Gonna be in KW Monday - suggestions for watching the game?

With Margarita in hand!!!!!!!

I would put my vote in for Lazy Gecko. Pretty much a sports bar, but I am not sure how good their Rita's are. And then there is always Big Un's.

Big Un's just got shut down, for about the third time in 4 months. Apparently they ain't too good at passing their health inspection. The Lazy Gecko would be a good place, there's also Jack Flat's on Duval street and The Sports Page on Greene street, which is probably where I'll end up watching the game. (Go UCONN!!!)

x2 on Lazy Gecko. Awesome place with great sandwiches and very good mudslides.

Had very bad service and food at Jack Flat's. Will never go back.

And the Lazy Gecko has much more of that "Keys" feel than Jack Flat's.

Have fun.

I hate that you had bad service and bad food at Jack Flats.

I guess I am not surprised about Big Un's. But then again, when I go to KW, I am not actually thinking about the food (still love ya SWB). And yes...Go UCONN!

The sandwich I had at the Gecko was pretty darn good!

I don't like to bash any place in the Keys, but we had a horrible experience at Jack Flats this past January. The waitress could have cared less if we were there or not, ignored us and was not friendly, which is rare in the Keys. I go to the Keys twice a year, and this is only the second bad experience I have had. But, if you want to look at many TV screens, Jack Flats is your place.

Lazy Gecko is awesome. We make it a point to stop on most of our Duval street walks and get some mudslides. We watched one of the NFL playoff games there this past January. Good food, friendly staff and cool atmosphere; especially if you can get one of the tables near the front by Duval.

Never been to Lazy Gecko, but on yours and Tig's recommendation, it will be a new place for me to try in November.

Love that place. Like I said, good sandwiches! It also doesn't hurt that it is a Red Sox bar.

My favorite bars are the Gecko, SWB, Kelly's (love the outdoor seating area). and any place Jack is working.

Yes on Bagatelle and Roof Top Cafe!

Cool. Hope you like it!!

Little tid bit. Many of the stores/hotels around Key West have business cards in them that you can pick up for bar specials/drinks. Look for the ones for Lazy Gecko. They are "buy one drink, get the second free". Use these cards for the mudslides!! You won't be sorry. There is a pile of these cards in the office of the Wicker Guesthouse, 913 Duval.

Pssst! No more Rooftop. I mean it's still a great place to go, I just don't work there anymore. Making enough at Bagatelle I only need one job.

Going up the steps wasn't the hard part.
