Folks in Miami Lakes have their own newly opened speakeasy by the team behind Chela’s. A Catalan-style social club that serves martinis and tapas, Santa Diabla is a reservation-only spot open until 3 a.m., located within the same space as Chela’s. Still, one step inside and guests are engulfed in a completely different vibe. Dark, moody, and sexy, this is where the cocktails flow, and it’s easy to lose track of time.

Godzilla in cocktail form? That’s what’s on the menu at Bar Kaiju — along with nearly a dozen other mystical monsters found around the world. Head to the second floor of the Citadel in Little River and follow the monster stickers on the ground to a semi-hidden red-lit bar by Derek Stilmann. The cocktail menu is designed in graphic novel form, with a page dedicated to each cocktail and the creature that inspired it.

Not quite a bar, but definitely worth a mention, Kojin is a sake lounge hidden behind Little River’s ramen hotspot, Hachidori, past a heavy curtain and into a cozy space meant for sake sipping or dining via a “secret” omakase experience. This speakeasy is intimate and small, featuring a counter and a couple of couches able to fit about 14 people at a time, making it feel like a super exclusive experience.

Grab some tacos at Coyo Taco’s Wynwood location and then head through the “Employees Only” door to discover a mezcal-fueled secret bar where one could find Major Lazer or Steven Marley on the DJ decks on any given night. There’s no cover and plenty of tacos to help soak up the alcohol that isn’t danced off in the wee hours of the night.

Slip through the dining room and up the often-overlooked staircase of Katsuya South Beach and find a semi-private nook on the restaurant’s second floor. Dragon Lounge is perfect for guests looking for an intimate experience while still experiencing one of Miami’s buzziest restaurants. This hidden bar, covered in floor-to-ceiling, Japanese-inspired murals, offers a daily social hour from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. featuring select sushi rolls, starters, wine, and cocktails, all under $10.

A speakeasy with live jazz in Miami’s club district? Yup, that’s Floyd. Tucked underneath Club Space, this space is decorated like a Victorian mansion serving Prohibition-era cocktails. On any given night, guests can enjoy DJs, jazz music, and poetry readings, all in a luxe atmosphere steps away from some of Miami’s hottest clubs.

Enter South Beach’s Stiles Hotel and make a few twists and turns to find Swizzle Rum Bar & Drinkery. This intimate and sophisticated speakeasy has a versatile cocktail list with a large focus on classic and contemporary cocktails, spirit-forward cocktails, tropical drinks, and more than 150 different rums on hand.

Make your way through El Santo and past the pay phone into a dimly lit red bar with naughty neon signs and plenty of tequila. This secret bar gives off major club vibes and is perfect for those looking to dance the night away while the DJ plays Top 40 and Reggaeton. Open Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday until 3 a.m.
