Here’s where to watch the Super Bowl in Miami if you don’t want to do it at home

You could be that person who watches the Super Bowl at home alone or with your cat.

You could even invite a few friends over, but that means shopping and possibly cooking or at least mixing dip. And that, my friends, is exhausting.

Watching at a bar or restaurant, however, means someone else grills the chicken wings, and you can take it easy and enjoy all the big game has to offer. Here are a few of the best places in Miami to watch Super Bowl LIV and wonder how long it’s going to be before the Dolphins are in it again.
