About Tropichol - Tiki Bar

Tropichol is a tiki bar and taco grill in Nottingham, on Hurts Yard just off the Market Square, pairing rum blends and cocktails made with homemade juices and syrups with Mexican tacos. The drinks list includes the Pandan Piña Colada and the Zombie, and the kitchen serves tacos including Birria tacos. The bar is small and takes walk-ins.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the cocktails, and the Pandan Pina Colada comes up repeatedly, with one diner calling it the best drink they have ever had. The Zombie, Good Morning martini, Hula Hula and Blue Hawaiian also get named. Close behind is the service, with the bartenders described as knowledgeable, happy to explain drinks and quick with recommendations, and several mention a fun sense of humor and reasonable prices for crafted cocktails. The tacos earn praise too, with the Birria tacos called the best one reviewer has had, though another finds them expensive but seriously good. The recurring complaint is the service charge. One reviewer says the £5.45 charge only appeared after paying by card on a round of three cocktails and felt duped, and another found it marked on the menu in small print with no percentage given. A quieter Tuesday visit drew a more lukewarm note, with the Zombie cocktails called tasty and good enough. One reviewer was handed iced water without asking.

    “I’ve been to a lot of bars in the UK and I can say this is my absolute favourite one - the Pandan pina colada is the best friggin drink I have ever had in my entire life and they also serve the best Birria tacos in the world (got me craving them again already) - we travelled all the way from around the uk to come to this Tiki bar to try their infamous tacos and pina colada and ended with the best night ever with the amazing people there Alex, Jordy and Sophie!! To anyone in the area - this is an absolute must visit bar in Nottingham ♥️”

    “Pros - excellent happy hour price. Serious cocktails with some inventive twists, a lot going on with the flavours. Standouts were the Good morning martini, Hula Hula and the Pandan Pina Colada. The bartender was excellent, he knew his stuff and was happy to explain cocktails. Nice touches were the iced water without asking and his attention to detail when prepping ingredients. These guys are linked to the taco bar next door and are happy to order snacks for you, expensive but seriously good tacos. Cons - the service charge, I didn’t mind paying for it, the service was good, the hospitality trade is tough, but it was marked on the menu in such small print and no percentage was mentioned, although it is discretionary. See my photo and play spot the statement on service charges. Overall a good cocktail venue even at non happy hour prices.”

    “Hidden fees. 03/07/2026. £5.45 service charge makes its first appearance >after< paying on card - so watch your bill and get your calculator out to track drink prices before paying. First time visiting, looked up the website and menu before coming. Great drinks, great venue, great time but felt feeling duped. Edit: to clarify, one round which was three cocktails totalling about £25. (Plus hidden service fee). Bar empty at the time.”
