McTiki it's amazing!! Well worth the wait to see. Whatever that is in the last picture that looks like a cabinet/bar is fabulous. Wish I could get to Cocoa Beach to come see the whole place live & in person!

Thank You! That means alot!

I mean, when I landed back in O-town after being gone a month while this was all in the works, I didn't even go home! I went straight to the store and started. Hell, I had clothes with meh!

Every night since (March 22nd) after corporate life, I go here and work til early morning hours sometimes.

It's almost done now, and I am tired. Time for rest. We open monday!

Looking for artists now. Any takers?

mahalo Ohana!

Aloha TC! Grand opening will be in May. We had a very quiet opening yesterday. Monday/Raining/No building signage yet, so, it was rather lackluster, but, exciting for anyone who ventured in. Hopefully, things will pick up as the word gets out.

We are located @ 5675 N. Atlantic Ave (A1A) suite # 115 Cocoa Beach, FL 32951
Right down the ave from the space center!

Thank you for all the props! It was a long two weeks putting this together for the deadline. Now, back to corporate life.

And yes, you can drink the wine smoothies from da mugz! We are considering having a mug dedicated to the store using the now copyrighted logo.

You know we love mugs! Don't forget to think of the Geographically challenged when the mugs are ready!

Thanks for the link McT....don't know how I missed your post (with all the lurking and posting I do). :)

FabulousFabulousFabulous. Your bars look so professional...great job!!! I like the mural paintings on the walls. Are ya playing EXOTICA for the shoppers?

Are you advertising, or mostly foot traffic? A frequent-buyer's club would be kewl with some wine guides (what flavors go best with different meats, fish or etc). How is business going so far?

Your store looks nice a clean and the wine is displayed well. Keep us posted...and looking forward to the website, I'll be buying from ya. :)

Thanks for the props. Yes, it is way different even now from the pics that are posted. We have so much positive feedback on the store, it's incredible! I am humbled. Iv'e done 3 shirt illustrations for our shirts now, (only the roothead Tiki girl exists right now, the other two may appeal more to the men [Moai and Ku drinkin!]).

Yes, we are doing well (Now that the sign is installed on the Marquis) We can't even measure how we are doing until we have a full 30 days with the sign and all of our invnetory. I think we'll be ok. It's fun to watch the locals. They are hoping we survive and are stoked we are there, yet, only 4% of the local population even know we are there. That's about to change as Local newspaper has documented the build out and the opening and are about to publish this week.

It's been a learning experience for me having lived so many years as a technical nerd type for 30 yrs. This job rocks! We were mixing different flavors together at the bar today when we got bored. We play steel drum music and reggae (No Buffet!) It just makes you think your on vacation.

Thanks again for the props! We'll be on line soon!
