Shaka Shaka Tiki

This is my favorite spot in this neighborhood. The vibe here is so warm and cute, the bartender is genuinely kind, and the cocktails are fairly priced. Whenever I don’t know where to go, I somehow end up coming here. Love it Love it！！

This was a our last stop on a Tiki bar crawl before a pirate-themed party and we were all happy that we made it here. The drinks are excellent, the atmosphere cozy and fun, and the bartender was lovely!

Don’t know what took me so long to check this place out! Definition of a neighborhood gem. We sampled through several of the cocktails and all of them were awesome. And make sure you order the popcorn! YUM. Great music, great vibe. Can’t wait to go back.

I love it in here. Perfect vibes, friendly staff, great drinks! If you want an escape from the harsh downtown Brooklyn energy this is the spot!!

Best bar in NYC ❤️ Griffin and Garrett are the loveliest people and I've had many of my favorite nights there :)

Reviewing the late night bar, not the afternoon cafe. Extremely friendly service. Great drinks. Intimate and warm. If you can get a seat, you'll spend the rest of the night in here, enjoying the soundtrack, the friendly company and the easy drinking booze. The menu is small and concentrated on fruity/juicy sweet drinks, but the full bar will make classics as well.

Cocktails are delicious, service is incredibly welcoming and friendly, plus they have MALÖRT.

What a chill, easy and fun spot in Brooklyn! A small outdoor space and a simple interior filled with plants invites you in. The pastel, bright space makes it seem like you’re away on an island in Brooklyn. Highly recommend the popcorn and cocorita. Fresh flavors - good vibes always. Chill crowd - young and hip. Good for singles, small groups and couples.

Place is rather small/cramped but the drinks are strong. Tried the Flower Power and wasn't a fan (the mezcal kind of overpowered all the other flavors) but I quite liked the frozen pina colada (looked really pretty and tasted great).

If you're in Brooklyn, and you're a daily commuter I would highly recommend stopping by and supporting your local businesses. Shaka Shaka tiki is not your ordinary Starbucks. Instead you come across this very little tiki joint which offers cocktails, and even a light beer just so you can unwind after a long day of work or just need an escape. I would recommend sitting down in their little cafe where no one would bother you or disturb you. Have yourself Maple latte and a shot of gin, relax yourself and enjoy the ambiance. Definitely will be visiting more often because I LOVE small intimate spaces where I can unwind and have myself a beer or latte. Phenomenal coffee and better service!

Summer's here, baby! (All the vibes without the temperature to match pleaaase.) The house cocktails are so inventive and intriguing, and they're almost too pretty to drink (keyword: almost). I loved my frozen piña colada with passion fruit, which arrived looking and tasting like a lightly boozy dessert. Delightful. My friend enjoyed her Chili Lili with cachaca, passion fruit, and togarashi. They also have a couple of booze-free drinks for the alcohol-adverse (me on most days). The P.O.P. with passion fruit, orange, and pineapple juice... yes please. It's a pretty small, chill spot. There weren't a ton of people when we went on a Thursday evening, so the limited seating wasn't really an issue, but just know that it's small. We're talking a couple of tables outside and maybe 5-6 seats inside, including the two in front of the bar.

Super laid back energy. it could be pricey but it worth come in just inside is very small, if you're coming by more than 6, I guess this is not a place to hangout, but there's outside seat areas I'm not sure if you can hang out outside. ( Police station is across the street i think it's super safe) They have a very clean bathroom.

Grabbed an outdoor table at this Tiki bar during the peak of the Delta variant wave in NY when many bars closed their indoor spaces. Though we felt like we were competing for sidewalk space with the heavily foot trafficked block we were on, the cocktails were good enough to whisk us and our taste buds away to greener pastures. In particular I really enjoyed the sweet potato cocktail with ube. Unlike many other ube cocktother ube cocktails I've had, this had true ube flavor, complete with a deep purple hue and salt rim that contrasted nicely with the marshmallowy flavor. The frozen passion fruit pina colada and Tamarind Dark n Stormy cocktails were also hits. The menu is short but the drinks pack a punch.

We had some time to kill before our dinner reservation and decided to stop for a few tiki drinks at Shaka Shaka Tiki. We had a few cocktails and a beer. My favorite of the house cocktails was Chili Lili (cachaca, passionfruit, seven spice togarashi, lime, orange bitters)! It is quite small - there's some inside seating as well as a couple of outside tables. It was a great place to sit and have a few drinks on a pretty evening. Definitely check it out if you're in the area.

