In Las Vegas, it can be tougher to choose where to drink than what to drink. The Strip has a wide variety of bars that offer different vibes and can transport visitors via different experiences. Locals and tourists alike can spend a rollicking night in an Irish pub at Nine Fine Irishmen or they can listen to a live piano player as they do caviar bumps at the Petrossian Bar. Here are 11 of the best bars on The Strip.

Calling all Instagram users. This one’s for you.
Located on the Las Vegas Strip in The Cosmopolitan, Chandelier is the glittering grotto of luxury in the form of a bar, and it’s not just the decor that shouldn’t be missed. Three stories’ worth of libation lounges await you, and each floor has its own lineup of signature co*cktails with whimsical names. Try a “Glitch in the Matrix” on level 1.5 or a “Champagne Socialist” on level two, but we recommend grabbing craft co*cktails on every floor.

Who doesn’t love a good speakeasy? This elusive bar in The Cosmopolitan is not easy to find, but the reward for discovering its location (hint: it’s through a certain exit door in the Block 16 Urban Food Court) is worth the search. The Mexican-inspired co*cktail menu is the perfect pairing to one of Ghost Donkey’s unique nacho selections, such as the famous truffle nachos.
For a wild combination, pair the wild mushroom nachos with a mushroom margarita.
Minus 5 Degrees Ice Bar in multiple locations
With three separate locations on The Strip, it’s clear that this is one of the “coolest” bars in the city.
Guests can leave the hot summer sun outside and take a trip to this wintery playground. Upon entry, they are given parkas and gloves, so the only thing that stays cold is the surroundings. 90 tons of ice make up the chilly theme rooms, complete with LED lights and club music. Ice sculptures are prevalent and even the glasses are made from ice.
Parents, this is a family-friendly destination, and kids can enjoy an alcohol-free experience.
Beer Park at Paris Las Vegas
This bar has a frat house feel for adults after college. There is an amazing outdoor patio that overlooks The Strip that includes picnic tables, a BBQ set up and oversized board games. Finally, a large selection of beer and co*cktails makes this one of the more impressive drink menus on The Strip. There are numerous selections of both draft and bottled beer, with flights standing as the house specialty.

This Irish pub was actually built in Ireland and shipped to Las Vegas, where it found its home on the south end of The Strip. Bands set a delightful mood playing classic rock and Celtic tunes while Guinness flows from the taps.

Reality television star and restauranteur Lis Vanderpump has created one of the most buzzed-about lounges to open in the last few years in Las Vegas. One leaves a casino floor and enters the ultimate upscale garden party as they head into eponymous space that is part Italian villa, part summertime in The Hamptons.
The drink menu is a mix of chic, elegant and cheeky. The Nut Job is VCG’s take on the mojito while Hanky Panky is Pisco and citrus-forward. They also riff on classic co*cktails with striking presentations. Check their versions of the Pimm’s Cup, a purple gin and tonic, and a smoked black cherry Manhattan.
