Kapu Kai transformed a stretch of Cucamonga into an exotic Polynesian escape during the height of America's tiki bar craze in the 1960s. This legendary establishment brought the mystique of the South Pacific to Southern California's Inland Empire, complete with bamboo architecture, tropical cocktails, and the intoxicating sounds of Hawaiian steel guitar. As one of the region's premier tiki destinations, Kapu Kai became a cultural phenomenon where locals and travelers alike could experience an authentic taste of island paradise without leaving the mainland. The bar's authentic Polynesian atmosphere and signature rum concoctions made it a cornerstone of California's mid-century tiki movement. Part of our Vintage Tiki collection, celebrating the defunct golden era bars of yesteryear.
