Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar Unveils Exciting New Menu Items

The legendary Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar—famed globally for being world-famous—continually offers fresh surprises for visitors to uncover. From highly coveted, one-of-a-kind collectible mugs and expertly crafted cocktails to robust, flavorful dishes, the lounge is packed with untold stories and immersive details waiting to be discovered.

Take a look at the new items coming soon!

Trader Sam’s has been delighting passionate guests and plenty of thirsty explorers since it debuted in 2011, serving up inventive drinks and memorable moments for 15 years.

Alongside its playful effects and captivating atmosphere, the lounge has built a devoted following thanks to its ever-evolving lineup of collectible mugs for purchase, including the latest Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar 15th Anniversary Hyena Mug (served with the Barrel of Mischief cocktail), available at the location on May 30 or through the early mobile order release on May 29!

But the story of these mugs traces back even further. In fact, the memorable establishment of Don the Beachcomber in 1933 (a Polynesian-themed bar and restaurant in Tinseltown) helped usher in a new era of dining and drinking in Southern California.

This Hollywood hotspot introduced legendary drinks such as the Navy Grog, Three Dots and a Dash, and yes, the Zombie, while also inspiring a distinctive style of presentation through elaborately designed drinkware. Over time, these creative mugs became a signature element of the experience, influencing bars and restaurants across the greater Los Angeles region and setting the stage for the collectible culture fans love today.

Over the years, the bar has released a wide collection of mugs that draw deep inspiration from Disney storytelling, adventure lore, and the classic tiki design elements. From the Jungle Cruise-inspired Congo Queen mug from 2021 to the elusive Jack Skellington Halloween mug from 2015, these pieces have become must-haves for collectors and fans alike.

There are a ton of collectibles to uncover at Trader Sam’s, whether you’re adding to a growing case for your collection at home or taking home your very first piece. Take a look above at some our favorite tiki mugs from recent years, and be sure to check out the Zombie Mug, the Piranha Pool Mug, and the Krakatoa Punch Mug (all three are available for purchase at the time of publishing) on your next visit to the lounge.
