Draft, not yet public. This shortlist is a working candidate list, not a confirmed or endorsed lineup. Nothing here implies a venue partnership until it's been visited, built into a relationship, and confirmed for publication.
Tiki / Tropical · Jacksonville & the Beaches
Tiki Bars in Jacksonville & the Beaches
A short, curated list, not a directory. Every room here is one we actually want to gather in: part of the community Rum & Thatch is building in Jacksonville & the Beaches.
Red Lei Lounge
Jacksonville
A secret hotel speakeasy doing true tiki — the room most locals walk past without knowing it's there.
Wreck Tiki Lounge
Jacksonville Beach
True tiki with an actual DJ-and-events culture, a block off the sand on 1st Street North.
Flask & Cannon
Jacksonville Beach
Tiki-leaning beach cocktails, with a second location down in St. Augustine.
Mayport Garden Club
Mayport / Atlantic Beach
Tropical and low-key at the north end of the beaches.
The Lemon Bar
Neptune Beach
A beach bar rather than a tiki bar, and one of the best places on this coast to end up at sunset.
