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.

And it's not only the drink menu with its custom crafted cocktails, wines, beers & ciders that will wow you but the accompanying snacks and bites are just as divine. And bonus, it's not only a bar, but also a liquor store with an awesome selection of wines and spirits. This bar definitely has a locals vibe. It's small , dark and cozy and the small tables with velvet chairs are very welcoming. We loved it so much. We came back for a second night. We tried the Maria Rita, which was a reposado tequila with fresh lemon, lime, hibiscus, and habanero, perfect version of a margarita. We also tried blowing smoke up your glass, this was made with Papa Pilar, dark rum, pineapple, fresh lime, house made basil syrup & tiki bitters. Absolutely fabulous. We also tried their deviled eggs each topped with unique toppings like trout row, bacon, and scallions. They were absolutely fabulous. They also have a great selection of charcuterie, Key nuts which you can order with different flavor, profiles, caviar, olives & peppers. Also, the most generous happy hour I've ever heard of from 12 to 6 PM every day. Don't miss out on this little jewel when in Key West.

Perfectly placed for people watching in the evening and away from the louder bars on duval. The service is exceptional and the mai Thai cocktail I ordered was delicious.

The Rum? But why the Rum? 'Cause it be DELICIOUS!!!! This place is friggin AWESOME!!!…read more The wife and I are out exploring the Keys for our anniversary, and we happened upon this bar while walking around Key West. First off, nothing says tropics like Rum! The name is all that needs to be said. Nothing more... nothing less. It's a small and it was packed. Elbow to elbow, which says nothing other than you know this place will be good. My wife is especially cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs when it comes to anything Chesney and Blue Chair rums! You had us at Kenny Chesney Island Girl, and we just had to find a spot and enjoy. And we Most certainly did! It was sublime and refreshing. I was even able to walk out with a souvenir Rum Bar hat (purple). Without a doubt, we will be back and we're telling all of our familia and friends of this place! Thank you for the local experience and as always, Enjoy & Happy Drinking!

This is by far my favorite bar in Key West…read more It may be small but the vibes here are always the best. I love coming here with my girlfriends because the music isn't too loud and you can sit and talk for a while. The bartenders are all so nice and great to chat with. That's all a plus to the fact that the drinks are always delicious!! I enjoy the lychee and the key lime drinks the most, but all the ones I've tried have been great. Theres usually at least one patron that will bring a dog in while they have a cocktail (yay!) and the bathroom is always clean. There was one time I ordered a water and the bartender still put the edible glitter on it so I didn't feel left out as all my friends were drinking. They host all kinds of events often and they have changing drink specials. I come here every time I'm in key west. You may even see a picture of me in the bathroom (iykyk)!

They didn't serve food, but the bartender was super nice. This is an lgbtq bar and looks like they have some pretty cool events, but it's a very small place.

The DJ was playing some great music that kept the dance floor going, and the bartender did a solid job keeping up with orders and taking care of everyone quickly. No complaints from our group at all.

I've been wanting to go to the newly relocated Tiki House and managed to go on a Thursday night,…read moreand the atmosphere was exactly what you'd expect from a Keys tiki bar--laid-back, tropical, and full of energy. The live music was a nice touch, and the setting definitely screams vacation mode. However, here's the catch: Happy Hour was advertised everywhere--on the front signage and even in the hallways--but when we asked about it, the staff seemed completely unaware. No one could confirm the specials, and it felt awkward having to explain what we saw posted. For a place that promotes Happy Hour so visibly, this was a big miss. Drinks were solid, and the vibe was fun, but that disconnect on Happy Hour left us feeling a little disappointed. If you're going for the ambiance and a good time, you'll enjoy it.

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.

We sat at the outdoor bar. Distinct Caribbean vibe located in the historic Bahama Village. Daria brought us drinks & menus. Lots of breakfast & lunch choices here.

Shrimp & Grits - Key West Shrimp Sautéed in White Wine. Butter and Scallions over Grits and White Cheddar w/ fresh fruit ($19) & Andy's Grilled Sharp Cheddar Cheese & Tomato Sandwich w/ potatoes ($13) - again both were excellent.

We went to Blue Heaven after hearing about indulgent brunch and some of the best key lime pie in…read moreKey West. One out of two was correct. The brunch was delicious. Both Husband and I ordered the special omelette, with lobster, bacon, and tomato. The dish was rich and delicious, with an entire lobster tail and plenty of bacon. To top it off, the omelette was accompanied by a slice of banana bread. We were not impressed by the key lime pie. Although the pie looks impressive, topped by a huge mound of meringue, it tasted a bit stale. Its consistency was heavy, and the meringue flavorless. Don't let the pie, however, stop you from going to Blue Heaven. The brunch is great service is friendly, and you can't beat the atmosphere, eating outdoors with the chickens and artwork. Tip: arrive early to avoid a long wait.

There is a small bar with about 12 stools, a small lounge area with about 4 small seating nooks, and then a high top bench area that is along the wall. Service and set up of this place is not conducive to being able to attend to patrons. Could only order food if you were seated at the bar. We sat at the high tops and you had to go to the bar to get your drinks. Problem is that the bar has patrons sitting as well so you are hovering over them waiting for a drink. It was very uncomfortable to impose upon others to try to get a drink. I am sure they didn't appreciate the audience as they were eating as well. The bartenders were way too busy and overwhelmed. Not only are they serving the seated patrons and the 4 small nooks, they are also making drinks for the attached restaurant. There were a gazillion tickets coming out of the printer and servers standing on the other side of the window waiting. It's just not possible to serve everyone with just two bartenders. We waited about 10 minutes for service. The drinks were underwhelming for a speakeasy. Just your typical menu. What we ordered was okay. They just missed a great opportunity to create unique twists on classics or to have craft cocktails. Even the classics (which are perfect for a speakeasy) weren't that great. For a speakeasy, the drinks are the main event. Glad we tried it as we always seek out speakeasies. Wouldn't go again.
