Margie is AWESOME! Great little neighborhood bar with three pool tables and multiple dart boards ( plastic and steel tips ) , great music via a touchtunes juke. This is a smoking bar ( one of the few left ) , so no food is available. There are plenty of food options within 3 minutes walk or less. The locals were friendly with a sprinkle of tourists mixing in. Full liquor bar and beers in bottles are available for a reasonable price. 4 bucks for a domestic! I was here on a Friday day, so some of the guests were here while they were doing laundry next door which I found very convenient.

This place is literally my new favorite. I drive up from Miami Beach to come visit my girl friend who lives nearby. We discovered this place last week because I just wanted to play pool. Have been back three times now(!) It is the chillest bar ever, tucked away in a little plaza. Bigger than it looks from the outside. The people there are super friendly, outgoing, and the vibes are just A. No pretentiousness, come as you are, people of all ages. Jukebox is modern & you can control it from your phone which is super fun. 1 pool tables and free ping pong and people actually have etiquette and are polite about taking turns. (Shocker!) Drinks are totally reasonable. Go buy takeout chicken wings from Louie's across the plaza if you get hungry... they are so so good(!) I love it!

Phenomenal service from Kurt at the back bar. The guy sensed me coming from a distance and immediately came over to me every single time I came up to the bar for another round. It was incredible

This place has a real dive bar charm, with quirky decorations and a laid-back crowd. They have a great selection of local beers on tap, and the prices are super reasonable. Besides the drinks, there's tons to do - pool, darts, ping pong, even a few old-school arcade games. If you're looking for a fun, unpretentious place to hang out with friends, definitely check out Kim's.

This place is a gem! A locals favorite, Kim’s has two bars, a jukebox, darts, pool, and even ping pong! I love coming here for a few ice cold beers after work or a day at the beach, typically served up by the wonderful Amanda! She is by far, my favorite bartender in Fort Lauderdale! Do yourself a favor, and stop in for a few, you won’t regret it!

Kim's is my favorite local watering hole! It's super low key and I love to run the ping pong table and control the jukebox! See you there.

Margie is the best bartender! Whenever I come in, she makes me feel home. Bottom line, after being in the industry for nearly 50 years, I will drive 40 minutes to enjoy the atmosphere... and great service!
