Señor Frogs at Treasure Island

A spring break legend in its own right is the brand Señor Frogs.

This venue boasts a monster patio that overlooks the famous T.I. pirate ship and the iconic Sin City strip, and sin you will with an hour of cocktails included. This venue is a “best-seller” for our bachelor parties and bachelorette parties, mainly due to the social atmosphere, DJ, and just overall amazing drink selection. On Thursdays to Sundays at 11 AM and 2 PM, you will find the infamous drag brunch here.
