My absolute favorite bar I've ever been to I give it six stars if I could The bar seats are out of an old airplane and the actual bar is like half of a airplane passenger area The lighting is dim with old incandescent bulbs, and you get lost in time being there 10 out of 10 bar experience read more

Came here for their weekly Wednesday trivia- parking is easier to come about around the Duboce Triangle neighborhood that this is in! This review will primarily be about the trivia experience. The inside is cutely themed with the rainforest invasion style they pull off. The trivia nights require one beverage to be purchased per person in the party- I was coming off of a nasty burn in my mouth, so I asked our server what the best nonalcoholic choice would be with no citrus and she suggested the Mocking Bird. I feel that I cannot pass judgment on the Mocking Bird as a beverage since I asked for such an altering modification to the drink itself, but it was just not good without the lime. It tasted too strongly like actual alcohol. I get why they would make a rule about having one drink per patron here for the sake of their business, but I'm personally not sure if it's worth it considering even their mocktails are upwards of $15 with tax and tip. The trivia itself is very fun. There's x amount of rounds and each round is 4 questions, and you can pick whether you want certain questions to be worth 7 points or 3 points if you're certain of the answer. This pushed our team up from 9th place to 8th place! If you also are just not sure of the answer at all, the funniest answer gets a free round of shots. The night we went, the option was milk punch. I would say that it's a cute place to take people visiting from out of town or once in a while, there's also much more seating within the location than at certain other trivia bars. read more

How have I not reviewed this place yet? Hands down one of my favorite bars in SF. The atmosphere is designed to be like a plane crash on an island/jungle. So there are actually airplane parts in the bar. For example, some of the seating is airplane seats. There are also thunder sounds that play in the bar. I love it. Drinks are always good here and never not had a good time here. It's fairly popular though so if you come late, potentially expect to wait, but it's worth it. Love it here! read more

Continues to be the best tiki bar in town and there is steep competition! The drinks are so good and the service is so fast. read more

Parking: Metered and scarce. Interior: VERY cool interior that screams tiki vibes so it is on theme. Plenty of seating for all group sizes. lighting is mostly dim all around with some well lit areas. Wait Time: None as we went at opening after dinner. Drinks were made withing 5-10min. Items Order: Cocktails $16 Mocktails $14 Unfortunately the drinks were not that memorable in taste. I thought they were all around mid but vibes were good. read more

We stopped by for drinks and really enjoyed the fun tiki bar vibes here! I tried the Permanent Midnight, a rum-based coffee cocktail with coconut, pandan and banana which turned out to be too sweet for me. It reminded me of an espresso martini and unfortunately was a bit one note as I didn't get any pandan or banana. I also got the Zombie Killer, another rum-based drink with coconut, pineapple and cinnamon which I enjoyed more. This one was more creamy and better balanced. Overall the drinks are pretty straightforward the ambiance is fun. There are a good number of large tables (first-come, first-serve) and the lights which go off every so often was a cool touch! read more

This place is so cool! I came here with some friends to visit sf and it did not disappoint. We got drinks and chatted. The drinks were pretty small but delicious! We got grifters game, golden idol (add rum) and golden idol (na). Our server was knowledgeable as well. This place reminds me a lot of rainforest cafe, where the animals would come alive like every 15 min and a storm would come through every 30 min as they also had a bunch of sound and light effects regularly. It can be a lot if you aren't expecting it but definitely adds to the experience. I would definitely recommend to check this place out and I'll definitely be back! read more

Very cute bar. I would come back for a date night or to hang with friends. I especially like how there are different partitioned sections to sit in around the place for an intimate environment. The drinks were unique and nice to enjoy after a long week. The bartender also did a great job managing everyone sitting at the bar and throughout the venue. read more

Last Rites - Cocktail Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

This bar is themed like a plane crash in a remote jungle, and they don't half-ass it. The bar itself is styled like an open fuselage, the walls are convered with vegetation, and occasional sounds of thunder play through the speakers. The menus look like a cargo manifests, complete with bloodstains at the bottom, but were bit hard to read in the low lighting. The drinks were on the small side for a tiki bar, but good. We waited a bit longer than I'd like to get served given that the bar wasn't close to full (there was still open seating, no one was standing), but the service was fine. read more

