Tacoma Cabana

So get this...11-day "vacation" planned with the in-laws, starting with 3 days in Seattle and followed by 8 days on a cruise! Could I find any retreat?! More importantly, could I fiind a way to Tacoma Cabana...secretly, my preferred vacation destination?! But what reason could I give to slip away an hour's drive to Tacoma?

Fortunately, those first 3 days were close quarters and we all sought our space...and I was able to convince my wife and a few of the "kids" to make the trip to Tacoma Cabana (introducing one of them to a true tiki destination).

Jason was the consummate and most generous host! What a great evening in a delightful space! We didn't get to try the food, but the 5 of us worked our way through the drink menu without disappointment. I particularly liked the division of the space with different areas having a slightly different ambience.

So worth the trip...and may have been the best part of that 11-day "vacation"! Thanks, Jason!

I live in Seattle which is 45 mins north of Tacoma. The drive is even longer with traffic but Tacoma Cabana is so worth the trip! Jason Alexander (The Bartender and owner) has won awards and if you try his drinks, you will see why. What I love most about Tacoma Cabana is that you can tell the owners Robyn and Jason are totally into Tiki culture and it shows in their bar.

If your coming into Seattle, I highly, highly recommend taking the trip down to Tacoma Cabana. You won't regret it!

Here is my full review of Tacoma Cabana:

An authentic Tiki bar less than three miles from where I grew up! Incredible. Every time I visit the Cabana, I feel like I'm in a dream. The drinks are superb and authentic (Jason knows what's up) and the food is fantastic (try the rumaki and thank me later). Can we get a Seattle location too?

We stopped by the Cabana while on the way to Seattle. My Mai Tai was one of the best and Allyson's Jet Pilot was spot on. We got the whole history for Robyn while we were there. It was too busy for meet Jason formally, but his cocktails were superb. This will now be a regular pitstop when heading north.

Great place. Jason is very knowledgeable about rums and recipes and a lot of fun to talk with. I've never had a chance to try the food but the bar is great. And their mugs are awesome.
