2009 Drinking Guide: Kirby’s Bar & Grill
June 29th, 2009 by Cooper Levey-Baker in News
KIRBY’S BAR & GRILL
The basics: 2460 Stickney Point Road, Sarasota, 922-3777 [map it]
Signature drink(s): Apple pie, Stella Artois on tap
Most friendliest bartender(s): Linda
When I asked Kirby’s owner Linda — who happened to be pouring suds on the Thursday night I stopped in — if the bar does any specialty nights for the ladies, she shakes her head: “I do everybody’s night.” It’s that welcoming attitude that has kept Kirby’s in business for 21 years, as well as the pool tables, the faux-painted walls and, oh yes, the ginormous jar of pickled eggs. Kirby’s is massive inside, too, with 5,000 square feet of space. That means you can really pack the joint when it’s your turn to serenade the room with your version of “Fat Bottomed Girls” and “Jeremy.”

When I see that photo, it answers a question I have always harbored? What would the love child of Sean Hayes (Jack from Will and Grace) and Paul Reubens looks like?
Thank you CL!
