The Bullitt Bar, located in the heart of downtown Orlando, is a true "rock bar" themed after the well-known 1960s Steve McQueen movie bearing the same name. It is not the typical downtown bar that requires mega bucks and VIP "status" to get a booth - a very welcoming change to the area. Step inside to a décor right out of the movies, including real leather car-themed couches, a bullet hole ridden bar, smashed out brick walls, tail pipes hanging from the ceiling, a full-size Harley-Davidson, a refrigerator made out of a real van and ever-changing local artwork on the walls. The Bullitt Bar has DJs, outside seating, a fully stocked bar and is great for people watching. - Diane Dilov-Schultheis
