Príncipe Real, Santos & Estrela


Exposed stone walls, velvet sofas and soft lighting give this apartment turned bar an intimate feel – it's a great spot for couples to snuggle away in a corner with liquid art to fuel the evening. The tablet menu cheapens the creative cocktails (€7 to €12) a bit, but the mixology is solidly precious, as is its relationship with Hendrick's Gin.
