There is plenty of seating and is centrally located by the Cashier and Beatles entrance, The Center bar is a great place to meet up before heading out to your afternoon or evening destination. They are well stocked with beer, wine, and spirits. The service is great. They have bar, high top, or lounge seating. The TVs are over the bar though.

This was a nice place to meet with friends and grab a drink. But, be warned, just like every other bar on the strip, it’s spendy. A simple glass of Coke is $6. My 2 buddies each paid $15/drink for theirs. Good place, centrally located, lots of seating and good music.

We were sitting at a table and not served, we went to the bar to get drinks, the bartender said we had to wait for the waitress, problem, the waitress was not servicing the tables. She was busy talking at the bar with employees instead of helping customers. Whoever manages the center bar needs to get trained on what waitresses need to be doing and not allow a bartender to also not serve customers who are trying to buy a drink in your bars. Poor service all around.

Located near the iconic Mirage atrium, this is a nice place to chill and have a drink. Based on the time of day, this spot will be filled with people or just a few. The bartender was friendly and his service was good.

Had an old fashioned. It was delicious. Good service and good drinks. Stop here if you're in the Mirage!

This is a very typical but highly functional bar on the lobby floor of the Mirage. It is staffed well and provides prompt service for drinks. In the evening, there is a live band playing there, and you can sit and enjoy their dated but still fun to listen to songs. I would recommend this bar over others at the hotel due to its operating hours, central location, and service staff.

We stopped by this place for a quick cocktail after attending a concert 2/2/22. Nice little bar. We enjoyed the two guitar guys playing and taking requests. We ended up staying 2 hours. When we arrived we waited about 10 minutes but there appeared to be no wait staff we figured due to staffing shortages so we went to the bar. Very nice bartender made great lemon drop martinis. After about 20 more minutes two ladies came from the back area and took drink orders only to disappear again for about 30 minutes so we ordered directly from the busy bartender. Fun little stop but reccomend going straight to the bar for your drink.

On the evening of 5/7/23 around 10:30 PM My girlfriend and I started at the lobby bar where we had an amazing Lemon Drop martini. Wanting a more exciting experience we went to The Center Bar where there was a DJ pumping our old jams! We ordered another Lemon Drop martini since the Lobby Bar one was so good. The drinks took forever to come, I would say at least 3 songs. Once they came we both took a sip and 🤢 yuck was horrible! We wanted to exchange the drink for another vodka drink since this one was terrible. We saw the waitress talking to the short stocky guy, with the short ponytail who was working last night, we saw him look over at us and throw his arms up. But then he proceeded to our table where he practically yelled at us telling us the ingredients in the Martini. Yeah, we know this is our favorite drink. He went back to the bar where he continued his tantrum making our new drinks. We walked out before the drinks came, we were both angry and upset. He ruined our good time at The Center Bar with his attitude. Someone needs to remind him about customer service and for 20 bucks a drink he needs to talk to the guys at the Lobby Bar on how to make it! We ended up going back to the Lobby Bar where they were friendly and made a good Martini.

I have been to this fun bar several times and have always had great service with delicious drinks. This particular time we had above and beyond service from Lazaro. We asked him to make us some fun cocktails and he could make whatever he would like. He gave us (3 of us) a watermelon mojito, a ginger mojito and a cantaloupe mojito. All tasted really good however the cantaloupe mojito was incredible. I have never had one made with Cantaloupe before and now I am going to be asking for that any time I am in the mood for a mojito. Wow was that good. he was great with conversation. Mentioned he has worked there over 30 years and he knew his stuff. What a great bartender! This time it was pretty slow as it was during the day, but at night this place pretty much turns in to a mini night club. Great beats by a DJ, and the same great service and cocktails.

Decent enough bar in the casino area of the Mirage. It is a good place to grab a drink. The service was friendly and you have a good view of the action within the casino. Good bartenders and cold drinks close to the casino make this a good place.

