LGBTQ+ Miami Beach: Snatch This 2-Day Itinerary

12 PM. Miami Beach Icon: Brunch at the Palace

📍1052 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139

Our first stop was the legendary Palace Bar & Restaurant, a Miami Beach icon for over three decades. This LGBTQ+ institution isn't just a bar, it's a full-fledged restaurant with amazing food and, of course, fabulous drag shows (not to speak of the rooftop pool with an ocean view!).  

We were fortunate enough to experience a Monday drag brunch, where we were entertained by talented drag queens while enjoying a delicious meal.  

Did you know? The Palace Bar & Restaurant wasn't always surrounded by the vibrant nightlife of Ocean Drive! When it first opened in 1988, it was actually the only restaurant on the entire strip! Today, they still spend homage to their culinary roots by offering top-notch dishes alongside the drag performances.
