    I lived in Key West as a Cat Marine Mechanic, single and straight on a 28 ft sloop 1977 to 1984. There was no Hogs Breath Saloon at the location but the Key West Tee-shirt shop! The Hogs Breath started business in 1988. The sign says est 1976 but that was when the tee shirt shop started. The Green Parrot was a dive back then that the locals went to have a beer without the tourist around. Their Tee-shirts said "See The Lower Keys On Your Hands And Knees" ! The Hemingway look alike contest is always held at the present Sloppy Joe's and Jack Waterberry won the 1986 contest. Mel Fisher frequented the Half Shell Raw bar and not very often the Schooner Wharf Bar! I know because I knew Mel and Pete Poppes his engineer as I worked on his boats! Key West was a sleepy town when I arrived in 77 with a laid back attitude that I loved, BUT when the tourist business went wild, IT RUINED Key West! I recommend staying North of Key West in a Mom & Pop motel and get a skiff with an outboard to knock around. Then drive to Key West to get the tourist bug over with. I now live in Lake Tahoe.

      I'm not a big fan of Key West, it's too expensive. And with no natural sand beaches, it kind of just a drinkers town. The upper Keys are more interesting to me. I enjoyed reading how things use to be.

      @@VolcanoTimeLapse Well, I just had a great breakfast at the Red Hut a Lake Tahoe locals favorite! I recommend the Red Hut Rosti which is hash browns with ham/bacon/red pepper/onions and cheese all grilled together. I always have two sunny side up eggs on top as well. total cost with a never ending cup of hot chocolate with tip was $16.75. So now that I made you hungry, if you ever make it here you will have a great place for breakfast at least. I also recommend staying in the Southern end of Lake Tahoe as it is much cheaper as the Northern half have raised noses. The summers are fabulous with maybe a week of over 85 F temps. There are hundreds of great hiking trails. I left FL and am over the Caribbean as well that I have been there done that.

    Brass Monkey (That funky Monkey) in Marathon, Coconuts and No Name Pub on Big Pine Key are 3 more dive bars that are mostly locals only.
    Back in the 90's and early 2000's, Clarence Clemons from the E-Street Band used to show up and play from time to time. They also have one of the biggest gatherings--Christmas in July, and New Years in July a week later. There is so much drinking that Monroe County sets up sobriety checks on US1 and pauses almost every driver.

      @@thenewsdudeabides yea, my brother took me to no name for the first time last june, he is still a "local" in west palm where we grew up, so he knows some local spots.. he has a boat we trailer sometimes, but we just did the tourist trip in june, and had so much fun. played golf in marathon, and my first time actually going to key west. the tourist trip with some bridge fishing and actually playing golf was so much fun, we are actually doing it again NEXT WEEK!!
      I will check out your 20 more video, and hopefully check out another new place you pointed out in your vids! so much fun!! thanks!

    MM 68 in Layton, The Florida Boy Bar and grill offers Florida's best Chicken and Waffles and the coldest beer in the keys. Tucked nicely into the Lime Tree Bay Resort's parking lot, beach swings, and pool and hot tub will make your rvening complete after a game of corn hole... Try it out!!

    just after Alabama Jack's, first bar at Key Largo is Gilbert's...is that not in business anymore? We used to call it Tiki Bar hopping from Homestead AFB down into the keys. Cool video...cheers

      Can't recall what we ate but in multiple visits we remember the Blue Heaven food to be good. We did have the Key Lime Pie. Hugely high whipped cream.

    Do any of them have AC for when you want to take a break from the heat ?

      Sorry. Missed this. Morada Bay has indoor AC. Most are outdoors.

      @thenewsdudeabides  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Love No Name. Didn't detour off Route 1 this time but agree with you that it's aces. Others have alerted me that I skipped their favorites too. I will undertake to fix that next trip.
