NASCAR Cup at Darlington
No cover Walk-ins welcome No dress code

The Southern 500 at Darlington is the crown jewel of Labor Day weekend and the official kickoff to the 10-race NASCAR Cup Playoffs. The Track Too Tough to Tame is a 1.366-mile egg-shaped oval where the right-side door gets the Darlington Stripe by lap 50 and tire fall-off shapes every strategy call. Sixteen playoff drivers, four spots eliminated after Bristol, and the first cutline conversation starts here.

Watch the abrasive surface chew through the right-side tires across the opening stage and the long-run pace separate the Hendrick, Joe Gibbs, and Penske cars from the rest by Stage 2. Kyle Larson, William Byron, and Denny Hamlin all have Darlington trophies on the shelf, and Chase Elliott runs this place like a born short-tracker. Pit road timing on green-flag cycles decides the final stage, and the manufacturer fight between Chevy, Toyota, and Ford carries real points weight with the playoff math already live.

What makes Grails different

Sneaker-themed bar interior at Grails Wynwood with rare sneakers on display

The World’s First Sneaker-Themed Restaurant & Bar

Hand-restored, well-known sneaker grails line our walls, collected from collaborations and drops throughout the last two decades. Our indoor lounge feels less like a sports bar and more like a sneakerhead’s dream living room, with red booths, ambient lighting, and a custom sneaker bar centerpiece.

Whether you’re a hypebeast, a casual collector, or just here for the wings, the indoor lounge is a vibe, and unlike any other sports bar in Miami.

The Covered “Miami Vice” Patio & The Yard

Spacious. Vibrant. Pure Miami. The covered Miami Vice patio seats up to 120 across multiple table configurations and has its own patio bar, with TVs angled for visibility from every seat. The Yard sits adjacent under a giant tent with a projector screen for the major game. Hookah service runs all evening on the patio.

The color palette pulls straight from Miami Vice: pinks, teals, neon accents. The patio walls flow with rotating mural work that fits Wynwood’s art-district vibe.

The Famous “Sneaker Cocktail”

Yes, you really do drink it from a Jordan-inspired sneaker. The Grails sneaker cocktail is our most-photographed creation, equal parts conversation piece and craft cocktail. It’s been featured in local press, racked up millions of Instagram impressions, and is now a Wynwood rite of passage.

Pair it with shareable dishes from the full menu or post up at the bar with a flight of hyper-local beer. There’s no other drink experience like it in Miami.

Not Your “Typical” Sports Bar

Award-winning craft cocktails. Hand-crafted shareable dishes. A bartender who actually remembers your name. Hyper-local beer on tap. 75+ TVs, two full bars, and three distinct seating areas, including a Wynwood-art-district patio. Group tables for 4 to 40+. Hookah on the patio. DJ-curated music.

This isn’t beer-and-wings-on-a-flat-screen. This is the Grails Experience. It’s why we’re consistently rated Miami’s #1 sports bar.

Best vibe in Wynwood. Showed up for a UFC fight and stayed for the food and the music. Sound on for the main card. Service was attentive even when packed.

Came for the World Cup, came back the next weekend for brunch. The patio is the move on Saturdays. Sunny, full of people watching their team, and the cocktails actually deliver.
