Great Live music/Dive bar--only one of it's breed in Downtown Ft. Lauderdale. Sometimes referred to as "Churchill's of the North." Bathrooms are an effort but not impossible. They got food now, but I can't vouch for it as of yet. No smoking inside, but the outside is pretty accessible. If you do smoke or just sit outside, you'll be treated to the best people watching and hijinx this side of World Star.
Great downtown place for live music and fun.
Good music, a very nice man pours a good beer 🍺 thanks my friend ! Very good actitud.
awesome venue for diy punk/goth/etc shows. the bartenders are really good people. the beer selection is great and the drinks are fantastic. if your band is playing here on the weekend, spring for the parking across the street. it's pricy but totally worth it at the end of the night when the streets are blocked and you can't get back in to load your equipment out.
With inflation as high as it is right now I have found a new love and appreciation for poorhouse. While everything else may seem to be crazy poorhouse stays consistent with its great friendly staff and cheap but tasty drinks.
This is the best bar in Fort Lauderdale and the only one really worth going to if you are into cheap beer, rock n roll, and girls with tattoos. The place doesn't open until 9 or 9:30 so there really isn't any action until late (10pm or after), so it's a great late night destination. The place is a filthy dive but that is a big part of it's allure. Everything else in the downtown area pales in comparison. The back bar is the place to be on a Friday or Saturday night where bartender Tommy puts on cult horror movie classics on the TV and serves up great beer at a price so cheap it's unmatched in town. Great original live music by some very fine local bands several nights a week.
One of the best dives in ft lauderdale. Cold cheap beer, great live music, a big parking lot right across the street. Definitely a bathroom that you don’t want to sit directly on the seat lolol part of its divey charm though
First time at Poorhouse since going to Las Olas for over a decade. I like the chill vibes of this place and the bartenders are probably some of the nicest I’ve encountered. Definitely the perfect spot for the metal crowd. They have live music on certain nights I believe.
Jay is the most loyal bartender on the strip. His food? Unbelievable. He smokes his own pork. Serves straight magic within his food. The drinks are THE most reasonable on the downtown strip. This place is beautiful and undeniable.
This place is a dive bar but if you’re trying to have a good time....this is THE PLACE. The staff is extremely nice and they put the customers first. Tommy was an AMAZING bartender. He was cool and super sweet! If you’re in Fort Lauderdale, this bar is a MUST!
This is a cool place to chill at. We went to watch some friends live performance in the later hours of the night. Very underground feel and we enjoyed ourselves.
Poorhouse has been established for a very long time. Two bars, stage for live music, outside seating, cig vender.
Hunter was an amazing bartender. Super personal and showed me a great time in Orlando.
This is my Go-To Bar in Downtown Ft Lauderdale.
Nice "Hole in the Wall" bar with great prices on drinks. No cover charge when bands are playing.
Tommy is a great bar tender and will always be kind to you, whether you're a local or just looking for a spot to get a drink.
