I recently picked up this postcard from the Bamboo Cocktail Lounge located in Lake Worth Florida.

This pre-Tiki place has to be one of the most bamboo-covered bars I have ever seen. What it's lacking in the TIPSY factor is more than made up for by the bamboo factor.

Every inch is covered in bamboo product, including the floor, the chairs, the tables, the bar, even the swinging doors in the back. It's like it was built by Bamboo Ben on steroids (or Budwiser)! No white walls! The only thing they missed was the ceiling, but at least they painted that brown.

A few other bars that come close to this bamboo nirvana:

Early postcard from Steven Crane's Beverly Hills Luau with the bamboo covered bar area.

And the Bamboo Rooms at the Hotel Windemere in Santa Monica.

Would like to see more bamboo palaces on this thread - show me what you got.
