First time here last night and had a blasts. Alondra was so nice and helpful. She even suggested us to try a new drink called Casa Azul Tequila Soda in watermelon which tasted amazing. Everyone was super friendly and engaging with the customers. Such a nice vibe and a great place to meet up with your friends and have a good night out.
The drinks were good and not watered down. Great service and great atmosphere. Bar tenders and the woman working the door are smoking hot. The big man at the door was super cool, he even took time out to give me and my son a little bit of history on himself and the area. Will be back this summer
These people are so mean?. I stop by booze garden after work because I work at a near by restaurant that is right up the street. On this specific night, it's spring break, and they are busier than usual. After being at the bar for about 15 minutes, a bartender ask me what did I want? I told him. He proceeds to drink a shot of patron. He then pours approximately several dots of tequila in my cup (he's obviously drunk and doesn't even realize the pourer is clogged with who knows what) then fills my cup with j
This place doesn't serve food but it does serve atmosphere and vibes galore. This is always my closeout spot before I go to the after hours to play pool a little bit north of downtown Fort Lauderdale. It's got a great culture to it and it's great for meeting people, the girls will actually talk and dance. The drinks on expensive. But it's not a dive bar per se but more of a watering hole. Dive bars are beneath booze garden
Absolutely awful staff and awful experience. My best friend got kicked out of this bar for the first and only time all vacation forcefully because the bouncer said ?you think you can make funny faces at me?. My friend didn't even know what he was talking about , but got shoved out hard like he did something awful. He proceeds to complain ON THE SIDEWALK - WELL OUTSIDE OF THE ESTABLISHMENT and because he complained and asked simply why he got kicked out he gets maced in the eyes. Totally unacceptable and unp
Kyle is a god amongst men? a Zeus in his own circle.. He can strike lightning down on the groups and groups of gorgeous women and make them love the party he brings. There is no party like a Booze party!??
Always a fun place. Staff is wonderful, first. Come per serve. Everyone should check it out so.Entertaining
Last night, I stopped by after work and was waiting by the bar while my friend was in the bathroom. I had my elbows propped up on the bartop while I waited, I wasnt bothering anyone or in anyones way when the bartender, i think the bouncer might have said her name was luciana or someting, smacked my arm and told me not to put my elbows up. Its fine if thats your policy but absolutely verbalize it versus physically assulting me to let me know. When i expressed my discomfort she had me escorted out as if Im s
My friend owns this place so I'M SURE this IS the PLACE to BE. ?? I'll get there soon to "pop-in" for a visit. ?? Haaa!!... DTM DanTheMan I miss "grilled ?? cheese ?? tomato ?? basil dip" from place he used to DJ at 8 years ago in January... wow... 8 years ... (hint)...haa!!
Literally love this place it's such a vibe and we have an amazing time every time we go! Service is great. Ritchie is my favorite!
I was DD and ordered a soda with lime. They charged me $3 for a soda out of the gun and a small lime. Pretty fun bar otherwise.
Very casual atmosphere. Friendly staff. Few video games, including 2 basketball machines where you can compete with others. Music format is 8ps, 90s and 2000s rock and top 40. The food cart out front has delicious food too!!
Alex one of the owners is absolutely amazing! He is always so inviting and treats you as though you are in his home. If you are looking for a fun night out, this is the place to be! The food, drinks, music, games, popcorn and staff make it an A+ in my book! If you haven't been yet, what are you wanting for?
The millennium place!! Games, drinks and the bartenders a super talented. Alex the owner shakes everyone's hand with a smile. A MUST VISIT when your in town!
I dont understand why the staff and security is so rude and aggressive here. Im ITB and never treat my patrons like this. Security threw me and my friends out for NO REASON i simply asked a question about my bill (which was wrong) i was not drunk or hostile nothing, and the dude said the bill is right u dont like it u can leave and then just throws me out? Your staff also charges the drinks differently and you all need to be on the same page, i dont know why this establishment is so hostile to the patrons
Bills Mafia Backer bar...DJ plays relevant top hits during commercial breaks making it high energy fun!
Music was good, crowd was on the younger side but overall fun.
Very Small, much different than online pics. Have no idea how they fit people in there. Kinda ghetto. No tap/draft beer (odd for a Booze Garden). They allow old ladies in the bathroom as attendents who litterally beg for tips with a ton of products. Just ghetto. Sketch area too. Not a fan.
This place is very cute. I love how small it is, and luckily, every time I've been there it hasn't been over-packed. Super cute vibes, super cute people. Definitely will be back, hopefully it wont be overcrowded..
