Cocktail Bars in Graz
Graz cocktail bars range from Caribbean-leaning rooms to a keeper of the classics. The best cocktail bars in Graz include Rangoon Cocktailbar, a small bar in Lend with cozy window seats, where bartender Amado Grullon Rodriguez mixes fresh, fruity drinks with a Caribbean vacation feel. Cohibar brings its own Caribbean and Cuban twist to the Univiertel, with a street-side garden in summer. Kalte Ente, a day bar on Sparbersbachgasse, makes its own liqueurs, bitters, infusions and ginger beer, and The Churchill Bar keeps to classic cocktail craft, with a Negroni Siciliano among its signatures. Rangoon takes table bookings online. These are the five we would start with.
- Bar AmouroCocktail Bar
Bar Amouro
Bar Amouro sits inside the Aiola Living Store on Schmiedgasse in central Graz, and it grew out of Amouro, the house aperitif: a fruity wine-based vermouth meant to keep summer going whatever the weather, served as the Vermutivo in a turquoise and yellow bottle. The room plays deep blue against rich yellow with golden accents, velvet, padded walls and hidden corners under bright chandeliers. Service runs from breakfast through lunch to dinner, when the kitchen sends out Levantine sharing food such as taftoon bread and meze, alongside Asian dishes served under the Miss Cho name. The drinks list shows Amouro in its many guises, next to a wine list of reds, whites and rosés.

Cohibar brings a Caribbean and Cuban feel to the edge of the Graz university quarter, with South American sounds and relaxed service. The cocktail list runs from classics to new creations, and more than 150 premium cigars are on offer, alongside tortillas, tacos and burritos from the kitchen.

Kalte Ente
Kalte Ente takes its name from a 1950s punch of white wine, sparkling wine and lemon, which the bar reworks with Prosecco, soda and a house syrup of Madagascar vanilla and Austrian lemon balm. Behind the counter the team makes its own liqueurs, bitters, infusions, ginger beer and lemonades for a list of unusual and classic cocktails. There is a hidden garden, and payment is cash only.

Katze Katze
Katze Katze is a cocktail bar at Schmiedgasse 9, entered through the Landhauskeller, with a courtyard season in the warmer months.
