A return to the basics of classic bar culture: the Lazy Lion bar has opened in Adria Palace

Lazy Lion aims to bring classic cocktail style according to international standards and a guest-centric, relaxed and elegant bar experience back to the center of city life. The bar’s approach is defined by a hospitality attitude in which attention, spontaneity and elegance are self-evident – ​​this creates the place’s direct yet characterful atmosphere. The bar draws on the traditions of metropolitan American and London bars, while building on the personal, direct style of Mediterranean hospitality.

The classic drink experience, according to Lazy Lion, means the world of complex yet refined cocktails – excitingly balanced drinks that are not rethought beyond recognition, but with noble simplicity: familiar. The bar’s drink concept is the result of more than ten years of professional experience by Feke Soma: the offer was developed along the lines of great classics and modern standards.

The drink menu features six signature cocktails, including the Golden Stash, reminiscent of the golden age of seafaring, which shows the new, lighter face of cognac, while freshly squeezed apple, vanilla, vetiver and violet give it its character, crowned with white chocolate meringue. Another drink that stands out is the bohemian ¡Ay Padron! – the drink’s temperament is given by Penja pepper and ginger liqueur, while burnt Padron pepper and caramelized ginger give it a truly characteristic appearance and define its unforgettable aroma. In addition to signature drinks, the cocktail menu’s “Classic with a roar” designation presents four defining classics in a reimagined form.
The elegance of the bar is enhanced by glasses from one of the world’s oldest glass brands, John Jenkins, which has been operating since 1901.

“With Lazy Lion, we want to return to the basics of classic comfort bar culture. We believe that a bar is special when the guest feels that everything is done for them. We want to achieve the simplest things at an outstanding level, and we believe that if we achieve this every day, then we are authentic,”

– says Soma Feke, bar manager of Lazy Lion.
