The lobby bar at ARIA Resort & Casino is elite-level people watching, truly best in class . If you enjoy soaking in the energy of Vegas while sipping a great drink, this is a great spot. We stopped in for a quick refresher after a long day of shopping, and it was exactly what we needed. The hostess was clearly running nonstop, but she never missed a beat, attentive, calm, and completely collected. She took our order promptly and brought over waters along with dill pickle popcorn, which was a fantastic (and addictive) snack touch. The bar area itself is beautiful and very well designed, with plenty of bar-top seating plus comfortable lounge areas featuring chairs, tables, and couches. Whether you want to sit and chat or just relax and watch the scene unfold, it works perfectly. An excellent place to recharge the batteries, take in the vibe, and enjoy a well-earned drink before heading back into the Vegas action. read more

Located right next to the lobby (thus the name) and close to the check-in counter, the bar is a nice place to grab a drink. Since it's not located inside the casino, you'll get lowered volume, where you can actually have a conversation without screaming over the casino noise. It's also right outside of a few restaurants, like Catch so great for an after dinner drink. I've only been here a few times, and the drinks menu does change. Everything on it from my recent trip was new. Each time, the gentlemen behind the bar were courteous and provided good service. Prices for drinks have gone up, I noticed, but the Lobby Bar is still a nice place to chill. read more

Great bar and easy to find in Aria. Very busy!! Lots of conferences it seemed. The bar was pretty tiny but decent seating around. The bartender was thoughtful and nice. The margarita was excellent! read more

While visiting Vegas for the Cowboy Carter tour, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to try one of Beyoncé's Sir Davis cocktails. The official Sir Davis Instagram had posted a list of select locations offering the specialty drinks, and the Lobby Bar at Aria was one of them -- so of course, I had to stop by. This cozy little bar had a great vibe, made even better by a live saxophone player who was an absolute gem and really added to the ambiance. I ordered the Honey Bee cocktail, which tasted like a spiked lemonade -- sweet, citrusy, and with a strong whiskey kick that let you know it meant business. The bartenders were super kind and took the time to answer my questions about the Sir Davis collection and the flavor profiles of the other featured drinks. You could tell they were just as excited about it as I was. If you're staying at the Aria or want a classy drink in a chill setting, this is a must-visit. read more

Was passing through Aria when my ear caught the sweet sound of a saxophone. Tracked it to Lobby Bar. Atmosphere: Saxophonist Justin Young (YouTube justinyoungsax) on deck was a very enjoyable listen, and doing his best to lure potential patrons into the space (worked on me), free roaming the floor during his jazz/soul sets. Couches very comfortable with mobile tables at excellent reach distance and height. Open to the lobby; Aria's clientele not as prone to provide free entertainment as might be enjoyed at other venues though, at least on the night of my visit. Liked the look of the blue marbled carpet, and view of the lobby's sparkly Lunar New Year display. Drinks ($23 each) Espresso Martini: Volume for the price rather unimpressive. Taste had, to me, a strange bitter funkiness. Menu described the cocktail as "finished with caramel flame" so was hoping for actual fire at the table but unfortunately not. Cosmopolitan: Fruity and sugary with a hint of sour. Liked it better than the Martini. Which is pretty much damning with faint praise. The tiny rosebud clipped to the rim was at least a cute touch. Both In my inexpert opinion, these are the kind of cocktails which bring on headaches. Cosmo in particular felt batched over crafted. Value: Not there for those particular cocktails. I've enjoyed better quality drinks at fairer prices even on the Strip. YMMV. Pity as the venue was otherwise appealing. Service: Rosamund as server was prompt and pleasant. read more

Sat at the bar and enjoyed a drink while waiting for our room. We sat on the end so we had room for our luggage. Bartenders were friendly and helpful - - and had a nice selection of tequilas. read more

Loved this little bar! Packed but not overly crowded. For drinks, the Cosmopolitan cocktail came with a lovely rose and a cute glass. The drinks also came with a popcorn , a nice little addition for side snack. And the server was super nice. Highly recommended! read more

As I get older and my tolerance for rowdy, noisy clubs dwindles, I've become more drawn to the quiet and relaxed atmosphere of hotel lobby bars. Aria's Lobby Bar nails it with top-tier liquor and cozy seating. Pro tip: if you're using the MyVegasApp, you can score a free cocktail (up to $25), so plan ahead. We love escaping the casino noise for a pre-dinner drink, and their complimentary snacks -- especially that pickle-flavored popcorn -- are definitely worth stopping in for. Service has always been great, especially at the bar. A solid option for a quick drink! read more

Bad service, bartenders will complain about tips regardless of the amount. Plenty of other places to get a drink.

