| - Mickie Finnz is my downtown "Home Base". Since the downtown scene is so exciting, it is good to have a place where everyone knows you. Well, not everyone.
I mainly go here late night on the weekends. The main draw, for me, is the live music and it is exceptional with high marks to my fav, All the MadMen. The area in front of the stage serves as a dance floor and the servers will clear out tables if you want to dance.
The theme is a Pacific, beachy-surfer hang out. I assume Pacific for the tikis and palm thatched overhangs.
There are both indoor & outdoor dining. Also, uniquely, it is kid friendly. There is no smoking in the establishment, but they do provide smoking areas just outside the main door. The outdoor dining is divided into a couple areas, some regular tables with full view of the stage that is separated from the main dining area by folding, glass doors which are typically, fully open. The other area has a fire pit, more table seating and the "patio" bar. If there is a band playing and you want to have a conversation, this area is your best bet.
Food-wise, I typically only get appetizers and really enjoy the bucket of fries. They have daily drink specials and you can use certain apps to get half-off a signature cocktail, each visit.
Additionally, there is a "claw" machine, that, for $2, if you can catch a lobster, they will cook it for you for your $2 Lobster Dinner. You gotta read the fine print, I suppose.
Cocktails, well, I am not well versed in the sweet drink category, but I do order MaiTais, Margaritas, and have been known to share either of their "fishbowl" drinks, the Big Wave (contains Red Bull) or the Biggest Blue Hawaiian. These are an exceptional value at $20 for a 64oz drink and pretty tasty, too.
Here is a direct link to their menu:

The service i experience is almost always very good. Partly because I am a regular, I am sure.
My bottom line, the staff is friendly, the drinks are good (and can be cheap), and the live music is amazing. I recommend it as super casual, night-time hang out, especially on the weekends.