One of the best at places to hangout in Downtown Fort Lauderdale! From the food to the music. You can't go wrong with this place!
Booze Garden offers a unique twist on the classic arcade experience, providing an adult-oriented hangout that caters to enthusiasts seeking a boardwalk arcade type of feel. While undeniably cool, the atmosphere tends to lean toward a more masculine, boys' club vibe. The allure of Booze Garden lies in its collection of arcade games, offering an extensive selection of classic and modern gaming options that resonate with the inner child in every visitor. The array of games creates an entertaining environment
Favorite place in FT Lauderdale! Only bar we go to and burgers are amazing.
Richie Rockstar knows how to show you a good time! Awesome old school game that are free!! And out front you got Pete Wheelz with Boozy Bites!
We were enjoying our time and a horrible security man kicked us out for no reseon cause a random guy told him we were ?harassing? him. The thing is this guy was being rude with us and we told him to leave us? ITS NOT SAFE FOR GIRLS RUN AWAY FROM THIS PLACE !!!
This was my to go spot for years when I lived in Ft.Lauderdale. I moved north a few years ago but I was fortunate to stop by when I was down for a wedding this past weekend. They've added more games since my last visit and a larger beer selection. I miss this place. I wish they had one similar back home.
Imagine having a good time with friends, ordering drinks, tipping appropriately and watching football. Sounds like fun, right. Well, it was until the wife of a guy who got to the bar and took a seat my friend was saving for me... that's not really the bad part as I understand. What is totally unacceptable was when his wife arrived at about half-time and said I would need to move because there wasn't room in the corner where I had been sitting/standing for the entire game. She said the bartender's girlfriend
I go there regularly now, it's a chill place, good music, cool bartenders, drinks are decent and cheap too. A place to pregame , there are some arcade style games in there, you can always compete with your friends while you are there or impress your girlfriend lol. Major plus, they have several exits.
The staff is suspicious, I get asked if I lost my phone and then all of a sudden they don't have it. Not only that I get yelled out to get out just for standing by the bar looking for my phone. Some big fat white guy and we're literally explaining that I lost my phone. I get kicked out for "sleeping at the bar". What???
This is one of my favorite spots in Downtown Fort Lauderdale. Unlike other clubs on the strip, it is definitely an older crowd, (keep in mind I'm in my early 20's), and they have fun games inside that are free to play while you drink and hang with friends. Also, Jay at the front is one of my favorite people as he remembers my friends and I every time we stop by! Always a great time :)
Very cool place with good vibes. They have one of the best craft beer selections and some rarities that I have ever seen anywhere. Prices are average for the area and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable.
If I could add zero stars I would. The staff is completely unprofessional. The white fat bouncer that worked 7/29 is completely unprofessional. He disrespected me as I was at the back bar and told me I could not stand at the bar when I just finished ordering a drink and it was completely busy to the point I could not move. He had threatened to call the cops on me while I was trying to order a drink. I then walked out and try to renter and he refused to let me in ( like he had something to prove) and then co
They don't know how to make a Long Island smh
The service and atmosphere were electric! Great service and friendly patrons. Highly recommend. If if you're in the area, definitely stop by for a drink or 4. I'll be trying the captain morgan cannonball on my next visit.
Probably one of the best clubs i like choosing to go when im down town and the main reason being the burger stand right outside. I never come to booze garden without getting a columbian burger to end or start me night. Great place to chill though on weekends is extremely packed. Basketball and arcade games are free to play just recently realized the arcade games work. if you get a chance don't hesitate to try the burger stand 100/10
Amazing place! Always fun and bartenders are great! And u need to try that burger they have outside! U wont regret it!
Great place to have a good time. Shoot some hoops, take some shots. No food and it gets busier as it gets later. Follow me on insta - @keenan2020_
Booze is a good time regardless of what day, time, or event. Booze Garden is home to some of the best bartenders, owners, DJs and party-goers. There's a reason i?m there almost every weekend! If you're in town and looking for a guaranteed good time, look no further. Hope to see you there! Follow their instagram for all event updates!!!
What a miserable experience. Felt like I was disturbing the server from her phone to get a drink when it was empty. Opened the cans of beers, put them on the bar, no smiles, here's your receipt now give me 20% tip so I can go back to my phone. Shocking
Awful establishment. Im all for bouncers removing unruly patrons, but the ones here take it to another level. The staff is aggressive and rude. One of the security guys working the night I was there was extremely hostile and forcibly removed a man for bumping into him by accident. Its an extremely crowded bar and they have awful crowd control. The bouncers here look for a fight. No working phone number, no one to complain to, and its also just a gross establishment. Would not recommend.
