I had an amazing experience at portal cocktails! Loved Geena so much! She was amazing and was super helpful on recommendations! We had the best girls night out thanks to Geena!

Enjoyable and chill night of cocktails at Portal. The vibe is very relaxed but also feels pretty modern and young. Reminds me of some of the cool speakeasy’s in San Diego. Definitely a good stop if you like great cocktails that are given due effort and energy by bartenders. I stick with “Kiss the Ring”, which was really really great. Plenty of seating on a Thursday evening and it didn’t seem like people were holed up in there too long. Enter via Ermanos and walk to the back.

Super fun cool bartender named geena ! She will make you the best fun random drinks that will leave you not even questions what you are drinking! I recommend to anyone going to see her on a weekend or weekday night! She was literally the best!

Love drinking at portal. They give you a welcome shot when you enter. My favorite drink is penasco. They are all premixed drinks so they won’t customize anything for you. Always a chill vibe.

It's at the back of a restaurant. Space is limited so get here early. This spot is very hip and I wish every city had something similar to that. Drinks are pretty and tasty. The majority of the crowd is young people! I thought they don't drink anymore. This is a cool spot and a must when visiting Tucson!

Delicious and beautiful! This is a well hidden little place that we have now been to twice and both times, we have been greeted with the welcome cocktail, friendly staff and fantastic drinks! I think this will be on the must visit list every time we are in town. They do also have snacks like the Stuffed Olives, Beef Jerky and the Chocolate Covered Mango. The cocktails we ordered, were on a special seasonal menu, but any cocktail you order, you can't go wrong. This is a must if you are in the Tucson area!
