and drank at Thorn recently. I had a hamburger, which was a two patty smash burger; my wife had the meatball with ricotta. The bartender served an old fashioned for me and red wine for my wife. It was a pleasant way to spend a rainy afternoon. read more

Always an amazing expertise. Love the 'locals' vibe. Was here for Monday Night Football and Patty provided exceptional service like always. read more

Food, drinks, and service are top tier! Also like their entertainment. The only downside here is the parking. Arrive early and remember to validate or pay for parking. The parking fines are pretty rough. read more

Thorn just opened downstairs (yes, I am one of the lucky ones who lives in the building next door) and I've visited at least 3x since opening. The menu is small -- there are only 3 main entrees listed -- but the burger and fries are fantastic. Tonight my bf and I tried the Caesar salad and wings (house rub and lemon pepper) and are fans. The only thing I was a bit confused on was the ranch that came with my wings - it definitely tasted more like tzatziki. It was tasty, but not ranch :) Cocktails are also great - "They Call Her Lola" is refreshing and seems to be one of the most ordered drinks on the menu. This place is getting more popular as there really isn't anything like it in this area. I'm next door so I'm definitely returning, but I hope they consider adding a few more options to their menu! read more

Thorn is such a vibe. Fiona and Michelle are super attentive and kind. They give wonderful service here and the food is absolutely delicious. From the fresh hot fries to the sliders and my favorite wings anything you order won't disappoint. Loved my experience here read more

The server was so nice!! But we only came for drinks and they were not good at all. The environment is cool. Nice location, but a major pass! The drinks were horrible. read more

i've been wanting to come here for a while as i've heard such great things about thorn. I decided to come here on a saturday night, and it was extremely busy. They had a dj, people dancing and basically if you wanted to hear your friends talk you would have to sit outside. I saw many parties celebrating birthdays and having a great time. I opd for outside seating, and had some cocktails. The cocktails are Amazing!! I've heard their food is good but they were out of a couple things and I only tried the meatballs, and they were extremely cold. I think I would come during happy hour or earlier when they are not so busy to really get the full experience and try their food. read more

Heard of this spot through a friend. As soon as you walk in and see the cool decor and music you immediately know you're in for a chill time. Sat at the bar and was immediately warmly greeted by the bartender. I ordered the mimosa-tini on their Brunch menu and the French toast sticks. Absolutely delish!! My favorite drink though was the "they call me Lola". It was sooooo refreshing and delicious. The only issue we had was a delay in our chicken wings (maybe a kitchen issue) but they were super apologetic about it. Will definitely be back to try other items on menu. read more

A bit difficult to find at first, but it's such a hidden gem. Thorn was a random last-minute find (thanks to Google) but a great spot to catch up with friends: small, modern industrial design and fun cocktail options. (Mine: passion fruit aperol spritz; theirs: something extra sweet). Though we only tried two things (bulgogi fries and bread pudding) the place deserves 5 stars for fantastic service--Alan went above and beyond: helping us find our way from the parking lot, helping us with the app and explaining everything so well. read more

I've been to all other locations that are owned by same ownership and I would say I'm impressed with their selections. Their cocktails are delicious , we tried the Sunset dreams , Tres delinquentes and El muerto. They do have happy hour daily Monday-Friday 3pm-7pm with a huge selection of items. My partner ordered about 24 oysters since during happy hour they are $1. They are absolutely delicious ! We also ordered the Natty burger priced @ $10 during happy hour and the Marg pizza priced @ $10 as well. The atmosphere is very relaxing and it makes you feel as if you aren't in your home town. Talk about vacay vibes haha. Bartenders and staff were very welcoming and attentive, and just our luck today it is R&B night on Valentine's Day. Woot woot Would definitely rate this 10/10! You should definitely check this spot out ! read more

My son suggested this place when I asked for somewhere with a good burger. I was in the mood for something juicy, so I opted for their burger with the fried cheese, since the original burger is a smash burger. My meal did not disappoint! It was juicy and delicious, and the hunk of queso frito was to die for. The server suggested I put the hot honey sauce on the side, and she was correct. Sauce was great for my fries but not on the burger. The place is small but cozy and had a nice vibe. We had a nice time. My only reason for four stars is the limited selection of food and the prices. $60 is a bit steep for two burgers, a beer, and a lemonade! read more

