I came across this odd bar last weekend. Frank-n-stein pub I didn’t go in but looks off the beaten path

I always thought "The Spot" at the top of McCulloch was a random place off the beaten path.

Ironically enough there's a lot of people that have beers in there (even though they don't have kids). Thane from Nordic has been known to have the occasional beer in there and grab a pizza on the way home.

I wasn't overly impressed with the food, so I don't go much, but have been meaning to give it a second chance.

No name is a cool little spot for sure..
No Name Bar and Desert Martini are our go to for Havasu dive bars.


So I’m in the spot right now and the locals are talking about going to the Frankenstein bar tomorrow because they have never been in there. Lol.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Stagger Lee's.
Now that's a dive bar.
Blondie's out that same way is actually pretty good.

He retired and handed it over and then it closed up. He was my neighbor when I first moved here. He missed the hustle and bustle of a city life and moved back to downtown San Diego to enjoy the people watching. As he put it.

I used to live out in desert hills and would hit both almost every night, and stearns when that was open

That place was The Best !!! In fact they had one here in north county San Diego too, so when the one opened in Havasu we were
instant regulars.
Funny, reading this thread and after being in Havasu for over 25 years I'm emotionally confused. I've never been to any of those places, although we drove past that Frank-n-Stein place the other day --- now Uncle Kennys, you bet, again regulars.
If I didn't know any better :confused: I'd be inclined to think all some of you do is eat and drink, LOL :rolleyes:
