The Greasy Chopper is a bar featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.
Description
It is located in Downtown, Vice City, directly opposite Howlin' Petes Biker Emporium. It is the base of operations for the Bikers led by Mitch Baker, and the starting point for most of Baker's missions for Tommy Vercetti. Baker frequents the bar, as do Cougar and Zeppelin.
In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, two Angel motorcycles are typically parked outside the bar. The interior of the bar is not accessible to the player, except through modifications, cheats, and glitches. Despite this, the inside is quite detailed, as the walls are covered with license plates, stickers and flags. There are also several pinball machines, a few pool tables, a jukebox, and a stage with musical instruments on it. Posters of the Vice City Mambas can also be seen inside the bar.
In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, a black Freeway is parked outside the bar. Exclusively in this game, there is also a staircase attached to the eastern side of the building. The roof features two air conditioning units, which are absent in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. A body armor pickup can also be found here.
In both of the games, there is an extension to the south of the building, consisting of an enclosed yard. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, a body armor pickup may be found in a corner of the yard.

Trivia
- The interior can be seen without cheats by entering Apartment 3c, then leaving the interior without using the door. This can be done by parking a motorcycle in front of the door, then entering it using the jump from the front. From there, travel to the Greasy Chopper's location on the map and the interior may be seen, as the texture of the building itself will not load. The walls around are solid however, so a trainer would still be needed in order to enter.
- In GTA Vice City, outside the bar, there will always be a biker wearing body armor. He will fight if provoked with a melee weapon but will run away if he hears a gunshot or gets hit. He can be killed at any time but will always respawn.
- In the beta version of GTA Vice City, the bar may have been used as a safehouse[1].
