Top 5 Things To Do in The Roads

(1)

Brickell, Downtown Miami, and Coconut Grove? 

If those three neighborhoods don't remind you of a whirlwind of world-class, eclectic, and delicious eats you can think of, I don't know what will!

While the quaint triangular neighborhood mostly shares dining spots and restaurants with its nearby communities, save for a few within the area that are predominantly Latin American and Southern American cuisines, it shares a dining scene with THREE of the biggest players in Miami's culinary industry! 

And you know what that means? 

You're bound for bottomless dining options!

That said, be sure to visit local The Roads food spots while you're in the area. 

Most of their famous restaurants are hipster vibes and casual hangouts, so be sure to bring your friends for the perfect The Roads meetup!

Shopping is quite a big thing in Miami, and though The Roads doesn't have its own sky-high shopping malls and outlets, it's a walking distance from an array of shopping destinations!

Start your shopping rendezvous at the Brickell City Centre, a $1 billion development that houses high-end shopping and dining that fulfills the wishes of food lovers and shopaholics alike. 

Then, venture down just a few blocks towards Mary Brickell Village, which you may find a bit more modest than the latter, but a shopping center still packed with shops, restaurants, and specialty stores to keep you high on shopping.

There are plenty more shopping routes to visit, especially since The Roads is also nearby Downtown Miami and Coconut Grove, so be sure to wear your comfiest shoes because a lot of walking and commuting will ensue!

A city neighborhood with a bunch of parks within its reach? 

That sounds like a dream, doesn't it?

For The Roads locals and visitors, your dream is their reality! 

The Roads is brimming with parks! 

And we're not just talking about tiny lots of green spaces! 

In fact, The Roads boasts at least ten parks and a few gardens! 

Here, you can arrange a jogging sesh with pals, a quick nature walk, or a family date outdoors! 

Visit Simpson Park, Alice Wainwright Park, Triangle Park, and more! 

The community also shares Brickell and Downtown Miami's parks and Coconut Grove's.

Always a beautiful neighborhood to stop and smell the flowers-- literally!

Most people consider The Roads a pitstop for Brickell, Downtown Miami, or Coconut Grove. 

Yet, if you look at it from a more positive perspective, the neighborhood is much like a magical gateway for exploration!

You see, since the community is nearby famous tourist attractions and areas, it's hassle-free to go to and from these spots from The Roads! 

Some are even only a walking distance away!

Meanwhile, for shops, restaurants, and tourist attractions in other Miami neighborhoods, The Roads is also served by the Miami Metrorail at the Vizcaya station to the south and by the Brickell station to the north, so traveling is a breeze.

Brickell is the fastest-growing Miami neighborhood and arguably has the best portion of the skyline, so being in The Roads means you'll get to enjoy a rockin' night scene, too! 

After all, the neighborhood is tagged the "community that never sleeps," so you can expect your after-hours to be filled to the brim, even if you have to walk a few minutes to Brickell. 

It's well worth the side trip, anyway.

Meanwhile, for a more outdoorsy kind of play, you've got Coconut Grove, the UNOFFICIAL sailing capital of Miami, so it's only proper to enjoy this fun water sport while you're on The Roads!

Plan a visit to this tropical oasis, and you'll find several sailing, boating, and yachting haunts all within walking distance of each other. 

You'll never run out of stuff to do while you're in The Roads, that's for sure!
