Watch this video- maybe I'll see you here someday!
Scenes in the “Corey Pearson-
CIA Spymaster in the Caribbean” spy series take place inside the No Name Pub
on Pine Key in the Florida Keys. Corey meets a contact there, amidst the
thousands upon thousands of dollar bills hanging from the ceiling and walls.
This funky pub is off the beaten path and
a great place to grab a cold beer and top-of-the-line pizza (Hint: Get the shrimp pizza with bacon). If you can find it…go
there! Its remoteness is why CIA Spymaster Corey Pearson uses it as a contact
place to meet his undercover agents. Enjoy the video above I made of one his contact
meetings.
Believe me, it’s worth it to make the
detour off main Highway 1. The staff is friendly and
knowledgeable of the area. I ordered the shrimp pizza (with bacon) and drank a few
inexpensive beer refills in a souvenir glass. The video I took shows many of
the Key Deer I saw when trying to find the place.
My wife says I have no sense of direction
and the No Name Pub was hard to find (for me) but I would still recommend
getting off Highway 1 in Pine Key on your way to Key West and visit it. If you
have GPS and a phone map, type in the address to avoid getting lost. I
guarantee you’ll see at least a dozen cute and tiny Key Deer along the side
roads you take to reach it. On a hot day, the chilled beer and cold raw shrimp
will cool you down!
I know hot pizza doesn’t sound too good on
a hot, humid day, but their shrimp pizza is to die for! Hint: I know this is a second reminder, but request that the chef add
bacon to your shrimp pizza order… outstanding!!
I call this Corey Pearson contact place the “Hidden Gem.”
Maybe I’ll see you at the No Name Pub someday…you'll recognize me. I'm the one scribbling down notes for the next episode of my spy series. Enjoy!
Note: Just
curious- anyone know how much money hangs from the ceiling and is stapled to
the walls of the No Name Pub? If you do, please let me know on the Secure
Contact Form. Thanks in advance!
