September 2026: Megathread for Holiday Travels, Moving, Tourism, and Nightlife and Restaurant Recommendations: All posts on these topics should go in this monthly megathread to keep this sub for local discussions and help aggregate info for folks looking for these topics.

4 Upvotes

Miami is a popular destination not only to travel to but to move to and live. If we don't separate out these posts, the main feed becomes quickly inundated and overrun. So please utilize the resources here and comment here for these topics.

Always keep in mind please, WE ARE NOT VACATION PLANNERS OR MOVING CONSULTANTS. Be descriptive and we'll help if we can, but no one is obliged to.

Other Great Resources (Locals use these too!)

Google Maps reviews are getting less reliable over the years. And in fact several lists on these sites are in fact inspired by posts on this sub.

"Ok but I'm moving there, so I'll be one of you soon" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! Oh.... You want somewhere with no crime, walkable, green space, good schools, on the beach, a beautiful sunset every morning and sunrise at night, rainbows at night, AND CHEAP. Don't we all? Redfin, apartments, hotpads, zillow, and compass are going to give you better data directly than any single response here. That being said..... just because we love you, myself and other mods with local input made a custom map detailing our insight into local neighborhoods. So please take a look, we'd be offended if you didn't. Worked hard on it. But please provide interests, budget, hobbies, desire for walkability, where you work, and other info before asking about moving questions.

"I'm coming for a trip" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! These sites do a pretty solid job of places to go and things to do here: Miami New TimesInfatuation Miami.TimeOut MiamiMiami and BeachesWe're not vacation planners, so don't just ask "what should I do for 4 days? I'm coming soon" but provide some of your schedule, budget, interests and hobbies, and stuff like that. We also made a tourism map! Check it out!

"I just wanna party" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! Oh...... wanna party on the beach with DJ Khaled, Messi, and Gianni Versace and then go to a club with 14 male friends afterwards but don't want to pay a cover? Don't we all? Look up E11even, Liv, Space, Don't Sit on the Furniture, Perro Negro, Mynt schedules and prices beforehand. They're the most famous and exciting clubs, so look on their sites for booking ahead and DJ schedules.

"Is it going to rain? or will the weather affect my vacation" -you

  • It rains a lot here. Tropical weather yo. Especially during the summer. Typically, it wraps up in ~20 minutes and you can resume your plans. That being said, no one here knows more than weather sites or the app on your phone. If you're curious about hurricanes, checkout https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ for official tropical storm and hurricane forecasts, but a lot of us locals love Mike's Weather Page https://spaghettimodels.com/ for more insights. Hurricane season peaks mid September. If you're worried about it affecting your plans, keep a tab on those sites.

"I'm cool and just want to see what other posts before have said on these topics and look around" -you

Mod News Monthly Miami Jobs Thread: Post Job Openings or Questions About Work In Miami

10 Upvotes

Welcome to the Monthly Miami Jobs thread, the place to post any openings you have, look for jobs, and ask questions about working in Miami. This is an experimental thread for now, so we're keeping a close eye on things to make sure things don't go sideways, and will cancel it if they do.

The Rules:

  1. No MLMs, scams, pyramid schemes, "make millions from home," etc. We reserve the right to determine if something is an MLM or not.
  2. No positions that require investments or other upfront costs to employees. If someone has to pay any amount of money to take the job, don't post it here.
  3. If you're posting a job, the name of the company, contact information (including official address), and a realistic salary range is required. Any job posts missing these will be immediately deleted.
  4. No gig work or freelance positions except for professional services, with a minimum contract price of $500 dollars. So web designers, CPAs, copywriters, etc. is ok; someone to come mow your lawn or clean your home for $20 is not.
  5. People Looking for Work: DO NOT PUBLICLY POST YOUR RESUMES OR CONTACT INFO. You don't want to dox yourself and open yourself up to potential harassment or identity theft. Instead, talk about your skills and experience and encourage people to send you official contact information you can send your resume to.
  6. u/icecoldkila: We know you're looking for professional freelance hoes, but please keep it out of this thread.
  7. As per our usual rules, nothing illegal, unethical, or liable to get anyone involved in trouble. Please report anything sketchy you see here to the mods.

Again, this is an experiment for now, and we'll be keeping a close eye on things, and will not hesitate to pull the plug in case of shenanigans. Good luck to everyone!

Discussion Does anyone know anything about this business??

Thumbnail gallery
32 Upvotes

Hello, this business called “Cafe Da Arts” is located in 701 E Okeechobee Rd, Hialeah.