I want to move in here. I want to starfish in the middle of it. Cocktails are amazing, the plants are the vibes! I wish I live near by because I would be here everyday!

Great drinks! The most unique and tasty piña colada i've had. The music is good and the staff is super positive and friendly!

- awesome drinks - no bad option - small in size not more than ten seats - u might pass it if you're not paying attention - great bartenders bartenders are craftsmen - good soundtrack

Super cute hole in the wall to grab drinks with friends. We tried the Flower Power, Chili Lili and the Companion Negroni. All fantastic and well balanced. The music was also a total vibe. Highly recommend!!

I consider myself super lucky to have lived around the corner from this tiny but mighty gem. Basically feels like you're in an intimate living room with plenty of lovely plants, macrame hangers, and of course drinks made with love. Have come on random weeknights and had the place to ourselves, also on fun lively nights like pregaming for NYE. The vibe is special on any occasion. Bartender/owner has an impressive rotation of Hawaiian shirts and awesome songs on the playlist to match. You won't be disappointed.

I must say that I was not expecting such wonderfully executed cocktails from this little place. The companion Negroni was quite good and a classic Manhattan was perfect! Fun little spot worth coming out for a drink.

I enjoyed the stone fashioned. Well made and just what I needed- it's a SMALL spot. But very cool- coming from vegas. We definitely have NOTHING like it there. If I'm ever in the area again I will absolutely visit again- you should too!!

This place is one of my favorites! Super chill, delicious drinks, great staff. All of the cocktails are inventive and tasty -- pina colada is one of the best. Love coming here to get away from the crowds on Fulton.

Shaka Shaka Tiki is what Companion Cafe turns into after dark. It's run by Gary from Hawaii, and it's a pretty cool concept. Makes sense to turn a coffee shop into a bar at night. I wonder why everyone doesn't do it? The space used to be Bergen Dean Sandwich Shop (located across the street from the exterior of the Brooklyn Nine-Nine precinct. Not the largest space, but they have bar seating, and two tables. They have a daily juice special that they squeeze fresh. When we went, it was Granny Smith apple, kale, and ginger beer with gin as the mixer. It was SO GOOD. And also makes you feel like you're being healthy instead of a drunkard. Win/win! They also have a cool bathroom!

Had this place on my radar for a long time but was only recently able to go. Due to COVID, seating was outdoor, and it was quite the chilly day for tiki drinks. Just the same, the drinks were excellent and the staff extremely friendly. As it was surprisingly busy for a cold day, they brought out an additional table and chairs for us. Our socially-distanced fellow patrons were convivial and the bar seems to draw a pleasantly diverse crowd. If we lived closer, this would be our regular neighborhood bar, but maybe it could be yours!

I'm so glad we did moms night out at shaka shaka tiki tonight, the drinks were so delicious, the whole atmosphere were so dreamy which allow us to forget about all the stuff was going on for a second. :) I appreciate the music I heard some Chinese and Cantonese songs I really like, feels like home! Will come more often!

Love Shaka! It's one of my go-to places for good drinks! The bartender is fantastic, including his Spotify playlists. Would highly recommend for a great cocktail with tropical vibes. Their coffee negroni is on one of my favs. Outdoor seating: they have a few tables with overhead heaters.

The tiniest bar in Brooklyn and absolutely the coolest. My favorite bartender, Paris is awesome and makes some kick ass drinks. And the owner, Garrison is the best!

I love this place. The Hi Tai is killer. Garret, the bartender and owner, was super nice when i came here with a few friends. There is lots of nice light in here--huge windows.

This place is the best. Came here with a few friends after an Islander's game, looking to celebrate with a few drinks in a non-fratty sports bar setting *cough* 5th ave *cough*. Everything about shaka shaka tiki is on point. The bartender/owner has a great spirit and makes delicious drinks. My hai-tai was tasty and very reasonably priced. Lighting here sets the vibe, along with cool tropical decorations. They allow outside food. There's good music. There is a non-pretentious crowd. True, there is not much seating, but that's part of the fun. Skootch over some strangers and squeeze in! Shaka, I'll be back to check you out during HH/Cafe hours.

