Hala Kahiki Lounge is a family-owned tiki bar in River Grove, established in 1964 by Rose and Stanley Sacharski as a tropical oasis on River Road. The venue features more than 100 tropical drinks, vintage Hawaiian decor, and a gift shop offering Hawaiian shirts, ceramic glasses, and party favors. As one of the few remaining original 1960s tiki bars, Hala Kahiki hosts semi-regular hula shows with full Hawaiian dinners, creating a laidback island atmosphere that has endured for decades in the Chicago area.