Last Rites was a pretty dang fun time. The ambiance is pretty sweet, love the feeling of being inside a plane. It was also hella cool how the entire place lights up if you order the right drink, really fun. My only small gripe is comparing it to something like Smuggler's Cove, the prices are the same, but the drinks here are very much smaller and less complex. Our waitress, totally great, she was friendly, funny, and super attentive even though it was busy. We ended up smashing through 5 drinks shared between the 2 of us, and they were all very tasty, except the Emerald Eclipse... to be fair to the waitress that suggested it, and Last Rites itself, I DESPISE mezcal, and just didn't realize that's what was in it. We tried to order the Permanent Eclipse but it was not available at the time, so she recommended the Eclipse. Mezcal should be erased from the surface of the earth, and should not be mentioned in any history books. Make it go away. Walked away with some super cool Mai Tai glasses, and we were more than a little tipsy when we started our trek back to BART. I could see myself coming back here with some friends, but hopefully they get some more rum based concoctions on the menu! read more

I LOVE Last Rites. This is such a great tiki-bar with over-the-top decorations , special effects, and strong cocktails. For the cocktails: If you're looking for a no-ABV mocktail, I would highly recommend the Golden Idol [5/5]. This is so good that every time I come, I order it! We also tried the No Doctor on Board [4/5] meant for two. It has a very strong alcoholic taste. My only complaint about Last Rites is that the service is SOOO slow for a bar. Every time I've gone around 10PM, I wait around 20 minutes only to get inside and see there is no seating. read more

We stopped by for a night cap on a Thursday night, and we were pleasantly surprised by bingo! Last Rites is a solid bar right off of Church and Market. They have lots of space, great seating, and fantastic cocktails. The bathroom was clean, nice. We got menus and bingo cards, ready to play. I got the Long Goodbye: Gin, strawberry, toasted coconut, cream, lemon, spices, seltzer. Absolutely fantastic, no notes. So creamy, easy to drink, had a touch of cardamom? Big fan. I liked how we could yap in our group while playing bingo. There were many rounds. While we didn't win, it was a hoot and a half! I will def be back with friends, I had such a great experience! read more

My boyfriend and I came here for the first time and had a blast! Very cool ambience with the tiki vibes and giant skull wall haha. Kendl and Stephanie helped us and thats honestly what made our whole experience! They explained certain drinks and gave great recommendations based on our personal preferences for cocktails. We got a couple different drinks and they were all very tasty!! Overall great place, but again...it was all because of Kendl and Stephanie. Thank you both!! read more

First time here and absolutely loved it. The drinks were strong yet tasty, and the decorations were so fun. It felt like I was on vacation. The staff was also super friendly and accommodating! read more

The best way I can describe this Tiki bar is that it's like Rainforest Cafe for adults. Dark, fun, and mysterious vibes inside with plenty of nooks for friends or couples to hang out. My partner and I got the Last Rites and Grifter's Game drinks and they were strong, sweet, and beautifully presented. The servers were friendly and I loved poring through the wide selection of drinks on the menu. The only slight con (if you think it is one) was that we sat by the skull and it would randomly spew smoke onto us every now and then lol. read more

We hit up Last Rites just as they were opening on Halloween and the vibe was festive with scary movies and spidery decor. The setting is crashed airplane and the drinks are Tiki style. Sadly they had a limited menu for Halloween which did not include the drink I had planned on trying. Our waitress neither friendly nor helpful and the drinks were very light. When I questioned whether my drink was supposed to be all ice with a few sips of actual cocktail, I was told that the drinks were carefully measured. Overall, fun decor and vibe but the experience is ruined by the staff and service. read more

Second time here and the vibes have been amazing every time. The lightning is moody, the music is tastefully not too loud, and a mysterious fog in the air to really tie things together. It feels sophisticated yet perfectly delivers the tiki/jungle theme with abundant fake foliage all around In terms of drinks, I got the violet vixen and I also tried the red harvest. -- Violet Vixen -- On the sweet side (especially since there's sugar sprinkled on top) and very lavender-y. The description says lychee but I couldn't really taste it. I could taste the alcohol -- Red Harvest -- I've never tried Bing Zhou and it wasn't bad! This is on the more bitter side with a bit of a fruit aftertaste. Nomming on the leaves also provided a fun and numbing experience for my tongue. There is a lot of ice in this drink. I've also tried the Grifter's Game previously and I can only remember that I liked it since it was more than a year ago In terms of service/wait time, I did wait outside in line for ~30 minutes both times. My second time here, it was much easier finding a table since the party was much smaller. They did bring water over to us, but the cups were a little suspiciously dirty so we got new ones. Their servers will come approach you to order. read more

