How can you NOT dig a place that has redneck karaoke every Tuesday night? On my frequent travels to Mobile (and stays at the neighboring Hampton Inn) it's easy to head next door to Veet's for a cold beer and some local flavor. When I arrived here on a Tuesday evening for the karaoke night, I ran into some of the funniest entertainment around. I have never heard so many people sing so many depressing country songs in one night. The beer is cold, the people are friendly and the karaoke is depressingly funny on Tuesday nights. Go.
Review Source:I always feel totally at home when I walk into Veet's... the doorman is lovely and laid back and the bartenders are attentive.
If you're looking for some schmoozy spot don't go here, Veet's is a dive bar with a really local atmosphere and you get the sense that most people in there are regulars who are always friendly with the travellers that come in from the surrounding hotels. Its kind of dirty and old and dank and the walls are covered with photos of the regulars doing kinda shady things- but personally, that's what I look for in a bar!
My favorite thing about Veet's is probably the reasonably priced beer, and the pool table. They also have a karaoke night there (I think on Thursdays) but only go if you're a fan of singing that's so godawful it's awesome.
