Shanghai Cocktail Bar Up on the second floor, the Shanghai Cocktail Lounge takes inspiration from prohibition-era cocktails with an Asian twist.

The ambiance is dark and moody, offering an elegant yet cozy retreat for cocktail connoisseurs. Whether you’re seated at the bar or lounging in a booth, the Shanghai Cocktail Lounge accommodates up to 40 guests (mixed seating and standing), making it perfect for small gatherings or exclusive parties.
