The Oldest House In Miami The Barnacle, a real historical jewel in the heart of Coconut Grove, is one of the oldest buildings in Miami-Dade County standing in its original location! Today, the Barnacle Historic State Park is a popular spot for both history enthusiasts and those looking for a beautiful view. It is open to the public, offering a unique experience to go back in time to the history of Coconut Grove and all of South Florida. Aside from guided tours, there are concerts, yoga classes, movie screenings, picnic dates and more events to choose from at the site. Or you can simply lay back on the lawn and enjoy the same view as Munroe did with his family back in the early 1900s.

White Rose “Specialty coffee, tattoo lobby, working lounge & lifestyle café.” There’s one thing for sure about White Rose: You won’t find another coffee shop like it. The space is also home to Ocho Placas Tattoo Company, The Betancourt Gallery and Palm Film Lab, so you’ll see plenty of creative types weaving in and out at any hour of the day. The coffee shop is a hotbed for local brands: you could grab pair a gold milk latte with a box of Milly’s Empanadas or your Espresso Fino pour over with cookies from local bakers. They do some serious coffee art here too, although the sweet tooths out there should order the cafe bombon, a double shot with condensed milk.

Legion Park Farmers’ Market Legion Park is the place to be on a beautiful Saturday morning, as tents pop up from Biscayne Boulevard all the way to Biscayne Bay. Run by Urban Oasis Project, which oversees some of Miami’s most important farmers markets, you’ll find produce from local favorites like Little River Cooperative and French Farms, artisan-made goods like fresh breads, hummus and empanadas (the Chilean ones are excellent), and even dog treats. (Don’t worry, Fido always gets a free sample.) In the morning, a hundred or so yogis gather under the Spanish-oak draped banyan trees for a donation-based yoga class, and then stock up on goods from some of the new age vendors onsite. When to go: Saturdays 9am–2pm, year-round

Coconut Grove Farmers’ Market The Coconut Grove Farmers Market is probably Miami’s most well-known. Every Saturday, Homestead's Glaser Organic Farms transforms an unoccupied corner of Coconut Grove into a full-fledged produce market with dozens of fruit and vegetable stands, a raw bar featuring prepared foods and salads and coolers filled with cold-pressed juices and nut mylks. There’s even velvety vegan ice cream for sale and several rows of picnic tables where you can sit and enjoy your bounty. Along its periphery, you’ll find other local vendors selling honey, homemade soaps, handmade jewelry and other artisanal items. And the setup and breakdown are so fascinating to watch! Much like the circus leaving town, everyone quickly dismantles their tents and packs up just after sunset, leaving no trace of the bustling day on the empty gravel lot. 3300 Grand Ave, on the corner of Margaret St and Grand Ave. When to go: Saturdays 10am–7pm, year-round

JAGUAR SUN Downtown Jaguar Sun is probably our favorite place in Miami. Some may say it’s a cocktail bar, others, a restaurant with an awesome pasta selection. We’d like to think of it as a combination of both. And there’s something about the vibe that makes you want to chat with the person next to you. Our favorite dishes include the Hokkaido Scallop, the Wagyu Beef Carpaccio with the most delish charred leek aioli, Agnolotti with blue crab, and the Spicy Rigatoni. Make sure to ask if there are any new dishes or off-menu items, sometimes they’ll have something to share with you. Leave room for a Wolf Whistle, their version of a tequila espresso martini paired with dessert.

Discovering the Best Networking Events in Little Havana
If you're looking to boost your networking game in Miami, specifically in vibrant Little Havana, you're in for a treat. This historic neighborhood isn’t just rich in culture and charm; it's also brimming with opportunities to connect with like-minded professionals. While the internet can provide general advice on networking, Kikihub offers local secrets and trends that are essential for making the most out of your foray into this bustling community.
Trending Community Gatherings
Little Havana is known for its range of community events that serve as excellent networking platforms. Every Friday night, "Viernes Culturales" takes over the Southwest 8th Street, offering a rich tapestry of art, music, and local delicacies. It's not just a haven for tourists; many local professionals gather here to unwind and connect. Wander around galleries and kiosks, and you’ll find that these venues are perfect for striking up a conversation, exchanging business cards, and discovering potential partnerships. Regular attendance at these gatherings can make you a familiar face, boosting your chances of building significant connections.
Hotspots for Socializing and Networking
When it comes to socializing and making genuine connections, there's no shortage of hotspots in Little Havana. Bars like "Ball & Chain" offer a mix of vibrant nightlife and networking opportunities. Originally opened in 1935, this iconic bar has become a preferred spot for local entrepreneurs and professionals. The lively environment, paired with live music and delectable cocktails, makes it easier to break the ice and engage in meaningful conversations. Every Wednesday, Ball & Chain hosts a salsa night, which doubles as a fun way to meet new people.
Local Insights on Successful Networking
The Cuban Coffee Advantage
No trip to Little Havana is complete without indulging in some authentic Cuban coffee. Locals swear by "Café La Carreta," not only for its strong, aromatic brew but also as a fantastic informal networking location. This café is often frequented by local business owners and freelancers who are open to discussions over a café con leche or a cortadito. Mikihub users have shared that the early mornings are less crowded and thus more conducive to meaningful conversations. Don't underestimate the power of a simple coffee meet-up—some of the most successful business deals in Little Havana have started over a cup of Cuban coffee.
Exclusive Business Meetups and Events
For those looking to delve deeper into the local business scene, exclusive meetups are where you want to be. "Bridges to Business," hosted monthly at various local venues, is a gathering that connects entrepreneurs, investors, and professionals from diverse sectors. These events are typically low-key, thereby offering a more intimate setting for in-depth discussions and collaborations. Kikihub's anonymous chats have revealed that knowing the 'right' people can secure you an invite, so it's wise to start networking early on and build a network of reliable contacts.
Maximizing Your Presence at Events
Attending Cultural Festivals
The annual "Calle Ocho Festival," the largest street festival in Miami, is an excellent opportunity for networking. While it’s primarily a celebration of Latin culture, it draws in thousands of locals, including potential business contacts. Wearing a shirt branded with your business logo can be an excellent way to start conversations and leave a lasting impression. Participating in the festival's many activities—be it dance competitions, art showcases, or culinary tours—can also open doors for networking. Kikihub insights recommend engaging authentically with the event rather than just handing out business cards.
Leveraging Informal Gatherings
The beauty of networking in Little Havana lies in its informal settings. From spontaneous domino games at Máximo Gómez Park to casual meet-ups at "Old’s Havana Restaurant," staying open to impromptu gatherings can be rewarding. Local Kikihub users suggest being a regular at such spots can build familiarity, making it easier to strike up conversations and develop lasting professional relationships. Remember, in Little Havana, community and camaraderie go hand-in-hand, making informal gatherings an invaluable networking tool.
