Best-of list · Tiki Bars
The 8 best tiki and rum bars in Paris for 2026, led by Dirty Dick in Pigalle. Where to find a Mai Tai across the city. Verified by barsforKings.
The short answer
8 ranked rooms follow. How we picked is at the end of this guide.
True tiki is rare in Paris. The city has one room that fully commits, plus a handful of cocktail bars where the rum runs deep and the serves turn tropical. These eight are where to chase a Mai Tai, a Scorpion Bowl or a rhum agricole flight across the Right Bank and beyond. We verified each against current listings and venue records in June 2026, and kept only the rooms still trading.
Dirty Dick is the closest Paris gets to a true tiki bar, a tight, bamboo-lined room on rue Frochot in Pigalle that kept its old peep-show name. The rum list runs deep, and the Mai Tais and shared Scorpion Bowls arrive in carved mugs under fishing floats. Opens at 6pm daily. Arrive early, since it fills fast and takes no bookings. For rum drinkers who want the full Polynesian fantasy.
Full listing & hours →La Trinquette is a wine bar rather than a tiki room, a small, warm spot on rue des Gravilliers near Arts et Métiers, open evenings from 7pm with olives and charcuterie. It earns a place here as the calm counterpoint, the room to retreat to once the rum has done its work. For drinkers who want to end a tropical crawl on a glass of something French and quiet.
CopperBay carries a subtle nautical theme just off the Grands Boulevards, a bright, ship-clean room from a team of well-travelled bartenders. The list leans into long, fruit-forward rum serves that scratch the tiki itch without the kitsch. Open from 6pm, until 2am Thursday to Saturday. Best early for a seat at the bar. For drinkers who want tropical flavours done with restraint.
Full listing & hours →The Experimental Cocktail Club helped start the Paris cocktail revival on rue Saint-Sauveur, a dim, brick-walled room that still draws a late crowd. It is no tiki bar, but the bartenders will build a precise rum sour or tropical serve on request from a serious back bar. Go after 11pm, when the room hits its stride. For drinkers who want craft over carved mugs.
Full listing & hours →Candelaria hides a cocktail bar behind a working taqueria in the Marais, through an unmarked door at the back. The list leans agave rather than rum, but the tropical long-drink sensibility and the mezcal flights land close to the tiki spirit. Eat tacos at the counter first, then slip through. Go early, since the back room is small. For agave drinkers chasing a hidden room.
Full listing & hours →Prescription Cocktail Club brings 1930s polish to rue Mazarine in Saint-Germain, all button-tufted booths and clubby low light. Part of the Experimental group, it pours inventive serves with house-made components, including rum-forward tropical drinks when you ask. Best for a Left Bank nightcap after dinner. For drinkers who want a tiki-leaning serve in a room that dresses up rather than down.
Full listing & hours →Andy Wahloo is a kitsch, Moroccan-themed bar in the 3rd, paint-can stools and North African colour rather than bamboo. It is no tiki bar, but the loud, tropical-party energy and the long, fruit-driven cocktails put it in the same late-night orbit. The terrace fills in summer. Go Thursday onward for DJs. For drinkers who want the noise and colour without the Polynesian script.
Full listing & hours →Le Syndicat hides behind a flyer-covered facade on rue du Faubourg Saint-Denis, a deliberately rough room devoted to French spirits since 2014. Tiki it is not, but the bartenders fold rhum agricole from the French Caribbean into clever, tropical-leaning serves. Go late, and let the bar choose. For drinkers curious how French cane spirit reads against the tiki canon.
