These Are My Favorite Cocktail Lounges in Las Vegas

After a long day exploring all the decadent ways of Sin City, your body is sure to ask for a break. However, retiring to your room is the last thing you ll want to do: After all, Sin City is full of cocktail lounges where you can welcome the night with a drink in hand in an intimate and relaxed atmosphere.

Las Vegas is a benchmark city and a pioneer in many aspects. It sets trends in various areas and the cocktail lounge is one of them.

In Las Vegas, you can enjoy several of the best cocktail lounges in the world. Here are our favorites:

Mayfair Supper Club

The Mayfair Supper Club is a luxurious and exclusive spot, so make sure that you make a prior reservation. Found inside the former Hyde nightclub, The Mayfair Supper Club is an ultra-modern take on the classic dinner clubs of yore.

Here you will find high-end dinner and world-class entertainment. Expect excellent food and drinks, world-class service, and exhilarating live music. If you like jazz, this place will hit all the right spots.

The prices are a bit on the high side, but it s a worthy visit.

There s an excellent offering of the standard libations at all times, but some of their specialty cocktails are exceptional. Make sure to try their Despacito, made with Casamigos Tequila, Mexican lime, Agave, and seasonal fruits.

Chandelier Bar

The Chandelier Bar at the Cosmopolitan is one of the great cocktail lounges in not just Vegas, but all of the American Southwest.

Stepping into the Chandelier is the equivalent of stepping through a glittering corridor into a brand new world. All the cocktails, which include margaritas, sours, daiquiris, etc., are quite creative and even the classics are presented in new and exciting ways. The food menu is characterized by small, yet intense bites that pack a flavorful punch.

The occasional live music and entertainment are delightful.

The Underground at the Mob Museum

Found deep within the basement of the Mob Museum, the Underground is riddled with artifacts from the 1920s and offers guests an opportunity to experience a genuine, prohibition-era speakeasy! A truly unique, and marvelous experience!

The drinks are unique and expertly themed. Local favorites include the Jamaica Ginger Moonshine, or The Gem, a mixture of premium vodka, elderflower, grapefruit, basil, and egg whites.

My personal favorite, however, is the Bathtub Fizz! Made with bathtub gin , Aperol, sugar, lemon, egg white, and bitters.

Few places in the world can top the unique ambiance of The Underground Speakeasy.
