Since 1970, Nottingham Forest in Milan has been a magnet for adventurous cocktail lovers. Under the visionary leadership of Dario Comini—pioneer of the “bar‑chef” and molecular mixology movement—the bar fuses exotic artifacts from Africa, the Caribbean, and Asia with high‑tech drink wizardry. Its intimate, richly decorated interior is filled with masks, carvings, hammocks, and memorabilia, creating a vibe that’s part tiki hideout, part laboratory . Cocktails here are theatrical feats—served in skulls, boxes, bath‑tubs, pipettes, or even syringes. Think peated whiskey Old Fashioned in an illuminated box, Sichuan flower–tingled sippers, and mezcal‑BBQ‑century‑egg experiments. While the drinks may polarize, the experience is unforgettable and frequently described as worth the visit simply for the novelty and craftsmanship . No reservations—expect a queue, and cozy up at the counter or grab a spot outside if you're lucky. It's consistently rated among the world’s best cocktail bars—even making The World's 50 Best list for nearly a decade.
