Football season is here and that means it’s imperative to have a reliable Game Day eats spot up your sleeve. For sports fans in Miami, Grails is a play that never disappoints. This lively sports bar is a watch party dream with delicious bar bites and 70+ televisions projecting every possible game. 

In the heart of Miami’s popular Wynwood neighborhood, Grails truly embraces the area’s artistic, vibrant spirit with muraled walls, creative cocktails, and plenty of ways for fans to enjoy Game Day. 

“We started with the vision of being more than just a place to watch sports, and over the years, we’ve evolved into a community hub for both locals and visitors,” says Will Smith, owner and operator of Grails Miami. “We’ve consistently refreshed our space with new art installations, expanded our menu to include more diverse and delicious options, and embraced technology with our app for easier reservations and special deals.”

The term “grails” is used by sneaker fanatics to refer to their idea of the “holy grail” of sneakers — aka the really rare, nearly impossible-to-get shoes that are heavily coveted by collectors. At Grails the sports bar, you’ll find a few actual grails like the Nike MAG Back to the Future sneakers displayed in glass boxes along the walls. There’s also specialty drinks served out of custom-made porcelain sneaker vessels that play into the theme.

Themes are big at this Miami sports bar, when during football season guests will find special game day menu items. Keeping all guests in mind — whether you enjoy the game at home or on-site, the offerings at Grails change regularly, ensuring there’s something new and exciting with every visit or order.

“This football season, we’re rolling out fan-favorite specials like the "Touchdown Platter" loaded with wings, sliders, and fries which is perfect for sharing,” says Smith. “We’ve also got the "Field Goal Combo," that pairs our signature nachos with a bucket of select beers.”

When it comes to bar food, the menu at Grails is filled with the classics — most of which have names that are a play on Game Day lingo. From Kickin’ Spinach Artichoke Dip to Slam Dunk Mozzarella Sticks, these dishes score every time.

Other tasty items include the Loaded Totchos (aka tater tot nachos) topped with brisket and a BBQ drizzle and a massive BBQ brisket sandwich topped with pickles and red cabbage slaw on a toasted brioche bun. Of course, like any proper sports bar, Grails is also known for its chicken wings in your choice of ten different preparations ranging from buffalo to mango habanero.

“For delivery through DoorDash, we’re offering Game Day packages so fans can enjoy the full Grails experience from their couch,” shares Smith. 

No matter what team you're rooting for, one thing we can all agree on is that food is a very important part of any gathering. The goal at Grails is to provide easy access to every game and an environment filled with great food and a cool crowd. “Grails isn’t just a sports bar; it’s an experience,” says Smith. “We’ve curated the ultimate fan destination.”

Smith also notes that this season there are plenty of exciting incentives for customers, many of which will be tailored to the teams playing each week. With an array of promotions including ever-changing half-time contests and exclusive drink deals tied to in-game events (like discounted shots when the home team scores) you never know what kind of surprises Grails may have in store for your next watch party.

“The energy here is electric — fans of all teams come together, creating a camaraderie that makes every game feel like a home game,” says Smith. “Add in our killer food, craft cocktails, and friendly service, and you’ve got the perfect spot to cheer on your team.”
