Another amazing tiki bar in the area with unique drinks. Me and buddy went there a couple of years ago and I have yet to return, but I must go on a date one day read more

One of my absolute favorite Tiki bars. The decor on the inside is amazing with some amazing wall art and little tiki booths you can sit in. Drinks are what you'd expect from a tiki bar, not complaining. I had gone on a Sunday afternoon so it wasn't busy and service was quick. Two downsides: they don't sell any type of food or snacks to much on while you drink and the general location is.... Interesting. Overall it's a great tiki bar that I 100% will go back to. read more

We had a fun time here. It was definitely worth going and checking out. We were trying to hit up as many tiki bars as we could. We hit three tonight, which was awesome. We came on a weeknight and it wasn't too busy, which was really nice. Gave us the opportunity to walk around and check things out. read more

Let start with the bad. This place is located in the Tenderloin. If you are not aware of that section of San Francisco I would suggest you do some research before so you know what you are getting into. With that being said this space was cool. It had a bunch of little bungalow type seating if you wanted a bit of privacy along with a huge bar! The bartenders were good and made you feel comfortable. After you do your research, hopefully you decide to check it out. read more

Absolutely atrocious service on New Year's Eve even though the space had barley 30 people. We had a tiki hut reservation which was only for one hour, from 9 to 10pm. We got seated at 9.10, ordered drinks at 9.20 and drinks arrived 9.40. We were lucky that the 10pm party never showed up and ended up having another round of drinks. Besides that, the place is fantastic, loved the ambiance and music and the drinks were solid! read more

Disco Banana -- not as creamy and sweet as described. Has blended banana in it but the rum overpowers it. But I got another drink called jbmp. It was a delicious and smooth clarified drink! The vibes inside were so cool! It was decorated so well with the starry lights at the top and the little aquariums in each hut. So tropical! I loved the ambiance and the lively spirit of the bartenders. They were super friendly and helpful. read more

I ll say this nicely, you're more likely to see more zombies outside! IFYKYK. But otherwise, the vibes of this tiki bar are incredible! Plenty of space, great theme, and outstanding drinks. The drinks are STRONG, I feel like I'm not using enough emphasis on the word "STRONG"! So tread lightly when ordering..Otherwise, great service and good vibes. It's a cool place to show visitors from out of town, etc. But probably a good idea to call an Uber when visiting. read more

Zombie Village serves tiki drinks and you should expect some strong alcoholic ones. Although it was a Friday night, around 8-9PM, we had no trouble walking in and finding a spot to sit and drink. Reservations available online for the booths. I ordered the Coco Pandan which comes with a popsicle. None of us could really tell what the flavor was but letting it melt into the drink turned it into something like a smoothie! It's extremely strong, probably the strongest one I tried here. It also doesn't help that it gets thicker so the alcohol taste kind of lingers in your mouth longer. Despite the strong drinks, the vibes are relaxing. There was chill, tropical music playing in the background but quiet enough where we could still hear each other. It's very dim inside and the further back you go, the weaker your cell service. Fun place to get the night started! read more

Heck yeah this place was great! The bar is in the heart of the tenderloin and is through a nondescript black door. A group of ten of us went for a bday party, and they sat us in a back "hut", which was perfect for privacy and chatting. The decor is top notch with straw and murals and lights and water features. We ordered one of the drinks they set on fire to share; it is a MUST. The pina coladas are excellent as well. The only food they have is chips, which helped satiate munchies from all the fun. Our waiter was entertaining and responsive. This was a wonderful evening out! read more

My go-to bar! The vibe in here is very chill, relaxing music, intimate spaces, great to just have a strong drink and chat w/ your friends. I love their coco pandan and birds of paradise drink. You order at the bar and then you can bring the drink to an available table. This is somewhere I always bring friends if they want to go to a tiki bar since it is so lowkey read more

Great atmosphere, friendly bartenders. They have tiki huts that you can reserve in advance (we didn't take advantage but might in the future). I love the starry sky on the ceiling. The drink menu is limited to a dozen or so tiki cocktails, but they will make you other popular tiki cocktails like the chi chi. This was our second tiki bar of the night and our favorite in SF so far. It doesn't serve food; you come for the drinks and the vibes. I would highly recommend taking a Lyft/uber/taxi at night as the location is in the Tenderloin. read more

Came here on a Thursday night around 9:00 PM with friends and the place was almost empty. This is possibly one of the coolest decorated bars I've ever been to -- from the "starry sky" lights to the back walls that look like stone caves to the tiki hut bar and alcoves, I loved everything about this place. They have little alcoves with a table in them for groups to have a section all to yourselves, which I absolutely loved. The bartenders were helpful and funny, and when my friend spilled her drink that night, they cracked a few jokes with us and cleaned up the mess quickly. I got the Desert Oasis, and it was strong and not overly sweet! A generously sized drink, I loved the little umbrella and nopal that cane with it. All the drinks we ordered were beautifully decorated and delicious. We had such a good time here, I need to come more often. Definitely a cool bar to check out! read more

