Tiki Bar
Kona Club
Oakland, California, United States
Opened in 2005.
A tiki bar from Doug Miller, owner of nearby Club Mallard. Interiors are full of tapa cloth and carvings from Oceanic Arts, and lots of bamboo installed by Bamboo Ben with the help of Crazy Al Evans. Highlights of the decor include a volcano behind the bar that "erupts" with smoke periodically, and a life-size bronze hula girl complete with swivelling hips.
Kona Club is situated just a block or so from Trader Vic's final resting place at Mountain View Cemetery.