Ok first if you never been here or not going with someone that has, it's hard to find via GPS. It's on Bird rd but it sets back off bird road in between the new apartment buildings, if you go past the post office then you passed it. There is a small driveway right past the sushi restaurant and some parking there. They do validate parking for 3 hrs. OK so the service was great, you are greeted when you step in the door, and you can sit anywhere that is not reserved. There is inside and outside seating. We went for brunch and DJ Marvel was killing it with the music. You can't help but chair dance while eating. Brunch menu while yes it's small but the food was sooooo good. And the drinks, the bartender put his foot in those drinks. This is a great casual spot that I would definitely come back to again. read more

Great little bar that recently opened in the Bird Road area! We love coming here after work for their Monday to Friday happy hour. They have a great selection of bites and drinks on their menu. Our go to bites are their wings, pizzas and their smash burger. Our favorite drinks are the Tres Delinquentes (Spicy Margarita) and El Muerto (Espresso Martini). Everything on the menu is great and we have never been disappointed. This place offers great drinks, bites, service and music! The vibes are just great. read more

I have been beasting to try this place for happy hour after hearing some of my Yelp friends talk about it. So when my friend wanted to go out on a Sunday afternoon this wasn't my first thought- but I am glad we decided to come. So it's important that you go to their IG to understand where to park- it's a little confusing- but they do comp parking so it worth it to check before. This place is on bird rd but it's so offset of the road that once you are inside- it feels like you are somewhere else. As you enter you find a very cute space. We ordered some mimosas, beer, brisket fries and bbq chicken pizza. The server passed by frequently to check on us- which inspired us to buy a bottle of wine after the mimosas lol. The brisket fries were DELICIOUS. We really enjoyed the meat, it was tender. The sauce on it was great. The pizza was good- they didn't put onions so it threw me off a little. The music being played was great- 90s music for us grown folks. They also had the dolphins game on which my husband was happy for. I cannot wait to come back for happy hour where they have $1 oysters!!!! read more

The place is beautiful, but unfortunately just another over priced spot to get mediocre drinks and do not order the Margherita pizza. If it had 2 tablespoons of cheese, we were lucky. It was over cooked and all dough There were literally 4 sprigs of burnt basil on it. Only because we were hungry and we had a time restriction that we stayed. The hostess would be better suited to greet people at a funeral home. When we asked her for red pepper, I guess it was too much for her to accomplish. We had to get up, look around and go to her station at front door. When we did, she just looked up from her phone and replied ok, as though she were hearing us ask for the first time. Very disappointing. read more

We had a great time here. It's a bit hard to find and I don't remember exactly what the deal was, but seems like you paid for your parking and then got a partial reimbursement inside. It's also super popular and crowded on the weekends, so we came mid-week to check it out. The drinks are really cool. I tried They Call Her Lola with sky vodka, Aperol and passion fruit orange flower water. So refreshing. Then I tried a Chim Chim Chiree--apple Jack infused sky vodka with a biscotti liquor and apple juice, and an apple Jack rim. Yummy! We ate from the bar menu. We had oysters, the Margherita pizza and the natty Jack burgers. A very pleasing happy hour spot! read more

We found ourselves at Thorn on a weekend around lunch after wanting to go for quite some time. They have a huge outdoor area that makes for those evenings when you just want to chill and have good conversation. Thorn has a good array of specialty drinks which are made with precision and are delicious. We got the Bulgogi Fries and Cheese Pizza to share and it was super yummy. My favorite were the fries. I can't wait to return to try more drinks and menu items. read more

Cool place to grab a drink, hang out and have delicious bites. The Truffle Sriracha Wings were addicting. That sauce should be bottled and sold. Octopus was tender. The burger was delicious.

Came to Thorn on a Saturday night at 8pm with 3 friends. We didn't have to wait but it was pretty full with a great vibe and an awesome DJ playing jams all night. There was a good crowd in the back dancing too. The cocktails were awesome and service was even better. I ate their smash burger and it was really delicious. I would order it again. They also validate your parking for free for 3 hours and they have nice indoor and outdoor seating. Highly recommend this place. read more

Love the place!! Great ambiance to relax! Good food too!! Definitely would return !! Drinks are good some need to be a bit stronger- prices like everywhere else on the high side!! read more

Service and food were good. Good luck with the parking. It's almost impossible. They should help with that somehow.

