Red Piano Bar

I always have fun at Red Piano, especially if Christy is working the bar. When I worked in the First National Center and parked in the Santa Fe, I literally had to walk past it to get home, so it was a great place to stop for an afterwork aperitif.

Just as it was in the hotel's storied heyday during the first oil boom, in it's latest incarnation as one of the nicest hotels, and thus hotel bars in OKC, this is one of the best places to people-watch in OKC. It's always fun to try and spot stars in town for concerts, ball games or charity events.

It gets a little loud at times, but don't all bars? The last time I stayed at the hotel for a wedding, we pretty much closed down the bar, until I commanded the piano man, "Play me out to Tiny Dancer!!!" And he did, and I'll never forget it.

Nice bar in OKC Skirvin's hotel. On weekends there is music too -- not too loud so you can chat with your friends. Good selection of scotches, whiskey and bourbon. From my limited visits to OK, the best bars seem to be the ones in hotels...

I think I went to this bar last week... not sure...  but if it is the bar I went to last week
then it was pretty cool for a bar in the OKC.   I also saw the lead singer from
Color Me Bad there that night, he was fat, time has not been kind on that man.
