Joshua HaftelJanuary 11, 2016Might be my new favorite cocktail bar in Vegas, and you wouldn't expect it from the typical Vegas hotel lounge first impression. Unique spirits, great mixers, and a super knowledgable staff.Upvote8Downvote
✌Maryanne DiazFebruary 14, 2014Not your average "Lobby Bar". Classy, craft cocktails by true mixologists, and a cool spot to people-watch. Always our 1st stop when we bar-hop @ Cosmo. Cheers!

EaterMarch 28, 2013Ask for Roger Gillespie to shake up your drinks. Let him go off the menu with cocktails such as the Cross Stitch with a 12-year rum, whiskey, Benedictine and set on fire at the end.Upvote21DownvoteUpvoted Jan 5
This is the best cocktail bar on the strip, hands down. Try any of the signature drinks and you will be impressed; this place stacks up against the best craft cocktail bars in NY and SF.UpvoteDownvote- Gerard HeidgerkenSeptember 4, 2011The only place on the strip I've found to get a true quality drink. Extraordinary classic cocktails by true artists, well versed in experimentation and matching your drink to your tastes.Upvote3Downvote
Kylie MatsumotoAugust 27, 2021Seems like a sitting area at first since it’s next to the lobby, but I think this is an underrated bar at Cosmopolitan. The cocktail concept is cool, with sets of 1 old and 1 new version of a cocktailUpvoteDownvote
Shaun EarsomOctober 14, 2013I don't know about the bartenders being sharp. I asked if they only had London dry gin. "Oh no sir, we also have tanqueray!" I had the last word. Delicious and blended, but I can't vouch for the staff

