Martini Monkey First time on the Tiki Crawl!8:00pm - 10:00 see note below!
San Jose International Airport Terminal C
1661 Airport Blvd, San Jose, CA
This hip take on the classic Tiki Bar is hidden in the most unassuming of locations: the C terminal of the San Jose airport. Get a taste of Jay's delicious designer drinks and you'll be ready for takeoff. This is probably the last chance to visit martini monkey without booking a flight, as it shortly will be located behind airport security.

Location: Park in Terminal C short-term parking; enter the terminal and head to your left (right if you enter at the baggage claim), look for Martini Monkey on the runway side; it has a Martini Glass sign out front.

Note: There is a very slim chance Martini Monkey will be unavailable this day. Please check this website on the day of the event or talk to a crawl organizer at the previous stop to find out more. Mahalo!
