I took a day trip to Vegas on a Saturday in July and wound up at the Golden Nugget. Not sure why, as I'm not much of a gambler. Once I had flushed $60 down the drain in the slot machines, I decided to do something more productive.......grab a cocktail!
I began searching for the right bar, passing a bourbon bar (not my thing), a beer bar (not in the mood), and then there it was, the Ice Bar. Located just past the lobby and with a view of the pool/waterslide area, it looked just right. I grabbed a bar stool and ordered up a Titos and soda with a lime. Pretty simple stuff. The friendly bar tender quickly obliged and asked me if I would like to open a tab. Unsure how long I would be staying, I just decided to pay drink by drink. That's when she said it.......$12! Ok, maybe I'm a bit cheap, but I thought drinks in Vegas were supposed to be cheap. I paid up and even had a second one. Then, I decided it would be more economical to go drink at the airport.
A for location and atmosphere. C for drink quality. D for price.
