“dark, sleazy w/ porn”

I love this place! It's a dark, small bar with an outdoor patio and a play area. I've hooked up every time I've gone.

“You must check this spot out”

I went there in November 2015. It's an interesting and great spot for late-night hangs.

“I like it”

I have been to this bar many times when visiting Key West. I admit I miss the old backroom, but the cage area they have now can be fun, not to mention the patio. Great anonymous hookups are so hot. Definitely can't wait to check it again on my next visit; this was the only bar in Key West where I found the sleaze I like.

“Old Kew West”

This place is what Key West used to be. In the new Key West there are a lot of gay pride flags and many gay-friendly places. What is missing is a place where gay men can just hang out with other gay men and relax. It is a side effect of how open Key West is. Because almost no one cares if you are gay and you can go to any club on the island, straight people want to come to the gay bars and enjoy themselves. For example, I just spent a week in Key West and every bar I went to but one was totally overrun with straight women. Someone even thought it was a good idea to have a bachelorette party at a gay club featuring gay dancers because they were so hot. I am glad that things are so cool that straight women are descending on the gay clubs. Okay, that is a lie. Please come have a drink at the bar, catch a drag show, but please do not take over the whole bar. Enter Saloon One, a cut back to the older side of Key West. It is a bit retro and in desperate need of a remodel. True, there are cruisers and it is not uncommon to find someone having a bit of fun on the pouch. But you will also find men who really want to spend some time with other gay men; most just want to drink a drink and have a laugh with other gay men. So when in Key West, please please visit Saloon One, have a few drinks and help keep this last little bit of the old Key West alive if for no other reason than we need a place for us.

“A Huge Disappointment”

Previous visits to this bar always promised a good crowd and a good time. Things have definitely changed. The place is basically empty except for Friday and Saturday nights, based on my recent stay in February. I tried it on Friday night when they were having contests for the best body parts and thought that would help bring in a crowd. Not really, unfortunately. There were more people there, but the contests were pretty lame with little participation from the people there. And worst of all, just as things did promise to start picking up, a woman came wandering through with her boyfriend and made it a point to examine any area where any guys were trying to have a good time. So sad that the last bar in Key West that was men only is not anymore. Be prepared for female companionship. If that is your thing, this is the place to be.
