We went to bourbon street pub around 6 on a Friday. Initially the bar looks like a hole in the wall. The windows are big and open and there's a mirror. There's a small hallway to another bar area that was closed. The real magic is the outside. They don't have a many craft beers. The outside is huge. It's partly a motel. There's another bar, a decent size pool, tons of seating, and a stage. I believe the pool party was earlier. It was also winter. This would be a fun place to see filled! read more

We actually stopped in because they were having karaoke! The DJ, Jeff, remembered us from a different place he was hosting. The place was lively, the crowd was good and we had a great time! There was even a man with his pug, sitting together at the bar! read more

We had the best bartender. He was so nice and made us great drinks. We were pleasantly surprised how affordable our tabs were when we cashed out. Much lower than other places we had been stopping at while on vacation. read more

2 members of our party were roofied at the back bar. Locals told us the next day that this is a common occurrence and that this is their reputation. Beware and be vigilant. read more

With live entertainment, friendly strippers and a mostly male crowd, this gay-owned and operated pub opened in 1995 and it's one of the most popular gay bars in the city. This Pub is basically a New Orleans themed gay bar in Key West. Here you'll find regular drag performers, strippers, clothing optional/male-only garden bar with a pool and a jacuzzi. Every night the 'Men Of Bourbon' get their kit off and prance around for your amusement. Private lap dances are also available. Key West is, of course, a legendary gaystination and Bourbon St. Pub is in the heart of the action. It's a good location to see and be seen. The Bourbon also hosts popular New Year's Eve parties as well as themed parties and weekly pool parties. The dropping of the "shoe" with a famous drag queen is a New Year's eve tradition in the city. Friendly staff and bartenders. read more

I had a great time hanging out, at the outside bar. Bryan made amazing drinks and was a pleasure having a conversation with. He even offered to watch my $10 watch while I went for a swim in the pool. He has spent time living in Europe, so he understood were I came from. If I make it back to Key West he will make me come back to Bourbon Street Pub. T hank You. Claus read more

It's fun but now the drinks are overpriced . Used to be a great locals bar kind of turned into a tourist trap

Really loved this bar! Went there as part of a friends birthday pub crawl and had a blast. The music was so fun and the bartender was so friendly and went above and beyond for us! read more

I absolutely LOVE this bar! I was here in November of '24 and the vibe was unmatched. A totally welcoming atmosphere with killer drinks! I enjoyed coming back multiple times during my vacation to see Bria and EVERY bartender balanced excellent service with being extremely personable. Can't wait to come back time time I am in paradise! read more

Bourbon Street Pub is a lot of fun. I've always enjoyed stopping by here while in the Keys. In the main part of the bar is the dance area which sometimes you'll find dj's or lounge singers playing / singing your favorite tunes. There are two large bars to sit and relax at. Or maybe you'll meet a new friend? As you walk through the bar you'll enter the back yard. The back yard area has another bar, a pool, hot tub and large stage area. It also houses plenty of seating and is perfect for social distancing. Typically there is a happy hour with BOGOs. The pool and hot tub are clothing optional. Women are welcome to the bar, but they are not permitted in the back bar since it's a men's clothing optional area. This bar is connected to the New Orleans House which is a gay men's resort so that is also why women are not able to get into the back area. The drinks are cheap, usually around $6. They are strong too so even better, right? I've always found the staff here to be friendly and honestly, the patrons are too. Always are able to find a nice person to chat with while you're there. This place is kind of a judgement free sort of bar where you're able to truly relax and enjoy yourself and what's better than that? read more

Loved this place! We stumbled upon this place by noticing their sign for Keylime coladas. The Keylime colada was the best we had ever had! The drinks were amazing!! Every mixed drink we had was made very well (also strong). The bartender was very attentive and made sure everything was perfect! The vibe of the place was very welcoming. They also had lots of TVs that were playing football if that's your thing. Overall a great place to stop by and have a drink or two! read more

Bourbon Street Pub - Margarita and Keylime colada - Gay Bars Near Me - Key West, Florida

