Da Big Kahuna - Jacksonville Beach

Jacksonville Beach, Florida, United States

Open from 2012-2014.

This was part of a small chain that began with the original in Waikiki (@2006-2015), then saw a second location in Fort Lauderdale (2010 - 2016), and concluded with this third location in Jacksonville, Florida before going out of business.

There is little evidence left of the two Florida locations today (2025) but the original Waikiki location still thrives and looks much the same although it has changed names and owners (now called the Tikis Meeting Spot).

This chain was known for encouraging a club atmosphere in the evenings and providing inexpensive tropical drinks without trying too hard to replicate the classic Trader Vics/Don the Beachcomber experience.
