Presidente Bar

Nestled in the upscale Recoleta district, Presidente Bar exudes a rarefied elegance where classic grandeur meets inventive flair. Opened in 2017 by renowned bartender Seba García, this bar quickly rose through the ranks, earning spots as No. 33 in 2019 and No. 21 in 2021 on The World’s 50 Best Bars list. Upon entering, you're welcomed by a long, polished bar gleaming under crystal chandeliers. The ambiance is further elevated by a lush winter garden—greenery softly illuminated, creating an intimate and stylish hideaway. Hidden behind a shelf-lined library lies an exclusive private bar, lending an air of mystery and exclusivity. The drink menu artfully balances timeless classics with bold signature concoctions. Think of a perfectly balanced Negroni or the famously theatrical “Entre las Nubes” (“Among the Clouds”), served in a miniature hot-air balloon and featuring Hendrick’s Gin, cherry brandy, Strega, citrus, and rosemary. Complementing the cocktails is a refined food menu by Chef Martín Ávalos, offering inventive pairings that elevate the sipping experience—perfect for those who appreciate harmony of flavor as much as ambiance. The mood here is poised, stylish, and alive with possibility—whether you're tucked into the private library bar or surrounded by friends among the foliage. Treat it as a refined escape, an elegant cocktail odyssey where each detail—from the decor to the presentation—whispers intention and taste.
