Tiki Bar

Booooo…
Heartburn in a glass — my bad, heartburn in a fake solo cup…

This place is only as good as its atmosphere on a given day.
The venue is interesting, with ample spots to chill with your TEN DOLLAR DRINK. Not to mention the abysmal selection — you have to want a sweet mixed drink or a miller lite and I’m pretty sure that’s all they have.

This is the spot on a Friday night, for some reason I felt like I was back at the florida keys, if your down at the Solomon Islands then this is a must see.

No drink selection to speak of. Mixed drinks are nothing other than a bucket of ice and flavoring. Everyhting is sticky or crusted with something. Don’t touch the ATM if you value hygiene. Bartenders look like somthing from a zombie movie. And the bouncers get off on harassing customers. Not a friendly relaxing environment.

Docked up for the night at St. Solomon’s marina and walked over to Tiki Bar for a few drinks. Very cool spot and fun atmosphere! Relaxed and casual! I will say that I did not eat and only drank but for a bar they get my 5. Bar tender’s were very friendly!
KEEP IN MIND CASH ONLY AT BAR. THEY HAVE AN ATM.

Went to the tiki bar for the first time last night. Had a great time. Really fun atmosphere and met some great people. Only reason it’s not a 5 star is because I heard everyone rave about their Mai Tais so I obviously had to try it. Unfortunately it was horrible. It was just a premade drink that was poured from a container. The rest of the drinks were fine, but I wouldn’t waste the money or time on the Mai Tai. Will definitely go back! Ps make sure you bring cash. It’s a cash only bar.

As you’re driving up to Tiki you can see from the street that it is an outdoor casual bar. It’s an old converted motel with a big outdoor seating area and aside from the Main bar at the front of the place there are 3 more bars in the back.
Closed during the winter months Tiki opens up the 3^rd weekend in April (if it doesn’t have to compete with Easter) otherwise it opens the weekend after that — and it’s a party. Solomons Island needs to make the Monday after the Tiki Opening a public holiday so that people can recover from a very festive weekend.
Be prepared to see a bunch of activity during opening — with live music, local food vendors and plenty of mai-​tais.
Each year Tiki imports a whole lot of sand and palm trees to give you an island vibe. You can sit outside with your drinks and soak up the sun whilst listening to some tunes. Or alternatively you can go to the Cigar shop and find an array of cigars from all over the world in their humidor.
There is no food served at Tiki — it’s strictly a drinking spot. Although they serve delicious pop corn till 8pm.
The Music is sub-​par if there aren’t live performances, with a lot of Country music and rock. I’d like to hear some reggae tunes and Hawaiian music if you asked me — with some new music from the hits today. The music is a real mood killer if you’re not into redneck tracks being pushed on repeat.
The place is adorned with quotes about booze and the toilets are nothing special — reminding me of a «dunny» with a swinging, wicketty wooden door between stalls (but it is an outdoor bar made just for drinking)
It’s a fabulous place to sit out at on a gorgeously warm and sunny day — feels like you’re not in Southern Maryland.
The Drinks are strong and the staff are super friendly and great at describing what they have available. There is no menu and they’re cash only — but they do have an ATM on premises (but it charges you $ 3)
The drinks are on the expensive side $ 7.50 for their signature cocktails and $ 8 for an orange crush, but super delicious.
Overall, a cute little spot that has made a big name for itself in Southern Maryland.

Sh*thole. If I had wanted to watch a bunch of inbred locals stand around and puke due to over-​serving of booze, I could have saved $ 100 and gone to any other dive bar in SOMD. The Tiki bar survives on history alone. Once upon a time this place must have been awesome, but today it is a sand pit with drunks peeing and puking all over the place. That is when the cops aren’t breaking up a fight, or a drug deal. My goodness, Salomon’s island is lame.

Cash only so don’t plan on using plastic. Good Orange crushes and popcorn.
Fun to read the writing on the wall. Screw the cracker, Polly wants a cocktail.
Good place to stop and swap stories over an Orange or Grapefruit Crush!

