Top 10 Las Vegas Bars To Visit During WSOP 2022

Let’s start off with something fancy. If you’re looking for a bit of class and sophistication, grab a drink at the Sky Bar at Waldorf Astoria. While it stands as one of the more expensive lounge bars in the city, the signature cocktails, elegant furnishing, and captivating views from the 23rd floor of The Strip are well worth the price.

THE GRIFFIN

Located downtown in Old Vegas on the legendary Fremont Street, The Griffin is a dark, smokey bar with leather furniture, a fireplace, and one of the best jukeboxes you’ll ever come across. A popular hangout for bohemians and locals alike, the drinks are cheap, the bartenders friendly, and the clientele is always interesting. Grab a drink and listen to some tunes while you wait to play the next event in the WSOP 2022 schedule.

FRANKIE’S TIKI ROOM

If you like the tiki vibe, check out Frankie’s Tiki Room. Designed by “Bamboo Ben,” the world’s premier tiki bar designer, the exotic, kitschy bar is furnished with bamboo, pufferfish lanterns, and hand-carved furniture. Featuring over 150 different types of rum and a plethora of fruit-based cocktails–all, of course, served in tiki mugs–the bar has been around since the 1960s and is open 24/7.

ONYX BAR

The Onyx Bar is located at the Red Rock Resort and offers the best whisky and cigar experience in town. This upscale drinking establishment boasts over 70 varieties of whisky from all over the globe. To complement the occasion, you can select yourself a fine Cuban cigar. The inviting atmosphere is also enhanced by live music entertainment every Friday and Saturday night.

HOFBRÄUHAUS

We can’t complete a list without mentioning a beer bar. Hofbräuhaus brings Oktoberfest to Las Vegas, so you can enjoy steins of fine German beer every night. The place offers the complete German beerhaus experience, including authentic German food, music, and a lively atmosphere. The building itself is a replica of the original Hofbräuhaus in Munich, and is one of our favorite Las Vegas bars.

MILLENNIUM FANDOM

This may be the quirkiest bar on the list. This is a cosplay bar where dressing up as your favorite fictional character is part of the experience. Fandoms link here for games, trivia, themed drinks, and events. Although this isn’t really a place where you’ll find professional poker players, we thought it was worth mentioning because it’s loaded with interesting décor and makes for a unique bar experience.

This legendary drinking establishment has a fire pit in the middle of the lounge area, and the decor makes you feel like you’re drinking in Las Vegas in the 70s. The bar also has a full-scale restaurant where you can enjoy a delicious meal. Moreover, the bar is open 24/7, so you can always stop by for a welcomed nightcap.
