The drinks are yummy and so is the hottie bartender Laura. She's just the sweetest. She recommended a fan favorite for a cocktail and I must say, it was delish.

Clean, laidback spot with excellent service from the bartender. There's pool tables, darts, and a small couch lounge area as well. Not sure why it's rated so low

Why did it take me this years old to realize what amazing tiki drinks Castaways has?!?! I strongly feel this is the most underrated bar in town. $12 gets me a Mai Tai that is hands-down the best...

Super cool dive bar! Cheap well drinks, friendly locals, and two pool tables. The waitress was very friendly as well!
