The quintessential traditional Florida hangout. Once beloved by smugglers, it became the "classiest dive bar" in town. It was a popular location for photo and film shoots.

Closed in 2012. Sic transit gloria.

  • Also, Jimbos, from what I've read served as the little restaurant that Tubbs and Crockett pull up to in Miami Vice. The episode was called Glades. This was suposed to take place somewhere deep in the everglades but,in reality was in Miami.
  • Scenes from the TV show Flipper were filmed here too.
  • Also the TV show Burn Notice
  • People may try to scam you, so heads up.
