The Coldroom, c'est l'endroit où l'élégance se mêle à la discrétion. Si tu veux vivre une soirée hors du commun, loin des bars touristiques, dans un cadre chargé d'histoire avec des cocktails vraiment bien pensés - c'est un incontournable. Je le recommande chaudement pour une sortie raffinée & intimiste.

The entrance was admittedly a little hard to find as it was an inconspicuous black door tucked away in the corner that required guests to be buzzed in. That aside, The Coldroom was an excellent speakeasy with cozy atmosphere topped up with great drinks that all add up to shape the perfect night.

Great atmosphere & decor & even better cocktails! We went early in the evening & there'd clearly been a flurry of arrivals right before us so our first drinks did take a wee while but they were well worth the wait. Second drinks were much quicker. Tried 4 different cocktails between us & they were all really excellent. Didn't eat so can't comment on food.

No bourbon as of Oct 2025. Cool spot & unique but it was a downer when I found out they had no bourbon. I found many other option though.

Very cool hidden bar at the old port of Mot real! Cute & creative menu- the bartender made me a drink which was not on the menu after asking what I liked- it was absolutely delicious & worth it! Great atmosphere underground with vintage style decor.
