About:Located on the sometimes-seedy Nebraska Avenue, the festive Keith's Bar is a refreshing gem. The bar caters to the gay and lesbian community who don't necessarily seek the wild nights of YBor's flashier clubs. Keith's down-to-earth, friendly staff and regular customers make any visitor feel at home. Every night, Keith's features cheap drink specials and hosts entertainment such as karaoke nights and adult male entertainment. Once you enter the lounge to find yourself surrounded by festive Christmas lights and fake palm trees, you'll fall in love with Keith's Bar.

    If you aren't one of the few bar flies that are considered "regulars", consider spending your money elsewhere. You will most certainly be ignored, requiring you to flag down the preoccupied staff for $4 bottles of water or other overpriced drinks that you so desire to order.

    Don't waste your money on their digital jukebox, as the staff will most likely listen to his friends and skip your song (think of it like the "Gay Gong Show") that you paid money to listen to. Or, better yet, turn off the jukebox to listen to a never ending maudlin mix of George Strait and Keith Urban off of one of the Staff's (or friend's) iPod.

    The decor is borderline seedy-smoky, with an emphasis on scarce but poor seating and corners filled with cobwebs. The lovely use of mirrors with gin advertisements from the 1970s is also predominately featured in the less-than-comfortable pool area with sofas and poor air conditioning. I'm sure, however, that the air conditioning died years ago after being coated with layers of carcinogens, much like the oscillating fans that are hung on the walls haphazardly...

    I'm being generous with 1 star. Consider that the star for "well, it's a gay bar...and not many other options in North Tampa..."
