Reply to comment by ThatsNotFennel in Is there any sort of tiki subculture in the Philadelphia area ? Not seeing much of any tiki bars on a Google search by CVM525

Phila. Distilling, R&D, FriSatSun, Vernick have some of the finest and most creative cocktail programs on the East Coast. Also notable. LMNO, Suraya, Condesa, Irwin’s.

I mean I can't speak to their management, I don't even know who that is, but from someone who isn't in the industry, the bartenders make a great drink and are super knowledgeable.

All good spots, but nowhere close to the finest on the East Coast - in my opinion. There's really only one guy in the city who I would classify as world class, and he doesn't even have his own bar in the city.

We may not have the quantity of a Manhattan, but places like FriSatSun, a.bar, R&D, Ranstead Room absolutely rival the best of the best
