The Brown Boxer Pub & Grille South Beach, Clearwater

Sometimes, inspiration can strike in most unlikely places. In the case of The Brown Boxer, it struck in a snowy Philadelphia night and a brindle colored boxer named Hoot. The founders of The Brown Boxer were daydreaming of a warm, relaxing environment where they cold drink cold beers and stay warm, which eventually led to them starting a line of fun, casual Florida sports bars that they named after their furry friend.

The atmosphere at The Brown Boxer is a mix of laid-back and high-octane. There's live entertainment almost every night that ranges from live music to karaoke, but it's also a great place for kicking back and watching the game. As if its lively atmosphere and full draft list wasn't enough, dogs (and not just boxers) are allowed to join in the fun.
