Description:
Came across this matchbook from a Tiki restaurant in Rhode Island called the Islander. I thought I would post it here.
I didn't really find any specific information on this place but it has been mentioned here a couple times. Nothing really solid and no photos or postcards have seemed to have surfaced.

Figured it was a location so it should be here.

And the not so exciting inside:

A few years back, in 2003, a TC'er named "Chris" from Warwick, RI, did post this:

"Don't bother checking out the Islander in Warwick. It is now a plain ole Chinese restaurant with a new modern design. The drinks are so so. The Islander used to have somewhat of a tiki atmosphere until 1990 or so. I remember it being dark and having a fountain in the middle."

That's all I have so maybe someone else on here has some information or could possibly get a picture of what this place looks like now.
They did have a very cool matchbook at that!

Mahalo, TabooDan
