This is my regular spot- great dive bar with a fantastic staff & great happy hour 1/2 price drinks. Tell Melissa or Mannen that you’re staying at Erin’s Airbnb & they’ll take extra special care of you!

Absolutely fantastic view of the city! Make arrangements ahead for a table or try just waking in like you own the place- that’s how I’ve had luck getting a table here! 😂There’s also a pool deck called the Cabana club on a lower level.
