Sometimes the volcano erupts . Do not be afraid the bar is not on fire.* (* unless the bar is actually on fire...)

Staff Picks

Elaborate libations in a below deck ambience give this tiki inspired lounge an entertaining edge in Downtown San Fran. As far as boozy beverages go, guests rave about the Potion #9 and Mai Tai float . Read more

Eater

Daniel Parks and Justin D’Olier are heading up the project as managers, offering crafty tiki drinks like a mai tai on the rocks, and the “bird of paradise” made with passion fruit whipped cream . Read more

This is a beaut of a place. The ambience is top notch and the cocktails are awesome! The bartenders are good at their work and very friendly . Must visit if you love Rum and tiki bars .

Chris H.

Awesome experience - tasty elaborate drinks, lots of room that they make sure to keep from getting too crowded , and a starry sky. Best tiki bar in the city .

Josh Pyles

I love a good tiki bar and this place does not disappoint. Huge space with awesome decor and solid drinks.

Heba-I-am

I got the planter's punch and this one here is their booziest cocktail , I don't remember what it's called.. very effective. Great atmosphere, friendly bartenders , weird people... interesting place

Stephany

Excellent tiki drinks from the creators of Bourbon and Branch. You can call ahead to reserve one if their tiki huts even if you only have 4 people.

Marissa C

Delicious tiki cocktails , all out tiki decor and plenty of seating. What's not to love?

Rally by Eventbrite

You'll find thatched roofs, a ceiling that twinkles like the night sky, and a volcano that periodically erupts . Tiki drinks are all around $12, while shared bowls range from $25 to $50. Read more

Summer is in the air at this trending joint this week. This tiki bar has some awesome decor and great drinks to warm you up past spring and into summer . Read more

Mari

Fun tiki bar with a fog machine. The bar up front can be kind of slow as they craft all the tropical cocktails .

Joey Combs

Really awesome tiki bar with THREE different bars to get drinks. A little pricey , but I would say this place has def lived up to the hype.

Rahul Reddy Padigela

The decor is like a sunken ship in the ocean, pretty cool stuff. I recommend the Jamaican Scorpion bowl !

Drew Matthews

This place is awesome. Collectible drink containers may drive the price of a drink up a bit. But its worth it for a nice moment of getting buzzed in a Disney-esque tiki setting.

Kendal Cockrel

Fun, delicious drinks. Snag a table because it gets crowded fast.

Dinnidin

New trendy place with a nice interior. They take your card in exchange of this fancy cup :-)

Alexander Lobov

Impressive setup, love the souvenir tiki mugs. Not a fan of the way they make the Jungle Bird but the “Hemingway is Dead” is a great take on the Papa Doble.

Derek P

Definitely order the "Dawn Patrol" Roasted marshmallow on a tiki drink , yes!

Nicholas K

The drinks are very good & there is a back bar that wasn't open the 1st time I went. The rum selection is more extensive at the back bar including some rims that are more rare.

Chris Camargo

I tried the Mai tai float , and the Dawn Patrol. Both incredible, but I think the Mai tai wins my heart.

Kat 🐱

Great tiki bar with wonderful ambiance. The tiki bowl is a little bit too sweet for me tho.

Chloe Condon

Great drinks and VERY big space . Can get crowded - try to sit by the waterfall ! 🗿🌊

Sarp Erkaya

Fun and silly tiki room! Pina colada might not be too original but was the best drink

Lukas K

Authentic Tiki drinks . The Daywalker is a really good version of the Zombie.

Christian Baker

Excellent Trader Vic-style Mai Tai and the space itself is well-designed and comfortable .

Ankita Nellimarla

All the tiki drinks are great! Loved the Hemingway and bird of paradise ! Pineapple Express was a close third!!

Great tiki bar in FiDi! Spacious and the drinks are delicious!

Toland Hon

The Fassionola Gold serves 4-5 and comes with fire!

Julia Firenz

Potion #9 is so good but will give you persistent brain freeze if you're as excited as I was about it

Becky OtterBot

The pineapple express was light, delicious and beautiful! Great atmosphere and the crowd was friendly . LOVE this place.

Sara

Delightfully vibrant and a little kitschy but in all the right ways. Drinks were great, staff was on top of it with clearing away seating areas.

Giulia Prati

The bird of paradise with passion fruit whipped cream and sea salt was delicious and beautiful! 🌺 🍹

Ashley Rose

Kitschy , but cool Tiki bar . Reserve a table in the back, I’d smoke machines don’t bother you.

erinsauce

Amazing bar ! It gets crowded at happy hour time but chills out past 8pm on weeknights.

Kevin Grant

The best Tiki bar you can imagine - with a volcano that erupts every half hour or so.

Blair Hanley Frank

Try the Mai Tai Float–a cool riff on a tiki classic.

Go Find Alice

Cool tiki bar ! Get the pineapple cocktail drink !

Rachel Roth

Fabulously elaborate cocktails in an over-the-top setting.

Will Bertelsen

Get the Bird of Paradise ! A sour cachaça based cocktail below a deliciously sweet whipped cream topping.

Peggy Li

Great drinks, but gets crowded early (think 5 pm, maybe sooner) as FiDi employees start leaving work for happy hour .

Dave

Slingshot yourself into type II diabetes with any of their fine cocktails

Elizabeth Burstein

Awesome spot for birthday drinks. Loved their giant bowls!

O L

Love this tiki. Cosy vibe, plenty of space for a crew.

Max K

Awesome new tiki bar . Dare I say better than Smugglers?

Nitzan B

Fun place, cool cocktails !! The back is very spacious

Shina

The drinks are as great as they look. Not sure about their playlist but other then that, awesome spot for groups.

David Holtz

Cool drinks and ambiance. Arrive early before it gets crowded .

Bommy

Fun ambiance but can get very crowded so come early, walk straight past the first bar , and find a space in the back room. Daywalker is not too sweet, boozy , and goes down too well . But $15?!

Sarah

Ask for a fruity , non-alcoholic drink 🍹