Last Rites was our last stop of the night and it was so much fun! We got right in late on a Saturday night. The vibe is super cool--jungle crash site meets tiki bar, with thunderstorm effects that really set the mood. We had an amazing waitress, she was super funny, attentive and she got our drinks to us very quickly, especially for how busy it was with several large parties. As for the drinks: they were beautiful and on-theme, though I felt they lacked some of the complex flavors you'd expect from a great tiki cocktail. I would say my favorite one of the night was the Zombie killer followed by the Kali Maa's Doom. Least favorite was the Emerald Eclipse, it was honestly difficult to finish. We didn't realize that it had Mezcal in it since it was suggested to us to try since they were out of what we wanted, but honestly for me Mezcal has no business in Tiki drinks so we didnt even think to check! One of the coolest parts of the night was the Caldera's Curse. Every time someone ordered it, the entire bar's atmosphere shifted--lights, sound effects, and the drink itself came out with a fiery show. Super fun and theatrical. This was an awesome way to wrap up our night--and we even took home a couple of souvenir Mai Tai glasses! I'd definitely come back, especially with a larger group, and try the Caldera's Curse! read more

My friends and I were picking a place to catch up on a Thursday night and we decided to get drinks at Last Rites. Why? Because I read someone's Yelp review that this Tiki bar was like the Rainforest Cafe but for adults and I was sold immediately. Upon entering, you're met with a destroyed plane at the bar and a giant skull in the back, what's not to love?! The menu and drinks followed the campy theme and I ended up getting their Violet Vixen, which I adored. On top of it all, it happened to be Bingo night so we got to play Bingo, savor our refreshing cocktails, and catch up with friends. Overall, had a great time and I'm excited to be back next time to try out their other cocktails! read more

Immerse yourself in a new environment giving jungle / survivor vibes. The staff were all super outgoing and seemed have fun while working. The bartender offer great recommendations + service was prompt. There are more seats in the back. I liked my Lion Paws drink (vodka, guava lemon, based). My friend's Monkey Puzzle (pisco) was good but slightly subtle and watered down. I'd still drink it though lol. Past on the Zombie Killer, which was too strong for my friend. I tried a sip and it felt like a punch in the face. Overall, I'd come back to try more of their cocktails. read more

Two of us arrived at 10:15 and wasn't let in even though they closed at 11:00. Bartender said it was last call, so we were left outside in the cold. Then two of her friends arrived and she let them in. Bouncer was really apologetic, at least. Two problems... First,if you say you close at 11:00 then customers should be let in until closing. Second, the rules should apply to everyone equally not just because you know the bartender. Sorry Last Rites, but Smuggler's Cove is getting my business now. read more

What a cool cocktail bar! The occasional lightning flashes and thunder, Christmas bulbs strung through the jungle foliage, and crashed airplane decor created a fun atmosphere. My party of six walked in without a wait at 11:30 pm on a Friday night, and we managed to snag a booth as another group was leaving. Otherwise, there were a couple spaces open for smaller parties and standing room. Table service worked out well since it wasn't too crowded. I like that the online version of the menu had pictures for all the pretty drinks. The drinks took a little while to come out, but mine was memorable and definitely worth the wait. My Violet Vixen was fantastic and tasted more floral from the lavender than fruity from the lychee. As a frozen/ice blended drink, the ice consistency was perfect and not too chunky or icy. The Lion's Paw with honeycomb garnish and Kali Maa's Doom were also tasty although the torched marshmallow and watermelon was an interesting garnish combination for the latter. The Permanent Midnight was too strong for me. Overall, I really enjoyed the drinks and vibes here, and I'd love to come back to try the Caldera's Curse punch bowl and its accompanying fire show and check out their happy hour ($10 cocktails) and bingo nights on Thursday's! read more

I went here for the first time with a group of friends on a Friday night. For our group of six, the seating was self-service, and we luckily found a table that was coincidentally cleared within five minutes. I really enjoyed the tiki bar-style decorations and have not been to another bar in SF like this. Many of their drinks fit this theme, and the photos shown on the website are an accurate depiction of what was given to us. We all ordered drinks, and I ordered the Violet Vixen and Wonton Chips. The drink itself was aesthetic, with a nice rosy/lavender color and edible flowers on top. I felt that the drink had a good blend of alcoholic taste along with sweetness, and the menu also listed the drinks from sweet to bitter making it easy for everyone to order. The chips were plentiful for $5 and quite crispy! Overall, I had a good experience here and would love to return soon! read more

