When you need to escape from the escape that is Palm Springs, there's only one place to go: the Tonga Hut, the sister to the legendary Los Angeles tiki bar.
It’s 2022, and the Tonga Hut in Palm Springs has a phone booth. Not the freestanding kind Superman changes clothes in, but the old-school phone booth you’d find in bars or restaurants, set directly into the wall of the joint like a permanent, immovable monument. You’d be excused for thinking it’s just another part of the midcentury affectations found in pretty much every tiki bar, and yeah, that’sa part of it.
You don’t just go to a tiki bar to drink. You go to a tiki bar to escape the mundane, messed-up world we all have to toil through every day of our lives. Los Angelenos have been escaping to the original Tonga Hut since 1958. The Tonga Hut in Palm Springs has only been around since 2013, and although it lacks the years it doesn’t lack the details; you’ll feel like you stepped back into the past once you bound up its stairwell.
Don’t let that worry you if you’re a tiki traditionalist, though. The Tonga Hut takes its job seriously, with the theming and decor you expect from a top notch tiki bar. The cocktail list is full of the classics—your Mai Tais, your Zombies—but also sports a deep bench of originals, some of which can stand right alongside any of the old favorites.
