Max’s South Seas Hideaway is the most ambitious tiki bar to open in the Midwest in decades | two downtown floors housing one of the largest collections of new and vintage tiki art anywhere, wrapped around a rum program with national reputation. Reservations recommended, especially event nights.
Max's South Seas Hideaway
A world-class tiki temple hiding on Ionia | people drive from Chicago for this rum list.
Immersive enough that older kids gawk | but the room is built for grown-ups.
Ionia Ave destination bar | reservation crowd plus arena spillover on event nights.
