Description

Built in 1851 as an ice house and morgue, this historic saloon operated as the original Sloppy Joe's Bar during the 1930s before taking its current name in 1958. Today, the space pairs its colorful past with live music, a cozy interior, and an eclectic decor where walls are draped in business cards, dollar bills, and bras. A famous pirates' tree grows directly through the roof, while outside traditions include attempting to chuck a quarter into the mouth of a mounted fish positioned fifteen feet up with your back turned.
