What it's like at the Freakin’ Frog Las Vegas:

What really makes the Frog a “gravity” point is its availability of exotic and more traditional whiskies paired with its weekly showcases of local talent. The attic holds over 500 unique and new brands of whiskey. The bartenders are well versed in most of the spirits, but if you want an in-depth whiskey experience, Adam is the man to contact. His business houses one of the largest beer coolers in Las Vegas, along with one of the largest selections. The Frog is so renowned for their whiskey selection that some local casinos call the Frog up to fill their whiskey supply.

High ceilings allow the stage acoustics to fill the room with a sort of sophisticated buzz. The absence of video poker machines brings more attention to intimate conversation rather than the monotone drones the Strip usually produces. The music also emanates a cultured ambiance that so many locals strive for. The bar has had talents ranging from one of the leads of Phantom of the Opera to the rockabilly swingers Mad Caps. The Frog’s affinity towards music allows you to find the hidden gems that may have not had the opportunity to play a larger venue.

“We have too many people in cinder block walls feeling trapped,” Howard Kenig, Freakin Music owner exclaimed.

The Freakin Frog can entertain the majority, for a fraction of the strips bar prices. If you want choices, live music and not break the bank the Frog is your best off the strip hangout.
