CocoaMom Posted May 13, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Staying at Lao Mar and will have a car. Wondering what the parking is like at Southport. Would like to know if they have only a handful of spaces, mostly street parking or if I shouldn't bother taking my car there (it's a Saturday eve we're going). There will be 6 and I'm not opposed to taking a taxi there. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always park at my girlfriend's house then walk there so I've never had to fight for parking. If you google earth you'll see there is a lot of parking in the area.

The lot right in front is very small and also has another business right next to the Southport Raw Bar. There is a sign that directs you to an additional lot for Southport. As mentioned there is other parking (on street) in the area. It's a pretty cool place to hang out at. Pretty good food (excellent clam chowder), cold beer, it has a local's feel to it, and the outside deck area is nice. It's my favorite place so far in Ft. Lauderdale. There are pictures of the place in my review of the Allure (link in my signature). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to risk an encounter with the local P.D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
