Central Michigan Chippewas at Miami Hurricanes
No cover Walk-ins welcome No dress code

Miami Hurricanes football is the oldest sports institution in South Florida, a program whose identity was built on speed, swagger, and the Hurricane Warning era that turned the U into a national brand long before the ACC existed in its current form. Grails Miami runs the Wynwood watch party for everyone who is not making the drive north to Miami Gardens on a Saturday night.

\n\n

This is a non-conference Saturday, the ACC hosting the MAC, Hard Rock Stadium against a program out of Mount Pleasant, Michigan. Central Michigan comes from a league known for cold-weather Midwestern stadiums, weeknight football, and September road trips into Power Four buildings. Miami sits inside an ACC whose Florida footprint has shaped the conference’s recruiting map for decades, with Dade and Broward high school football feeding the roster pipeline structurally, year after year. A night kickoff in Miami Gardens also brings the humidity that tends to show up in the fourth quarter.

What makes Grails different

Sneaker-themed bar interior at Grails Miami 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.

Just came to visit from a long flight from California and was instantly greeted by a guy named Frank. He told me he was also from Cali and moved here and made me feel right at home. I didn’t plan on staying long, but he made me feel some amazing drinks so I ended up staying a little longer and drinking a little more. You guys really have a star on your hands!! Thank you for such a great 1st time experience. I’ll be back again when I come back with my sells team!!