Pre-Covid, this was one of Florida's most fun gay bars. These days, the experience is marred by a terrible music act, every night until midnight. A middle aged karaoke enthusiast sings his favorite hits off tune and much too loud. Drunk women woo in delight. But, for everyone else, it's just a bad karaoke night without the fun of variety or watching your friends perform. If you visit, make sure to push through to the outside bar where the bartenders are great and the crowd is relaxed and friendly. read more

Our group wanted to explore the vibe of the Bourbon Street Pub. I laughed when two of my team asked if I was ok to go. I was the straight chap...appreciated their respect and was received with great music and people. Great drinks with a fantastic opportunity to enjoy the pool/hot tub. Heavily-poured drinks and friendly service. Reminded me of a great Nyack, NY venue. Diversity and inclusiveness at its finest. read more

This is a great place if you're a single gay man feeling a little, dare are say it, trashy? It's a rough group of trade parked out front having cocktails. If you venture towards the back where there's a warning sign which puts you on clear notice that no one in the back is wearing clothes. Beware. We ventured into the back and sure enough the bartender was stark naked. As were numerous patrons in the pools and spas. I'm certainly not a prude but this is where I draw the line. I need to see someone that can I'll do that when I get home. read more

Nice atmosphere when there was a vocalist up there. Depending on your interests dictates when you want to go, the later in the evening the saucier it gets. The crowd was friendly, but I was with locals so I'm not a good judge of the actual friendliness. Being a lady I don't have access to all the nooks and crannies of this gentlemen focused establishment. read more

Ben was dismissive and a little rude. I just wanted a drink. I mean it is a bar, right?! Had Bryan earlier and it was such a different experience. I felt put off. read more

Great place! Bartender Bryan is fantastic. The entertainment is really good too. In the best location on Duval Street .

I'm extremely disappointed to share that my friends and I had a horrible experience at Bourbon Street Pub. We visited as a group of LGBTQ+ individuals, including three women and several gay men. Unfortunately, the evening took a turn for the worse when we were asked to leave. The reason given was shocking and disturbing: apparently, some of the gay male patrons, who were paying top dollar, had complained about our presence. The bar staff informed us that the reason for our removal was solely because we were women. I've never experienced such blatant hatred and discrimination towards women, and it's truly disheartening. As we were leaving the rude bouncer also made comments about us being ugly and poor (very false). As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I expect more inclusivity and respect from establishments that claim to be welcoming and supportive. Unless Bourbon Street Club takes steps to address and rectify this issue, I would strongly advise against visiting this establishment. Actually I wouldn't even give this place another chance - it was by far the worst experience ever. read more

Love this place good entertainment and the best bartender Bryan who was bartending the bar in the back by the pool is the best

Stopped by during a Tropical Heat. Didn't realize that they hosted one of the largest parties of the weekend out back. The front is like a typical gay dive bar with decent drinks and a gogo boy. Outback, they have a pool, hot tub, cabanas and another bar. The bartender out back wasn't very nice at first but he warmed up throughout the night. I would go back for an event. read more

Bar tenders were cunts. Just because the guy in front of me was ass doesn't mean you had to be. But we'll be back because it's the only option. Cheers! read more

It was our first time visiting Key West and we loved Bourbon Street Pub! We stopped here on two separate occasions, during the day and evening. Hardy was our bartender both times and he was so welcoming and entertaining. His version of a Key Lime Colada was scrumptious. Thank you so much Hardy! We WILL be returning. ‍ read more

We had the best time here Hardy B was the most amazing bar tender His mojitos are "kick ass"! I literally had trouble drinking a mojito from somewhere else afterwards. Great atmosphere, we came on a cruise so were only in town for the day, but want to come back to stay Highly recommend read more