Attended the Mirage for D.L. Hughley comedy show last night. My husband and I decided to stop at this bar for a drink and a app before attending the show. The bar was quite crowded. We made our way to an empty spot at the bar. there was only one seat available so my husband had me sit down while he stood waiting to order our drinks. While we were waiting , approximately, 3-5 min later an caucasian woman approached the bar and stood beside my husband. The bartender, Arnold, approach the area where we were, so my husband caught his attention and asked him if he could order drinks. The bartender, Arnold, without even responding nor acknowledging my husband looked past him and asked the caucasian woman standing beside him if she was first in line. "Ma am were you in line first ". We were all shocked , even the caucasian women was shocked. She looked just as surprised as we were. Why he just assumed the white patron was there first is a mystery to me and instead of asking my husband if he was first, he chose to looked past home to the white patron. Although, My husband was the one originally speaking to him, he looked beyond him and directed the question to the lady. The lady was shocked, she stated quickly "No", that we were first. I witnessed first hand white privileged although she chose not to excise this white privileged, what if she had? It was a very offensive and rude racist act of the of the bartender. The white patron was shocked as well. She looked apologetically at my husband and stated shocked , " I don't know why he asked me if I was first. I don't know why he did that". My husband smiled and explained that was just what being a black man in this society goes thru on a daily basic.

Aptly named bar. Center Bar is in the center of the Mirage casino floor. It makes it easy to find and get to from most places. Good drinks but way overpriced. The bar is too loud if you're just hanging out and talking. It's overpriced like any casino bar. Pay up for basic wells even. They at least are strong. It's about $12 for a very basic cocktail. They can make more complex things and for not much more so get that since you're already paying a lot. Has typical overpriced cocktails at a casino bar. It has a pretty good location. The bar is in the middle of the casino so it's easy to get to from anywhere by there.

The absolute best drinks. They were $15 each, it I truly got my money's worth. I had a margarita and later on nursed a Long Island iced tea. Each being equally delicious with just the right amount of liquor. I sat with each visit and drank my drink at a leisurely pace while enjoying the scenery. The bartenders were busy but very friendly. This part of the hotel I thoroughly enjoyed.

Center bar is a great place to enjoy a drink while either on vacation or just getting off of work. I enjoy the service and creativity that the workers provide. From my last visit, Chris Monares was the bartender who took care of me. His creativity alone is enough to blow my mind due to his extreme passion in his craft. During my last visit (and many other visits) he has taught me so much behind bar etiquette and such. The best part about this bartender is that he always forms a tight connection with his customers. He always finds a way to connect with the customer whether it be with his personal life or with a cocktail that he comes up in his bag of tricks. If anyone decides to visit any bar on the strip, please give center bar and Chris a try. I promise, you won't be disappointed :3

Fun cozy bar in the middle or CENTER of The Mirage. I met up with three fun booze drinking friends before an event at the Mirage. This place was perfect and intimate for that little one drink meet up. As for the specialty cocktails, this place is a true hit for those who enjoy a classic cocktail aka ME! I am a True Cocktail Darling so I do love a Fabulous Dahling, Cocktail! The menu is pretty swanky with cocktails listed by decade, era and so on. The prices are about what you would expect for the Strip but the cocktails on the menu are not. You would be surprised what you would find on the cocktail menu. Also, with your YELP check in you can get a free Fireball shot with a beer purchase. Luckily, one of my fun booze drinking friends ordered a beer and I got the shot. How generous of him to offer and how generous of me to accept! So for those Cocktail Gents and Cocktail Darlings this is a fantastic bar on the Strip with even more fantastic cocktails. Yas!

Presently surprised how much we enjoyed the Center Bar located in the center of the Mirage. The drinks were deliciously strong, and the service was great! I also appreciated how much thought and care the staff of the Center Bar took into providing a clean establishment, and enforcing the social distancing policy.

Conveniently located inside Mirage hotel. Service is fast. Drink all you want but in moderation because they have everything. Beers and hard liquor. Keep your tab open...

