Drink Kong

4.3 (2,351)$$ · Mid-range

Drink Kong sits in the Monti neighbourhood and has earned an international reputation, appearing on the World's 50 Best Bars list and drawing visitors specifically for that credential. Its modern, striking interior and extensive, creative cocktail menu — reviewers mention trying ten or more varieties in a single visit — reflect an ambition to push Rome's bar scene forward rather than lean on tradition. It's a destination for cocktail enthusiasts as much as casual evening drinkers.

What people say

"We wanted to visit this place when we came to Rome since it’s on the “50 Best Bars” list, and it definitely lived up to the reputation. We tried more than 10 different cocktails and really enjoyed the experience. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. If you’re unsure what to order, they happily guide you and recommend cocktails based on your taste. The cocktail service was also surprisingly fast. The music was tasteful and at a perfect volume — lively but not too loud, so you can still comfortably have a conversation. It wasn’t very crowded when we visited, possibly because of the season or the time of day, but we still made a reservation through their website beforehand. Offering a complimentary shot both at the beginning and after we paid the bill was a very nice touch. Overall, a great place in Rome to enjoy creative and high-quality cocktails."
