The Old Hangout - at McMenamins Elks Temple
Tacoma, Washington, United States
McMenamins Elks Temple in Tacoma opened on April 24, 2019. The historic 1916 building was restored by McMenamins following its acquisition in 2009, transforming the former lodge into a 45-room hotel with multiple bars, restaurants, a brewery, and a concert venue.
The Old Hangout, opened along with the rest of the venue in April 2019. Located on the ground floor, this tiki-themed bar features bamboo & rattan decor and a waterfall, but in keeping with other McMenamins venues it is fairly eclectic and incorporates a number of other vintage and found items that aren't normally found in tiki bars.
You will spot a Papua New Guinea mask and a Hawaiian carved Ku but there are also Balinese and African pieces, and other eclectic pieces of flotsam and jetsam.
They do have a tiki tropical drinks menu and serve cocktails in tiki mugs.
