Lacus - bubbles & gin — Restaurant in Bardolino

I visited in early September with two friends, and I’ve been meaning to write this review ever since! Usually, I like to explore different spots while on holiday, but this bar was so fantastic that we went twice in our two-night stay in Bardolino. These are hands down the best cocktails I’ve ever had—and I’ve had quite a few! The bar is run by a wonderful couple who clearly have a passion for every detail. Their creativity in crafting each unique cocktail is remarkable, and the menus are just as impressive. The wording perfectly reflects the flavours and the tastes and smells they evoke. The bar itself is cozy and stylish, with a relaxed yet incredibly welcoming vibe. I recommend stepping out of your comfort zone and trying one of their original cocktails—you won’t regret it. I never imagined a mushroom cocktail could taste so good! The lingotto was my favourite - I’ll definitely be...

Vale, Lacus - how often can you say you arrive as a stranger and leave as friend? Not that often, right? Here you can - 100%. The owners are super friendly and make you feel super welcome and right at home. Food is really nice and the cocktails - really really good. A must for Gin enthusiasts and even if you're not that into Gin, here you will learn to love it. They also have their own brand called Lacus (obviously). If you don't like Gin, they offer all types of bubbles, spritz, assorted wines from the region and just pure atmosphere. I'll definitely be back. Gracias por una noche tan...

We had an awesome night here. The vibe was super chill and cozy, and the cocktails were seriously good. We tried five different ones, all with different bases, and every single one was delicious.

But honestly, what made it special was the people. Everyone working there was just so positive and clearly loved what they were doing. You could feel their energy—it wasn’t just a job for them. They talked about the drinks with such excitement, and you could literally see the joy in their eyes. That made the whole experience...
