Of the World’s Best 50 Bars, Miami’s Broken Shaker is number 14 on the list, and it’s now bringing its fabulous Miami vibes to the big apple.
With a cool backyard feel to it and some vintage Florida furniture, Broken Shaker is most known for their fresh “tropical cocktails that are quintessential Miami.”

The bar will be located at the Freehand Hotel at 23 Lexington Ave, and feature an eclectic menu with Caribbean-Middle Eastern bites as well as their famous tropical cocktails. The food menu has been created by Broken Shaker’s Miami chef Jimmy Lebron. On offer will be items such as Pulpo y Tostones (fingerling potatoes, piquillo emulsion, and la boîte chili oil), Griot & Pikliz (crispy pork shoulder, and Haitian slaw), and Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich (with arabic slaw, and karawan tahini ranch).

When it comes to the amazing cocktails, those will be created by the head bartender Evan Hawkins. The selection will be split into three categories including NYC-inspired drinks (of course), popular cocktails from Miami’s location, and then a mix of the popular creations from Broken Shaker’s LA and Chicago locations as well.
