About
At The Coconut Club, we provide a luxurious escape into a forgotten world where everything may not be exactly as remembered, but stays true to the very essence of Tiki, paying homage to the glory of yesterday while sailing forward to a blazing, sun-drenched future of power and pleasure. We’re constantly dreaming up new ways to bring our patrons into this world, and hopefully, after an evening with us, their minds will expand and they will come to understand that the Revelation of Tiki is a living thing, a passion handed down through the ages that twists and turns and evolves into ever increasing new shapes, sights, sounds, tastes, and sensations.
The path to Tiki Paradise isn’t a single road–it’s a flowing river of molten magma, with a multitude of fiery tributaries all blazing their own distinctive and unique paths to exotic delights. Join us on this epic adventure and together we will rediscover and return Tiki to its rightful place.
Food
“I love the whimsical, escapist aesthetic of a good Tiki Bar, but I’m disappointed by generic feeling drinks and lackluster foods that many have to offer. The Coconut Club was born out of my desire for a Tiki Bar experience that matched my culinary ambitions. “

Having previously worked in the animation industry on show’s such as Cartoon Network’s Robot Chicken, Andy brings a whimsical aesthetic to his culinary creations. You can hear him talk food as co-host of The Table Set Podcast and also as frequent guest on comedian Doug Benson’s podcast Dining with Doug and Karen, where he’s cooked up everything from a ‘Jackalope Taco’ to deep-fried bagels!
Beverage

Entertainment
“Vintage hula music, Blue Hawaii-era Elvis, Mai-Tai’s, fezzes, and Hawaiian shirts are a part of our history, but what about the forgotten allure of Thunder Island or the dreamy passions of Kokomo? What about the “Hard Ticket to Hawaii”?”