Extremely well themed and executed Tiki bar just off Market. Think Indiana Jones meets Lost. The aviation themed items are great. The bar seats are upcycled airline seats from the 1960's, the back of the bar is airline windows with lightning flashes, and many other small touches threw out. Drinks are all the same price at $16, and the house Last Rites tiki cocktail is a must try. The smoldering cinnamon stick makes it! Trivia on Wednesday nights at 8pm. read more

I had been wanting to try this spot for a minute and I'm so glad I did! This is a tiki bar that has a plane crash/survivor type of theme. A lot of the chairs looks like old plane seats, there's plane wreckage about, occasionally there are sound effects of a plane crash playing, etc. Also, the drinks are absolutely spectacular! I had the zombie killer, which was delicious and even kind of complex in the flavor. I would definitely come back to try more of the drinks. On Thursday's there's bingo where a lot of the prizes are a free drink, so it's a good time to go! read more

Cool vibes like that Nickelodeon Legends of the Hidden Temple show, thunder and special effects included. You kind of have to really look for someone to get down your drink order. Drinks were cool and different from what I've seen in other places. My drink tasted like a strawberry milkshake which I loved. But my friend tried it and may have had a bit of an allergic reaction. He's allergic to nuts, and the drink isn't supposed to have nuts. But he had a bit of a reaction in his throat with my drink but not his, so I'm wondering if it's the "shaved coconut bits" that may be contaminated. read more

Hands down my favorite bar in SF. I've been here many times, and it has never disappointed. Timing is critical because the lines do get quite long but at least the inside never gets too full / stuffy. Once in, it usually takes a bit to get a seat but the vibe and drinks are all worth it! The inside decor is super cool and non-tacky looking (which many tiki bars end up looking like, in my opinion). And for the drinks, my go-to is the long goodbye, which looks and tastes like a strawberry milkshake but somehow has a nuanced spice taste to it that makes it unforgettable. read more

Super cool tiki bar that transports you to another world. It almost feels like Indiana Jones meets the Rainforest Cafe, with all the stone and greenery hanging from the ceiling, just great vibes. We came by shortly after opening and our group of 8 had no problem getting a table. We happened to walk by again later and there was a line out the door, so don't expect the lack of waiting to be the norm unless you go early. We ordered a variety of cocktails and everyone liked what they got, our server was super knowledgeable on the drinks so she was able to help guide us to ones we'd like. She also happily offered to get anyone of us something different if we didn't like our drinks. Overall a really cool spot with a fun atmosphere serving up a wide array of tiki drinks! read more

This Adventure Bar was soo much fun! The theme was a plane that crashed in the jungle, so even the bar and the seats were made from a real plane! From the jungle sounds of animals, thunder and lightning, this immersive cocktail bar is a must visit with friends or significant other. All of the drinks are so unique and really strong! The Last Rites cocktail is so strong, they limit it to 2 per person! Come by during HH (mon-wed) from 5-7pm for $10 cocktails! * Lion's Paw (highly recommend!) * Violet Vixen (highly recommend!) * Long Goodbye * Grifter's Game * Zombie Killer * Last Rites (limit 2 per person) * Caldera's Curse (serves 4) * HH Strawberry Daiquiri * HH Mai Tai  * Other cocktails from the HH menu I don't remember lol read more

New favorite tiki bar in SF! There was a bit of a wait to get in since the inside is pretty small but it's definitely worth the wait. They always have fun themes going on -- I went for halloween and there was a missing persons type theme, which was spooky but fun. The decor is on point, which elements of both tiki and whatever other theme they're doing at the time. We got the "happy birthday" drink to share among a bunch of us and it came with candles! The drink itself was very pleasantly sweet and fruity. Service is awesome; everyone who works here is super cool and friendly. We were able to snag a table in the corner for a bigger group and it was a nice spot to chill and talk. read more

Last Rites may not serve food but definitely serves up some tasty liquid treats! A misty Saturday night and the line was about a 10 minute wait. Right after walking in we got a bar seat then another. *Tiki bar tip: always try to sit at the bar. Somehow the drinks just taste better plus the bartender banter is entertaining.* First round was Monkey Puzzle for the hubs and I got Dread Ringer. I love me a spirit forward smoky bitter drink and it delivered with some funkiness. 2nd round we shared Last Rites since our date night was running out of time (had to pick up our kid aka be responsible). It was balanced tropical spiced up deliciousness. Then before we closed out we were surprised by shots from bartender Crissy honoring our anniversary (22nd!) that we noted we were celebrating.
