14 Best Cocktail Bars in Saint Petersburg

“Richard and Kenzie took such great care of us! This bar is so unique and specially curated. From the decor and seating to the unique & generously priced drinks, everything is perfect. We had such a nice time and felt so welcomed. You cannot go wrong with any of the drinks, they were all delicious. It is so shocking how well priced the drinks are when you hear the time and love that goes into crafting these unique recipes. I cannot recommend this place enough, we can’t wait to come back! xo“

“Delicious and creative menu, craft cocktails are top notch, very friendly and helpful management and service! Great spot!“

“Hands down the best cocktail bar in St Pete. The drinks are the best in the city and the atmosphere is perfect! The service is always great and for a place that doesn’t take reservations we have never had to wait. Highly recommend the dip baby dip drink!“

“I rarely write reviews but the Red Thread deserves even more than one. The epitome of service, warmth, and thoughtfulness I truly can’t say enough about this fun, singular & dynamic place. The exceptional service from Elijah and Kenzie immediately put you at home, and the food (the wings!! & Shrimp app) will keep you there forever. So excited that we found this vibe we’ve been back three times but a thousand wouldn’t be enough! We got the Dessert rose, an aromatic drink & the tequila “The Secret” as well. So balanced & beyond fresh.“

“Grace was an amazing bartender! Very fast to take our orders and make our drinks.“

“Wow such a cool vibe here! Made it very whiskey/bourbonish with decor. Loved the Cheers sign as a Boston Guy! Great comfy bar seats and so many choices of bourbon and whiskey it is crazy. Loved the old fashioned drinks and service we got will definitely be back.“

“A week and a half ago we had the opportunity to enjoy some warm soup and cognac, of course, on the patio.. chilly night. And our amazing server Colby, made it warmer and happier...he was very thoughtful and kind, brought us blankets 😀 to keep us warm, all while providing very attentive customer service. What a precious evening he facilitated for my family. I am grateful and highly recommend him!!!! Thanks so much, Colby.“

“Gorgeous ambiance, great service and delicious food. Have been twice already and will keep going back until I’ve worked my way through the extensive menu. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“2 nd Stop on Pub Crawl Happy St Pates“

“Their brunch menu is outstanding!!! Service is outstanding!!! Atmosphere is outstanding!!! Highly recommend!“

“The original location for the Oyster Bar has been transformed into a sophisticated cocktail and lounge bar with St Petersburg BEST HAPPY HOUR if you enjoy quality call liquors. Great selection of Bourbon & Whiskey and fun Shots & Shooters.“

“I took my daughter to this establishment for her birthday. We had reservations, but I noticed limited parking upon arrival; however, I found a spot. We waited a few minutes and were seated. Our server, Leah, greeted us, and we ordered beverages and an appetizer. I knew what I wanted right away, while my daughter took a bit longer and chose the lasagna. When the food arrived, the generous portions impressed us. Both of our meals were delicious. I mentioned to the server that it was my daughter's birthday. The head chef also checked in to see if everything was good. Bruce, who was fantastic, surprised my daughter with a big slice of chocolate cake and sang Happy Birthday with the crew. Great job! We will be back again.“

“I DO recommend the Casual Clam but PLEASE change the Bloody Mart mix! The 7's Bloody Mary SUCKS!“

“TIP: The Mexican Street Corn side is a MUST! Enjoyed a wonderful afternoon with excellent food and drinks at Parasol. The chicken wrap, blackened shrimp, and carne asada tacos and the street corn were excellent. Drinks were very good to. All the staff were friendly and they did not mind that we lingered for quite a long time through the afternoon.“
