Little Ale' Inn - Area 51 Bar

There are plenty of extraterrestrial photo opportunities at the Little Ale' Inn. We enjoyed taking pictures with the spaceships outside more than sampling the food inside. There are amusing items to browse while you wait for your food, and the owners are pleasant and chatty.
