Top Bars To Celebrate Your Birthday In South Florida

Venues to celebrate adult birthdays are harder to find than those for kids. Entertainment becomes more engaging than a Winnie the Pooh costume showing up or a petting zoo. However, Miami is the appropriate canvas to organize a party with the most variegated themes in mind. We have compiled a list of the best places with every particular taste in mind.

Located in the former Washington Federal Bank building, Chalk is nothing short of a modern billiards and ping pong lounge. If you are up for a fun birthday celebration, there are five billiard tables and seven Tennis Table internationally approved ping pong tables: serious business for the kid in you. For a more private party, just reserve the VAULT, the private VIP area where you can hang with only your closest pals.

Serendipity 3

1102 Lincoln Road
Miami Beach, FL 33139
(305) 403-2210The romantic movie "Serendipity" comes to mind. Opened a year ago in Miami Beach, it is a coffee shop meets ice cream central with outrageous desserts and cakes meant to be shared. Make a reservation for a surreally sweet birthday celebration (and a feast for all the taste buds). Get ready to be celebrated with a happy birthday serenade coming to you with the entire staff cheering. And entirely fit for a birthday, order the Cake Serendipitini, a cake-flavored vodka and creme shake topped with cubes of cake.

George's
1549 Sunset Drive
Miami, FL 33146

The mix of the brick walls and Buddha statues make it a restaurant with a zen atmosphere. Purple accents and dimmed light are the background of a trendy lounge experience. There's a private a room that can accommodate up to 25 people and can be reserved at no extra charge. But if it's an impromptu celebration (or better a surprise one), you will always be welcomed with the complimentary prosecco or vin rose and the cake will come with a sparkly candle.
