| - Frankies Tiki room! You must go check this place out.
Its my go to spot! The roomates and I are here at least once a week.
The Bartenders are fantastic, they don't skimp and are very good to their regulars. The speciality drinks are $8 which may seem a tad high if you're used to the local dives, but these babies are POTENT. I only need one!
I also have made it my personal mission to collect all the tiki mugs they sell. (for $20 you get a mug and one of the special drinks is included--NOT a bad deal at all) Each mug was designed by a different artist, and occasionally they'll have a new one on special occasions come out for a limited time)
Lots of rockabilly folk come out to this bar too of course, so if you're a fan of the look, you definitely want to hang out here on a saturday night.
I would suggest sitting at the bar or at the booths if possible, the tiki chairs are cool to look at but uncomfortable to sit in. LAST resort seating IMHO.. Also parking can be a little tricky. arrive early on a sat. night... or drive your scooter, you can lock up near the door, not many auto parking spaces.
A great place to bring a first date, Ive done it twice and both times the dates were very excited by the venue, the fancy drinks, the music, the decor, the people watching.
Always a good choice I would say definitely give it a try if you've never been.
UPDATE! they got rid of the awful chairs, so comfortable sitting for EVERYONE!!!! still, like misty said, try and get there early and grab the tiki hut. :)
