Wow what a show! And over an hour! $15 if you book ahead or $20 at the door. The ticket booth guy was kinda rude but once you get upstairs the drag queens are so fun! They let us take pics with them after and were a blast. Highly recommend coming for their show! read more

As we walked closer to the front door of the 801 Bourbon Bar a 6'0 man with sizeable silicon boobs posed sexy for us and provided tickets to the cabaret show upstairs. The first floor had great music and strong drinks at affordable prices. Actually we have been here only a handful of times over the years and had fun, although never made it up to the cabaret. Definitely a bar for the open minded human. read more

We stopped here every night on our recent trip to key west. The ambiance is great and the music was enjoyable. One of the nights we went, they had karaoke. They have a show and 9 & 11 but we weren't able to check it out but heard it was good. Their drinks were really good too, especially the Peach on the Beach! But depending on which bartender made it, it would be a little different each time. read more

Prude people beware of this bar. Very fun place to hang out with strong drinks and sperm squirt gun games - really was. Met some other people here but did not watch the cabaret show upstairs. Took some pictures with the cross-dressers. Only had drinks here and not sure if they have a food menu. read more

The essential Key West vibes can all be found at this bar! This place is SO fun and lively, and they stay open late as heck. The bartenders are hilarious, friendly, and make great drinks. I didn't go to the upstairs cabaret, but the crowd downstairs was enough entertainment alone. This place is *not* family-friendly in the slightest, so reserve this cutie spot for your adults-only night out! read more

This guy knows how to read the room & entertain his guests. It was not even noon! Nice cool respite from the heat. Sweet tunes playing & he's a love. His name is Alvin read more

It was a different type of bar that I was experienced too but it was overall fun. The drinks are cold and is very vibrant atmosphere. read more

Everyone who is traveling to key west must stop at this bar and say hello to Alvin! He is the most amazing bartender! He was very friendly! I have NEVER SEEN A BARTENDER THAT WAS FUNNY AND ACCOMMODATING. He brought the crowds in and he talked to us and he was a great human being! Please please please everyone come in and tell Alvin hello. He's such a good guy. read more

I saw a Google review that said highly recommended so we popped in. It was $8 for a strawberry margarita that didn't taste like the liquor was tequila. It tasted like vodka. We also ordered a Grey Goose dirty martini, which tasted just okay. The bartender was friendly but working solo so was handling music, customers, bartending, and barback duties. Another employee embraced my husband with a bear hug from behind that was uninvited and unprovoked. Don't touch strangers, especially when COVID is still around. We don't like randos touching us. read more

Our last trip to Key West we had walked by 801 but it was so late we decided not to go and boy did we make up for it this time. We stopped into 801 for a drink midday during our honeymoon and I was hooked. The ambiance was amazing, the bartenders were so friendly (Alvin, we miss you in NC!), and the drinks were delicious! We went into 801 3-4 more times that week and 2/4 were for drag shows which were AMAZING. The performers there are so much fun, and so interactive. We went to one during the week which was pretty laid back, definitely a lot more chill and quiet. We then went to one the Friday before we left and it was BOOMING. Every chair in there was filled. There is a bar upstairs too which is nice because we didn't have to go back downstairs for drinks. We ended up sitting VIP on Friday and I can't even put into words how amazing the show was. This place is so inclusive (like the majority of Key West) and it was so calming and fun to be in a space where I knew I would be welcomed and accepted. We will definitely be back!! read more

We came here Thursday last week for the 9 pm show. Drinks were good, show was great. I loved the performers, energy was great. We had 1st timers with us that had a great time too. Really wished I loved closer- full time. read more

We had general admission for the "show". Purchased general admission tickets. When we arrived the host told one of the Queens where to seat us. Great seats but, we noticed a reserved maker on the table. I have no problem moving but instead of being "reseated" the host told (total rude ass) we had to move. I guess the drag industry doesn't know good customer service. One and done for us! read more

Happened to stumble into this amazing place. Service was amazing. Bartender was so incredibly friendly and inviting! Atmosphere was just as great. 10/10 recommend! Key lime pie martini was the drink to get! read more

We've stopped in a couple of different times on day trips to Key West. The place is a little divey. The bartender is nice enough. When we were there last time karaoke was happening. It was a small crowd so it was nice being out of the mayhem of some of the other bars on Duval. I don't think they gave food. We had fun and would probably stop back in the next time we are in Key West. read more

Great bar for everyone. Mix crowd great music and a great pool bar. The bartending staff is fun

This was the first bar we visited on my first visit to Key West, and it definitely didn't disappoint. I had a blast, especially with the waiters; they were fabulous. I even got to help one of them slip on their fancy sequined dress. They make you feel welcome and want to party with you. The ambiance was great, and everyone there was so friendly, even the other patrons. We had a blast. read more

You have to try the key lime martini. Alvin was out bar tender. Best time ever!! This bar is so much fun.

