What Heather R doesn't like about Pagan Idol:
Huge disappointment. Worst pina colada in the city. the mule wasn't good either, we left with full drinks because they were unbearable even tho I tried so hard to drink it cuz it was like 20 dollars and were very pretty. Awesome building, great decor. The guy who took my order was short for no reason and not friendly by at stretch and they certainly weren't busy. Way too many good tiki bars around for me to ever go h... View all feedback. What Jeffrey Silverman likes about Pagan Idol:
Probably the best tiki bar in San Francisco, and one of the top 2 or 3 in the entire Bay Area! Great decor, ambiance, service, menu, showmanship, and drinks and I went on a somewhat crowded Friday night with no stage entertainment! The flaming bowl I split with my group was excellent and the scotch/coffee/chocolate drink I had (topped with a toasted marshmallow and cherry) was a delicious desserty drink! View all feedback.

Best Tiki Bar in San Francisco. The decor in the upstairs back bar really takes you to a different place. A Polynesian place.

The drinks here are super strong and the atmosphere is amazing. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

The winning drink? The quarantine order. The runner ups were the drinks named after birds. Fun place to stop by and get a sense of SF and tiki culture.

Stopped in for a quick drink . This is a good spot from a price and vibe standpoint with average tiki cocktails.

Vibe of this place is so much fun. It’s lit always even on the weekdays. The drinks were good too.
