VIBE

This is full-blown, kitschy Polynesian. Think the Casablanca of Polynesian drinking establishments: the original Mai Tai was concocted by Trader Vic. Since 1963, the London outpost of this tiki lounge has survived the decades and still remains a nightlife establishment all around the world. It is THE original tiki lounge, and we can’t help but love it.

WHAT WE WOULD WEAR

Anything smart works here.

GO HERE WITH

Yourself; significant other; a few friends; tiki lovers

CROWD

Mix of young and old, as well as tourists and locals.

WHY WE LIKE IT

Perfectly kitschy from the bar menu offerings to the décor to the waitstaff’s uniforms.

WHAT WE WOULD CHANGE

Hard to say, we love it all!

GOOD TO KNOW

Live entertainment every night. The original location was in Oakland, CA. Ask about the 10-gallon Drinking Canoe, but make sure you have more than a few friends to help you out with this!
