Bad news : the neo tiki bar "Tiki's" in Gierle in Belgium has changed into a dance-techno club for 16 years old teenagers !! We're living in a sad world these days... |

Bad news. There's too few tiki bars in Europe already, without losing them. |

Tiki Road Trip lists 4 Tiki bars in spain, 3 in Barcelona. I've never been there but this should be worth the Trip. |

There are at least 10 Tiki bars in Spain! Between us, Tiki Chris and I have visited most of the ones we know of. Check out an older report here: http://www.traderwoody.iwarp.com/spain.html It's not too hot on the Barcelona Tiki bars as they have been reported on Tiki Central along with lots of pics. Try the 'Locating Tiki' forum for more on Barcelona, where Spain's finest Tiki bars are to be found. It's sad news to hear that 'Tikis' has closed in Belgium as the loss of a European Tiki bar is a real shame. I never got the chance to visit, but the decor came from The Wild Weekend 2 - a Tiki/garage festival in the UK. These Tiki decorations were early works by Josh Collins, who also decorated the 'South London Pacific'. Trader Woody [ Edited by: Trader Woody on 2004-02-10 01:57 ] |

Too bad is right! Funny, their web-site doesn't mention anything about the change from tiki to techno... You can read a review (and look at a couple of pictures) of Tiki's in the Excursions section of my Mai Tai web-site: http://www.angelfire.com/un/maitai Will have to list it as "closed" if it has indeed been de-tiki-fied... |

On the spanish Tiki bars front the "Moai" in Bennidorm has turned into a style bar, it was undergoing a major refurbishment when i was there, just yesterday. but on a positive note the "Mai Tai" is still going strong, i'm part of the way through a hangover from their cocktails. |
