Wetlab

★ 4.4 / 5 (164 reviews)

Nestled on the waterfront, this charming bar offers stunning views and a relaxed atmosphere, perfect for unwinding with friends. While the drink selection is decent and affordable, patrons suggest avoiding the food, describing it as mediocre at best. The highlight remains the lovely beach area and the occasional live music from nostalgic cover bands, creating an inviting ambiance. Although the bar is popular among University of Miami students, its appealing setting makes it a go-to spot for anyone looking to enjoy a drink while soaking in the sunset. Just remember to come for the drinks, not the dining.

Was Anonym at Wetlab a mag?
My new favorite bar in Miami! It's managed by graduate students from the University of Miami but welcomes everyone. The drinks are reasonably priced, and the views are stunning. The bar offers both indoor and outdoor seating, providing plenty of space to enjoy. View all feedback.

What Anonym dislikes about Wetlab:
Great spot to grab a drink, but I’d suggest eating elsewhere. I really enjoyed being by the water—it creates a refreshing atmosphere, especially on a hot Miami day. Finding an outdoor area where you won’t sweat is rare here. That said, we stopped by after work feeling hungry, and I didn’t enjoy the food at all. The Green Goddess was unappetizing to me, and the nachos were just one big clump that was tough to share. T... View all feedback.

Little hidden spot with great views, nice staff, good beer selection at reasonable price.

Wetlab and Salt are the perfect partnership. The vegan crab cake...yum! As a DC local, does it taste like lump blue crab cake? Heck to the no! It 's made out of artichoke for crying out loud!? Is it tasty as an artichoke sandwich with fries? Heck yeah! Do yourself a favor a share a few pitchers with friends and newly made friends from Salt while you enjoy the tasty tots and titillating conversation at Univ of Miami. I love how passionate conservationists can be and in the Uni environment, it feels like we are having vegan shwarma with the submariner Avengers. Just go for your dive trips @Divers Paradise in Key Biscayne and then plan to hang with the crew at Wetlabs and Salt.

Wetlab was Miami's best kept secret for waterfront happy hour, but now the secret's out. By the way, skip the fish and chips—they taste more like grocery store fish sticks. I recommend going for the nachos and fish tacos instead.
