Presidente Bar, one of Latin America’s most lauded cocktail destinations, has made its U.S. debut in Miami’s Wynwood neighborhood.
The expansion marks a new chapter for the Buenos Aires-based concept, which was founded in 2017 by Sebastián “Seba” García and is known for its inventive drinks and theatrical flair. Presidente Bar Miami reimagines this ethos for a new audience, blending Argentine influences with the creative energy of its Wynwood surroundings.
The venue features a 100-seat main lounge and the 60-seat speakeasy-style La Biblioteca, and will also host live DJs, artistic pop-ups, and curated events.

Presidente Bar’s cinematic flair
Designed by Buenos Aires-based firm AB Estudio, the two-level space was conceived as “liquid architecture,” with sculptural lighting, gilded details, and lush green tones shaping a richly layered environment.
A sweeping mural by Argentinian artist Martín Ron unfolds across the space, adding visual drama and a sensory journey.
Every design detail—from custom barware to handcrafted furnishings—was made in Argentina, underscoring the brand’s deep commitment to artistry and cultural continuity.
Secrets unfold at La Biblioteca
Accessed through velvet curtains, La Biblioteca nods to Presidente Bar’s original Buenos Aires backroom bar.
Here, floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, mirrored floors, and soaring ceilings recall the salons of a bygone era, reinterpreted through a sultry, modern lens.
