Description

Apothecary 330 is a speakeasy-style cocktail bar in Fort Lauderdale’s Himmarshee district with craft drinks, brick-oven pizza, and chandelier-lit decor. Best for date nights and small groups who want creative cocktails in a moody setting.

Overview

Apothecary 330 sits behind a pizzeria on SW 2nd Street in the Himmarshee district, blending speakeasy theatrics with a genuine craft cocktail program. You enter through Pizza Craft, the attached brick-oven pizzeria, and step into a chandelier-lit back room dressed in warm tones, leather seating, and shelves of bottles stacked floor to ceiling. The apothecary theme runs deep in the decor – think vintage glassware, moody lighting, and dark wood that makes the room feel like a set piece from another era.

The cocktail menu leans creative, with bartenders mixing custom concoctions on request. Regulars single out drinks like the lychee martini, and the bar stocks a wider range than most spots this size, covering craft beer, wine, and a serious hard-liquor selection. Happy hour brings the price point down from its moderate-to-splurge range.

Food comes from the Pizza Craft kitchen. The handmade, brick-oven pizzas are a genuine draw – multiple guests call them among the best they have had in the area – and the pizza craft salad gets consistent praise for freshness. Wings have their fans, though kitchen consistency can vary from visit to visit.

The crowd skews date-night and small groups on weeknights, shifting toward larger parties and tourists as the week builds toward Friday and Saturday. The space handles groups well, with staff accommodating walk-in parties of seven or more even late in the evening. Solo visitors will find the bar seating comfortable and the bartenders attentive.

Apothecary 330 is closed Mondays. Weeknight hours start at 5 PM, while Saturday and Sunday open earlier at 11 AM, with the latest close at midnight on Thursdays through Saturdays. Reservations are accepted and worth making on weekends. Outdoor seating is available for anyone who wants to trade the speakeasy darkness for fresh air on Himmarshee Street.
