(Great Falls, MT)
Scooter’s 1377th bar, first visited in 2019.
Who would ever think that the bar in a borderline shady motel would be a tourist attraction? But that’s exactly what this is.
Located on the second level of a very-dated motel, this tiki bar features casino games and a full menu of pretty decent food. But the main feature is that the back of the bar butts up against the motel’s swimming pool, with a glass wall allowing bar patrons to see into the water. At scheduled times of day women dressed as mermaids swim in the pool, performing for bar guests and getting pictures taken with them for tips.
(I assume that at other times of day bar patrons would see motel guests swimming, which might be a bit weird at times.)
I had a Cloudblast (NE IPA) and a Dam Fog (wheat beer), both by Mighty Mo Brewing Company
First-time visitors (such as us) might find it a bit confusing figuring out how to get to the bar, and might go to the ground floor restaurant instead. Enter the main motel entrance and take these stairs at the back of the lobby.
