Ball & Chain Saloon opened its doors in 1935. The building offers a facade history as colorful and fascinating as any structure on this part of Calle Ocho, an area within Little Havana that is increasingly being considered for your Miami stadium visit.
It was and is a nighttime hangout for many of the world's most famous jazz musicians, including Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Count Basie and Chet Baker. Ball & Chain offers craft cocktails, tapas and live entertainment, under the guise of an old-time name, to guests from near and far in a neighborhood that is now experiencing gentrification and an unprecedented tourism boom.
