The Lore of The Deuce

We Fancy
It's fitting The Deuce finds itself at the end of an article since we're known for closing the day out at 5:00a.m.. Just as fitting is Mac's Club Deuce's mention in the recent Condé Nast Traveler piece on What's hot in Miami for 2023? Where to eat, drink, stay, and play in Florida's fun-loving city. After all we are both prestigious, award winning, luxurious, sophisticated institutions; in the eye of the beholder. We fancy!

As seen in Condé Nast Traveler?
Leave it to Miami native Paul Rubio to make sure Mac's Club Deuce is mentioned in an article In Condé Nast Traveler! While true Deucers know Mac's belongs in such revered publications like Zaget and CNT, we never thought we'd see the day. In his latest piece, Why There's Never Been a Better Time to Visit Miami–a compilation of work from numerous writers–Paul takes readers on an after sundown tour of Miami. So, thanks Paul, we agree, we "irresistibly lo-fi".

64 not 46
We had the pleasure of meeting Jenna Kelley from Narcity Miami recently and the Florida Associate Editor shared her visit online. Prompted by learning of Miami's oldest bar, Jenna shared her experience and a bit of Mac's Club Deuce. Although we would love to extend the legend of Mac Klein by eighteen years, we're compelled to keep his story straight.

When the Scoundrels Find You
Sure, their not the first scoundrels to find their way to Mac's Club Deuce, but the might be the nicest. Scoundrel's Field Guide added The Deuce to their long list of notable dive bars around the country.
