Downtown Miami is just north of Brickell and is inland from Miami Beach. It's primarily known as a business district with not a whole lot going on. Luckily, there is a selection of pretty good bars which allow you to take a break from the "typical Miami". NOTE: This list does not include venues which are primarily known for being a lounge or a club.