This used to be my go-to tiki bar in the city. The atmosphere is great, and the drink presentation is fun. The booths are super cozy and perfect for small groups. Sadly, my last visit missed the mark. The drinks were way too syrupy. All five of us noticed it, so it wasn't just me. I wish they'd focus more on the drinks themselves and less on presentation. read more

More rum drinks than I would personally prefer but honestly I should know better when going to a tiki bar lol Cool decor and good vibes I liked the lower volume level for a more intimate/catch-up kind of cocktail time I still think about the curry flavored cocktail I got. Would go back and would recommend read more

This bar is AMAZING!! It is sooo beautiful and huge inside. The atmosphere is incredible, the staff are super friendly, and the drinks are very tasty. My favorite drink was the one with pisco sour in it, it was very delicious and not too sweet. read more

Place is everything you expect from a tiki bar. Area is not the best part of SF so walking from our hotel probably wasn't the best choice. We made a hut reservation and were seated a few minutes late as they had to kick someone out. We got served pretty quickly but took a while to get the next drink order in. Drinks were tasty but a lot of ice. I would go back but only if others insisted to go. read more

Now this is the place where Shirley MacLaine and Fred MacMurray should've had their final tryst before she goes running off to Jack Lemmon at the end of "The Apartment". They have conveniently private alcoves presumably for illicit lovers but more likely for drunk louts who need extra insulation from the outside world. It's the darkly clandestine tone that makes this a classic tiki experience. This hideaway tavern is deep in the Tenderloin on Jones near O'Farrell, but the only trace of its existence are the palm trees painted on the light fixtures above the otherwise nondescript access doors. Once I entered, the surprisingly expansive bar beckoned. There were large tiki masks, dramatic lighting effects, stars on the ceiling, and the requisite periodic volcano effects (video: https://yelp.to/xVfodFVaBT). The right mood was indeed struck. The cocktail menu was appropriately evocative and a perfect match for the ambiance. Brian was a great bartender, friendly but never obtrusive, and he dealt with loud alpha types like a liquor sales rep with aplomb. I went for the $17 Coco Pandan, an alluring elixir of Barbados rum, coconut milk, pandan, and coconut rum liqueur accompanied cheekily by a tropical popsicle (photo: https://yelp.to/S39dFUjxDx). Made with lychee and coconut, it was a whimsical touch that brought a sweet element to the drink. My next drink was even better, the $16 Disco Banana with Martinique and Jamaican rums, lime, cinnamon, and banana. Topped with a banana chip, it evoked a balmy night at a Caribbean resort with Billy Ocean playing on the muzak (photo: https://yelp.to/tnRhFyKyP7). Brian was kind enough to top off my evening with a rum aperitif (photo: https://yelp.to/RfFtUvse60). COCKTAILS - 5 stars...well tested libations, the popsicle was ingenious AMBIANCE - 5 stars...the best traditional tiki bar setting in the city SERVICE - 5 stars...Brian was aces TOTAL - 5 stars...pure tiki delight RELATED - Exploring the Tenderloin?

Such a cool tiki bar! The entrance is a bit hard to find, but the decor inside is amazing. The ceiling even looks like the night sky. They have very unique drinks, although I will say that they are pretty strong. I also love that they have small bamboo huts that you can reserve - it's the perfect date spot. If you do this they will also come take your order, otherwise you go to the bar. read more

We had received disappointing service at every place we went to UNTIL Zombie Village. Brian was BEYOND amazing, showing up just as our drinks got low and suggesting the BEST options. And the decor and ambiance of Zombie Village means we're already plotting when we can get our friends together to introduce them to it! read more

The tiki decor is amazing not very busy when we came in. Bartender is super friendly. Had 3 drinks and chips. No other food here eat before coming. No mugs at this time so hopefully i get one next visit. read more

Amazing tiki bar ambiance! We almost missed the entrance, but the bouncer pointed us in the right direction. Perfect timing, since it started raining as we made our way in. We stepped into Zombie Village and were immediately in awe of the starry lights, tiki huts, hidden alcoves, and caverns. Surprisingly, it wasn't very crowded around eight on a Saturday evening, but it did fill up as the evening progressed. I had tried to make reservations ahead of time, but was unable to, but looked like it was open seating on a Saturday night. Drinks range from $15-20. We pretty much ordered almost every cocktail creation on the menu. We were most enamored by the Village Punch, which comes garnished with a fresh gardenia flower. I ordered the Coco Pandan, which comes with a popsicle and the classic Painkiller. Drinks were a lot of ice and not very strong (at least the ones I ordered), but they were tasty and not too sweet. I think I would ask for the drinks to be blended in the future. Overall though, we enjoyed our private alcove and the ambiance. Service was also helpful, made recommendations, and had our drinks ready within minutes. I also enjoyed that it was not terribly crowded. If you're looking for seating and ambiance, I would highly recommend checking out this tiki bar. read more

