Dive bar with bad attitude bartenders. Perfect hole in the wall with no food or pretentious tourists. Pool table and foosball. No smoking.

Just a couple of Bear in a Banana Farm!

Great bar! The whiskey is served at room Temp! Like a perfect room Temp! Truly amazing. Most beers have just the right amount of Raygroan scrappings, which is a south florida treat. The wide array of Gender Identities between the two Male bartenders is wonderful. With the Older one you get a nice nelly queen butch poly bi curious and the Younger lad is mostly definitely non binary gender fluid fa'afafine. Once we find a new chatter chalk supply the bar couldn't get any better !

a bottle of alcohol

I've been coming here since the 70's when I got tiired of only drinking beer at "MOTHERS" and came here for a decent liquor drink. This is a true MEETING place (not a MEAT place). I remember when HARRY actually WORKED as a bartender. When the BANANA FARM finally opens again I will be one of the first(if not THE FIRST customer) to order a cold beverage!!!

Cheers!!

It brought me back to my childhood. We were greeted by a very tall guy and looked like the manager. He was so much fun and really, really nice and then our server Sarah, came over. She was a hoot and a half made some suggestions, told us what to get these were her favorites and it was a home run ball hit out of the park.. We started with the pretzel and the bear cheese. Absolutely delicious, the pretzel was very light and the bear cheese had so much flavor to it. Three of us got burgers that were absolutely mouthwatering you bite into it and you went. oh yes, one bite burger!! This is the place to go. My girlfriend got a grilled chicken sandwich. It was absolutely delicious and the chicken she said was seasoned perfectly. Just sitting there, looking all around, brought us back to our childhood the antiques on the ceiling on the wall on the table every direction was so much fun. If I could give this place 10 stars are 100 stars I would do it. We cannot wait to go back. Thank you, Sarah we will ask for you when we go back. you were fabulous. See you all soon XOXO Andrea.

We ordered burgers (big and tasty!) and the pulled pork sliders on pretzel buns with beer cheese--fantastic. Daniel was the sweetest.

There's a dog at the bar and as I walked in the door, they were escorting a cat outside of the bar. Now we all know the restrictions of having a liquor license. It's very unsanitary. They're not service animals and were not presented as such when I asked. @$8 for a Jack and 7 it's ridiculous! I asked for a brandy and seven which they said they don't have brandy so I asked for a jack and Sprite. She grabbed a tall glass and I asked for a short so she gave me a glass that they call a shot glass in here. It was a 4 ounce glass and when she started a pour, she said she could only fit half the liquor in it with a little bit of Sprite to give me where I asked for what would cost me the same price. I asked her then to put it in a tall glass and just don't put as much spray. She did, but it still tasted like a normal mixed drink with a lot of Sprite at eight dollars in a dive bar at 7:15 pm. She didn't want to agree anything of what I was saying for accommodate me with the lack of liquor in the drink. She explained that the bar was just taken over a couple years ago so it's changed. Probably might have. It's the same disgusting floor, ceiling, bathrooms, and moldy ceiling tiles as always!

The bartender was easy to talk to and gave a couple suggestions without making it feel like a sales pitch. Both dishes came out pretty quickly even though the place started filling up during happy hour. The bruschetta had a nice mix of sweet and savory, and the avocado toast was fresh without being overly dressed up. I liked the overall pace of the service since nobody rushed me to order more once I finished eating. It felt like a comfortable place to unwind for a bit instead of a loud crowded spot where you're trying to leave right away.

Service was also very slow, even when it wasn't busy. Everything took longer than expected and seemed disorganized. On top of that, the bartender was rude and unwelcoming. I was also charged for another person's drink without being asked or informed; which was unacceptable and felt careless. The staff seemed "blind" to how to properly run a restaurant. For the prices being charged, I expected much better food, service, and attention to detail. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

Very disappointing and unacceptable experience at Mary Lou's in West Palm Beach…read more The prices were already extremely high, and then the final bill included an added 5% operational fee on top of an automatic 20% gratuity. For a restaurant at this price point, these charges should be clearly explained before the bill arrives, not left as an unexpected surprise for customers. The restaurant was also uncomfortably cold throughout the entire evening, which took away from what should have been an enjoyable dining experience. What was most upsetting, however, was the treatment by the bouncer. He was rude and physically shoved me without any reason. No customer should ever be handled in that manner. It was inappropriate, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable. For the amount charged, I expected a much higher level of service, transparency, and respect. Instead, the evening felt overpriced, uncomfortable, and hostile. I will not be returning and would strongly encourage management to address both the hidden fees and the conduct of their staff.

Sophisticated, over-the-top, stylish, swanky, expensive, with a strong exclusiveness that radiates…read moreas you enter the inner sanctum that is the bar and dining lounge, Mary Lou's is an experience. You may experience it once, or multiple times, depending on how comfortable you are with strictly valet parking and, in particular, the Palm Beach prices, but the food, the cocktails, and the service are on point. For as long as I have lived in the West Palm Beach area, the building that now houses Mary Lou's was a bait-and-tackle store with a respectable craft beer selection. The structure has been in existence since at least the 1960s, by my knowledge, and the owners of what has become Mary Lou's have kept the exterior aesthetic to make it appear like an old but unassuming store on Southern Boulevard, but once you're inside, you realize you're in a completely different universe. Once you valet your car and walk inside, you're greeted by ship-like, polished wooden walls and intimate lighting as you head to the greeting desk to check in. Yes, please reserve a table in advance. Once checked in, you're escorted through a set of doors into a darkened hallway before a circular, circus-like lounge area and bar appear that radiates 70s vibes, not too far from what you may watch on the show Palm Royale from Apple TV. After being escorted to our table, we enjoyed a myriad of lovely cocktails and small and large bites with excellent service. I enjoyed cocktails such as the Olive Ave and Old Soul: the former was a filthy martini made with love and understanding, the latter was a bourbon-based powerhouse with applejack, Barenjager, and mango. I also ordered off the menu and enjoyed a Paper Plane and an Old Fashioned. Both were fantastic bourbon cocktails that the bar made well. The Beef Carpaccio Salad was wicked good with the goat cheese brulee and pine nut butter, while the maple pork belly skewers were solid. The crispy octopus was excellent with the fav bean puree, while the grilled lamb chops were piquant. The Banana Creme Brulee for dessert was very good, shaped like an actual banana with a chocolate shell that evoked Andy Warhol. Everything we were served was meticulously prepared and exquisitely delicious. The service was prompt and accommodating. We rarely waited long for drinks, for additional items off the menu, the bar accommodated us well with different drink selections -- we were a party of six and didn't have delays per my observation. The drawbacks are pricing and exclusive valet parking. Most cocktails run at least $20, and the small and large bites are priced between $30 and $45, with some slightly lower and some slightly higher. You can easily spend $75 to $100 before tip. Therefore, this serves as either a special-occasion spot or a regular-occasion spot for those who can afford it -- definitely Palm Beachy in that regard. The on-site parking spots for Mary Lou's are reserved for valet; self-parking is not readily available, as I have observed. If you're concerned about valet parking, consider either coming with a large group and carpooling or using Uber. After 10 PM at least on Saturdays is when the lounge turns into a dance club with the lights darkening, the spotlights shining, reflecting off the mirror bar, with dancers and DJ spinning music. It can be a lot of fun to take part if you make a reservation at the right time to experience both sides of the establishment.
