A great forest-like patio: Bar 8 @ Mandarin Oriental (9. July 2022)
The Bar 8 at the Mandarin Oriental is quite amazing! I would absolutely recommend you to book a table outside for a pre-dinner or after-dinner drink. It is like a small patio in the woods, which is quite enjoyable in terms of atmosphere and very charming in its setup. The only issue is if you don’t have a reservation – since the place is very crowded, so you have to be quite patient to get a table.
Once you made it there and get seated in the patio, you have to be patient. As friendly as the staff at the entrance of the bar is, as slow is the staff responsible for the subsequent handling of the clients. I ordered a “Salvaje (Tequila Don Julio Blanco, Jalapeños chillies syrup, candied jalapeños, grapefruit tonic)” (EUR 30.00) which was quite nice, but it took them quite a while to take up the order.
But again, it pays off to wait – since you get to sit in a sofa area, and it’s all quite lovely.
Just make sure to book in advance.
