Island-inspired cocktails & Filipino fare with a fun vibe
"Though sadly the Filipino sports bar next door is no more, Tiki on 18th will eventually expand into that space to become even bigger. In the meantime, the bar’s excellent rum cocktails in creative glassware live on upstairs, alongside its Polynesian Filipino menu. An extra order of lumpiang for the table is never a bad idea; keep an eye out for traditional specials." - Missy Frederick
"A Polynesian-themed bar known for its long list of Caribbean rums, thoughtful interpretations of historical classics, and unique glassware. It offers a daily happy hour with drinks like $10 Zombies and $5 bites, and continues to operate daily starting at 5 p.m." - Tierney Plumb
"This dedicated Adams Morgan tiki bar is where D.C. veteran bar manager Rico Wisner stocks Caribbean rums and festive barware to create drinks that pay homage to their Polynesian roots. Filipino chef Jo-Jo Valenzuela contributes favorite foods he used to eat back home." - Claudia Rosenbaum
"The Adams Morgan tiki bar ramps up island and escapism vibes with a pop-up paying homage to The Island of Misfit Toys (beverage manager Rico Wisner’s favorite holiday classic). Look for themed drinks like his infamous Egg-N-Grog and over-the-top design from the “Queen of Christmas Bars” Adriana Salame-Aspiazu, who helped pioneer the original Miracle on 7th Street. She brings the timeless classic to the heart of 18th Street with a snowy, icy cave escape. The pop-up will run November 24 to January 5 alongside its traditional Filipino menu." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Tiki on 18th typically drops $1,500 each year to replace 150 to 200 tropical mugs that customers steal." - Lenore Adkins