Bourbon Street Pub - Gorgeous! - Gay Bars Near Me - Key West, Florida

It's a gay bar, one with swim suit clad go go boys (mostly overly tattooed and more the cute but picked out the street gutter than professional dancer types) prancing around on top of the bar. When Key West has event weeks or event weekends, it can really get hopping, attracts a good fun loving crowd, but on ordinary off season nights, sort of a divey bar with an overabundance of alcoholics and drunks. It's one of those places that sort of all depends upon the time in which you hit it, hence it can easily range from a One Star "No way, get me out of here" type of joint to a Four Star "Hey! I like it" place. However, as this type of bar goes and though it may be one of the better of the very few remaining and very rapidly dwindling gay venues left in the now gentrified Key West, I've can only go Two Stars since I've certainly seen a lot better. read more

Absolutely love this place. We went every day we were in Key West. The staff (especially Briana, Nick, Jeff, and Claire) were amazing. The place felt like home. I love that they make frozen drinks. The pool and hot tub were nicer than at the condo we stayed in. Make sure you visit when Nick is DJing and dancing, he was so much fun! read more

The waitress with the Curley brown hair treated my wife and sister very rudely. She also refused to give us her name so I could include her in this review. We wanted to come in and get a drink or two and they needed to use the bathroom. She proceeded to tell them "where do you think you're going".. "you can't use the restroom unless you spend $100". We very well may have spent more than that but not with her service. Do yourself a favor and go to one of the many other bars in key west. read more

Cody is a HUGE ahole. I walked in and he was alone at the back bar. I said "are you open back here"? He said "no, I'm just here for my health". He told us we were taking too long to order even though we were the only people there, then discriminated against us because we weren't gay in a gay bar. He told us "you're in a gay bar, I suck penises". Do you come in a non gay bar Cody?!? Are you discriminated against?? Fun fact ... many of us in our group have gay family members .. we don't discriminate against you so don't do the same to us! It's no wonder that no one was at your bar when we walked in. read more

The female bartender is the worst we have encountered in KW. Unfortunate as we have loved this bar.

We stayed at the New Orleans house last week for three days. We spent our evenings at the Bourbon St Pub Garden bar and had the best time. Our Bartenders, Rhett, Tim and Jeff helped to make this a Great time. Great drinks and conversation!! Thanks Guys. read more

Let me start this off by saying that I completely understand the difficulties of operating during our current situation. However, customer service is severely lacking here. I walked in to this bar (one I've visited many times previously) and essentially asked what one has to do to get a beverage and consume it on the premises. I was told by the main bar bartender that if I purchased a slice of pizza from the business next door, I was more than welcome to drink at Bourbon Street. So, I did just that... when I returned with my delicious slice of pizza the same bartender offered me the option of either being served indoors, or on the patio. I indicated that I would prefer to eat/drink on the patio as I've always been wearing face coverings indoors as directed by local health officials. The bartender suggested that I take a seat on the patio (which was almost vacant apart from a table or two being occupied) and that I would be served there. I sat down, caught glances from the bartenders on the patio bar, however even 20mins into slowly nibbling on my slice of pizza no one payed me any attention. I finished my slice of pizza and left. When I was asked by the main indoor bar bartender "how my night was" I relayed the chain of events to him, he seemed appalled and just said that he "was sorry" I think the main takeaway here is that if you're not prepared to operate your business within the realm of our "new normal" and take care of your customers, with established processes... you really should shut down until you can operate as you wish. This was a very disappointing experience. read more

THIEVES. I stopped in for a couple of beers while visiting KW and in addition to the initial charge, a second charge for $50 was fraudulently added to my credit card. I attempted to speak with the manager by phone (as I'm traveling and can't go in personally) and was cursed at. The jerk on the other end of the line refused to connect me, then abruptly hung up on me. After contacting my cc company, I contacted the police and filed fraud charges. DO NOT TRUST THESE THIEVES. read more

Good place for a few drinks and a great place to watch half naked men dance. (Not my thing) but it was an experience. Stay out of the back bar. The guy tried shorting my partner $80 change. We stood there waiting...the guy looked up and knew immediately why we were waiting! SHADY AS HELL! We went back a few days later...for NYE and it was mobbed. Still a great place! read more