Me and my yak were just strolling the neighborhood, thinking about continuing towards Ft. Greene to grab a drink and some dinner when boom! We spotted this curious little establishment across the street from the cop shop. "What the f, let's check it out." So happy we did. Great and unique drinks with A+ service. And the music....I'm seeing it mentioned in other reviews...really solid. Be warned: You will be tapping your toes. Really a great spot. We will definitely be back. Highly recommended.

My favorite bar in the area! Lovely little nook of a place. Great staff, interesting drinks, and good vibes all around. Chili Lili is my fave.

There's a couple couple tables, and a small bar, and and and... the best music. Not just soul, but electro, Bowie, etc. It's a rich sound but you can still hear your friend and no tinnitus the next day. People were swaying a bit with their drinks, a little dancing-lite. The drinks are nice. A lot of rum in the $12 pina colata. The "juice & booze" was what everyone seemed to be ordering. The combination popcorn/nori maki cracker bowl sealed the five stars.

Really good tiki cocktails and coffee in a cute and small location. Nice staff as well.

I went here for the first time tonight and it was so lovely -- drinks were unique (I ordered a rum Thai tea thing, although there were plenty of other options I would have loved.) The owner, Garrett, seemed like a true gem (when I walked in someone was trying to take a selfie with him) and he curates a good playlist, plenty oldies and non-American songs which is great for music discovery. I will be coming back regularly!!

Neighborhood gem. Excellent cocktails. Plants everywhere. Marcrame and fruit. Garrett is friendly and attentive but leaves you to chill if you want to chill. I want to come here all the time.

This place has it all: great ambiance (lots of hanging plants), tasty cocktails made from fresh ingredients and the POPCORN. Get the popcorn. A week out and I'm still thinking of it. Bartender/owner is super friendly, the kind of guy you'd want grab drinks with... even if you weren't paying him for it. Do yourself a little happy hour favor and check this place out.

Great neighborhood place. SOLID drinks and good prices. The pina colada was amazing - get it.

In New York during the dead ass of winter and stumbled on this little tiki dream in Park Slope. Garrett the bartender is from Hawaii so I believe him. Also tried the pina colada with hibiscus syrup and I hate sweet shit but I love coconut and it was perfect, I ate the damn thing with a pineapple leaf cause I think that's what you do IDK I'm from Idaho. Also the bathroom tiling is a vision maybe come here just for that.

Another excellent polite professional place in the local area that is not pretentious and a nice place to have a drink. The owner was so nice to us and made me want to come back again. The drinks are proper. Thanks!!!! Come see for yourself.

This is a very special place. Rad music and vibe, cant-go-wrong small selection of drink and snack options, great staff.

Great pocket-sized coffee shop by day, tiki bar by night. I've been here in the morning multiple times - I come for the great coffee; the great music-I've encountered a lot of Brian Eno music here; a the guy behind the bar has a great personality - makes you feel very welcome.

The cutest place and so close to Barclays for pre game cocktails which are great and include tiki but a lot more interesting and since we are in a pandemic, a postage size bar must serve food - a great grilled cheese sandwich with salsa verde with a kick. And great music from reggae to a remake of a Stevie Nicks song. And the one server/manager/owner? is a really nice guy. Looks like the seating is all outside on 6th Ave, so go in any decent weather but go!

This was the perfect low-key spot for Saturday night drinks. Started with the hibiscus pina colada, then went for the passion fruit, and then the ube drink. All delicious and different, I think the ube was my favorite. It was the most gorgeous purple color and tasted like fruit loops and a toasted marshmallow. Can't wait to go back.

Great atmosphere, drinks, and service. It was nice to take a trip to Hawaii even if just for a night! I found my beach at Shaka Shaka Tiki bar.

I love Shaka Shaka TiKi!! This bar is amazing, the owner/bartender is extremely personable, he makes you feel like your at home. The environment is welcoming and relaxing, it helps me wind down at the end of the day and te-think where I should go on vacation. This is my go to neighborhood bar, I would definitely recommend. Also, the coffee shop in the morning is freaking amazing!!

This little tiki bar is amazing! Cozy tropical surroundings and delicious drinks. Definitely check it out!

Great drinks. Awesome vibe. Strongly recommend! The popcorn is totally worth it. Big bowl and very yummy! #smallbusiness

Great spot, great ambience. You would think something so tropical-looking wouldn't be inviting in winter, but it was super cozy and nice. I came in with a few friends, and we loved the bartender so we wound up staying for most of our night.
