🍸 Bars & Lounges Venues in Las Vegas

The Chandelier Bar Cosmopolitan Las Vegas

Las Vegas Strip

The Chandelier Bar at the Cosmopolitan is the most spectacular cocktail lounge in Las Vegas β€” a three-level bar housed inside a two-story chandelier of 2 million crystal beads, where each floor offers a different cocktail experience and extraordinary views of the Strip. Las Vegas's extraordinary cocktail culture (created by the extraordinary number of outstanding restaurant and bar operators attracted by its massive hospitality market) creates cocktail lounge experiences of remarkable sophistication.

Hyde Bellagio

Bellagio

Hyde at Bellagio is a lakefront lounge with an outdoor terrace directly overlooking the Bellagio Fountains β€” one of the premier views on the Las Vegas Strip. The two-level venue serves craft cocktails to a well-dressed crowd with prime fountain show viewing, making it one of the most in-demand terrace spots in the city.

Eastside Lounge

Wynn Las Vegas

Eastside Lounge at Wynn Las Vegas is an intimate cocktail lounge adjacent to the casino floor with live musical entertainment on weekend evenings. One of the quieter, more sophisticated nightlife options at Wynn β€” appealing to guests who want excellent cocktails and ambient live music without the volume of a full nightclub.

Lily Bar & Lounge

Bellagio

Lily Bar & Lounge at Bellagio is a contemporary cocktail lounge with a chic garden-inspired aesthetic adjacent to the Bellagio casino floor. Popular for pre-dinner cocktails and as a stylish meeting point for Bellagio guests, it offers a curated spirits and cocktail selection in a more intimate setting than the resort's larger nightlife options.

Parasol Up

Wynn Las Vegas

Parasol Up is the upper-level companion bar to Parasol Down at Wynn, positioned at the top of the resort's indoor waterfall staircase. The elevated vantage point offers views down into the atrium lake while serving the same celebrated cocktail programme as its lower-level sibling.

Rosina

The Venetian Resort

Rosina at The Venetian is a cocktail bar and lounge between the casino floor and Grand Canal Shoppes. The venue specializes in craft cocktails with live acoustic performances most evenings, offering a sophisticated and relatively quiet atmosphere for Venetian guests who prefer conversation over nightclub volume.

Parasol Down

Wynn Las Vegas

Parasol Down at Wynn Las Vegas is a signature lobby bar at the lower level of Wynn's lake atrium, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the pool gardens. Known for meticulously crafted cocktails and a sophisticated, lower-key atmosphere compared to the Strip's louder venues β€” an excellent escape from the casino floor.

The Sand Dollar Lounge

West Las Vegas

The Sand Dollar Lounge is a legendary Las Vegas blues bar open since 1976 β€” one of the oldest live music venues in the city. Local and touring blues acts perform nightly in the no-frills venue near the Strip, making it a genuine local institution and essential counterpoint to the mega-resort experience.

Double Down Saloon

Paradise / East of Strip

The Double Down Saloon is Las Vegas's most gloriously grungy dive bar β€” a 24-hour punk and garage rock venue that has operated continuously since 1992. Famous for its Ass Juice cocktail, no-smoking ban violations, and chaotic artwork covering every surface. A beloved antidote to Strip glamour, steps from the Hard Rock Hotel.

Commonwealth Las Vegas

Downtown Las Vegas – Fremont East

Commonwealth is a craft cocktail bar and event venue in Downtown Las Vegas's Fremont East Entertainment District, featuring prohibition-era dΓ©cor, a rooftop terrace, and a hidden speakeasy called The Laundry Room accessible only by reservation and password. The multi-level venue is a cornerstone of the Downtown Las Vegas cocktail scene.

The Laundry Room (Speakeasy)

Downtown Las Vegas – inside Commonwealth

The Laundry Room is a clandestine speakeasy hidden within Commonwealth in Downtown Las Vegas, accessible only by reservation and a secret phone number. With seating for fewer than 20 guests, the intimate bar serves meticulously crafted cocktails to a deliberately small audience, making it one of the most exclusive and coveted cocktail experiences in Las Vegas.

The Chandelier

The Strip – The Cosmopolitan

The Chandelier is a three-storey cocktail bar built inside a 65-foot-tall chandelier at The Cosmopolitan, offering inventive craft cocktails and one of the most visually striking bar environments in Las Vegas.