Jason SorensenAugust 7, 2017Great drinks. Classic Vegas-style lounge decor and ambience. Wonderful area for people watching!Upvote1Downvote
Mike McCarthyDecember 2, 2013I know you're thinking... "just another lobby bar"... BUT NOT SO... this is mixology at its BEST! Try something you wouldn't normally gravitate towards... you'll be glad you did. It's all good here!UpvoteDownvote
Allison M.October 13, 2011Voted one of the best bars, make sure to try one of their signature drinks or just ask the bartenders to make you something different. You won't be disappointed if you're into classic cocktails!UpvoteDownvote
The pink one is called The Seger and is not as sweet as it looks. :) The Mayan has got spicy chili powder added that sneaks up on you! Both are excellent choices! Only at the Vesper @The Cosmopolitan.UpvoteDownvote
Will BertelsenApril 20, 2014The Prolgue is a take on a Last Word that incorporates the very piney St George Terroir gin and pine liqueur to great effect. The trees, they are us.UpvoteDownvote
The Cosmopolitan of Las VegasJanuary 21, 2014Sip a little bit of history at Vesper Bar, like the Williams Of Orange, named after the Dutch king that introduced Gin to the English.Upvote2Downvote
This is the only high volume craft cocktail bar in the world that's open 24 hours.Upvote6DownvoteUpvoted Feb 13
Spencer BrownellNovember 4, 2014Josh Balbontin is a great mixologist! Just tell him what you like and he can elevate it to places that you didn't know existed!UpvoteDownvote
Rachel MercerNovember 26, 2012You can get free (albeit weak) drinks on the floor that's 20 feet away. However, the people watching at this lobby entrance after 2am makes the $10 drinks totally worth it.UpvoteDownvote
Vesper is stocked with awesome spirits. New Tequila—Oprah's Fav—Casa Dragones, is carried here. It's top dollar, but well worth it, some of the smoothest stuff you'll ever try.
UpvoteDownvote- The Cosmopolitan of Las VegasOctober 2, 2013Take your taste buds back in time with classic cocktails from the late 1800s to early 1920s infused with a modern make-over.Upvote1Downvote
Lars BullJanuary 14, 2016Very nice bar with a lounge atmosphere. Knowledgeable bartender, great service.UpvoteDownvote
Rick ValenzuelaJuly 27, 2013Unfortunately, though named "Vesper," they actually don't serve a proper Vesper cocktail. They are missing the hundred proof gin and hundred proof vodka to go with the Lillet Blanc. #jamesbondUpvote1Downvote
Jay BrownOctober 26, 2013Jessica is a world class Mixologist. I just three of the best drinks I've ever had in my life. Worth every pennies.UpvoteDownvote- The Cosmopolitan of Las VegasOctober 10, 2012Many of the signature drinks here incorporate fresh herbs for a surprising and refreshing take on classic cocktails.Upvote44Downvote
A friend turned me on to 'The Mayan,' a great cocktail which isn't on the menu, but well worth asking for.UpvoteDownvote- @Ms_Terree Gonzo Gourmands Facebook PageFebruary 25, 2013They have the best hotel/casino attitude adjustment bar on The Strip! Staff is sharp & bartenders are knowledgeable.Upvote6Downvote
Windows Live Photo GalleryJanuary 5, 2011Stand at the edge of the lounge area and shoot straight through the middle of the video pillars. The presence of the mirrored ceiling will give you a great effect.Upvote17Downvote
Pim VerkerkApril 29, 2016This is a great place to watch people while enjoying a good cocktail.UpvoteDownvote
Best Moscow Mule! Hands down. It's not served in a copper mug, but it don't matter.Upvote2Downvote
Totally reasonable cocktail prices. Ask for Rodger or try to get him, great honest bartender. He'll take care of you.Upvote1Downvote
Chris MasonJanuary 6, 2013The 12 Year Itch is the way to go...even if you just try an ounce. Fantastic Barrel-Aged cocktail.UpvoteDownvote
Patty RathbunNovember 12, 2014Excellent selection of liquors. Great for people watching.UpvoteDownvote- Stephen SmytheMarch 8, 2015Epicurean craft cocktails in the Heart of a Vegas new classic hotel.UpvoteDownvote
Aaron ZeligmanFebruary 25, 2012Try any of the mule drinks. The descriptions might be confusing but order one anyway. They are great!Upvote1Downvote
J CrowleyMarch 28, 2011See Chris aka AUSSIE! This is one of the best mixology bars in Vegas. If you're complaining about 20 min to get a drink, then you know nothing about craftmanship. Go to a generic bar to get your shit.Upvote3Downvote
BestofLasVegasAugust 22, 2011If you love Belgian Beers like we do. Try the Delirium Tremens or Chimay Blue Cap. Both equally delicious.Upvote3Downvote
The Andalucian Maria is incredible!!! Bryant makes an amazing cocktail.UpvoteDownvote
George is a great mixologist! Get the Moscow Mule for a nice kick of ginger.Upvote1Downvote
Jazmin HuppOctober 24, 2011Just tell them the type of things you like and trust them to make you the best cocktails you've ever had.

Kaitlyn BurnsAugust 31, 2014Quieter bar in the Cosmo - always the most interesting charactersUpvoteDownvote
Jeff UMarch 8, 2011Rarely have I actually had to wait 20 minutes in a cocktail bar for a drink. Having been in swanky cocktail bars around the world, I do have to say, longest wait ever. Screw you Las Vegas.UpvoteDownvote
Jeremey BarrettNovember 12, 2014Good bar, they know their stuff. Drinks tend to be a little dry.UpvoteDownvote
Definitely order One Night in Bangkok - their take on Ramos Gin FizzUpvote1Downvote
Get the Mayan - the chocolate covered bourbon & cayenne infused cherry is life changing ~ for a cocktail junkie ;)UpvoteDownvote
Barbara HahnAugust 13, 2011Best handmade drinks ever! No mixes here -- everrytjing is from scratch. Try a bloody mary!UpvoteDownvote
Eric OJanuary 24, 2013Don't be afraid to ask the bartenders for help when trying to select a cocktail!Upvote1Downvote
JK GrenceAugust 18, 2011The staff here are wizards of booze par excellence, some of the finest cocktailians in all the land.UpvoteDownvote
- Ok they don't have a "signature" per se but many many great old school cocktails. This is the Moscow Mule. Refreshing!UpvoteDownvote
