Default Best Bars to go to in LOTO

I have been to LOTO a few times and have gone to Dog Days, Backwater Jacks and Horney Toad. I am visiting again in a few weeks and looking for some fun, crazy and busy places. Any Suggestions?

I've never not had a good time at Dog Days or F & L's. In all the years I've been going to LOTO (12) I've never been to the Topsider. I guess I better check that one off the list soon!

For you every weekend guys at LOTO, do they still have the maps with the bars on the water, etc. that they use to put out every year available?? I used to be there 12-15 weekends a summer but have not been down much last several to know if they are still producing it, if so, great resource with MM's and everything. Good luck, a few that we enjoy are Dockknockers, F&L's, Dog Days, Bulldogs Beachhouse MM33, Dick's Halfway Inn, Poop Deck at the bridge(same as Topsiders but day stop with pool), Gators, etc.. Have a blast!

All of the mentioned are good. I like Coconuts- the water in the Gravois is never as rough. Good docks and helpful dock girls!

Dog days is a must and try the "pain in the ass"
dicks halfway inn - you have to do the Minos shot
top siders is a blast and usually where we spend our nights. All the others are better day time bars IMO