Aptly named, this bar is smack dab in the middle of all the action at the Mirage. It's modern, large, and has ample seating for anyone that wants to either pop in for that cocktail to meet his evening Vegas date (snicker), or to close out the night with friends in their lounge seats. One thing that isn't so obvious, is the quality of their cocktails. I never come here without opening with their espresso martini, and closing with.... well, something with whiskey (I can never remember, but I never wake up with a hangover, so that's a good sign). Perfect for people watching, and running in to a random celeb. Service is excellent, and while a bit pricey, is completely in line with Vegas standards.

Great bar! The bartender that made our drinks was hella cool! We came in with the MLife Vegas rewards 2 for 1 drinks and he recommended 2 different drinks White Russian with vanilla grey goose and a similar to that drink with chambord in it! Oh man this was bomb man! Too sweet! Great conversation as well with both bartenders on our side of the bar.

Located in Mirage hotel Casino on The Las Vegas Strip. A very groovy place. There is a Yelp checkin offer of a free shot of Fireball with an order of a beer. They have an incredible cocktail menu. The menu has all the classic cocktails from ages gone by. I mean who has a Side Car on the menu? The Center Bar, that's who! They also list the year the cocktail was invented. As an added bonus thre is great people watching. So I say make a special trip and try a vintage libation. Live It Up You Are In Las Vegas For Cryin' Out Loud!

Going here because the sports bar in the casino was fully booked for one of the NFL playoffs, and the fiance's friends from Alabama wanted to meet me. It was fairly easy to find a spot to sit at, but the waitresses were kinda slow to clean up the small center tables, and get a second round of drinks. It's the typical experience we can get at any bar on the Strip. As far as customer service goes, the waitresses are alright. Not very personable, but I did like the friendliness of the bartenders in comparison. They're a lot more chatty.

My drink was weak, but service was super fast. And the bartender that served me was very friendly. This bar is conveniently located in the middle of the casino at The Mirage, and features a plethora of TVs for catching live games, news, etc. Plus, extra seating, including tables, surrounds the bar on all sides for small groups. Unfortunately, I didn't see the Yelp check-in until I was leaving, but I should've looked first!

This is a newer bar that's right in the center of the casino by the atrium. They have some interesting drinks but they come with quite the price tag of $12-14 each. There's lots of seating at the bar and also lots of couches and chairs. If you're staying in the Mirage or happen to be nearby it's worth at least checking out the drink menu and see if anything interests you. If they weren't trying to "Vegas price" you on the drinks it would've earned an extra star.

This is a great bar literally in the center of the Mirage gaming floor. If you want to people watch--this is your place. Always some sort of sports on the TV's. Bartenders are friendly. (Go see James--He is awesome) servers are nice too but we seem to sit at the bar most times. Fully stocked bar (even Fernet) We have met some interesting people there. Check it out!

I go in yesterday and sat in a chair. The blonde waitress saw me and I even signaled for her to come. She doesn't. So I sit and wait while I watch her wait on everybody else. Then, a place at the bar opens up and so I go sit there. I mean like right in front of her. Bartender can't serve me which is ridiculous. And he didn't really care. After 10 minutes he tells her. She still never comes to serve me. She served everybody but me. She intentionally isn't want to wait on me. Not sure why but she didn't. She actually argued or had some kind of words with the bartender about it. We finally leave only to find out that this dump is the only bar open in the hotel so Wes, the security manager, assisted us and got breanna to help us and she did a fantastic job. I gave two stars because of wes and breonna. That bartender is lazy and that waitress is terrible. Shame on you. This cannot be the first time this has happened. She did everything not to serve me. I waited 15 minutes with no service and she knew it

The bar is conveniently located in the center of the casino (read: Center Bar). We stopped in for a beer before our 10pm show at the Terry Fator theater. The prices were typical strip prices $7 for a beer and $12-15 for a specialty cocktail. We only had beers, so I can't comment on the mixologist talent. We sat at the bar. It was Friday night, lots of patrons, busy in the casino. The bartender was quick to get our order and bring the drinks. There was plenty of additional seating in the bar area, such as high top tables, couches, and low tables. The cocktail waitresses were busy coming in and out of the bar filling drink orders. Bottom line: this is a typical casino bar with typical prices. It's not a destination bar, rather a stopping point to grab a drink. Local tip: if you're drinking beer, stop in the gift shops for cheaper beer rather than the casino bars!

