Little A'Le'Inn

"Earthlings welcome," the sign outside the Little A'Le'Inn warmly greets its customers. The doormat is no less subtle in its message: "Aliens Welcome." Such is life in the wide spot in the road called Rachel, Nevada, the nearest community to the access roads leading into Area 51.

Pat and Joe Travis run the Little A'Le'Inn, which is a bar that serves up alienburgers and regular beers and has a few mobile home units out back where star-gazing tourists can rest overnight at rates roughly competitive with Motel 6. Be sure to drop by next time you're in the area.
