TiME Social Bar — Restaurant in Venice

This bar is a treasure. Yes, spritz and wine are great to enjoy in Venice but it's just as worthwhile to enjoy exquisitely crafted and innovative cocktails here.

First, the menu. Currently, their theme is the seven deadly sins. Who doesn't love a great theme? The drinks' names are as innovative as their ingredients. I went for a gin (?) based drink, infused with, among other things, caper brine, tzaziki, dill and mastika. They served a cracker with feta, cucumber and olives on the side, and yes, this drink was all these things and more in liquid form. Just brilliant, one of the drinks I'll remember for a long time and just very enjoyable for lovers of savoury things.

Then, they encourage guests to order off the menu and be surprised. I got a classic, delicious mezcal old fashioned, my partner got a hot, spicey whiskey drink with just a hint of sweetness. Delicious! Service took some time when the bar was crowded. We didn't mind because 1) it was worth the wait, 2) of course it takes time to prepare drinks which are ordered off the menu (and casually smoke or flambée them) and 3) it is very nice to savour the drinks for a bit and enjoy complimentary water and grapes without being rushed to consume alcohol quickly or leave. The bar is quite small, we were lucky to snatch up the one very comfy sofa in the room.

Last but not least, great value for money, we payed abou 80 euros for 6 cocktails. I guess you could spend much more money in Venice for mediocre, not at all...

Located 50m away from Canareggio's crowded main Street, Time Social bar features outstanding cocktails, not only taste-wise, but also aesthetics-wise, which is to me a core element to enjoy a cocktail even more. Alex is doing a great job at twisting the pre-existing coctails into something more meaningful, adding value (unlike a couple other places where their twist is either meaningless or detrimental) Overall, I've tasted 3: Italian Champagne, Dark n' Stormy and Smoky Boulevardier. Each of the latter two (along with Mrs Robinson), featured layers of taste, which is what I expect from short drinks, rather than a medley. Italian Champagne and 1492 (which my partner had), on the other hand, were refreshing long drinks where tastes melted together just great.

Extra point for the casual atmosphere with outstanding playlist (Queens of the Stone Age, Arcade Fire, etc )

A++++, would consider coming back to Venice to enjoy these...

While visiting Venice me and my partner searched to find a cocktail bar. Time popped up and was top of the list with the best reviews and now we know why. Time was an absolute Gem and everything about it was fantastic, the service, the atmosphere and most importantly the cocktails. Salvatore - His service was impeccable, he came to your table and gave you the tremendous knowledge he had about all the cocktails which made it easier for you to choose the one that suits you best. Alessandro & Linda - The magician's behind each drink, these wonderful cocktail makers really went above and beyond to produce some of the finest cocktails I've ever had. An amazing experience and if you're ever in Venice make sure you take a trip there, an unforgettable...
