If you hate waiting in line to see South Florida’s who’s who at play and despise dropping a dime or two or 10 for a table and a bottles, Automatic Slims is your type of place . A favorite among locals, Slims doesn’t play up to the glamorous lifestyle with velvet ropes, overpriced drinks and over publicized DJs. With a motto like no cover, no VIP, no bullshit, Automatic Slim’s serves up wet drinks, busty bartenders and real live rock ‘n’ roll.
This one-room club comes complete with stripper poles, trailer park neon signs and kitschy décor. And with a second location in Fort Lauderdale, the dive bar’s debauchery-filled nights that originated in South Beach are catching on all over South Florida. Karaoke Mondays are essential for a few beers too many and a trip to the mic for a little “Sweet Home Alabama.” You may even bump into Paris Hilton, as she hits Slims whenever she’s in town.
