Tiki Bars in Southern California

Howdy -- I've been keeping up this list and map for several years. But sometimes new tiki bars pop up or old ones close down that I miss. Please take a look to make sure I haven't missed anything. Thanks

Looks very comprehensive to me! Thanks for compiling it.

I don't know if you want to include the Mothership and Captain's Quarters in SD?

Mothership added. I feel foolish that I forgot that, thanks. I'm not sure about Captain's Quarters. I went once and I don't think it really qualifies as a tiki bar.

Glad to help. I haven't been to either yet, I have heard them called Tiki bars but we both know that doesn't mean anything LOL

I'm not sure about Captain's Quarters. I went once and I don't think it really qualifies as a tiki bar.

But Mothership is? ;) You might wanna consider adding The Lucky Tiki soon, as it's reopening some 20 years later in West Hollywood.

Glad to hear about Lucky Tiki.

But haha, yes I'd call Mothership a tiki bar -- although with an unusual theme. I think the only thing really "tiki" about Captain's Quarters is its sister bar next door.

there's ANOTHER NoHo tiki bar?! https://www.thecantiki.com/ Crazy, that's literally right near Kahuna Tiki. Imagining that whole stretch of Magnolia becoming totally tiki-ized. And you've got TikiNo, Kahuna TikiTu, and the king of them all, The Tongo Hut, all within a few miles. Hope the market can support all these. I'll certainly do my part to keep em all in business!

Anyone been yet?
