In Summer 2019, my family and I went on a big trip to LA for my cousin’s wedding. While we were there, of course, we took full use of the more pleasurable parts of the city, and less of the busy wedding stuff. While we were there, we went to Disneyland in Anaheim, and this was a nearby bar located on Disney’s campus.

I really enjoy tiki bars, tiki culture, and tiki drinks, and this is the place to be in Anaheim if you like that kind of stuff. I have always been interested in tiki, especially since I came to OU and have been old enough to enjoy the beverages myself. I have been keeping a small home bar, and prior to my visit I had been leaning into the tiki drinks, but Trader Sam’s was the first legitimate tiki bar I had been into, and it really solidified my experience with tiki. Some day, I want to open up my own tiki bar just like Trader Sam’s.
