Florería Atlántico

Another one in the 50 World’s Best Bars. Florería Atlántico registers a different atmosphere to that of Presidente Bar and Nicky Harrisson.

The cocktail menu is led by one of the city’s best mixologists, Renato Giovannoni.

It is worth mentioning that the bar celebrated its festival “Festival Atlántico” receiving renowned bartenders such as Joe Schofield, José Luis León, Nikos Bakoulis, among others.
