Looking for love in all the wrong places Not anymore

DOM'SYou know the drill, you meet your happily coupled friends and they’re ready to call it a night as soon as you’re finished with dinner, but you’ve got a totally different game plan. You know in your gut that if you can get them to accompany you for just one more drink, you’ll be able to find someone to keep you company for the rest of the night (or rest of cuffing season). In the 305, there’s always singles on the prowl—no swiping involved—the trick is knowing where to find them.

Once you step through, you’ll find yourself in a sexy lounge where a large Love Me, F*ck Me neon sign sets the tone and live music or DJs take care of the rest. All you’ve got to bring are your moves.

Happy hour is ideal for singles on the prowl, as it’s a go-to watering hole for Brickell’s nine-to-fivers in desperate need of a post-work tipple (maybe even a tripple). How to book: Stop by for first come, first served seating.
Sweet Liberty Drinks & Supply Co.
Sweet Liberty Drink & Supply Co
Miami Beach$$$$It’s hard to miss this multi-award-winning Miami Beach cocktail giant’s purple neon sign proclaiming “Pursue Happiness”—but happiness isn’t the only thing folks here are pursuing. The bar is open every day until 5 am, allowing for loads of time to mingle and talk.

It’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself taking advantage of the killer happy hour specials by way of $1 oysters (who doesn’t love a cheap aphrodisiac) and $5 cocktails. And before you know it, the sun is coming up and you’re on the beach across the street rolling in the sand. We may or may not be speaking from experience. How to book: Reserve via SevenRooms.

The popular late night den sports a menu full of easy-to-drink cocktails like the Pornstar Martini, topped with just enough bubbles to get the job done. If you’re starting to overthink your choices, simply look over at the large mural by the door and remember, ”No Regerts”—because sometimes, mama’s just tryin’ to get laid. How to book: Stop by for first come, first served seating.

The Corner The Corner
The Corner
Downtown$$$$A bar open until 8 am right across the street from Miami’s premier ultra-club E11even (read: burlesque shows and more) sounds like the right place to find a late night pal to potentially make great memories with. At The Corner, singles will find a mix of night owls, industry pros looking for something fun after hours, and some of Miami’s most unique characters. So, order yourself a little liquid courage and strike up that conversation. How to book: Stop by for first come, first served seating.
