Biminis is (was) located at 2010 West 4th Ave. Hmmm… perhaps the fire is some sort of publicity stunt paving the way for a grand reopening in time for the 2010 Olympics. I can just picture it now, Biminis reborn from fire into the new Biminis Phoenix – an eternal flame will be lit (Tatlows-style) by the Olympic Torch itself.

I was never particularly fond of the bar myself, but it was an institution nonetheless. It will be sad to see it shut down. Anyone know if they are planning to rebuild?

It’s devastating. Bimini’s was our version of “Cheers”. It’s hard to find a place like that where you know all of the staff and can always count on having a great time whether it’s watching a hockey game or dancing the night away. Let’s all hope that they are able to rebuild soon!

I found that place to be very cheesy and the food boring. Very sad though to see a building built in 1910 lost to fire.

A very sad day indeed. Reno’s just finishing up, hockey starting on Friday – where will we all go? I have too many memories of that place to count – it is a legend in Kits

It’s a sad day – Bimini’s Pub was the birthplace of Greenpeace – the founders of the organization originally had a small office across the street and this was their afterwork hangout.
