It took 10 mins for my eyes to adjust to the dim lighting, but once they did, I realized I was in tiki-quirk-dive heaven. We started out on the tree-trunk stools, but quickly had to move to the bar. If you don't have Buns of Steel, avoid those things (trust me, having a big ass is not good enough).
Anyhow, clever STIFF drinks...cheap. Fantastic jukebox, and great bartender who I'm sure was imported from a far more awesome city.
We started out drinking around 3pm, and stumbled out later...surprised to find it was dark outside. WTH?? Frankie's is now officially my fave bar to have a mid-day drink, or four.
