Opened in 2019 by Nando Córdova in San Isidro, Lima, Peru.

San Isidro, towards the west center, is one of 43 districts in Lima, Peru.

They have been on Calle Santa Luisa #250, San Isidro district since 2022. (It had a previous iteration at Manuel Bonilla 170 for a few months but shuttered due to COVID pandemic lockdown.)

Nando is a renowned Peruvian bartender, educator and promoter involved in the beverage, education and entertainment industry for over 20 years, specializing in branding, rum and tropical cocktails. In 2016 he was recognized for his track record as “Best Rum Bartender” by the International Rum Conference in Madrid, considered one of the benchmarks for rum and Tiki cocktails in Latin America.

His passion for rum led him, since 2017, to organize and direct Kontiki Lima Tiki Fest, a festival that brings together bartenders from the region and influential characters dedicated to the education and promotion of Tiki culture, as well as the Lima Rum Festival, a space within KLTF that brings together industry experts and the best rum brands in the local market, in order to promote the consumption and value of sugar cane distillates.

From The Parrot Shadow's Facebook:

"Somos un bar de culto al ron, influenciada por la coctelería Tiki, Tropical y Tradicional caribeña. Rescatamos y mantenemos el legado de sus protagonistas y la historia."

"We are a rum cult bar, influenced by Tiki, Tropical and Traditional Caribbean cocktails. We rescue and maintain the legacy of its protagonists and history."

Opened in mid December 2021.

This was the newly opened space for the former Honi Honi in Hong Kong.

Maka Hiki translated to "new beginning" in Hawaiian and took inspiration from a wide range of island and beach sanctuaries scattered from the Caribbean to the Indian Ocean, Polynesia to Southeast Asia. Maka Hiki took over the space formerly inhabited by Bond, reimagining the interior in a material palette of timber, bamboo and eye-catching tropical wallpapers. The outside terrace also contributed to the feeling of escape.

Helming the kitchen was chef Russell Doctrove, previously of Maximal Concepts, who ideated breakfast, lunch and dinner menus to sustain the tiki vibes from morning to night. Signatures included the Hawaiian-style tuna poke, grilled mahi-mahi, and a 48-hour slow-cooked beef rib with tamarind jaew BBQ sauce.

Cocktails also formed a large part of the experience, with drinks by the name of Tik Tok Tiki, Dum Dum Give Me Rum Rum, and Maka Hiki Punch continuing the Honi Honi tradition of spiriting patrons away to a faraway paradisiacal beach.

Closed in May of 2024.

Grand Opening on January 26th, 1960 and stayed open for about 25 years.

Ziegler’s Charcoal House, located in East Lansing’s Frandor Shopping Center, included an adjacent tiki bar called the Boom Boom Room.

Their most memorable cocktail was a bowl drink for six or more called "The Flaming Orgy".

August 10th, 1988, an auction was held to sell all of the interior decor and kitchen equipment.

Opened in 1963 with the reputation of being the first upscale Chinese restaurant in Hawaii.

As one postcard proclaims: "One of the most beautiful Chinese Restaurants in the world offering superb Cantonese cuisine, graciously served in an atmosphere enhanced by fine art reproductions. Kuan-yin, the Goddess of Mercy, carved in 5 feet of rosewood, greets diners at the second floor landing of the restaurant and Waikiki's only indoor waterfall is presided over by the God of Longevity."

Raymond Hong took his restaurant chefs to China for training and they introduced Peking duck to Honolulu.

In its heyday the restaurant was the place for glittering celebrities and for ordinary people marking special occasions, looking to enjoy a multi-course Cantonese dinner over several hours.

Closed in April 2005 and eventually replaced by the new Outrigger Hotels & Resorts' Waikiki Beachwalk project.

Although not a tiki restaurant, most tiki restaurants at this time (and many today) served the same Chinese food and tropical drinks -- and House of Hong did have several drinks that came in ceramic mugs made by Otagiri.

Opened on October 10th, 2021 in Manchester's Northern Quarter.

Lono Cove's "contemporary tiki bar" brand had already been well-established in Chester (2018-2022) and had won a handful of industry awards. Branching out from what owner Luke Edge called its "prototype site" in the city of Chester, this new bar in Manchester’s Northern Quarter was a larger and more expansive version by all accounts.

Formerly the site of Apotheca on Thomas Street.

Appears to have closed @ April 2024.

The Sing family operated Sing's Polynesian Restaurant and Lounge since 1969 in the Penobscot Plaza in Bangor, Maine.

They later decided to expand southward to Greater Portland where they opened Sing's Cantonese Polynesian American Restaurant and Lounge at 152 Main Street, Westbrook. The family lacked the management structure necessary to operate two such widely separated restaurants and closed the Westbrook location by 1976. This Westbrook location became site of the Polynesian Village until its close in 1997.

