Adorable little tiki bar, that is way bigger on the inside than it seems. It has incredible decor and really strong drinks! Keep in mind, you need to order your own drinks at the bar and pick them up yourself. Kind of like a British pub.

A true escape from the everyday hustle of city life walking into Pagan Idol feels like stepping through a portal into another world entirely. You can tell this isn’t just a themed bar; it’s a labor of love that honors tiki culture with genuine respect and artistry.
The cocktails are works of art in themselves.

Hire some more bartenders! I’ve never waited so long for drinks at a bar in my life! Drinks were great but not enough staffing.

Only two bartenders for a crowded Saturday night? Not the first time either. Is B&B giving up?

Long extended wait times, drink inconsistency, and a mixed experience with the staff.

Back room tender was stressed but cheerful, front bar was mostly empty but the tender had nothing but attitude.

Is this place better on a weeknight these days?

Mai Tai was a total disappointment. Agricole does not belong in a Mai Tai. The Mai Tai bowl was good.

We were just walking by exploring the city when we came across this bar. I wasn't sure what I would like so the bartender made me a drink. It turned out awesome and I really liked it. The bartender knew what she was doing and we got drinks in a timely manner.

Came for the volcano. Left due to the straight up rude bartenders that look like they don't want to be there.

Seba !

Good vibe, nice staff.

The atmosphere is amazing with a valcano that erupts once in a while. The drinks are imaginative and delicious. It very large with a lot of seating. And live fish ?
But the night we were there the music was insane. The song Sleepwalk was played over and over and over the entire time we were there. Once in a while there would be a random 60s song and then right back to Sleepwalk. Now, Sleepwalk is a great song but we felt like we were in a bad dream with that song repeating over and over. Yikes Pagan Idol. More song choices please.

This is definitely a very unique tiki bar experience with lots of Hawaiin themed seating areas. Great bar. Drink selection was pretty expansive and friendly staff to help manage it all. The drink itself however I wasn't a big fan of, too bitter and alcoholic for my taste.

Delicious and balanced tiki drinks. The bartender was able to help with recommendations (eg "what level of sweetness?") and was able to accommodate my friend who doesn't drink alcohol. Fun atmosphere as well!

Adrian is the best bartender. Super attentive to his customers. Adrian Definitely makes you want to come back when your in the city.

Haven't been back in years. I loved the addition of some incense and ambient jungle bird noises to the space. The menu has been updated with some new drinks as well. I had the Quarantine Order (I think that's the name) and it was quite nice.
