    a bar counter with a notepad and a cup of coffee
    Kelly H.

    Thought this place would have more personality. It's off to the side of the hotel pool. Drabby atmosphere. 3 people at the bar. I was greeted quickly-asked for a casamigos margarita and it came in an unsalted plastic cup. Right off the bat I knew it wasn't made from scratch as it was served in like 30 seconds. To my strong disappointment it was a really bad mix. In my opinion it is so freaking easy to make a marg from scratch it is a disgrace to serve such a crappy drink in a tropical location. ESPECIALLY with a higher end tequila. I couldn't even finish it. No music other than generic music that was coming from the pool area. Bartender was nice, attentive-and redeemed the night by making me his favorite frozen rum drink. The key lime pie and added a great dark rum floater. The energy evolved as it got a little later and the vibe definitely got better.

    This place is awesome! So relaxed & if ur staying at the hotel it's next to the pool. The bartender Sean is extremely friendly and the decor is on point, see pics. Very reminiscent of the seafaring ways associated w Hemingway. So perfect . Awesome island music!

    What a nice bar this is inside The Gates Hotel in Key West!! With a great parking lot and a nice pool view here you can find any type of drink at a reasonable price and with great vibe!

    My mom being roofied

    I've lived here for a while (3 1/2) yrs and I love day passes here so much but some manager at the bar will make you feel like it doesn't matter based off of looks, being young, etc. Brought my mother down, some dude roofied my mom. We went to the hospital and all. Don't go

    Tito's Mojito!!!

    Ask for Steve! He makes a great mojito! He had us laughing all night. Great guy! The outdoor bar had a great vibe! Glad we came and we will definitely be back!

    In the pool area of the Gates hotel that is right across the street from the ocean . I'm here early so only a few people here but I love the decor of the pool bar plus it has TVs to watch sports. There's a little stage for live bands. Drink prices are average for being in such a great location.they keep it really clean nice place to relax by the pool and have a drink. Lots of parking.

    I'll take the red eye. Human, veggies, guac

    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.

The vibe here is cocktail den, cozy, intimate, dark. It's like a sexy little vixen in the cocktail world with an air of mystery. The menu was very creative, I mean unique combos with premium spirits including absinthe and the bartender was helpful in that she would suggest a drink based upon spirits & profile you prefer. We each had a cocktail and Ithey were both delicious. We tried the I pity a fool, which is Jamison whiskey, peach, lemon, and black pepper. Also, El Cuerno de Aire , an Espadin Mezcal, lemon, and blackberry combo. Yum, Next time I'm in Key West I am definitely coming back here. Don't miss out on this one.

She wanted a cute cocktail with really good atmosphere, so I went to the Internet and found this place! It genuinely was so cute and amazing. We had an awesome conversation with the bartenders and they recommended our drinks for us. Since it was Christmas time most of the drinks Were holiday themed, which I've never seen before. We each had a few drinks, took some really cute pictures with the decor, and went back home to the hostel to catch up. It was a really solid night and I would recommend to anybody in the area.