Sing's in Bangor is now the site of Hero's sports bar.

There was also a Sing's location in Lewiston, open at least as late as 1980 (color photo of sign below may have been from the Lewiston location).

"The Kau Kau Restaurant, at 1115 1/2 Second Avenue, took up the Polynesian theme in 1958 with tropical cocktails and authentic Cantonese dinners until 2:00 AM. Owner Wai C. Eng thoroughly remodeled the place in 1965 with new seating arrangements, wall paneling and booth lighting in the main dining room. Thirteen years later, Eng started up a branch location in Chinatown called the Kau Kau Barbecue Market; it was principally a lunch place and contrary to the name, had not much barbecue on the menu--mostly mein and sweet-and-sour dishes. The downtown Kau Kau closed in 1985; the barbecue evolved into the still-existing Kau Kau Restaurant on King Street." -- from Lost Restaurants of Seattle by Chuck Flood (2017)

This location operated in the 1960s and appears to have been torn down around 1968.

Old advertisements tout "Shade Cabanas at the water with electricity and restrooms, Concrete Ramp, Tiki Beer Bar, Dancing, Charcoal Broil Your Steaks, Shell Gasoline Service for boats, Restaurant serving breakfast, hamburgers, sandwiches, and cold beer).

It is now home to Moonridge Marina, a private community located 1 mile south of the Parker Dam, fronting the Arizona side of the Colorado River.

Inside Passage opened on June 25th, 2021 after a long delay because of the COVID pandemic.

It is owned by Pike Street Hospitality Group (the group behind Rumba, Agua Verde Café, and Tango Restaurant).

You enter by going through Rumba.

The interior was designed by Notch Gonzalez — and is more nautical than "tiki" in nature -- mixing tropical aesthetics (thatching, lighting, drink mugs) with Pacific Northwest seafaring history (including the name). That’s reflected in the rubber-and-foam octopus (which the bar nicknamed Kiki), as well as rustic wood accents throughout that recall an old ship.

Initially, the owners of the bar very pointedly tackled the concept of "tiki" on their website (in a section entitled "The Tiki Thing" which has subsequently been removed) and declared that they were not a tiki bar but an "immersion bar". They have tried to resist using any depictions of tikis, weapons, or sexualized native wahines (but topless mermaids and ship figureheads are nautical and okay apparently).

Despite this, if you are a fan of tiki bars, you will probably find much of their decor and their cocktail menu VERY familiar...

This early pre-tiki establishment used a headhunter as its logo.

In January 1941, Jack Mitchell opened the South Ocean Club. It was situated north of the Lake Worth Casino when Ocean Boulevard ran directly along the beachfront, extending from the ocean to the lake. For its gala opening, Don Ferrara’s Latin American orchestra kept guests on their feet with congas and rumbas.

The lower floor of the South Ocean Club’s two-story West Indies-style building served as the beach club with colorful cabanas aligned along the shore. Highlighted by a circular teak dance floor, the upper-level restaurant and lounge overlooked the ocean and lake. A colorful mural of big game hunters and headhunters by R. Bushnell Hyman added to the exotic atmosphere.

But World War II deferred Mitchell’s club life. He served as a naval submarine commander from 1942 until 1946, before returning to Palm Beach and building his own club legacy, the Coral Beach Club.

The South Ocean Club was destroyed by fire in 1956.

Opened December 2016.

From their website:

"Kawenzmann means in sailor slang "Monsterwelle" (Monster Wave) and thus alludes to the origins of the Tiki culture of the ancient seafaring peoples of Polynesia. For us, Tiki means one thing above all else: exotic, completely casual and also a little ironic bar and drinking culture - so don't be too serious. In addition to iconic Tiki drinks, our own cocktail creations and some Colada variants, we also serve you over 60 types of rum from all over the world to enjoy."

Lono Cove opened in Chester, United Kingdom, in September 2018, in the space formerly occupied by Zanzi Bar.

The bar was operated by Luke Edge and Carlo Guy, who formerly managed Red Door on St John Street, and who wanted to create a cocktail bar that, "takes elements of everything we've learned over the past few years and everything Chester requires from a cocktail bar."

Drinks were served in CheekyTiki (now known as Little Grass Shack) tiki mugs similar to what you might find at Lola Lo's or other UK tiki establishments.

The bar was intimate, decorated with palm wallpaper, trimmed in bamboo, and with an arched ceiling featuring a blue sky with magenta clouds and tropical birds winging overhead.

Like many tiki bars in recent years, it was a bit thin on actual tiki carvings, masks, or objets d'art such as one might expect from venerable forebears like Trader Vic's or Don the Beachcombers. The focus was mostly on the cocktail experience.

This Chester location closed @ October 2022.

A second Lono Cove opened in Manchester on October 10th, 2021 and closed three years later in 2024.
