Hello,
I hope you can help me. I have a very small space that I'd like to put a tiki bar in. I'd like to purchase a slightly curved bar that is approximately 4' wide, 37"-42" high and 2' deep with no roof. Material to consist of bamboo,tropical looking wood or a combination of the two. I'd also like a few matching bar stools.
Could you please let me know if you're aware of a quality business where I could buy something along these lines. At my age building one is not an option. Quality is very important. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Bill "Tiki Fig"

Thank you for the information VampiressRN. I'm sorry we did not get a chance to say hello to you during this years Sacto Tiki Crawl. It was such a treat to see your home last year with the Martini Kings playing.
Take care,
Bill

Back at ya Bill. If you open the Midway Mall link I posted, then select mid-century, I notice a bar similar to what you are looking for...about 2/3 down the page.
Hoping to host next year, but hope to see you again before then.

I was just in Swanberg's at 2316 J Street in Sac and Lauren has a Tiki Farm boomerang bar, stools and bar-back that he can sell. You may want to check with him.
Good luck!

Oooooh...that would be good to check out...probably better price at Swanbergs plus it is good to support Lauren's business.
