Tiki Bar Reviews

Completely biased, politically-incorrect, and opinionated ratings of Tiki Bars around the world. 

At this point in "Scotty's" life he has achieved professional status when it comes to judging Tiki Bars.  He is on a mission to find the  best Tiki Bars around the world.

The following ratings are based solely on Scotty's opinion, so opposing opinions will most likely be ignored!  :-)

LOCATION
I found this place with my friend Kurt on our way down to Bahia de Los Angeles, Mexico to go deep-sea fishing.  This is a land-locked Tiki Bar along a 48 mile stretch of rough dirt road. What????  A Tiki Bar getting a review and it's NOT on the water????  Well, this place hit it out of the park on Bizarreness, so it definitely gets a review.

     This "Tiki Bar" was along 48 miles of dirt road.  Other than one Federale checkpoint there is nothing else out there.  The temperature was 109 degrees!  Air conditioning????  I don't think so!  As you can see in the pictures, the proprietor has no legs.  He offered Kurt and I a good selection of beers.  After ordering, he disappeared into the back and quickly returned with "dos cervezas fria".
     Coco was very concerned for us driving through the terrain ahead and warned us of the treacherous hole-ridden road for the next fifteen miles.  He told us he drives his big truck down this road once a week for supplies and it is Very Dangerous! Now here is a man with an obvious physical set-back driving a very big old truck worrying about us with no handicaps and driving Kurt's new 4WD SUV!  (We did tear off one of Kurt's new fenders, though.)

BEER-O-METER
Cold, cheap beer in the middle of nowhere while the thermometer is registering 109 degrees!!!!  Need I say more??

BIZARRENESS
I said that bizarreness is something that "you know it when you see it".  Well check out the pics.  This place has Bizarreness in Spades!!!
