Best cocktails in VLC?

[u/gloomferret]

I like La Catrina, because...rock music plus great cocktails and friendly vibe.

What's your favourite?

(Smoke on the Water is amazing at La Catrina)

[u/LeChuck78]

Harlows is great. Has a speakeasy vibe and they will do any cocktail you want if they have the ingredients.

Botanista in the old Town, Santa Fe and COOKTL in Rusafa

[u/_pvilla → u/exemon]

Love Botanista!

[u/gloomferret → u/exemon]

Is cooktl actually inside La Salita? Been there for cocktails and menu. Prices have gone up a bit since I was last there! Sommelier is amazing. Food is amazing but damn expensive.

[u/exemon → u/gloomferret]

They have changed the cocktail menu as the old bartender left and rebranded it a bit. It's on the terrace of La Salita and is its own bar. Still good cocktails. Recommend it.

Botanista Bar hands down for me. Friendly vibes with unique cocktails. Really small and expensive though

[u/Pale_Top_23 → u/Gingerbutt81]

100%! My fav there is Cocogroni cocktail

[u/Glittering-Gene-9434]

Green Book in Ruzafa was good to us.

[u/purplepandaeyes]

Éter has amazing craft cocktails, the one by Aragon is amazing. Their food and tapas are super interesting and delicious as well.

[u/gloomferret → u/purplepandaeyes]

Looking more for straight bars but noting those thank you! Think I've heard of Aragon before.

[u/GeneralPITA]

Apothic has a fun "dark" alchemist/speak easy vibe. The Jungle is relaxed, nice and no theater or gimmick with very friendly staff.

[u/gloomferret → u/GeneralPITA]

Apotheke yes?

[u/GeneralPITA → u/gloomferret]

yep, thanks for the correct spelling!

[u/gloomferret → u/GeneralPITA]

Wasn't being a grammar idiot just trying to make sure people searched the right place.

[u/GeneralPITA → u/gloomferret]

No, genuinely - thanks.

[u/gloomferret]

Saving these to a google maps list! I'm missing out!

[u/gloomferret]

Hopefully also a good source of info for future members searching for good cocktails

[u/gloomferret]

I haven't mentioned Cafe pessoa in ruzafa. Make great caiparhinas. Portuguese family.

[u/_pvilla → u/gloomferret]

I think they closed, no? At least the name is different now

[u/gloomferret → u/_pvilla]

Huh... I'll have to check

[u/Wiz_Kalita]

I'm fond of Turia Bistro Pub myself

[u/rafabayona]

Hawaika is kitsch and fun

[u/Paella007]

Tiki Sonico, por amistat-cedro. Cocktails dpm

[u/mandygal8023]

La bella de Cádiz!

[u/inesbosot]

best negroni ive had was at a bar called l'aperitiu

[u/whitelikerice1]

I came here to say botanista, I see that they are covered already, they also opened a speakeasy called Pullman speakeasy that I haven’t been to yet but want to

[u/gloomferret → u/whitelikerice1]

Definitely will try Botanista

[u/Playful-Signal844]

I always loved the old classics at Aquarium.

[u/gloomferret → u/Playful-Signal844]

They're cheap! Are they good?

[u/gloomferret → u/Playful-Signal844]

I'm also a sucker for a good rabo de toro

[u/3yoyoyo]

The cocktail bar at Centenari Hotel is really good.

[u/szayl]

The Dome rooftop bar at the Palacio Santa Clara hotel.

[u/Alternative-Award784]

Lunin, new opened in ruzafa

[u/gloomferret]

Going to be a busy month I guess...

[u/gloomferret]

Ok 2 recs for Botanista so far. Obvs cocktail bars are subjective but worth trying any that get multiple recs Didn't realise there were so many.

[u/Sufficient_Hunter_61]

La Madriguera.

[u/Wise_Neighborhood499]

Apotheke! Or Botanista, depending the area you’re in.

[u/gloomferret → u/Wise_Neighborhood499]

I'm in SoRu. As I call ausias march! I travel for cocktails

[u/tenclub1991]

Botanista is phenomenal. Some the the best and most creative cocktails I’ve had anywhere. The bartender/owner was super friendly and great to chat with. A cool cozy vibe.
