Definitely, one of a kind place full of artsy displays. If you do get offended easily, you should probably avoid reading the signs all over the place. The people working here are super nice and friendly. Went there few times, the most entertaining was Wednesday karaoke night. I had a blast watching other people sing. The vibe at this place matches the people's vibe of the island. Everyone is nice, friendly and just trying to have a good time. So I would def. be back and enjoy it.

Eclectic Charm

This bar is a true hidden gem, brimming with eclectic charm and oozing with personality. From the moment you step inside the huge tent, you’re greeted with a vibrant mishmash of décor—think college frat house meets homeless encampment with a collage of signage and flair on the walls. The atmosphere is both laid-back and exciting, the perfect blend of escape from reality and booze. Its open concept makes it really arid and exposed to the elements.

The staff is amazing. Even on a busy Saturday night of cranking out drinks, they were still engaged and laughing & joking with everyone. I would highly recommend dropping in to experience Tom’s Burned Down Cafe’. We have never really seen anything like it.

If you’re looking for a place with character & cool vibes, this is the spot. It’s the kind of bar that leaves a lasting impression—unique, quirky, and full of heart.

Very chill spot with lots of signs, good drinks and lovely music. The music starts around 7pm and there is a $5 cover. Dog friendly.

It can be open until 2am but the hours depend on how busy they have been.

Would definitely go here again!

There’s nothing else like it — a must if you’re on Madeline! It attracts locals and tourists alike, especially nights when there’s live music. Get a margarita, chat with whoever’s next to you, pet the dogs that are walking around, and take in all the fresh air and DIY goodness. ?

You almost have to go inside to check out what it really is. What it feels like is homeless encampment, turns out to be not so bad place once you get settled in. So many different things to look at! Signs with contemplating quotes, and road signs holding the floors together. Quite possibly the most diviest bar I have ever been too, but that’s part of the charm. Beers and cocktails, a bit on the spendy side… ($6 and $11). Had to wait a little bit for some beers, but not enough to complain since there was only one bartender. Do they serve food? Sheesh, I don’t know and I wouldn’t dare eat there if they did! Cash Only!

If there was ever a Zombie Apocalypse and humans we permitted an hour reprieve, this is what life would look like. Didn’t give a rating for food cause I probably wouldn’t eat here. Can of beer was $6 but worth it to say I’d been a patron here. Give them a try, you know you want to.
