Aqua Bar and Nightclub

Incredible queens, great bartenders, perfect atmosphere.

I could not recommend this place enough. We got to see Faith, Jessica, and Maya and these queens put on a SHOW. Back-to-back numbers, for two solid hours, and never a dip in energy. Faith was a wonderful hostess, and all the queens were lovely and engaged with the audience every number. The bartenders both in club and out back were all very nice and very attentive.

We brought my mom here for her first ever drag show – she’s already looking for a reason to come back. If you have the time, see a show. If you don’t have the time, make some!

Our friends and I came here to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday and it was PERFECTION! We did have a slight issue with our tickets being double booked but the staff was so incredible and took care of us the whole night and we honestly had such an incredible experience! Our seats were perfect, the drinks were tasty but let’s face it, we were there for the queens! Faith Michaels was such a marvelous host and all of the pieces were highly entertaining! I also loved the spooky themes and decorations – it got us all into the Halloween spirit. It was also our friends first time to a drag show and we couldn’t have picked a better show! I will absolutely recommend anyone visit!

I went with a friend just for curiosity on a random Sunday. We were not charged to get in and we were able chose the table we wanted, drinks and service were good. I laughed non stop, the queens were very funny, we’re wearing great costumes and everybody was having a good time.

I gave 3 stars because I didn’t know and I didn’t like the fact that each artist went few times around the audience with a bucket collecting money, which kind of distracts. They have an ATM on site!

Ok, there’s no actual food to eat here. The back bar behind the club serves food. As for Aqua itself, If you’re the least bit homophobic, stay away. If you like drag queens, don’t mind having risqué fun, and don’t mind getting picked on by men dressed up as women, this is for you. The shows are hilarious and best when you go with a group. We usually see Bachelorette parties, or girls night out as well as some friendly groups of folks from every orientation. Last warning: don’t go if you expect to sit back in a corner and hide…they will only pay more attention to you!! Don’t worry, you won’t get molested, but you might have your shirt taken off if you’re a guy! Don’t worry about bringing Dollar bills. They have them there for you to exchange your larger currency.

Super fun! Reserve seats to get a good spot! Queens are hilarious and their different personalities really come through in their dress and dance style. The entire staff very good—efficient and friendly. Music is varied and lip synced. I rated this a three because the show overemphasizes tipping. Generous tipping is important in the service industry but it distracted from the show. 1/3 of the time the performers were out of sight as they walked/danced around collecting bills. And BTW, those tips are for the performers and not shared with the servers. There should be a better way to assure compensation. Nonetheless I recommend a visit as part of your Key West experience, particularly if you’ve never been. If you go, take a stack of singles, have fun and participate in the tipping process.
