    As we walked closer to the front door of the 801 Bourbon Bar a 6'0 man with sizeable silicon boobs posed sexy for us and provided tickets to the cabaret show upstairs. The first floor had great music and strong drinks at affordable prices. Actually we have been here only a handful of times over the years and had fun, although never made it up to the cabaret. Definitely a bar for the open minded human.

    A Key West Classic. We love the bartenders , drinks, atmosphere , staff and drag shows. This place is a must every time we visit KW!

    Prude people beware of this bar. Very fun place to hang out with strong drinks and sperm squirt gun games - really was. Met some other people here but did not watch the cabaret show upstairs. Took some pictures with the cross-dressers. Only had drinks here and not sure if they have a food menu.

    It was a different type of bar that I was experienced too but it was overall fun. The drinks are cold and is very vibrant atmosphere.

    Great drag show! Great atmosphere. Feels more genuine than some of the other clicky bars. Great staff. I highly recommend. Good prices. Bought tickets ahead of time for the Thursday 9 show.

    Our last trip to Key West we had walked by 801 but it was so late we decided not to go and boy did we make up for it this time. We stopped into 801 for a drink midday during our honeymoon and I was hooked. The ambiance was amazing, the bartenders were so friendly (Alvin, we miss you in NC!), and the drinks were delicious! We went into 801 3-4 more times that week and 2/4 were for drag shows which were AMAZING. The performers there are so much fun, and so interactive. We went to one during the week which was pretty laid back, definitely a lot more chill and quiet. We then went to one the Friday before we left and it was BOOMING. Every chair in there was filled. There is a bar upstairs too which is nice because we didn't have to go back downstairs for drinks. We ended up sitting VIP on Friday and I can't even put into words how amazing the show was. This place is so inclusive (like the majority of Key West) and it was so calming and fun to be in a space where I knew I would be welcomed and accepted. We will definitely be back!!

    What is the age requirement for Bingo on sundays?

    21 years old. Enforced.

    I have a friend coming with who is 19, is this bar just for 21+?

    Yes, 21 and up. However, if he's cute and gets there early before it gets crowded he'll probably get in. Confidence and posture go a long way!!!!

    The concept here is executed so well - it is one of best finds we have found in years…read more First, the decor and atmosphere is incredible. The decor is seductive in such a tasteful and classy way, everything is so romantic. It's beautiful. Cozy, intimate booths. Sparkling chandeliers flickering in candlelight. Ambient lighting. It is a perfect place to end your evening with your partner. We made reservations the morning of, on a Wednesday evening for our anniversary, and were seated promptly. Service was incredible from start to finish. I appreciate their ipad menus with questions to ask your partner, peruse the menu, and read about the origins. There are plenty of drinks and deserts with double entendre names, they're so fun. Huge positive that they have virgin drinks, and several to choose from. Both deserts we tried were out of the world delicious. The missionary crisp ice cream and flavor was 10/10, no notes to improve. Key lime from behind was the best key lime I've had in my life and quickly became the best we have tried on Key West. Incredible and what a lovely place!!

    Well, no it isn't…read more But our party of five enjoyed having drinks and dessert here. It's really more aimed at a young couple in love, but we had fun. Romantic lighting and private booths made for some good ambiance. The iPad menus were great and very useful in selecting desserts and drinks. Everything on order is accompanied by a double entendre title, which makes it fun to pick. Candy rimmed beer was good; and the berry crisp and ice cream offerings were tasty. Honestly too big, even for two. But they were trying to do something different. To know: they do not have a license for hard liquor. A fun spot to have a sweet treat. Maybe don't bring the kids.

    Mary Ellen's Bar and Kitchen…read more From the outside, it's just a plain white building sittin' in the sun nothing flashy, nothing pulling you in. Real easy to walk right past it without a second thought. But step inside... and now you're in a whole different story. The walls, the ceiling, the corners every inch feels like it's been collected over time, layered with memorabilia and personality. And the wild part? It doesn't stay the same. The décor can shift with the mood, like the place is alive and just decides to reinvent itself whenever it feels like it. You go in thinking it's just a quick stop. Then the drinks start flowing, the room starts buzzing, and next thing you know you're laughing louder than you planned, talking longer than you expected. Sure, maybe there was a little drinking involved but truth be told, it's the atmosphere doing most of the heavy lifting. They've got events, music, off-the-wall fun mixed in with a laid-back crowd, and it all just works without trying too hard. The food holds its own too solid comfort stuff that hits right when you need it and the service keeps things moving smooth without missing a beat. It's one of those spots... looks like nothing on the outside, but inside it's a whole experience. Another one of those "hidden gems," yeah but this one earns it the hard way.
