As close to a punk rock tiki bar as one of those could be. The staff and the locals really make the place, though. A really fun spot to hang out with a bowl of liquor and fruit.Upvoted Mar 1
SFGate ManagerJuly 16, 2012While most of the Richmond regulars rely on "normal" drinks, there's a full menu of all the delectable umbrella-topped tiki classics: mai tai, zombie and of course, the deadly Scorpion Bowl.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
Rally by EventbriteMarch 29, 2017San Francisco's very first Tiki Bar, there’s a huge selection of tiki drinks, many of which come in a bowl, and almost all of which come with a drink umbrella and a maraschino cherry. Read more

Lesley YatesDecember 16, 2018Don’t bother with the menu - there are no descriptions. Ask the bartender or a local for their favorite drink. Best tiki dive bar! Worth the the trip! 🌴
Elliot WehnerJanuary 3, 2015Good divey tiki spot that has been here since the tiki craze. The drinks aren't as good as Tonga or Trader Vic's but are cheap and do the trick
An ShengMarch 3, 2018Drinks are average but at $6.5 each I really can’t complain. Music system let’s people play songs of their choice
Maria HopperOctober 15, 2012Beers are cheap! Must try a scorpion bowl!!! Will definitely come back as long as they don't play skrillex.- Brendan NeeAugust 10, 2012A divey, old tiki bar with real bowls for the scorpion and volcano. Well worth the trek to the outer Richmond.
ClareAugust 10, 2014Mai Tais are strong, classic, take forever. Great Star Wars pinball, fun jukebox.
Scorpion bowl! Sit at the bar & you may get a free drink or two..or five ;)
Lindsay EyinkJune 9, 2017Haven't been here, yet but always mean to because it has an awesome neon sign.
Byron WilkesFebruary 9, 2016Do not order the dark and stormy. It is neither dark nor stormy (as in, no ginger beer in sight at this joint). Pretty mediocre through and through.
Scorpion Bowl and ice cream floats. Attempt to corner the jukebox.
OMG it's Mike!September 22, 2013Cash only. Seriously. Cash only. What's that? Credit cards? No. Cash only. CASH ONLY!
Mary AustinFebruary 15, 2011Pace yourself on that damn scorpion bowl. Halfway through your second one, you and your friends will regret it.
Never, ever, have the bowl alone. If you have to share with a stranger(s)
Jcaps is the best 11 ball and pin ball player at tradr sans!
