Cocktails crafted with intention

Every drink tells a story — from our house-made shrubs and fresh-squeezed juices to the imported rums that bring the islands to your glass.

Hero Islands Rum Punch

Our house signature — aged rum, passion fruit, lime, angostura bitters, and a float of grapefruit on top. Served over hand-cut ice in a carved tiki mug.

The Kitchen

Small plates with island soul

Our menu is built for sharing — bold flavors that pair perfectly with a cocktail in hand. Think coconut shrimp with mango habanero aioli, jerk-spiced skewers, and our famous tiki nachos loaded with pulled pork and fresh tropical salsas.

Fresh & Local

Seasonal ingredients from Lake Champlain fishermen and Vermont farms, prepared with island techniques.

Built for Sharing

Every dish is designed for the table — generous portions that encourage lingering over drinks and conversation.

Al fresco Dining

Our lakeside patio is open May through October — the best seat on the island for watching the sunset.

Our Story

A tiki escape on the Great Islands

Born from a love of Polynesian cocktail culture and the raw beauty of Lake Champlain, Hero Islands Tiki Bar is our love letter to both worlds.

Warm tiki bar interior with lantern light and tropical decor

Where the lake meets the islands — in every sip.

We wanted to create something that felt like a secret — a place where you could close your eyes and taste the tropics, then open them and find yourself on the shores of Lake Champlain, surrounded by the Green and Adirondack Mountains.

Our bar is stocked with rums from across the Caribbean, house-made bitters and shrubs, and fresh tropical fruit flown in whenever possible. But what truly makes Hero Islands special isn't just what's in the glass — it's the feeling you get when you sit on our patio, watch the sunset paint the lake gold, and realize you've stepped into another world entirely.

Whether you're a local looking for your weekly escape or a visitor discovering North Hero for the first time, we'll raise a glass and make you feel at home.

With aloha & gratitude

The Hero Islands Team

"We stumbled upon Hero Islands on our first evening in North Hero and it became the highlight of our entire trip. The rum punch is legendary, the nachos are addictive, and the sunset from the patio is something we'll never forget."
