Pages: 1 10 replies

Looks like a brand new Tiki Room will be opening it's doors very soon (this month!) in Vancouver BC. This has been in the works for months and there have been rumblings of a grand opening weekend of March 22nd. There's an alluring Facebook thread in conjunction with this as well, promising great things to come.

Your link does not seem to work.

Here is a working one.

They are really doing a nice job of getting folks excited with the FB page.

A handful of leaked photos have been located in regards to the new Tiki room that looks to be opening soon in Vancouver BC. It's been a pretty well guarded spot, no one allowed in and not much in the way of announcements. These pictures come from a reputable source though and give the impression of something pretty cool it would appear.
One of the shots was taken of (I assume) the new owner buying a virtual boatload of stuff at Oceanic arts to ship to Canada.

Hahahaha. I really look forward to seeing it. They're doing a bang-up job on the Facebook page. Go check it out if you haven't.

Looking quite promising!

Now the closest Tiki bar to me at 195 km. :o

Shouldn't the Shameful Tiki have it's own entry in Locating?

Here's something else I spied on the web:

Why yes it should, Slacks.

Thanks for posting that link. Here are the photos that accompanied the Vancouver Sun article:

I also clicked this link next to the Shameful Tiki Room article, which is a small gallery of images of Vancouver tiki bars/restaurants over the years, including these two photos of Trader Vic's that I haven't seen before:

"The famous doors at Vancouver’s Trader Vic’s, before it was closed and torn down in May 1999."

I was there. It was goooooood... Go!!!