Bouncers and staff are extremely unprofessional and rude. At the entrance the bouncer threw my ID on the floor because he didn't want to let me in even though I'm over 21, ok cool don't wanna let me in, whatever, just give us the ID?s back and that's it. But this guy took it a step further and threw both my ID and my girls on the ground making us have the most embarrassing moment ever in front of everyone even though we hadn't done anything wrong.
A great place to take all of you're friends and family too after a long day at work. Even on the weekends when you're not working just to have a bunch of good old-fashioned fun. The bartenders there make you feel welcome as if you've been coming there for years. I also really love the decorations and atmosphere of entire place. I will definitely be back again.
the bartenders here are great people. they are always putting on a show and serving with a smile! the owners are always present making sure guests are happy and socializing with people. great establishment and great atmosphere to hang out on a night with friends
To be completely honest, Booze Garden was the highlight of our spring break. All the other clubs nearby are fun, but this place is the best. There's no cover, the bouncers and bartenders are super polite and it's never too crowded where you can't move like everywhere else. We kept going back here every night after the other bars. New favorite spot.
This bar has everything you're looking for in Fort Lauderdale. Games, TV?s, Good drinks, music and high vibes. Love coming here for drinks and games with friends. Looking forward to watching Sunday football here this season. #FinsUp
Booze Garden is always a great time. I always appreciate the staff and their professionalism. They make it feel like each patron is important to them. Keep up the great work.
One of the best bars in the downtown area run by a local who knows the nightlife scene through and through. I've spent several special occasions here, including a 10 year relationship anniversary, and it's always a blast and major fun
Never a cover charge at the door, great mix of music, amazing staff, you can smoke inside & they have a couple arcade machines . Definitely worth it for anyone trying to enjoy something different and cozy. I come every weekend to meet new friends, it never fails.
Walked out to smoke with a drink that I purchased in the bar. When I went back in the security person said his name is Billy Joe Bob, told me that I couldn't bring in the beverage that I bought there. When I tried to explain that I purchased my beverage there he said that I was barred for having an attitude.
Booze is the best place for a night out. Good vibes and even better service! Also boozy bites outside of booze is honestly the best food ever! Try it out
Well as soon as I walked in two girls grabbed me, I danced they bought me a drink, we played hoops at the basketball game. What's not to be happy about. I totally loved the place. It was my first time there. Oh, did I mention a third blonde beauty then joined us. How much more awesome can it get.
My wife and I absolutely love coming to booze garden! We walked in randomly and now it's our regular. House shots are always unique and taste great. Best place and vibe makes us feel like we are back in high school. Looking forward to many more fun nights!
Seating is limited and drink priced were high given the quality of the bartenders. Interesting ambience with a few arcade type games and an AstroTurf floor. It's pretty decent as a hole-in-the-wall hipster type bar, but I probably won't go back given all of the options in the area.
Went with a group of women who felt unsafe and uncomfortable for our entire outing. Had multiple phones and wallets stolen from our purses while at the bar. When we informed the bouncer and asked to go back into the bar to look, he would not allow us as the woman whose wallet was stolen had no ID (it was in her stolen wallet). We were later informed by security in the area that 32 phones have been stolen from this bar in the month of May and that it isn't a safe location.
Whoever the the two guys serving food in front of Booze Garden on Saturday night 2/20/2021 was insanely unprofessional and rude when I was asking them when I could put a food order in. The one guy wouldn't tell me when they would be serving food again and was being extremely rude about it. This was at around 10pm and I came back 20 minutes later to ask if they knew now and he said no rudely and then the other guy working was slapping together the tongs they use for the food right in my face aggressively. T
My son used his card to have a tab open which he closed at 1:00 am- the bartender kept the card while the tab was open. At 3:18 someone used a duplicate card (He had his card with him) to buy hotel rooms and buy alcohol. Someone there is a thief. I tried calling and they do not have a working phone number and when I went to their website my Norton Lock said the site was not safe. Don't go there.
Great late night spot in downtown Fort Lauderdale open til 4am 7 days a week.
Cool atmosphere, patrons were friendly but the drinks were double the price with double the weakness, other bars close by pour better drinks for half the price. Sorry drink somewhere else if you dont want to pay $50 for 4 drinks, this is not South Beach & you cant have the name booze either if you pour weak drinks.
