Hubby and I went along to Kanaloa around 5.30 yesterday after work. After walking through a snooty-looking bar and going up the stairs we found this new tiki mecca - hurray! Grabbed a table and perused the menu but something wasn't right - nosebleed dance music blasting so loud we couldn't hear eachother. Darn. Then a guy came up to us and it took a couple of attempts before I could hear him say they weren't open until 8.Jeez. Not a great after-work drinking place then! We just went to the Tiki Bar and Kitsch Inn instead and had a blast.

Maybe the music changes when the place actually opens, maybe it's more a nightclub than a casual bar? Anyway, the decor in real life is truly gorgeous, I love the huge cluster of fishing floats. Maybe we'll go back another time, but some more info re. hours on the website would be helpful - maybe it's open earlier Saturdays?

As for happy hour, I was right - such promotions have been banned in Scotland. Then again, Kanaloa Glasgow wasn't even open during London's happy hour!
