Rhythm & Vine

What Rhythm & Vine does

Rhythm & Vine is a single-location bar and outdoor garden venue operating at 401 NE 5th Terrace in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, within the Knallhart Group hospitality portfolio. The venue serves adult (21+) nightlife and social entertainment seekers in Southeast Florida, offering specialty cocktails, beer, wine, and spirits, with bottle service featuring brands such as Ketel One and Moët & Chandon, complemented by rotating food trucks operating Wednesday through Sunday. Two distinct private event spaces, The Garden (100 guests) and The Den (100 guests), support weddings, corporate events, birthdays, and full venue buyouts, providing a second higher-ACV revenue stream alongside walk-in bar service.

The venue generates revenue through four streams: in-venue food and beverage sales, bottle service reservations (booked by phone or text), private event rentals with full-service bars, AV, and catering, and branded merchandise (t-shirts and tank tops priced at $25) sold via ToastTab. Pricing is transactional and tiered across a recurring weekly calendar, including Off The Clock happy hour ($5 classic cocktails, $25 beer buckets), Local Love Wednesdays (50% off for Fort Lauderdale residents with ID), Kitty Kat Thursdays (complimentary bubbles for ladies), Rhythm & Vibe Sunday bottomless ($30), Shift Show Sundays (50% off for industry workers), and the Vintage & Vine first-Saturday market. No proprietary technology is disclosed; the website runs on BentoBox and operations are supported by ToastTab.

Customer acquisition is primarily through organic social (Facebook, Instagram), the company website, an email newsletter signup, word-of-mouth, and community-driven activations such as Vintage & Vine. The company is privately held, reports 1-10 employees, has no disclosed revenue or funding history, and operates under the Knallhart Group umbrella alongside more than a dozen affiliated F&B concepts in the Fort Lauderdale market.