Great place will old rock music! Gets crowded later in the night so get there early. Few arcade games inside. Smoking is allowed inside which might plus/minus based on your preference. Food truck outside.
Booze Garden is such an amazing and unique place! It is just a fun and happy place to be! Great bartenders, music, games, and playful atmosphere!
By FAR the BEST spot downtown. Super chill. Great music. Good vibes. Free games! One of the best concepts!! Can't wait to go back soon. ????
Place is awesome all around. You can tell the owners take pride in their place. This will be my new spot for awhile.
You guys are going to need to get rid of that Jay Cuban door guy. I used to go there like a million times to play the basketball hoops practicing my steph curry shot up until you hired him. Ever since that Jay door guy has worked there he has not let me in for unknown psychological reasons. I told the neighboring drinking establishments that story an they said that's weird cuz u don't even do anything wrong and said well u can drink beer here. Door guys are a dime a dozen. This isn't rocket science, get rid
Richie Rockstar is the best! Great vibe and cool crowd. Nice lounge with a "local neighborhood bar" type of feel. Would definitely recommend going there!
Lost my phone in this bar and returned a couple days later to claim it, but after a lazy search by a particularly ugly bartender, I was told they didn't have it. However, it popped up at this same bar a week later on Find My iPhone - what a surprise. Either they are incompetent, or it would seem that this bar targets drunk people and the staff steals their phones. Don't let the good ratings fool you. Will be reporting the stolen phone to the police.
Booze garden is the only consistent thing in my life. Thank u to this establishment for always being there for me
Honestly I expected more. When I asked the bartender for Cigar City Jai Alai he said they don't carry it (our #1 choice for beer). He said that Miller Lite was the best best beer in his opinion. Seriously??? He knows NOTHING about beer. We won't be back. Only reason for 2 stars is the arcade games.
This place rocks with a lot of people or a few, either way, all of my friends and I had a great time for one of our birthdays, and the security guy (baby face) helped make the night a lil more fun and safe ????
What a great place to have a good time! The games are so much fun and the staff are so helpful!! There is a huge selection of drinks and such a great vibe!! I will be back!!
This is a cool new beergarden near Las Olas. We went on a late Saturday night and it was quite packed but still enough space to enjoy our time there. They have various games to play to keep occupied and serve an extensive variety of local and nonlocal beers. Service was very friendly. They also serve popcorn which was a fun future. I would return and recommend to others.
I love this place! Definitely always having a good time when I'm there with my friends! They have a nice area and it doesn't get super crowded!
came on monday, kyle and juan were great ????
Great atmosphere! Recommend checking out this place if you love local spots. Great drinks and great people tell them I sent you!
The bar is indeed fun to out hang out. My friend's wallet was stolen from him because the bar gets too crowded. Owner responded well and provided information in case the wallet gets found.
The bouncers at this bar are amazingg!! Love them best people ever 10/10 recommend
Booze Garden is a great addition to the Downtown Fort Lauderdale bar scene. A chill, turf grass, indoor bar with free arcade style games. Drink selection is good and popcorn is also served free of charge.
Blonde lazy bartender! we have to beg her to order for drinks. Very lame place. This bartender ruined. Probably they are not even trained for costumer service
This place is great for a bar crawl. The drinks are great as well as the atmosphere. They have pinball machines, basketball, and giant jinga you can play for free.
Awesome place. Friendly staff, always packed with good energy. And best of all, it's the official Buffalo Bills Backers bar!
I absolutely love this place it was fun, the games were free, the liquor was cheap and good, I love the music and there's a hot dog man outside that makes really good hot dogs especially when you are leaving the bar wasted it's really good hangover food lol
Richie is my man. Me and my girl went out and he took care of us. Definitely an awesome experience he made me and my girls night! Thanks Richie!!!
I'm not really sure where this review is going to get me in life but I'll write it anyways. M&M's melt in your mouth not in your hands. Beer fills you up, and Tequila make you quiver.
Such a fun place! Great atmosphere and selection of drinks! One of my favorite bars in town.
Enjoyed the night there. I still prefer the wynwood location because they add more Latin music. However. It was fun.
For a Sunday night this place was so much fun! Nice seats in the back for a party. Games and photo booth was entertaining
The bartenders were friendly. Service was good. The atmosphere was fun. Definitely for a younger crowd.
Booze is the go-to always. Vibes are awesome and service is quick. Always make it it a point a stop in.
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
