Mutiny Tiki Bar

First time here and wow amazing decor definitely feeling the tiki vibes while your in here drinks will let you transport your self into your own tropical oasis (strong drinks) there is no food here but we were told you could bring in any food you wanted to bring in an eat you will not be disappointed and will not notice you are in Mexican Detroit at all until you walk back outside

Lauren, our bartender, was so knowledgeable and cool. The only true tiki bar left in Detroit. It's very authentic and a must visit. Bartenders in general are cool and make great drinks. They stick with the classics, but have a few fun shots in case you're feeling wild. We ordered the Tusk of Plenty and the Cobra Fang. Boozy. A tad sweet as some tiki cocktails are. This spot is one of the few bars that still has Green Chartreuse. The Slurricane has a few splashes. Street parking is plentiful. Easy to get to. Decor is great. Total time wrap. Definitely stop by Detroit's last tiki bar.

For me, you know you've walked into a great bar when you can see yourself enjoying it in different scenarios. You can easily see yourself there with a lover because its esthetic is romantic. You can see yourself hanging out there with friends because it's also festive. However, you can also see yourself sitting alone and enjoying the warm, beautiful surroundings while chatting with the gregarious bartender. I found the Mutiny Tiki Bar quite alluring. I definitely enjoyed myself and will definitely return. The drink menu is fabulous with so many cool choices to choose from. Many of the drinks are rum based. What could be more appropriate? I ordered the banana bread shot, which was super yum, and yes, it tasted just like a slice of banana bread. It was warm, aromatic, sweet, and tasty with a whipped cream topping. I also ordered the "Tusk of Plenty." The drink came in a little elephant shaped mug, with a teeny rubber duck taking a bath inside. To finish off the presentation, sprigs of rosemary adorn it and are toasted before it's placed in front of you. The drink is also festively lit with some sort of led lights. It was much more than a drink. It was like a ritual and was tremendously tasty. My drinks were served by the most wonderful, friendly bartender. I really enjoyed chatting with him. He took the time to explain some of the liquors that I was unfamiliar with, which helped me make the right choices for the evening.The drinks are moderately priced for sure.Parking isn't too plentiful on Vernor, but it's on a corner, so there's side street parking.Munity Tiki Bar is more than a neighborhood bar. It's actually a tropical escape.Go check it out, I  promise that when you walk in, you'll immediately be transported to a tropical hideaway.

The decor and ambiance is wonderful! Din lit but such a cozy tiki vibe! Love the drinks as well so many to choose from!

Absolutely outstanding small local Tiki Bar. The cocktails are a combination of adaptations of Tiki classics, as well as few of their own creations. The three that I have tried were very good. Bartenders were friendly and engaging. Amazing collection of exotic rums from around the world. The ambiance is pure classic Tiki with a few contemporary touches. Mutiny is small, but at least when I was there, on a Sunday evening, not crowded. I suspect that's not always the case.There's no kitchen, so they don't serve food. But they are fine with you bringing in your own.Parking is on-street.Great addition to my collection of tiki bars. Highly recommended!

No food at this establishment just a little Jimmy Buffit. Ask for Alejandro awesome waiter and good friend. Music here is from a good 70s and 80s you are going back in time at this place. For now I can pretty much figure out that this place is pretty good for a night out any night of the week.It's pretty mellow for anyone that just makes the world a better place . So if you are changing the world come to the Tiki. That is all.Chief Not everyone wants fame or fortune, some just want love.

We were celebrating NYE at home this year and I wanted to treat my husband and mom to a little something special to sip on so I stopped into Mutiny to see if they still offered beverages to go. I don't know if they still regularly do it but they told me they could help me out that night, which I was very grateful for! I ended up ordering 3 drinks and they bottled them up and sent me on my way. There were supposedly 2 drinks per bottle but they didn't quuuuiiiiite get there. IDK if they add a lot more ice than we did to each glass but we all poured our beverages into standard sized tiki mugs and it shook out to be more like 1 1/3 drinks per bottle, which made the price point for each pretty high. BUT the drinks were delicious and NYE was a special occasion so it was ok. But IDK if I'd do to-go again.What I DO know is that the bar itself is awesome (very colorful and fun), the staff was super helpful and accommodating, the drinks were very good, and the price points on-site were more reasonable. So I'd definitely come back again but next time I'll stay in the bar.

We'd just finished dinner at Flowers of Vietnam down the street and wanted to continue exploring a bit before heading back downtown. I found this spot on Yelp so Nate and I walked in and managed to grab the last two-top table all the way in the back by the bathrooms. The vibe is kitschy with the decor on the ceiling. The music was SUPER loud, especially near our table. It made it a bit unfortunate to try to carry on a conversation which is not my favorite.The menu includes 12 drinks, all reasonably priced at $11-$14. I got the fortress and Nate ordered the peg-leg. The fortress has a garnish (I think it was rosemary) that they torch at the table. Our server lit it on fire and then just walked away. I don't know, I was thinking maybe he'd tell me I could blow it out, or just let it flame out? I ended up blowing it out after it burned for quite a while. I don't think it adds anything to the drink itself, it's just a bit of a show. Kind of cool but I don't need all my drinks lit on fire. The drinks were okay, but nothing super special. We finished them and then waited... and waited... and waited as our server kept going to every table near us except ours. It would've been comical except I really wanted to leave at that point. It took forever to get our check so plan extra time if you're going before a dinner reservation. I've been to plenty of tiki bars in my lifetime and this isn't really one I'd need to visit again.

Our first night in Detroit of course has to include a tiki bar! And boy did we find a good one! Right away, we were amazed by the ambiance and the bartender was so welcoming! Drinks had: planet of the apes, piña colada, puka puka, and peg leg parlay. The highlight of the night was the banana bread shot! Such a great time.

Weird. Overpriced mediocre and slow to arrive drinks with 5 people in the entire place. Rude bartender who scoffed at the thought of making a blue Hawaiian at a tiki bar. Wont be back.
