WOW, there are so many. Alonzo's has the best deal but no live music but the place still has a good vibe just the same. Conch Republic makes a good drink and has good HH prices. Sometimes good music but it gets a little loud. Green Parrot always has cheap drinks and good music but I think the music is only in the evening. We love having a drink on The Afterdeck (at Louie's Backyard) around sunset. We always meet fun people. Virgilios (sp?) is a fun Martini bar but things do not get going until late, maybe after 10pm so its a fun place to go after dinner.

I forgot. Half Shell Raw Bar also has a good HH but its at the bar only and we have usually found it packed. If thats the case we walk around the board walk to Alonzo's.

I don't remember, No_Name. Maybe it's not there anymore. We just happened in there with friends who live on Islamorada one night, and had the most fun dancing. We were two hetero couples and couldn't have had a better time. Thanks for trying to help. Do you live in Key West?

It's not either of those. It's probably long gone. Oh, well, it was fun luvs2pack, but must not be there anymore.

I need to fire up my google earth. Maybe that will be this evenings entertainment! ;-)
