The Scene – Part neighborhood hangout, part laid-back lounge and all about a happening happy hour, this bar's look is pure cabin kitsch. Its fake wooden logs and antique signs fondly recall those inexplicable logging attractions at every theme park. The televisions at the ends of the bar give off a slightly divey vibe, but the cozy, cushy lounge in back provides a sexy den for dates. – – The Draw – Locals camp out early to take advantage of its generous specials, including a two-for-one happy hour and ever-changing daily deals like cheap margarita pints. The bar boasts…
Editor's Tips
- When to Go:
- Happy hour is the best time to visit--the two-for-one drinks, 5pm-8pm (10pm on Tue), make it a great spot for a budget-friendly after-work buzz. Fri-Sun, DJs spin from 11pm until 4am.
- Know Before You Go:
- Kabin occupies the site of the former Black Star Lounge.
- The Extras:
- Looking to make like a VIP? The lounge area provides bottle service and can also be reserved for private parties.

NEVER EVER AGAIN
by gehrycoleman
it's one thing to have a couple of douches try to bully their way onto the pool table and when they don't get their way, throw a handful of quarters at your head and stomp around threatening to kill your entire group of friends and your family--it's another thing to then have the tall skinny bouncer with dreads come back and not give a shit. he enabled their supreme douchery and was horribly rude about the whole ordeal and refused kick out the lunatic asshat whose 'roid rage was ruining everyone's night. go back to long island and stay there.
- Pros: nice brunette bartender with the tattoos
- Cons: idiots everywhere

For a Good Time go to Kabin
by therealone
My friends and I were trying to go to Lit across the street and were not let in so we just so happened to stumble into the Kabin! We literally had a f-ing AWESOME time. The jukebox has a nice selection and the bartender was not only super fun, but she was very easy on the eyes.
We closed the place down at 4am and I have been back at least once a week since. I LOVE THIS BAR!
- Pros: 2-for-1 hr, great bartender, warm comfy feeling
- Cons: no food, but there is a menu book.
Purse Stolen Here- BEWARE!
by CHicks
Last night we were sent by the door guy at Mayahauel to Cabin to have a drink while we waited for a table to become available. We were a group of 8 people sitting together in the front of the bar. At some point in the 30 minutes we were there, my purse was stolen. The bar tender informed me purses were stolen "all the time" there. If you go to Cabin be careful and make sure to keep for bags/wallets close.
Great place for great simple fun!
by Ari
Kabin is a place that no one really pays attention to which is great! it's a simple bar, with flat screens, great place for games, there's a pool table in the back, and there's the occasional comedy show which is funny as hell...just an overall simple great place!
- Pros: cheap drinks, the comedy show, great service!
- Cons: no food!
