The Royal Cocktail Club

In Porto's Baixa district, The Royal Cocktail Club blends theatrical presentation with serious mixology. An intimate spot in The World’s 50 Best Discovery directory, it combines classic structure and creative flair in a warm, retro setting.

The philosophy focuses on craft, balance, and approachability. A skilled team uses premium spirits and fresh ingredients to rework classics and create new signatures. A playful, board game-style menu makes choosing interactive.

Standout cocktails include the dry, aromatic "Rainforest," the sweet, tropical "Hapiness is everywhere," and the vibrant "Legacy." The space features bronze tones, a marble bar, and a cozy downstairs lounge.

The venue promises thoughtful drinks, but reviews are mixed. While many praise the service and atmosphere, others note inconsistencies in drink balance and attentiveness, suggesting the experience may not always match its accolades.
