Smuggler's Cove

Have wanted to visit this iconic tiki bar for a long time and we finally made it. They did not disappoint. Staff was awesome with knowledge and recommendations and the drinks were amazing. Went twice in three days to take it all in. If you can get there when they open, you may get lucky enough to sit at one of the two bars.

A solid tiki bar and ambience is great. Good classics, strong spins on new drinks, and a great place to enjoy with a few friends. This was the first place my wife and I went to after we got engaged. POETIC

Great Tiki Bar in the city, one of my favorites. Massive cocktail menu, knowledgeable bartenders, amazing vibes, super fun ambiance. Not super easy to spot from the street, can also get busy. Every time I come to the bay, I try to make time to come here. Don’t sleep on Smugglers Cove. One of my favorite Tiki Mugs came from here, would be great if they had shirts or coasters, I try to collect them from the tiki bars that I visit all over.

Ambiance was great. Small and cozy. Got the Hot Buttered Rum and it was soo smooth. They have an upper loft and a basement.

I don’t understand what the 1-star reviews talking about. The service was amazing. After telling the barkeeper once my name he called me after my name. Our drinks were done under 10min. Very friendly stuff. I can recommend to come before the rush like around 9pm. It’s easy to spent there 3-4h.

Very fun place. Definitely my favorite stop for the night. Very crowded, but we got our drinks fast and they were delicious!!

It's definitely a tiki bar. The drinks were strong and delicious. The decor was great, though the "waterfall" was a bit underwhelming. The bartender was friendly and skilled and the clientele was respectful and pleasant. Unsurprisingly, it got more overcrowded the later we stayed on a random Wednesday, so don't expect a quiet drink after happy hour, even on a weekday. I'd probably go back, but it felt underwhelming somehow after all the hype when it opened. Also, parking absolutely sucks in the neighborhood, so it's best to get there via transit or Lyft.
