The Verne Cocktail Club is a bar set up in Buenos Aires, consecrated to the adventurousness of Jules Verne. Opened in 2013, it has been seducing visitors with its unique look of steampunk, including brown leather Chesterfield armchairs, Victorian furniture, Persian rugs, and rusty iron on the walls. Over the decade since it opened, Verne has been at the heart of the Buenos Aires nightlife scene, offering an ageless and immersive experience that charms those who look for great cocktails and a unique atmosphere all at once.
At the very core of Verne Cocktail Club is ever-changing offerings that get refreshed four times a year to keep up with the seasons. That gives the bar the possibility to insert fresh and seasonal ingredients in every drink, making each cocktail a journey of flavors. The Verne team, with head bartender Flor Nahir at the helm, works on innovative and creative concoctions or serves timeless classic cocktails from the official list of the International Bartenders Association, with the same artisanal preparation.
Verne Cocktail Club is not only famous for its skillfully prepared cocktails but also for its ambition to provide top-tier bar food. In opposition to the traditional approach of bar foods-that should be secondary to drinks, of course-the menu at Verne reimagines classic and eclectic dishes into a perfect pairing with the long list of drinks at the bar. The menu of food is just as contemplated as the cocktails themselves, an elegant mashup that reflects the diversity of the bar itself.
Complementing a regular menu of offerings, Verne Cocktail Club offers custom experiences for private events. Everything from business meetings and product presentations to weddings and social gatherings-the bar crafts bespoke liquid experiences to make any occasion more special. The team comes up with an exclusive drink menu, from which various cocktails can be offered to fit the specific client's needs. Verne ensures that every event becomes unique and memorable, offering everything from a live DJ to a personalized kitchen menu option.
