About Las Vegas Bars & Lounges

Beyond the megaclubs, Las Vegas hides a brilliant bar scene — secret speakeasies behind unmarked doors, rooftop bars with sweeping Strip views, and stylish cocktail lounges inside the resorts. Downtown and the Arts District add a grittier, locals' edge.

You'll need to be 21 with valid ID to drink, and the best speakeasies often take reservations, so it pays to plan ahead.

Frequently asked questions

What are the best speakeasies in Las Vegas?

Vegas has a thriving hidden-bar scene — spots like On The Record at Park MGM and a number of Downtown and Arts District speakeasies hide behind unmarked doors, vinyl shops and phone booths. Many take reservations, so plan ahead.

Are Las Vegas bars 21-and-over?

You must be 21 to drink in Nevada, and many bars and all lounges inside casinos card at the door or when ordering. Carry valid government-issued photo ID.