More laid back lounge bar than the one closest to the hotel room elevators. Nice layout for seating with the exception for seating along the walkway towards the bar. It's interesting that a lot of the larger couches are reserved seating. After ordering the first drink we were able to move over to more comfortable seating chairs with a larger table. There was a guitarist playing music and taking song requests. Our server was attentive and nice. Overall great lobby bar ambiance and relaxing to end the evening with drinks. read more

Here for Morgan Wallen. Sat at the Center Bar and Mario was the most horrible server I've ever sat with. He asked if I could afford a Tito's martini because I ordered one. I asked for his manager because he was being so rude and disrespectful. His manager Jordan Said "my employee always ask if they can afford their drink." I got upset and told him to get out of here because that was ridiculous. Cecilia at the lobby bar was the best and I hope and pray God blesses her. read more

Embarrassment. $23 old fashioned served in a juice glass?! Expect more folks for that kind of money. read more

I love the Lobby Bar inside the Aria, but a huge fail this last visit! We ordered a Cosmo for me and a vodka martini for the hubby. The server did not say anything and when the drinks came out, the martini had zero olives and a slice of what appeared to be a lime? Took it back to the bar and the bartender said the whole property had no olives!! They did not even bother to tell us when we ordered. Did not offer a different drink either. What a joke. Server laughed and said offered to get olives at Costco. What a shame a good place couldnt make a Costco run till they got a shipment! Tasted terrible. What a joke. read more

Absolutely delicious watermelon marg at the lobby bar! The Aria hotel is really nice and even their lobby bar is top notch. Expect to pay $20/drink which is reasonable on the strip but it's a good spot to stop by and grab a fresh cocktail before a Din Tai Fung reservation. Good alcohol to fresh juice ratio. I used the MyVegas app to get my first drink comped. read more

Popped into the Lobby Bar located at Aria the other night for a few cocktails. The lounge is very comfy, and furnished with oversized plush chairs. Great service, and a fun atmosphere. My only little complaint (not really a complaint, just a suggestion), is to mix the drinks a little better. I had a margarita, and it was quite tasty, however, my husband's old fashioned needed to be stirred. The ingredients were basically poured into the glass and then served to him. Once he tasted it and mixed the drink around himself, he enjoyed it. If you're looking for a chill place to have a few drinks before a night out, Lobby Bar is a great choice. read more

No smoking in the Lobby Bar. How awesome to find a smoke free zone inside the Aria casino! We sat at the bar - it was a bit confusing weather you can just grab any lounge seats or if they were reserved. Turns out we could have just sat anywhere in the lounge. Loved the fact that they brought out little snacks with our drinks - what a nice treat. read more

Unfriendly bartender and nothing special about the place. I have realized that Aria is just not good at making Old Fashioneds. Since it's a Lobby Bar, I was expecting a more inviting atmosphere. I didn't get that, but instead I was quietly waiting for the bartender to acknowledge me so I could order a drink (insert sad face). P.S. I really don't like it when a slice of orange is in my Old Fashioned instead of an orange peel. read more

We often stop in at Lobby Bar whenever staying in and around Aria. It's a chill bar with plenty of seating and we really like to just sit back and relax amongst the Vegas craziness. We enjoy it a lot. Drinks arent too expensive considering it's on the ground floor of one of the nicer casinos on the strip. You can get drinks from the bar or if you are seated at one of the tables or couches, a hostess can get your drinks. Lobby Bar is located right by front desk/registration. You cant miss it. You get a complimentary sampling of popcorn. Try their specialty drinks. read more

Very nice bar to grab a drink, especially a complimentary one from the MYVEGAS app. We even ended up ordering another. The bartender made an excellent French martini. The woman singing was excellent as well. We could have spent hours sitting here. read more

