Looking for a place to chill with a great drink? You’ve come to the right spot. We’ve pulled together the most talked‑about bars from our city guides, so you can skip the guesswork and head straight for the good vibes.
Why a Good Bar Matters
A solid bar does more than pour a cocktail. It sets the mood, introduces you to locals, and can turn an ordinary evening into a memory. Whether you’re after a rooftop view in Dubai, a jazz hideaway in Istanbul, or a sleek lounge in Milan, the right spot makes the night smooth and fun.
Top Picks by City
Berlin – If you love a mix of history and modern mixology, check out the speakeasy tucked behind a nondescript door near Museum Island. The bartender knows how to balance classic gin with a twist of local flavors.
Milan – For a touch of Italian chic, head to the bar beside the fashion district. The wine list is impressive and the cocktail menu features a signature “Dolce Vita” that feels like a mini vacation.
Istanbul – After a day of sightseeing, unwind at a rooftop bar overlooking the Bosphorus. The view at sunset pairs perfectly with a Turkish tea‑infused martini.
Abu Dhabi – The hidden speakeasy in the desert‑style hotel offers a cool, dimly lit atmosphere. Their dates‑stuffed Old Fashioned is a conversation starter.
Dubai – For a truly luxe experience, try the sky‑high lounge that serves a chilled champagne cocktail while you watch the city lights sparkle below.