First off, parking seemed to be a bit complicated but you can get 3 hours validated parking for some lot. I suggest if you're in a group, you have someone hop off and ask where that parking lot is before you park, if you'd like to save a few bucks. Was not immediately greeted or escorted to any particular seating area. Walked to the outside seating patios and waited a few minutes before someone eventually showed up with water. Service was friendly and somewhat quick for a Friday night. Had a couple drinks, at a fairly reasonable price, but best of the group was for sure the "The Call Her Lola" & my personal recommendation. Cute hang out spot, would go back again. read more

Love love love this spot! Ambiance: Great loungey vibe, whether for date night, girls night or happy hour, I recommend. Cocktails: The cocktails are awesome , my absolute favorite is Tres Delinquentes! *chefs kiss* Food: Keep in mind, they are a lounge/bar concept; however, they do have a small menu of great options, I haven't tried much but so far - Cauliflower Tahini is BOMB and I'm not a huge oyster fan but LOVE their oysters. Service: the staff has always been friendly and welcoming! Dessert: if you haven't tried Cry Baby Creamery yet RUN THERE RIGHT NOW - great, unique flavors, even for non-dairy eaters. Their cookies are actually heavenly. Overall I love this spot and would recommend! Also, their happy hour is amazing! Excited to have the thorn as an option in the Bird Road neighborhood. read more

Alan welcomed us in, early Sunday lunch - ended up brunch! Can't recommend enough, made us feel like we've been coming here for years. Walked us through the entire menu. Need to definitely come back for happy hour. In typical Miami fashion happy hour (s) is Monday through Friday 3 to 7. The feel is welcoming with a live DJ , modern retro industrial, if that is a thing. Bloody Mary s were very tasty. Ate the meatballs before the picture oops. Very flavorful and light. read more

I went here for happy hour with co workers on St. Patty's and had a great time. The Doug's old fashioned was my go to drink and it was delicious. Strong and smelled like banana bread - YUM! We ordered a few plates the share - bulgogi fries (meat was tender and the seasoning paired perfectly with the freshly fried potatoes) and hummus (it wasn't too bad, fresh and a great veggie option). A few friends ordered the hot honey truffle wings and they said they were really good. Our waiter was a total sweetheart, so service wasn't too bad for a holiday. Ended our night at Cry Baby for a scoop of ooey gooey - perfect combo of savory and sweet in an ice cream. Cry baby has perfected that to a science. I would totally come again for another Happy Hour or dinner date night. read more

This little gem packs a big punch! If you're looking for some Miami bar scene on bird road you've found your spot! Let's start with the food: The bulgogi fries are an absolute must! The sauce and meat on these fries is so good I could eat the whole bowl by myself! Next we had the wagyu meatballs and unfortunately the phone did not eat first because those babies were so good they flew off the table!! Pizza is always good and they have a good variety for everyone's preference! Next up we have the drink: all the cocktails are also super good and fairly priced for miami standards. My favorite is the sunset dream but with guava instead of pineapple (apparently this was an original recipe that got changed, but the pineapple one is still really good!) In terms of beer they have so many options for everyone's preferences! The wait staff is chill and friendly so makes it a nice little night out. The place is small but always packed! Even on a Monday they have a pretty good crowd! Good thing is they do validate parking for up to 3hours, who doesn't love free parking! Best part of it all, cry baby cookies to go!! read more

We came for lunch on a Wednesday. This place has always been packed when we try to come at night. There is paid parking but the bar will validate your parking just make sure to ask when you arrive. I had "They Call Her Lola" cocktail and it did not disappoint. I'm not usually a fan of sweeter drinks but this was light and subtle. Really enjoyed it! For food we ordered the Thorn Burger, Natty Jack Burger, and the waygu meatballs. Everything was seasoned well-- the fries were fresh and crispy. We like the meatballs the best. For dessert we shared the bread pudding from their in house partner Cry Baby. Music and staff were great as well. We opted to sit at the bar and the bartender Fiona was very sweet and friendly. Would recommend Thorn hand down. My biggest tip is to come during lunch/early happy hour to get the best experience. This place is popular! We had been trying to go for months but it is really packed at night and happy hour (which is a great sign). read more

Such a cute place and concept! I can't wait to see where this place goes! Me and some girlfriends decided to share the caesar salad and fries with the Lola cocktail. Jolene is the best bartender and we come here just for her! Cute date spot for sure. And we love the back area with the fire pit and cornhole. Great places to have a drink and mingle over shared food. Kind of tucked into an apartment complex. They validate parking for 2 hours. read more
