Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is Walt Disney World’s version of the famous Trader Sam’s tiki bar from the Disneyland Hotel.
Like the original, it serves themed cocktails in collectible tiki mugs, and ordering certain drinks sets off effects around the room. The photos show the bar’s sign along with drinks from this visit.
The Grog Grotto is small and fills up fast, especially in the evening. There’s also an outdoor area, Tiki Terrace, if you can’t get a seat inside.
More from inside the Grotto on the same visit. See the whole trip in Five Days in Orlando.
Make tiki drinks at home
If a trip to a tiki bar gets you hooked, here’s what we’d start with for a home bar. The full list is on our Tiki Bar Gear page.
- Tiki mugs, because the mug is half the fun
- Smuggler’s Cove by Martin and Rebecca Cate, the go-to tiki cocktail book
- Beachbum Berry Remixed by Jeff Berry, classic tiki recipes
- A cocktail shaker set with a jigger and strainer
