Great first experience in Key West!
We tried this place for the first time last night and it was a fantastic experience. It’s a very characteristic saloon, pure American style, with license plates and stickers covering pretty much every free inch of the walls — super authentic and fun.
The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive. We arrived just as the kitchen was about to close, but they still seated us without any hesitation. They took our order very quickly and also gave us great recommendations on what to eat and which beer to try, which we really appreciated.
The service was fast, friendly, and well-organized. The food was good, classic American menu with burgers and mac & cheese, exactly what you want in a place like this. The beer was excellent — especially the one on tap recommended by our waitress, really good and quite unique.
It was a bit noisy, but there was live music, which actually made the atmosphere even better. The vibe was lively, cheerful, and relaxed, making it a very enjoyable place to spend the evening.
Prices are absolutely reasonable considering the location in Key West.
Definitely recommended — we’d happily come back!

We stopped by Hogs Breath Saloon in Key West and sat at the outside bar, which had a great laid-back vibe and is a fun spot to people-watch on Duval Street.
Unfortunately, the service didn’t match the atmosphere. Our bartender, Stephanie, wasn’t very welcoming or friendly, which took away from the overall experience. The burger was also pretty basic — not bad, just nothing memorable compared to what you expect in Key West.
This place definitely has potential because of the location and vibe, but better service and more standout food would make a big difference.

Ever since I was a teenager I’ve had this yellow Hog’s Breath Saloon t-shirt that I thought was very funny…”Hog’s breath is better than no breath at all.” I’ve cherished it and kept it in good condition. It never dawned on me that I could actually visit this mythical place in real life. So I just forgot about it. For 45 years. And then this year we thought why not go someplace warm during the winter for a vacation? I hear the Keys are nice, let’s go there. So we do our research on things to do, places to go, hotels to stay at and I discover there’s a Hog’s Breath Saloon in Key West!!! What??? You mean I can go there? Yes, Virginia, there IS a Santa Claus! And he’s at the Hog’s Breath Saloon in Key West, Florida. This became a pilgrimage for me. When we drove onto the island I suggested we stop here and there before we hit the bar, and my boyfriend was like “NO. We are going straight to the saloon. We are not taking any chances of getting sidetracked and missing this.” We get closer and closer to it and we’re in this kind of parking lot and I’m looking all around for it and…where is it? Is it this building with almost no signage that looks like a garage in a parking lot? We walk around the building and finally find a sign and realize that we’re in the right place! So it’s even better than I imagined. I’d seen the live cams of the interior so I kind of knew what that would look like, but I didn’t think it would be a total dive bar. And I’m so glad it is! I love it there. If I ever became a bartender, that’s where I would want to work. We had two beers and soaked up the atmosphere, and talked to some nice tourists. We didn’t sample the food so I don’t know what the vegan options are, if there are any, but the tourists we spoke to said their food was really good, even though what they ordered was not vegan. I spent a long time in the gift shop trying to decide on what to buy and noticed they don’t have the yellow shirt that I have from the 70’s, which makes it unique and worth about $50 today (plus mine is from the original location in Fort Walton Beach). So I got a red one instead, and my boyfriend bought me a black jacket. I purchased their seasoned salt as a gift for my brother for watching our house while we were gone. He loves salt. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the Keys (I go to one place, see the heck out of it and then have no need to ever go back) but man, this is one place I’d consider going back to just to hang out and die there. The next morning I tuned into the live cams to see what was happening and saw a chicken resting on the stage! Such a cool place even the chickens want to stay all night.

I’m basing this review off of service and atmosphere as I didn’t have any food. The atmosphere was super great, just a dive bar in the middle of the ruckus and they had a live band playing as well that was way better than I was expecting. The staff and service was great and I didn’t feel like I was competing to get a drink from the bar.

Typical dive bar!! Live music. We sat at the bar & the bartender was great. Being from Missouri not sure why we ordered the Whole Hog BBQ Nachos, but I was impressed. Drinks were fine! (The picture added we already dove into)

We stopped there to have a drink and check out the local vibe. The menu contained a sampling of local “Bar Food”. The server was cheerful and took good care of us. My beer was ice cold and my wife’s drink was delicious. There was a party atmosphere and live music. This is a fun place with lots of local flair.

Stopped here after catching the sunset based on the reviews. The service was severely lacking and almost walked out since we sat there for quit some time before the server came. The food was basic dive bar good with pricey drinks. Definitely a one and done for me.

2025 Key West Caravan with Central Florida Corvette Association (CFCA) friends – we come every year. Last year the restroom were great so we had to return and share with others. We had a mid-day drink and the returned with the group after the sunset at Mallery Squar and it was great.. Great Food, Great Service, and Great Atmosphere.

Hog’s breath has a grungier biker feel and had an older crowd, the band was tight playing a classic rock and blues. Great atmosphere.

If you are visiting in Key West – Hog’s Breath Saloon should be put in your itinerary of places to visit. I have been here at least a dozen or so more times. It is completely laid back, away from all the craziness on Duval Street. When you walk in it is completely unpretentious but full of personality. Just cold beer , strong drinks and live music.
Food Wise, it is what you what expect, Bar Type Food – all good. Hog’s Breath Saloon has a nice outdoor area that is where you will find Local Bands performing. The Gift Shop has all the Fun Touristy Clothing you can purchase.
Hog’s Breath isn’t trying to impress anyone, and that’s exactly why it does. It has that authentic, no-frills character that is increasingly rare—and in Key West, it fits right in.
This place has been in business since the late 1980’s, and there is a reason for that.
