I was dragged out to first cabin bar on a saturday night. Â My friends older brother does not go out much but when he does, he likes to unwind here. Â We parked in the rear, next to the chase bank. Â Our group proceeded to enter the bar through the alleyway. Â I guess only "tourist" enter through the entrance on Huntington Dr. Â To each his own.
Don't get it twisted, this is dive bar. Â The bar might be small but offers cheap drinks and good live music. Â If you get hungry, you can always snack on their signature beef jerky. Â I passed on the jerky on this occasion. Â
Â
The band is called Pat O'Brien and the priest of love. Â They play blues and classic rock. Â The bar also has a designated smoking area in the rear but the smoke penetrates throughout the bar. Â If you prefer not to smell like smoke at the end of the night, make sure to carry the febreeze in your car. Â To my surprise the mens restroom was very clean. Â Â
The male bartender was good at serving up the stiff drinks and bottled beer. Â But the female bartender/barback was exceptional. Â She was taking drink orders, clearing tables, and holding conversation like nones business. Â
I am glad I made it out to Arcadia. Â The crowd is a bit older but don't let that discourage you from having a drink here. Â If you love classic rock, you will love the first cabin bar.
