Ounce Taipei

Great drinks and really cool concept on having no menu! The bartenders were also great. The jalapeño poppers were so good we had to order more. If I lived in Taiwan I would be a regular at this bar

Fantastic drinks and food, great vibe. Owner and bartender were super welcoming. 10/10, would go again.

Relocated to the second floor, adjacent to the kitchen, behind a sliding door, Ounce has both a romantic vibe, however there are also a larger table that can handle party of 6 and a mid sized table for 4. Apparently, they can mix up to 600 different cocktails, though we have not challenged the bartender.

Step into Ounce and transport to NYC! I spent the evening chatting it up with the owner, an expat from NYC. This bar bleeds authentic speak easy with creative cocktails from wonderful chatty bartenders. Where else in the WORLD can you find chartreuse and other hard to find liqueurs. Step aside gin and tonic lovers and let them drive leading with flavor forward tastes to meet your needs. Large, hard to find selection of whiskeys and rum too.

This is a speakeasy bar hidden behind a coffee store front. It's cute and intimate. To order a drink, you tell the bartender what flavors you're looking for and they will provide you with a few options. Honestly it was disappointing. They basically have a menu in their head and will not do anything too creative and it's just classic cocktails where you can swap out some ingredients. It would've been much easier to order if they just had a menu.

Ounce comes highly recommended on the Taipei and Taiwan subreddits and I do agree that it’s well earned credit. Sara(h) and Zach were lovely and conversational bartenders. I was asked my preferences and they made delightful cocktails that were strong. My first drink was by Zach and had Mezcal , chilli liqueur, passion fruit and something else my slightly tipsy brain can’t recall. I asked Sarah for her take on an unhinged Long Island Iced tea and I believe she used a plum Cointreau and something unexpected in lieu of the coke. I was very pleased. If you want an extra special treat, if you provide Zach with some authentic scotch bonnet he might be able to make you a Carribean jerk inspired cocktail 😉

Ounce is one of my favorite bar in Taipei. Every time coming back to Taiwan, I will come to Ounce for a nice drink. Bartender here is very nice and understand how to make a nice whiskey drink for a whiskey guy like me. It's like a secret bar and you will enter the bar from the "wall" door in the right hand side. The space is not big but the atmosphere is great for you to go on your own or with couple friends. Highly recommended and must go. Cheers!

Rad little bar! The staff is incredible. There is no menu but they will create anything your heart desires. Everyone speaks English and they are all masters of their craft. They offer food but I was on in for drinks. I cannot recommend this place enough. Go here early and often.