Hey, it is what it is. A bar in the middle of a parking lot… I guess. I’ve been to better. It was fun. So I may go back.

Came here for a few drinks on a Friday night. We grabbed a couple of oversized beach chairs to hang out, drink, and people watch. Cute place! The bartenders are not super friendly but were quick to grab me some beers. Some of the crowd seemed as though they should definitely not be served any more drinks! Overall a decently fun night.

Go TIKI ! People always concentrate on TIKI BAR OPENING weekend as the craziest party with the wild times in southern MD. The rest of the year Tiki Bar is an important locally supported spot for everyone to mingle. From the local fisherman who comes in after a tough day In the sun… to the visiting group of city folks down from DC the tiki bar offers a welcoming oasis to all patrons. The Orange Crushes are the best anywhere around. For those that don’t know the deal the locals menu of popular mixed drinks is sketched on the ceiling with iridescent glow paint. Order from there and ya will never be dissatisfied. Add to that a great BBQ from the «Grill sergeant» next door to make your visit complete. — Captain Brian Mayer (Marauder Charters)

Tiki opening is something you don’t miss as a SOMD resident however the rest of the summer it’s a last resort.
The drinks have gone up every season and the alcohol content has gone down. It also is a hit or miss with the crowd, half are 21 year olds drinking for the first time or Old people on vacation just sitting and drinking.

The staff here is awful. I was violently grabbed by a bouncer (and have fingerprint bruises to prove it) for attempting to use the ladies room at closing time after the manager had already given me permission. When I tried to discuss this unprofessional behavior with the manager, he called one of his goons out of the back room to get in my boyfriends face and try to start a fight. Five bouncers chased me and my boyfriend up the street. We did absolutely nothing wrong to provoke this attack. We called the police and the officer who responded said that this was the second call of that nature that evening alone.
I will never ever again return to such a horrifically unprofessional and improper establishment. This is a disgraceful place in such a pleasant community.

I want to try all of their drinks & not get dragged out by the police…

What a great little outdoor bar! I LOVE this place. Yes, it’s outdoor — so there’s dirt all over the place, and yes, there is a crowd that enjoys their cocktails. However, the Orange Crush tastes like ‘tang on steroids’ or a yummy creamsicle (fresh squeezed OJ!) and prices aren’t outrageous ($ 8 for an orange crush, ~$ 4 – 5 for a beer). However, keep in mind there is no indoor seating and it is cash only.

I have been coming to the Tiki Bar opening in mid April for the last few years. I always have a great time. This is an open air covered bar with some strong drinks. I always enjoy their Orange Crush and the Kokomo. The people come to party and drink during the opening, so there is always a huge crowd that weekend. It is a large bar with plenty of stools and is only open for the warm months of the year. Nice place to people watch and look at the boats on the water.

Cool place to sit and have a drink with your feet in the sand or sit in the patio.

These drinks are strong! Or maybe any drink is on an empty stomach. Regardless, I liked this place. It is had a nice view of the harbor and relaxed vibe. It draws a mixed crowd who flock for their mixed drinks. Their Orange Crush was one of the better one I have had and based on the amount of them I saw floating around others seem to agree. They are cash only so come prepared.

It’s a bar! It’s an inn! It’s a specialty shop! It’s Tiki Bar!
If you’ve been to Key West, The Tiki Bar will remind you a little bit of it.
Everything is in a thatched hut. The bar is one big hut. You can drink under the hut. Or hang outside. Most people seem to prefer this. Or you can go in the backyard and just relax in the sand.
Behind the bar are inn rooms. Although, no one doesn’t seem to be staying there. Across the street is a t-​shirt store and a tobacco store.
I noticed after I got my drink that everyone was drinking beer. Well, after I had a sip of my drink, I found out why. Whooo! They make their drinks too strong. Long Island Tea shouldn’t make me pucker my lips in distaste.
Of course, what’s the Tiki Bar without a Tiki statue here and there? Cute place to have a beer or two with friends.
