Is the Greatest Tiki Bar in the World Located in Michigan?

Located in Grand Rapids, Michigan is where you'll find what some people are calling the greatest tiki bar in the world.

It's hard to believe that we don't have to travel to some faraway destination to get that island vibe that so many crave. As a matter of fact, you don't even have to leave the state.

This place might just be the ultimate hidden gem in Michigan.

Max's South Seas Hideaway is said to be "a two-story urban oasis that features an immersive dining and drinking experience designed to transport guests to a distant tropical paradise bathed in perpetual twilight."

Max's South Seas was voted “Best Craft Cocktails” and “Most Innovative Cuisine" in West Michigan.

Let's take a quick look inside Max's South Seas Hideaway.

They host private events for groups of 15-85 people. Each space includes your own bar plus table/booth seating.

A buddy of mine recently went and checked out Max's South Seas Hideaway and he was blown away. He said it was "epic!"

If there's one thing I love, it's a killer tiki bar. While it's really hard to find a place that does it right, this place knocks it out of the park.

Max’s co-owner Mark did a 45-minute in-depth tour of the artifacts inside Max’s for an episode of Spike’s Breezway Cocktail Hour, a popular YouTube show highlighting different tiki bars around the country.

I'm sold! It's time to check this place out.
