Creative cocktails & intimate speakeasy vibe with unique presentations
"The cocktail scene in Portugal is booming, thanks in part to Red Frog, a groundbreaker that has earned a spot on the World’s 50 Best list. The speakeasy has the intimate vibe of a bar from the Prohibition era, but the drinks are made with modern techniques involving gadgets such as centrifuges, rotovaps, and sous-vide machines. Think seaweed from Azores mixed with vodka and rhubarb, or Greek yogurt in a cocktail with pet-nat and brioche distillate. To eat, a short but efficient menu (with olives, jamón, and bell pepper hummus) pairs well with the alcohol." - Rafael Tonon

"To get into Red Frog, you must first meander through Monkey Mash Bar and find the closet door (another option: just ask the staff). Behind that door is a meticulously designed speakeasy with green wood-paneled walls, ornate chandeliers, and plush couches where you can get cozy and touch knees with your date. This is a craft cocktail kind of spot, and the menu is based around unexpected ingredient blends—the Zeppelin Funk Punch pairs earl grey with buttermilk and gin, and the American Gangster is a mix of bourbon, maple, cinnamon, and cocoa. It’s a popular bar but tiny, so reservations are essential. " - rita geraldes
"Speakeasy bar, a little nook serving ultra-creative drinks, tucked away inside Monkey Mash, another bar owned by the same team." - The MICHELIN Guide
