Key West bars and saloons are where the island’s personality really comes alive. One minute you can be listening to afternoon live music with a cold drink in hand, the next you can be walking toward the harbor for sunset cocktails, then drifting back to Duval Street as the night gets louder, brighter, and more electric.

From legendary saloons and open-air music bars to waterfront hangouts, cocktail spots, dance floors, and late-night Duval Street favorites, every stop has its own rhythm. Some places are built for history and storytelling, some for live bands and barstool sing-alongs, and others for staying out late with friends after dinner.

Browse the Key West bars and saloons below to find the right place for today’s plans, whether that means live music, a historic bar crawl, sunset drinks, people-watching, tropical cocktails, or a full night out in one of Florida’s most famous nightlife destinations.
