    Never expected what we saw when we walked in the door. This is a super cute tiki bar close to Starland Yard. They make the best drinks! We will definitely be coming back with more friends!

    I'm a tiki bar lover, so when in Savannah I sought this bar out. Street parking is available. It's a true tiki bar with great decor, solid drinks, and great branding. We left with a cool mug to add to the collection. Bartenders were super helpful and friendly. I love sitting at the bar to watch the action, but there is a variety of seating on two levels. They also have great bar snacks to soak up the alcohol. The second best part was the live music which was starting just as we arrived. A man named Noah was playing that evening and he was excellent. Super authentic tiki vibes and great bartenders make for a good night.

    This place has such a cool vibe and eclectic decorations! We visited on a Wednesday night so there weren't many people inside. We sat at the bar and our bartender promptly came over to offer us recommendations and take our order. Our bourbon drinks were tasty! We will be back as we want to experience it on a busier night! It would be a great place to hang out with friends in a casual bar setting.

    This is by far probably one of my favorite tiki bars from the ones I have gone to! The atmosphere was perfect, the decor was so well done and more of a modern/coastal tiki (not sure exactly how to describe it) but everything about it was great and I really loved the vibe! Our bartender was Brick and he had amazing flair! He really knew how to prepare all the drinks and it was fun to watch him! He was also super attentive! It wasn't busy at all, but we were also there on Tuesday (on purpose). We ordered a couple drinks each, and each one was super tasty: 1. La Noche Ardiente (my favorite - I love a good spicy tiki drink!) 2. Painkiller (classic!) 3. Jungle Bird 4. Isle of Hope Would definitely recommend and come back!!!

    Water Witch is a tropical getaway nestled into a Savannah neighborhood storefront. This tiki bar isn't a speakeasy - you can stroll right in sans password. The interior is well decorated, floor to ceiling, with island themed goodies and no shortage of bamboo. The bar boasts an impressive menu of tiki drinks, including a few larger, group drinks. They serve up a few small bites like nuts and pretzels and a couple appetizer type dishes. Their menu has guava cheese buns but when I ordered, they were out. Bummer. Got the spicy pretzels instead and they paired well with my relatively sweet drink. The bartender was friendly and helpful and the establishment was super clean. Fun bar, relaxed vibes, high alcohol content. Cheers!

    Water Witch is an amazing tiki bar tucked in the trendy Starland District. This was one of the first places we hit up when we got to Savannah and it would definitely be a regular spot if I lived there. It's super low key so great spot to have a drink after work, start/end the night, or just stay as your destination. Drinks were great and came in unique and fun glassware. Bar tender was friendly and gave us some recs for what to do in town so total win.

    This hidden gem is located in the Starland district just a short walk from Starland yard, next a great Japan Street food restaurant and The Vault restaurant and street parking is available. From the sidewalk this hidden gem doesn't give much away but once you enter you find that it's actually a tiki bar. There are tall tiki statues, and theme mask along the walls and around the tables. It's dimly lit to make it feel cozy but still bright enough that you can see the menu and your party. I've been visiting twice. Once during the summer and I had a tropical fruit drink with rum and again right after thanksgiving. They made me a coconut milk eggnog served in a frosty mug which was fun and super cute and then a coconut milk margarita which was delicious. The house sangria is also delicious and made fresh. The staff have always been super friendly and knowledgeable on allergies and what is good to mix with what. I've never been great at being at to figure out what I want mix drinks wise. I like that they can whip up something base off my mood and my allergy's.

    Water Witch does not look like much from the outside, but is a cool tiki bar once you step inside. It's a bit off from the downtown, which meant it wasn't so busy and we were easily able to get a table, despite a larger group. We ordered at the bar, the bar tender was friendly and good with his recommendations. Lots of drinks with fun names and in theme glasses, from sharks to lite barrels. Great spot!

    A simply excellent tiki bar across the board. Bartender was fantastic for suggestions, mixing and commentary on some of the drinks they made. Atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect and what you'd want in a tiki bar. Drinks were well made and incredibly unique. Can't recommend enough.

    We were wandering around the Starland District when we decided to seek out a cocktail bar. When I saw the Water Witch was close by, I knew we had to give it a try (4.5 star average tiki bar? Yes, please). We walked in and it's like you're in a different world. They definitely leaned into the tiki theme and I'm here for it. We sat at the bar but there's plenty of table seating as well. For my first drink, I got their pier pressure, which is a tiki-tinged version of an old fashioned. It was a delight. For my second beverage, I got their tiki-negroni, which was also great! The service was lovely throughout our visit. Amazing mixology + fun atmosphere + great service = an amazing evening at Water Witch! Get to it!

    Awesome drinks. Great Piña colada and the espresso martiki was phenomenal. Great music. Awesome service. Aiden was super nice and eager to provide a great vibe. Def a must go to place

    I absolutely love this bar! The bartenders are so awesome and the vibe is super fun. My cocktails were delicious. They have live music too. I highly recommend this place.

    Water Witch Tiki Bar at Savannah, GA: a bit far from downtown, 80's music (not tiki themed), hipster modern atmosphere, insta-friendly. Unfortunate construction noise. https://www.waterwitchtiki.com/menu/ - Savannah Planters punch - El presidente - Edge of the earth* - winner - Hemingway slushie (very rum forward) Sleek decor, cool interest wall of mugs/plants/knickknacks. Bar, with open table seating next to bar, a few hi-top tables beside bar, and two comfy small-group seats near entry door. Unique glass float "chandelier". Food options weren't enticing but we did buy their cool octopus/barrel mug (which they gave to us in a bar towel cuz they had no packaging stuff on hand). Drinks were ok. Service was minimal. (Water witch was open on Mon, when bamboo room was closed)

    See all