Ooooh damn it took a long time for our drinks! Roughly 20 minutes after we ordered at the bar. And if you look at my pics, that's how empty they were on a Saturday night (with at least 3 bartenders available). Ehhh.. were the drinks good enough to wait that long for? Nope. That, combined with their lack of care, there is no way I could give more than 3 stars. Nice atmosphere, especially the changing lights and themed decor, and little nooks with booth seating, the feeling of being in an underwater cave, as well as a small upper level which looked cool (this section was closed on Saturday night). But there was nothing really great about the drinks or service. We got the Desert Oasis, Doc's Grog, and Jamaican Zombie. That last one was spicy! (for me at least) We stayed till closing, and wow, they're pretty adamant and on top of getting everyone outta there BEFORE closing time. They worked harder and more quickly on that than they did when making drinks. read more

The TL has a great little tiki bar with fun shareable drinks! I will preface that between Christmas to NYE, the city is very empty so we were able to grab a cute private-ish booth with no trouble, but I heard this place is packed/lively on a regular weekend. If you want to grab tiki drinks on a night out, consider making a reservation for a big booth/table. They can make any cocktail NA if you ask. It's super dark with cute tiki decor which was fun. Great/kind service all around! read more

Stopped by here for The Wiz on January 31st (I know, this review is LATE) and I'm so glad I did! The vibes are exactly what you expect from a tiki bar: dark/moody lighting, amazing decor, and cute little "huts" for seating. Oh, and yummy drinks of course! We stopped by around 6 pm on a rainy Wednesday so it was fairly empty. I grabbed the Coco Pandan to drink bc who can resist a drink with a popsicle!? The drink was a little stronger than expected, but u have no regrets! I will definitely be coming back in the future. Service: 4/5 Drink: 4/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 read more

Favorite tiki bar to go to when me and my bf are in SF! Absolutely love the drinks, heavy pours iykyk-- Just a beautiful vibe every time.

Great attentive service, a very cool atmosphere, a friendly server, and the tiki drinks were all delicious and on point!

One of the coolest tiki bars I've been to! Aesthetic - 10/10 So intricately designed from the floor to the ceiling! There are stars on the ceiling, an Ariel-style grotto, and intimate tables for a romantic getaway from busy SF. Words cannot explain the intricacies! Staff - 10/10 They had excellent drink recommendations since the drink list is quite extensive. If you're having a hard time deciding, let the bartenders know what you are looking for cause they will not steer you wrong! Our order: - Coco Pandan (10/10) - Seriously delicious with an Uber popsicle! It's a snack AND a tiki drink! - Disco Banana (10/10) - My fiancé loved this drink! Perfectly banana without being overwhelming or overly sweet. Check this place out! I LOVE tiki and this spot will fulfill your tiki dreams. read more

Zombie Village was awesome. We went on a Wednesday so it wasn't crowded. We were able to sit in one of the cabanas and it was a great experience all around. The bartenders are friendly and the place isn't that loud either (at least on a weekday). The decor is amazing and I love the starry night sky. The upstairs was closed but it looked cool - wish I could have explored it more! The bar is essentially in the Tenderloin, so just be aware of your surroundings if you're walking to/from the bar. Or call an Uber. read more

My favorite tiki bar in all of San Francisco! The lighting/decorations/ambiance is unbeatable. Sparkle lights with LED graphics on the walls, individual huts, a fish tank, and very cool decor on the second story. I also think the drinks are some of the best in the city. Very strong and tasty. Entering this bar makes you feel like you are on an island far, far away from the TL. I highly reccomend! read more

Zombie Village is an incredible Tiki spot in the Tenderloin. There is a large bar in the center with a thatched roof, amazing colored lighting, and Tikis. To the right are lovely, private A-Frame, thatched booths! We tucked into a booth and ordered. I had a Sparkle & Froth and the husband.. a rum old fashioned. Both were incredible. Exploring the bar, it is pretty unique but not as much stuff to look at as I thought. I would create warmer spaces on the other side of the bar and towards the back. It felt slightly odd. My favorite area was definitely the booth area. Still 5 stars and if you love tiki, you must go!! read more

Had high hopes on my first trip to SF. Got turned off by the strange guy standing next to the door offering to help me get in while standing in front of the door. I assume it was a shakedown by somebody pretending to be a doorman. I understand this was outside the premises but mgmt should be aware. Not a comfortable situation and decides to go elsewhere read more

Since I made a reservation here, I was put in a private booth that had a mini hallway that we had to walk through to get there. It was indeed private since the other booths were across the bar. There's also a section of the place where it can seat big groups in this "under water" area which was pretty cool. The staff was very friendly and she didn't forget about us even though we had a our private area away from everyone else. The theming here is beautiful and I definitely felt like I was transported to Hawaii. I ordered the Coco Pandan and the Disco Banana which were recommended as the least strong and most fruity drinks here. The Coco Pandan had a popsicle with the drink which definitely got rid of almost if not all the alcohol taste. The Disco Banana tasted sweet and you can definitely taste the banana. I really enjoyed both of these drinks. I will definitely be coming here again with a bigger group to try out their bigger groups. Also, this place is kind of hidden from the outside, so look for their tree logo sign. read more
