801 Bourbon Bar

Had an amazing time here, one of the best shows I have seen in a long time!! Wanted say a great big "Thank You" to Corey the bartender, he was truly outstanding and a lot of fun!

Ahh, drag shows...my guilty pleasure. Yeah that's me in the corner with the sunglasses and hoodie on praying that no one sees me. Yeah right... I'm always front row!!!! I have seen quite a few but when our waitress at the restaurant we dined at recommended 801 Bourbon for an after dinner treat, we decided that we had to go.

I wasn't expecting much from the setup but the opening host/ess (not sure what to form to write) made me laugh so hard that I knew I was in the right place. Very vulgar, I like it!

Sushi was the opening act and I presume the owner of the establishment and boy did she put on a show! Such a personality she has. Definitely rocked the place. If I'm ever in the keys again, I will for sure stop by!

Didn't get a chance to try out the downstairs bar.  Only reason we went here is because one of the drag queens chatted us up as we were walking by.  My wife was so intrigued that we came back an hour later for the 11:00pm show.  $10/person and you head upstairs.  It was very different for me but entertaining in some ways.  The room was already crowded when we got there around 11:30 so we grabbed a seat way in the back.  The bartender was very attentive and came over to us to get drink orders. Had a Jack and Coke and wife had a water which came out to $7.00 so not cheapo but not terrible.

The queens sing (lip-sync to songs), dance, tell jokes, and even do shots with customers on-stage who are celebrating birthdays, weddings, graduations, etc.  There appeared to be regulars there.  Folks throw money on stage like a strip club and the dancers regularly come by with a tip bucket.