Ok, I loved my watermelon drink, but I'm not giving this more than 2 stars because of the service. My friend and I ordered drinks and closed our tab immediately because we had dinner plans. We sat and drank for about 30 minutes. The server never returned to check on us, offer us water, etc. I watched the same server take care of a group of 6 people next to us. They were brought snacks, water, and their drinks. I was so appalled, I pulled the large tip I intended to leave and replaced it with $2 and then left. You have no idea how angry I was to see how differently we were treated; likely because we only had two drinks. I'm happy to leave a big tip to accommodate my lack of ordering, but in this instance, all I wanted to do was show the server how unappreciated we felt. Bottomline... go get your overpriced drinks at another bar! read more

This is a nice, quiet place to sit and have a relaxing drink. Recommend getting a MyVEGAS complimentary reward if you can. They don't seem to have any issues with honoring the rewards like others do. read more

Ordered drinks at the bar as the waitress was not around...easy to order, but for $15 a drink, you'd expect to be in a glass cup rather than a plastic cup like you'd get at the casino. The drinks were good though and super quick. read more

I came here to redeem a MyVegas reward and the bartender didn't seem pleased. I asked if I could see a menu to see if they had any signature drinks. I was told they didn't have one. I ordered a paloma but it wasn't great. The drink wasn't great and the service wasn't great. I have an upcoming visit to Aria coming up but I wouldn't come back to this bar. I expected a little more coming from an upscale hotel. At least it was free. read more

Truly a solid spot! Compared with the Lift Bar you will have much faster service and won't feel like you're dying choking on other people's smoke. The service here was excellent, and the beers, wines, and cocktails I tried here were on point. I highly respect a place where I can order a Sidecar and they not only know what I mean, but it comes out chilled with the right stuff on the rim, and is boozy yet smooth. The only reason I give less than 5 is they gave our party a hard time about a bottle of Prosecco someone had brought from around the corner... it's gonna be ok! we paid plenty on all the drinks we ordered that night! read more

We had reservations for 4 for afternoon tea. It was actually pretty easy to make reservations through their website. However, when we tried to amend the reservations, we did not get any response. I'm giving this 1 star because their website and reservation process does not mention that you must be 21 or over to partake of afternoon tea. So we were turned away when we arrived, even though we had reservations. I was then told that I would receive a call from the manager, which never happened. I am thoroughly unimpressed by this and will never come back. Thankfully, as a local we have many other afternoon tea services to partake of, which I do frequently such as Veranda, Tea Lounge, and Petrossian Bar. BTW The Tea Lounge was able to get us in and we had a wonderful time. read more

The Aria Lobby Bar is open until 2 AM and has comfortable seating. The complementary dill pickle popcorn & spicy ranch popcorn are wonderful. The lobby bar has a signature cocktail menu and the prices are not bad. The Basil Grapefruit Martini and Cucumber Martinis are both delicious, however I am partial to the cucumber because it doesn't have any sugar in it and it's not sweet; the basil grapefruit is pretty sweet. Overall, it's a good place to post up if you're winding down or waiting to turn up! read more

I came here for Afternoon Tea at Lobby Bar, which is served Friday-Sunday from 12-4pm. First off, I must say that I didn't have a great experience making reservations. Long story short, it was difficult reaching a live person rather than voicemail, and they couldn't find our reservation when we checked in though were still able to take us anyway. Their afternoon tea is served in a roped off part of the bar with comfy chairs and couches. I personally got a kick out of doing tea in a casino setting. It's $45 per person and comes with finger sandwiches, scones, dessert, and your choice of tea. There's a pricier option as well (see picture to see what's included in each). I thought my peach tea and all the sandwiches were good and especially found the scones to be quite tasty. As for the desserts, some I found to be better than others. Our server was brand new to tea service specifically, and she let us know that from the start. While service was slow as she was busy working in another part of the bar also, she was nice and eager to learn more about this new-to-her service. Overall, I was pleased with my afternoon tea experience here. read more

Worst service ever! The waitress spilled an entire glass of water on my husband and wasn't even apologetic about it!!! All she did was hand us a rag (a RAG!!!) and said, "you wanted to dry up right?" didn't even care that we decided to leave. APPALLING. read more

