clubbing in Key Largo ........


 We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our old late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo
 ( lyrics by Bertie Higgins - 1981 )



Opened in  1938 ..
a poor man's fishing retreat ..

the original property consisted of 
the bar and a small hotel  ...

In 1947, Warner Brothers used the bar as inspiration
 when writing the screenplay for the Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall film,
 Key Largo. It also served as a filming location for exterior shots in the film.