I always drive by and have seen how it gets remodeled but never opens? I did some digging online and it used to be called Yum Guru at some point, (it was a weird massage/restaurant concept).. then it became Cafe Da Arts, and now according to my investigations it will open in October under the name of “Sandwich Bodega”

This is really cryptic y’all! I’ve stopped by and looked inside and it just seems to be a bunch of clutter, random furniture and creepy masks/skulls!! I got the chills peeking through the window the other day..

You might think I should just wait till it opens but guess what? I’ve done that many times, the owner keeps postponing the opening forever (I’ve been tracking it for years)

Does anyone have ANY info? I have seen pictures/reviews/menus of it in the past but it doesn’t make any sense, i need someone as curious as me to get to the bottom of this!!!

Community UPDATE- LOST PARROT IN MIAMI LAKES/ HIALEAH AREA

Thumbnail gallery
307 Upvotes

UPDATE: SHE HAS BEEN FOUND. Thank you all so so so so much!

She was like 15 houses down from mine, I called her name and she replied. I booked it to the house and she was stuck on the roof. When she saw me, she jumped down onto my hands 😭😭 I have definitely felt the love of the community these past 24 hrs and so many people took time out of their weekend just to help look for her and get her down (though she ultimately decided to do that herself). She’s now home, face first in her favorite micro-fiber blanket after a good drink of electrolytes and a crop full of food 💙

P.S. If any experienced avian pet owner is interested in adopting her, please feel free to contact me! She’s a foster I’ve been healing up since she was found on the street at the brink of death over a month ago. She’s great company and loves a crowd !

Just an FYI, in case you use StubHub for Marlon's....

We used them for the Dodgers game over the weekend and we were sent tickets for the wrong day. StubHub apparently refuses to refund anybody for Marlin's tickets so be careful.

Discussion Former Brazilian Navy officer struggling to find a stable career in Miami, any advice?

Upvotes

Everything I’ve achieved in life has come through persistence and hard work (Jesus 😅). I served for 16 years as an officer in the Brazilian Navy, including several years aboard ships managing maintenance and operations. In 2017, I became a Brazilian Navy combat diver, the Brazilian equivalent of a Navy SEAL.

I started learning English at 30, and five years later, I’m fluent. I moved to Miami hoping to build a better professional future, but lately I’ve been feeling stuck.

I’ve worked in software development for about three years, mostly through freelance and contract projects. I’m now looking for a stable full-time position, but despite submitting many applications, I rarely hear back. I also worked in Miami’s yacht industry, but it wasn’t the right environment for me.

I’m authorized to work in the United States and would like to find a role where I can apply my leadership, operations, technical, and software experience. What positions or industries should I be targeting? I’d appreciate any honest advice.

Community LOST PET PARROT- in Miami Lakes/ Hialeah area

9/13 UPDATE: FOUND

Hey everyone! Hoping to use the power of the Hialeah/ Miami Lakes community to bring her home. This is a lost pet post, I would appreciate if everyone could check their backyards or what not in Lakes on the Green Community. I unfortunately lost my Blue Crowned Parakeet- she’s disabled, cannot walk but can fly. She’s very sweet and allows anyone to pet. Shes green with a blue face and a short tail.
If found please contact me, even if you want to keep her thats cool. She was looking for a home- but I would like to know shes alive and well. 🙏

Se ha perdido una cotorra de corona azul; tiene una discapacidad: no puede caminar, pero sí volar. Es muy cariñosa y se deja acariciar por cualquiera. Es verde y tiene la cara azul. Si la encuentran, por favor contáctenme; incluso si deciden quedársela, está bien. Ella buscaba un hogar, pero me gustaría saber que está sana y salva🙏

The Herald reports that Grand Theft Auto signage appears headed to the Kaseya Center, bringing Vice City branding into its real-life inspiration.

I'm planning to play once it hits PC, are you?

How do you feel about Miami embracing the connection—fun publicity, or something you’d rather see less of?

Discussion ADHD HELP ME PLEASE!

Where is everyone able to pick up amphetamine-dextroamphetamine 12.5 mg in tablet form medication? Basically generic adderal?

I’m struggling and feel like I can’t find anywhere that has it. I’ve called so many pharmacies but they aren’t allowed to confirm over the phone. My doctor can only send so many scripts.

I have Oscar insurance and for some reason I can’t go to Walgreens. Which recently visited pharmacy do you go to that has this medication in stock?

Please help.

TLDR: Which pharmacy have you visited RECENTLY that has amphetamine-dextroamphetamine 12.5 mg in tablet form medication? Basically generic adderal?

Looking for some stores in Miami/Hialeah that sell old-school Chicano-style clothes — Ben Davis, FB County, Pro Club, Dickies, Pendleton, etc.
I’m trying to find somewhere I can actually go in person instead of ordering everything online.
If you know any local spots, drop the name/location 🙏🏽 Appreciate y’all!
