I was just about to post this. It’s the only strip club I’ve ever been in.

Does urban mean black people?

I never understood the people who use the “these criminals don’t live here” response when crime happens in their neighborhood.

Who cares where they live? If you are getting robbed would you feel better if your neighbor was doing it? The red flag is where the crime is happening not where the criminal goes home to rest his head

It seems like you are really saying that you don’t want outsiders in your neighborhood which is a very privileged way of thinking. Maybe build a wall around squirrel hill?

That’s fair enough, I shouldn’t critique a place I’ve never been. I was generalizing it due to the area.

I know HH uses some of Maggie’s rums and liquors. If I’m not mistaken Maggies make some that are very hard to find in PA.

As I mentioned I’m no expert on it and I’m not even much of a drinker. I sort of dabble in the subculture and am still learning much about it. You may very well be more knowledgeable than I am on the topic.

Real tiki bars use very specific and uncommon liquors in their drinks. I’ve never been to Tiki Bar and I have a very basic understanding of tiki sub-culture but I’ve never heard it mentioned in any discussion about tiki bars. Hidden Harbor is nationally known and people come from out of state (like OP) for the sole purpose of going there

You generally aren’t going to find shit faced college kids doing shots at a “real” tiki bar either. It’s a pretty classy crowd.

Nobody is being as direct as they should so I’ll do you a solid since you are an out of towner. If you are a mature adult you want to be nowhere near the South Side (Tiki Lounge) on Friday or Saturday night.

Also post in r/tiki. Hidden Harbor has a pretty solid following in that sub.
