It is the beginning of another week, and we already know you are just waiting for someone to ask you out for some drinks! If you are planning to go out, but do not know where to go, fear not because today we have a really good addition to the bars on this blog! Located in the center of Budapest on Király street, the bar Rumpus TiKi Bar is easy to spot. This Hawaiian themed bar has Hawaiian straw umbrellas at the entrance and really colorful neon signs in the windows making the entrance unique and easy to spot. Although the bar might not look the biggest from the outside, inside there are quite a lot of space, and even an upstairs. However, if you are planning to stay for drinks for a few hours around the peek at around 20-21 be sure to book a table in advance as we found that would probably be better than relying on being lucky with a free table being available.
When you come inside it is like walking into a different world compared to the rest of Budapest. There are decorated all over the bar and walls with Hawaiian themed things. There are especially many TiKi masks hanging on the walls, hence the name of the bar. The waitresses wear skirts and the men wear Hawaiian shirts, and they look great. The staff is also really friendly which is always a big plus.
The bar has a wide selection of really interesting and exotic drinks. They have names such as Uliuli, Naked Ape, and Funky Monkey. They also have ‘normal’ drinks such as Dark & Stormy and Mojito. All the drinks on the cocktail menu are labeled with how strong it is and if it’s a bitter, sour, or sweet drink, which is a really nice touch. All the drinks come in these really fancy and funny cups and are presented with different fruits and edible flowers. When your drinks come to your table, they are served either in a pirate chest or a surfing board with a cup of dry ice to give a smoke effect to the presentation. It gives a wow factor and I suspect most people take a photo of it the first time, as I did. Even with all this, the drinks weren’t too expensive, and one could easily loose track of time and drinks in here, so that is a good thing!
Rumpus TiKi Bar is a really great place to visit and a big recommendation from us. If you have not been there yet, do not have second thoughts, just book a table and go there. You will not regret it.
