Dramatic rum cocktails & Asian-inspired snacks rule
"Nachos get an Asian twist at this U Street tiki bar. A heaping pile of chips is topped with Sichuan-spiced ground beef, red pepper relish, jalapenos, and sour cream. Tame the heat with a tropical rum-filled cocktail." - Tajha Lanier, Travis Mitchell
"Archipelago, D.C.’s rum-fueled drinking destination at the corner of 12th and U Streets NW since 2016, will serve its last mai tai on Saturday, August 26. Polynesian-styled Archipelago was also known for Asian dishes like dan dan noodles, mapo tofu, and crab rangoon dip." - Tierney Plumb
"Sippin’ Santa’s nationwide pop-up takes over the D.C. tiki bar with a sea of festive rum drinks and beachy decor starting Friday, November 25." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tierney Plumb
"Arguably D.C.’s most well-known tiki bar, Archipelago is a place to share fire-topped, large-batch tiki drinks and affordable pina coladas during happy hour. Try the Pineapple of Hospitality (one of the ingredients listed is “secrets”). People who aren’t into rum will find a refreshing change-up with a drink called If The Phone Don’t Ring, It’s Me, which has bourbon and aperol. The bar is currently requiring vaccinations and has curbside pickup available." - Missy Frederick
