Honi Honi - Edmonton

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Opened in January 2023 by Scott Dodds.

This bar features a large well-stocked back bar of rums.

Green naugahyde/vinyl booths, dark moodily lit interior with fish floats hanging from a tin ceiling, framed art on the walls, many of which are covered with lahala matting, and captain's style spindle chairs complete the look of this bar.

Both Tiki Tiki on Whyte and the Honi Honi Tiki Bar in Edmonton also sport vintage carved panels from the original Edmonton Beachcomber, salvaged by appreciative collectors, and then re-sold to the New Wave bars.

Honi Honi is more cocktail and rum focused than Tiki Tiki on Whyte, which has cocktails but also focuses on its gastropub fusion food. Honi Honi has some snacks as well but drinks are the definite priority here.

YuKonTiki – 28 June 2023

First visit to Honi Honi. A new favourite! Scott Dodds and his team have done an amazing job with this place.

YuKonTiki – 21 Nov 2024

No Edmonton visit would feel complete without stopping in at Honi Honi. I have gone so far as to bump it up to the top of my list as it is officially now my favourite tiki bar. I feel at home each and every time I enter. I’m usually there in an Aloha shirt, but this time I was in an Oilers jersey - having just suffered through a 5-3 loss to Minnesota. A painkiller was the perfect remedy! Honi Honi is the real deal. The meticulously crafted classic cocktails, the fantastic artwork on the walls, the music, the staff… it’s exceptional. Which tiki bar is the best is always debatable, but Honi Honi is my favourite and that’s all that matters to me.
