“Today, we needed some items from a hardware store and wanted it close to home because of the hot weather. We didn't want to go to the big box stores because they were time-consuming wandering around to find your items. Thanks to Yelp, we found our new go-to hardware store right in Miami Beach! This store is so well-stocked with anything and everything that you could want for DIY projects around the house. It looks very well organized and very clean. The employees are friendly and helpful. We found what we were looking for in minutes. The prices are very reasonable, too. Problem solved for us! There is street parking and parking behind the building. Quick and easy.”
“This hardware store is a gem.
A little more than a year ago I purchased an art deco period house in Miami Beach and began a major year+ renovation project. I spent endless hours looking for what I needed at an Ace Hardware store in South Beach, or driving an additional hour round trip to go to a Home Depot in other parts of greater Miami, until I found Central Hardware.
Central Hardware soon became my go-to one-stop hardware store. The team there is knowledgeable and helpful, and while the store does not look particularly large from the street, it is well stocked with floors full of hardware goods, a complete paint department, and a wide-ranging inventory that a shopper might not expect in a neighborhood hardware store. There is also a large public parking lot right out the back door, which is the best way to enter and exit the store. I have done a few spot-checks on items to compare them with a couple of other stores, and found Central Hardware's pricing to be very competitive.
For overall selection, assistance, pricing, convenient location in the middle of Miami Beach, ease of parking, and the neighborhood feel of the store, Central Hardware has become my preferred local source for most of my supplies and tools.”
“I HAD BEEN BUYING ALL KINDS OF THINGS FROM AMERICAN FOR LAST 30 TO 40 YEARS, THE STAFF IS FRIENDLY AND ALWAYS READY TO HELP. I PICK UP ALL THINGS AT THE BACK AND THEY HAVE GOOD HELP THERE TOO. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY SOME PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING AND FINALLY PRICES ARE FAIR.”
“Excellent place to find anything you need for your repairs, remodeling or fixing at home or business. People very kind and helpful. The most amazing thing is the whole store is shining of great clean. Everything is in place and very organized. I gave my compliments to the manager last time I was there. Setting as my new hardware supplier now that I moved close to 41th Street.”
“Ace Hardware on Miami Beach is exactly what a neighborhood hardware store should be—reliable, well-stocked, and genuinely helpful. Every time I’ve walked in, the team has gone out of their way to actually help—not just point, but problem-solve. That level of service is rare.
The store is clean, organized, and surprisingly well-stocked for its size. Whether it’s a quick household fix or something more specific, they almost always have what I need—and if not, they help figure out the best alternative.
I’ve noticed some lower-star reviews, and honestly, I don’t quite get it. My experience has consistently been the opposite—friendly, knowledgeable staff and a smooth, easy shopping experience.
Also have to give a huge shoutout to Susan—she’s the best. I’ve been working with her for years, and she always goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of. That kind of consistency and care is what keeps me coming back.
Highly recommend—this is my go-to for anything I need around the house.”
“I had such an amazing experience at the South Beach location! One of the young ladies there, Kheila, was very informative and answered all my questions with great detail. I definitely learned a few things from her. Thank you all at Ace Hardware South Beach. Kheila, continue the amazing work.”
