Tiki Bar
Jungle Bird - San Juan
San Juan, Puerto Rico
Opened in September of 2016.
This bar describes itself as a "Tropical leisure cocktail bar located in the heart of La Placita de Santurce."
They serve tiki and tropical cocktails with a rum focus, and use a variety of tiki mugs.
Like many recent bars, the decor is lightly tropical but not immersive with tiki carvings and artwork in the way that Trader Vics and Don the Beachcomber set the standards with -- and probably why they do not use the "Tiki" label for themselves, preferring to focus on the cocktails.
However there is at least one actual wood tiki carving in the outside patio area and the overall ambience is dimly lit and inviting, sure to attract tiki aficionados who might be in the area and thirsty for a crafted beverage.