Another great vibe! Went here for our friends birthday pub crawl last night and had a blast. Wish we would have stayed for the drag show!

Busy Friday afternoon. Only one bartender who decided his job was to dance and entertain rather than serve drinks. After 15 minutes he forgot my order, asked again and I told him "whatever's easy" because I saw he was regularly having to consult the drink menu. Took my $20 and didn't bring change. 2nd bartender (maybe manager) showed up and had to replace paper in register, catch up with drink orders, etc. bar has a loud party vibe (which can be good) but what a mess!!! read more

I've never written a bad review in my life, but this made it necessary. I love LGBTQ+ bars because the atmosphere and service is always the best and most fun, but this was easily the worst and most rude service experience I've had in my life. My girlfriend and I walk in and sit down at the bar and for 20 minutes (no exaggeration, we checked the time) the two bartenders are showing each other videos and laughing while occasionally getting drinks for others. Eventually, the bartender comes up to us and asks "Are you good?" and I say light heartedly that we'd love a drink. He says he'll be right with us and then goes around for another 5 minutes to do other things. Finally he asks us what we want and I say "What's your cheapest beer?" and he says "We are NOT starting off that way." and walks off. We fully thought he was joking, but no he proceeds to gather drink orders from other people for over 5 minutes without any eye contact or anything. We eventually realize he was fully serious so we left. The man who served us had a brown beard and tattoos. Wow. What a disappointment. Went to 22s and had a 1000x better time, don't waste your time here! read more

One of the staples gay bars of Key West. The downstairs bar area is a good watering hole. It's also connected to One Saloon that is a way more uncensored and intimate and if that's more your tune... Service is pretty nice and friendly too! The drinks are pretty strong as well. They have drag shows upstairs for $20 that you can reserve as well! read more

Spanks On! If there was any themed vibe I would have from my Key West visit is that they love drag. Bourbon Bar is close to its competitor but seemingly not as upscale. Perhaps the Uptown ladies go one place and the others congregate here. In addition to the show, you can get some decent drinks. Any viruses lurking probably are long gone based on the overwhelming bleach odor, but in today's times it may just what the doctor would order. read more

Fabulous, Flirtatious & Fast Queens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 801 Cabaret was a hoot! The entertainment was campy, but fierce! These girls are no Pageant Queens.................THAT's a GOOD THING because it made for a much better experience! They lip-synced, twirled, interacted with the crowd and had some fabulous lines and jokes! This is a MUST if you want to experience a GREAT, upbeat, fun show! Remember to bring lot's of dollars as these ladies rely on tips to support their "couture" spending! Great Show Ladies! Keep it Real!!!!!! read more

This place is so fun !!! Great music and the bartender Christian is sooo fun , he lights this place up. It's always good to have great service and a fun bartender ! Thank you Christian . Hope to see you when we come back to the Keys read more

The service here (expect for the drag queens) was abysmal. The bar tender couldn't be bothered. The man admitting people to the drag show was just rude. I'm not straight. I didn't feel welcome here. It's frustrating, and I'm a bit hurt by the reception we got. I didn't need a red carpet, but basic respect was expected. The show down the street was much more accommodating. I never want to bring a LGBTQIA+ business down, but looking at some of the other reviews, it's clear something needs to be done. Young gays steer clear. read more

Well i was gonna go in. But when i complimented the thin blonde with the big hair in the black sequined gown, she was rude. I told the Queen she looked pretty and she rolled her eyes. I mean honestly i guess they hate working Duval street. Anyway just putting it out there that the Queens can be rude and shouldnt be especially when its your job to bring the people in.

We stopped in here over the July 4th weekend during happy hour. I had been to gay-centric Provincetown, MA countless times and ALWAYS wanted to go to a drag show, but never did. So when I saw the friendly drag queens outside, I was curious to see the free show they were advertising. We had our small dog with us and we were able to bring him in too! Bonus! We chatted with a few of the other friendly customers at the bar. Knocking off a star since this place allows smoking. :( I don't mind if someone smokes the occasional cigarette around me, but it was just TOO much with the amount of smoking going on here. We arrived about 20 minutes before the drag show began. The happy hour drink specials were good. We each had a frozen drinks for $5. I don't remember the details, but I think they did have some kind of good deal on one beer as well, so it's worth asking about. We stuck around to watch 2 of the drag queen performances. The guy that performed the Britney Spears song "Circus" was great and very animated. We also got a kick out of "Cher." I was very impressed by the makeup and outfits! This was a fun place to pop in for a bit and hopefully I'll check out another drag show sometime in the future! read more
