Cocktail Bars in Lisbon

Red Frog

Founded in May 2015 as, by its own account, the first speakeasy on the Iberian Peninsula, Red Frog relocated after 2020 into the building of sister bar Monkey Mash, behind the press-for-cocktails doorbell. Named for Red Frog Island in Panama, it pours modernist takes on the classics with Portuguese ingredients; a five-time World's 50 Best entrant, peaking at No.40 in 2022. Reservations essential.

Agave Cocktail Lab

Foxtrot

Over 45 years old by its own count, Bar Foxtrot is Lisbon's Art Deco institution: an English-pub-spirited warren of four dimly lit rooms off Praça das Flores, with a fireplace, an interior garden and billiards tables. House creations like the Smoked Negroni sit beside the classics, and the kitchen sends out the Bife à Foxtrot until 1:30am.

100 Maneiras

The cocktail bar of Ljubomir Stanisic's 100 Maneiras, on a steep lane in the Bairro Alto, run as its own room with its own list.

Cinco Lounge

Established in 2004, Cinco Lounge has been a destination for cocktail lovers in Príncipe Real for more than twenty years, over fifty classics and signatures on the list, plus workshops, private events and even a takeaway cocktail program. One of the rooms where Lisbon's modern cocktail culture grew up.
