Tucked behind a seemingly ordinary red phone booth in the heart of Brickell, Red Phone Booth Brickell offers a nightlife experience that feels like stepping into another era. This hidden speakeasy combines Prohibition-era charm with expertly crafted cocktails, elevated bites, liveable lounge spaces, and an atmosphere designed for lingering.
Located at 1010 Brickell Avenue, Red Phone Booth has become one of Miami’s best-kept secrets for those looking for something beyond the typical rooftop bar or nightclub. From its secret entrance and vintage-inspired design to its extensive cocktail menu and cigar-friendly atmosphere, this Brickell speakeasy delivers an experience that is equal parts sophisticated and fun.
Finding Red Phone Booth is part of the experience. Guests enter through a classic red British-style phone booth located outside the venue. Once inside, a rotary phone provides the next step: guests need an access code to unlock the hidden door.
For members of the public, a temporary code can be requested directly from Red Phone Booth, while access can also come through word of mouth — a fitting nod to the secretive nature of the original speakeasies of the 1920s.
Once the door opens, guests enter a warm, intimate space that feels worlds away from the busy streets of Brickell.
The cocktails are a major part of what makes Red Phone Booth Brickell stand out. The bar's menu is presented in an illustrated cocktail book, with drinks organized by spirit and accompanied by information about their history and origins.
The menu features an extensive selection of gin, bourbon, whiskey, Scotch, tequila, mezcal, rum, pisco, cachaca, absinthe, brandy, and cognac cocktails.
Some of the standout cocktails include:
One of the most appealing parts of the experience is the bartenders' knowledge. Guests can choose from the extensive menu or tell the bartender what flavors and spirits they enjoy and let them create something specifically for their palate.
While cocktails may be the star, Red Phone Booth also has a scratch kitchen serving food designed to complement the drinks.
The pizza selection is particularly popular, with pizzas made using imported Italian flour, Italian cheeses, and house-made San Marzano tomato sauce. Options include Mushroom & Truffle, Spicy Sicilian, and Bistecca, topped with marinated beef tenderloin, mozzarella, gorgonzola, arugula, garlic oil, and balsamic drizzle.
Other menu options include:
Whether you're stopping in for cocktails and a small bite or gathering with friends for a full spread, the food makes it easy to turn a quick drink into an entire evening.
The interior is just as memorable as the entrance. Red Phone Booth Brickell embraces the atmosphere of a classic 1920s speakeasy, with rich mahogany, leather seating, exposed brick, wood floors, textured rugs, Tiffany-style wall sconces, vintage artwork, and warm amber lighting.
Multiple rooms give the space different personalities, from the main bar and lounge to the Humidor Lounge, Gallery, Alcove, and upstairs billiards area.
The members-only Mafia Room features a private bar, billiards table, poker table, and multiple televisions, making it particularly well suited for private events and celebrations.
Part of the experience at Red Phone Booth is dressing for the occasion. The venue maintains a sophisticated dress code, with a style that fits the classic atmosphere of the space.
Think polished and elevated rather than casual beachwear. Leave the shorts and flip-flops behind and embrace the opportunity to dress up for a night of cocktails, conversation, and old-school Miami nightlife.
For those who find themselves returning frequently, Red Phone Booth offers several membership options. Membership provides benefits such as year-round access to Red Phone Booth locations, advance seating reservations, exclusive pricing, members-only events, and access to additional spaces.
Members can also rent spirit and cigar lockers, while the venue's cigar-friendly environment includes a walk-in humidor and an onsite tobacconist.
Even for guests who aren't cigar enthusiasts, the venue's advanced air filtration system helps maintain a comfortable environment throughout the space.
In a city filled with rooftop bars, clubs, and cocktail lounges, Red Phone Booth Brickell offers something a little different. It's a place where the experience begins before you even walk through the door.
The secret entrance, vintage-inspired design, knowledgeable bartenders, handcrafted cocktails, Italian-inspired food, and intimate atmosphere come together to create one of the more distinctive Brickell nightlife experiences.
Whether you're looking for a hidden bar in Miami, a sophisticated speakeasy in Brickell, a unique date-night destination, or a place to enjoy expertly crafted cocktails with friends, Red Phone Booth is worth seeking out.
Sometimes the best nights in Miami are the ones hidden behind a red phone booth.
