Reviewers praise Mikulášsky Cocktail Bar’s “bitter calvados” as a standout, with the overall vibe described as sophisticated yet unpretentious, blending sharp flavors with warm hospitality.
“Bitter, Calvados, maple syrup, and then it's smoked — well, how to smoke a cigar in Normandy. An excellent description — it's a bit bitter, the Calvados is strong, you can really taste the Calvados. They also served it with a story, like in the France series. There's a bit of apple and the smokiness is really cool. The lady liked it a lot, a lot — it's really a little gem here in Bratislava.”

A beautiful cocktail bar with a vintage atmosphere — we paid a fair price, and it's a hidden speakeasy: Google Maps leaves you at a place, you go in, climb the stairs, face a wardrobe, try to open it, and inside the staff welcomes you.

Rami de Fat Gengar
After tasting the cocktail with reindeer heart in Copenhagen, the evening of cocktails with animal parts continues — randomly. It's called Rami de Fat Gengar: vermouth, cognac, orange bitters, grenadine syrup, and duck fat. We've reached the point of drinking fat — yes, it's fat, I drank fat. But it's really good.
Bitter Calvados
Bitter, Calvados, maple syrup, and then it's smoked — well, how to smoke a cigar in Normandy. An excellent description — it's a bit bitter, the Calvados is strong, you can really taste the Calvados. They also served it with a story, like in the France series. There's a bit of apple and the smokiness is really cool. The lady liked it a lot, a lot — it's really a little gem here in Bratislava.