While waiting for the Beatles Love show, we had two fairly epic martinis here last night. An interesting mix of a lemon twist, AND a dirty martini, it floated my boat right down the red carpet. A pleasant surprise from a casino bar.

a newer bar that recently opened here at the Mirage hotel The hotel needed to renovate and add something like this, it's location makes a lot of sense since they can catch a lot of the crowd from Cirque du Soliel show (Beatles Love) in close proximity to it. It is an ideal spot to meet up with people since its central location (that's why its the Center Bar) makes it easy to find. It used to be the casino cage/cashier and had a few host offices too. It is an open area design, with plenty of seating to sit back and watch the casino crowd only gave it 3 stars, even though it was nice and new, not any different from most hotel bars like it, and it was needed for a long time here (minus 1 point for tardiness!) I found it to be a bit too noisy, but that should be expected, given it's location great place to have a drink and meet, but definitely not good if you want to have a conversation ....well, maybe that's good if you don't feel like talking to your spouse/date? :-) in any event, because of the noise level, ended up going to it's sister bar right next to it, the Parlor Lounge

Sliding up on the bar, I decided to test their stocks. I asked if they had absinthe, they did. Randy, the bartender, was happy to help and his mixology and people skills were on point. The only reservation I have about this place would be price and the other bartenders. It's nice, loud and good on mixology.

We came here after the Terry Fator show on a Monday night. All the tables were pretty much taken but there was an opening at the bar. It took about 5mins for the bartender to take our order so wasn't a long wait at all. I noticed that whenever someone new came up to the bar, the bartenders were pretty good at greeting and getting their order as soon as they could. It's a nice clean bar to sit at and enjoy a drink. I ordered a whiskey sour and it was made pretty well. I'd recommend this place.

We stopped here for a cocktail before heading to dinner. The drinks were great and the waitress was friendly and quick. Typical drink prices for Las Vegas, but it was a good pre-dinner drinking spot with a view of the casino floor.

Cocktails are very expensive (Think 25 dollars or so for two drinks) but the service was great and the bartender gave good drink recommendations when I wanted a specific liquor but didn't know what drink to get.

n the center of all the action at the Mirage lies the Center Bar. Located right between the Beatles box office and the atrium. The location gives you a great view of the casino and to just people watch from your table. The drink menu listed the available bourbons, but not the scotches. A little odd. So, I had to walk up to the bar to see the selection. Randy was the bartender. We had a great discussion of the different varieties of bourbons and scotches. He definitely had a good working knowledge of both. We had a fun time deciding what drink would go best with the cigar I had brought. Silly, but, I appreciated the time he took. Really a great guy. Also, a shout out to our server, Kali. She was just as friendly and attentive and patient as you could hope for. A really great place to relax and take a break from the tables or machines.

Stopped here for a quick drink after dinner. Very nice looking bar. Definitely lots of seating. Wasn't too busy for a Friday night but service was a little slow. Drinks start around $14, I had a mojito. It was ok but nothing worth bragging about. They also have a cigar menu available, little pricey tho $20-$40. Good to just grab a quick drink and go.

Had a lot of options to visit a bar at Mirage and we chose to visit the Center Bar. We sat at a table near the back, it was cozy and the service was great. Can't remember her name but she greeted us promptly and brought the drinks pretty fast. Drinks are reasonably priced, you get a good amount for the $. Our favorites were the mojito and the old fashioned. We will definitely be back during our next trip.
