So trust me here OK? While this may seem like a regular sandwich bar, it's not! Forget about the food, it ain't that good to be honest. Just go in and ask at the counter if their bar is open. If you get the go ahead, go and open the freezer door to the right and walk straight in. You'll be pleasantly surprised what greets you. Perfect way to start the night. Dress tropical.
