When it's that special time of day called Happy Hour, you can find me mixing it up at The River Oyster Bar in Downtown Miami/Brickell. My favorite thing about it, besides our handcrafted cocktails and great selection of beer on tap, are the 1/2 off oysters. We offer a selection of oysters from across the US. Everything including Kumamotos from Northern California (my fave) to Blue Points and Newport Cup from the East Coast. You can enjoy great bar snacks (most under $7) like Oyster Po Boys, Buffalo Frog Legs and Curried Duck Empanadas. If you want to enjoy Happy Hour to its fullest, you have to partake in bar snacking!
The friendly and knowledgeable bartenders can mix you up your favorite libation or you can try one of our signature drinks. We use homemade Ginger Beer for the Dark & Stormy, fresh squeezed grapefruit juice in the classic Greyhounds, fresh fruit purees in our Watermelon, Lychee or Passion Fruit Martinis, or you can enjoy my cocktail of choice the Partida Margarita made with 100% organic agave nectar and fresh lime juice. If you're a wine lover, nothing beats a glass of Muscadet with your oysters.
This bar is always hopping with a mix of locals and business folks unwinding after a long day. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. So next time you and your friends are in search of a great bar to visit in Miami, take a trip down to The River. Hope to see you soon. - Marita, The River Oyster Bar
