Inspired by the history and rise of the apothecary in Europe as well as the artistic influence of absinthe dens in 19th century Paris, Apothéke is the first of its kind. The entire experience from wandering down a hidden street to find the entrance, to tasting the first sip of a specialty cocktail made with exotic herbs and fruits – is a pleasure. At Apothéke, the presentation of a cocktail is just as dramatic as the cocktail itself. The bar is no longer a bar. It’s a stage. A chemistry lab. A theatre. A unique-shaped Austrian crystal glass is carefully selected for each cocktail, and into it, is poured a beautiful, jewel-colored liquid. This is much more than a cocktail bar – this is a cocktail apothecary.
“Went here with drinks with my friends after graduation, and we had a great time. We were definitely the life of the party. the theme was fun.”
“Definitely worth a try, great atmosphere, good place for weekend nights and awesome cocktails 🎇.. service was amazing.. worth the visit.. loved the cozy vibes in the night”
“This place serves seriously good (and cool) Cocktails 👍 The atmosphere is very cool, the resident DJ plays awesome Tunes 😎 The outside space is nice and relaxed, having lots of 'booths' to sit in 👍 The Cocktails they make are excellent, no cheap pre-mixed junk. All are made with expert skill and ingredients and they taste sublime. They are a bit on the pricey side, but well worth paying 😉 I'd recommend the 'Curios Lotus' cocktail, it's REALLY good 😎 Deffo worth a visit 👍😎”
“Now the only complaint I have is the parking. Not to say it's bad, but on a Wed at 9pm the street parking was full. Understandably, the area is very industrial, and no true parking slots available. However! There is a parking lot right across the location. Large lighted and monitored. So that was a plus, I don't mind a charge for parking, as longi have safe place for my auto. Walking across the street showed a restaurant nearby, classy and super super busy. Walking waking turn right and it's a small building with a lovely waiting room. The decor was great the outside patio was lively yet calm with great places to sit and chat. The place was not busy but as the night grew it became busier. The drinks 🍸 were tasty and the staff were friendly and professional. Just a great night for a date or a quick drink. Definitely one to visit!”
“Cool place to grab innovative drinks with a date or friends, I ordered the Coyote, a spicy mezcal based cocktail that had all the right flavors. My date ordered an old fashion which was strong but nothing special. The vibe inside and on the outdoor patio is great, it’s just a shame they allow cigs on the outside patio where everyone can smell it. Also, roofie kits being offered aren’t a good side either. Other than that, the interior design is awesome and the location gives off a speakeasy vibe.”