Our son and his fiancé had their happy hour/meet and great at The Lobby Bar the night before their wedding. The service was exceptional. They kept our snacks filled and drinks chilled. The atmosphere at the Aria is amazing! read more

An easy option in Aria where the main bars are typically full with waits. Came on a Friday night and had some live music and only small wait. Area was wiped down and 6 feet away from other groups. Actually a solid menu of whiskeys and make the classic cocktails. Service is fast. Only issue is the surcharges. For a whiskey, there is a $4 charge for meat or on the rock s. So when looking at price add $14, so expect a 2oz pour to be $20 minimum. Also expect a $3 charge for cashews in order to get around the Covid requirements. Can get pricey but a nice stop after gambling to get some good music and comfy relaxing without much smoke read more

Beautiful bar area, but since the daytime bartender seemed super annoyed that I was there and wasn't very personable, I decided not to lounge with my drink there and just returned to the slot machines to play and drink. He was even more annoyed that I was redeeming a complimentary drink voucher, but seemed to perk up a little when I tipped him on the full check amount. Most likely won't be back, especially if he is the bartender when I'm visiting Aria. read more

The Lobby Bar is a quick and easy spot to grab a cocktail or two before hitting the town. It's literally across from the Aria lobby (convenient) and super sleek with small cushions and bench style seating for your bum. If you've got a group of 3-5 there are some little nooks too. Their cocktail menu is versatile and delicious. I'm partial to the Basil Grapefruit Martini. The glass is rimmed with tiny sugar crystals that looks like a tiny magical gnome placed each one there by hand. I don't make it to the strip often, but this would be a nice spot to be seen with your ladies or a great (first/blind) date night spot. It's classy, accessible, and has a lot of exits if you need to bail. Cheers!! read more

Came by to meet up with colleagues and grab a drink the other night. The bar was comfortable with high ceilings and the seats were comfortable. Staff was a tad hard to find. ...not sure I enjoyed the style of the staff...perhaps it's just a preference. Drinks were ~$10 each and were okay. As with typical Vegas standards, smoke was everywhere... read more

This bar is run by Z Rod an awsome bartender who makes the BEST Sidecar drink. Of course you have to like side cars in order to understand. Along with your drinks you get dill pickle flavored popcorn. Awsome. I say have multiple drinks here, good conversation and jokes with Z Rod. I say check it out. Sorry no pics as I was DRINKING and so should U. read more

Drinks at Lobby Bar is the perfect way to spend an afternoon. Their snacks keep you thirsty. I noticed a couple at the bar had fun drinks that were not on the menu. The bartender offered to make one for me - blood orange mimosa. The prosecco was not too sweet and it made a refreshing drink. We loved slowing down and watching the world go by for a couple hours. read more

We only came here because I had a voucher for a free drink. We were greeted pretty quickly and got our drinks soon after. After we got our drinks we didn't see our waitress at all. If we wanted another drink, we weren't going to get it. We went to pay, told the waitress mine was free, my wife would pay for hers with her comp dollars. She came back, dropped off the bill and never came back. We had a question about our bill and wanted her to clarify but her and the other waitress hid behind the bar watching us through a passthrough. I'm sure they saw us looking over at them but never came back. She circled on the bill that gratuity was not included (kinda cheesy) so we added a few dollars and left after waiting 10 or so minutes for her to come back. We assumed everything went through ok and checked our account balance and noticed the tip wasn't applied. I'm sure she was pretty pissed but if she just came back like a normal waitress she could have told us we couldn't tip that way. Don't make such a point of asking for gratuity if you aren't attentive, don't follow up and hide behind the bar, watching your guests. read more

It's not often I write a review. However, I was appalled by the service I received at Lobby Bar in Aria yesterday evening. While the drinks and our host were excellent, the lady who was bussing our table was not. My partner and I were seated and enjoying our cocktails after the rest of our party had left. A woman began bussing our table and clearing off the used and empty glasses. We asked if she could please bring us two glasses of water, and she took two USED, half-empty glasses she had just picked up from across from us and set them back on the table and said "here". What! How disgusting! Not to mention considering the pandemic and flu season! We were speechless. I am not sure I will come back here and I will recommend others to go elsewhere too. read more
