Bourbon St Pub

Key West


A celebratory crowd, great DJs and striking male dancers (who shimmy on top of the bar from 10pm onward) keep the party going at this iconic spot on Duval St. The garden bar in back, with pool and Jacuzzi, is open to men only, and occasionally hosts clothing-optional afternoon parties.
