I was in Vegas last weekend and had a few hours to check out the stray Pirate, which just celebrated its first anniversary. Its tiki-adjacent as its a pirate-themed bar. The story is that the crew of a pirate ship was cursed by a sea witch who sunk their ship to the bottom of the sea and turned them all into dogs. The immersion is great. The bar is one room which serves as the cargo area of the ship. The back of the bar is all LED screens showing views out the side of the sunken ship. Portholes on the other side of the room show other scenes and the ceiling shows the sea above the grates covering the cargo area. The music was appropriate for the environment as well, a mix of some exotica, sea shantys, and other relevant tunes. The drinks were pretty good. I went with two off their "Spare the Sugarcane, Low-Sugar and Tart Cocktails" section, the Salty Sea Dog and the Siren's Seduction. The latter was my favorite of the two but they were both good. I bought one of their skull mugs for my collection and headed out. It was a Sunday afternoon and the place had enough people to feel occupied but it wasn't busy. I've heard that Friday and Saturday nights can be quite packed which is why I waited until Sunday. |
