At the Long Bar at Raffles at Galaxy Macau, a world of intrigue and adventure awaits. Since the first Singapore Sling was mixed at Long Bar at Raffles Singapore in 1915, the famous lounge has expanded around the world while continuing its tradition of delighting guests with exotic cocktails infused with local flavors. Long Bar at Raffles at Galaxy Macau takes inspiration from the Madre de Deus, a Portuguese carrack that brought precious spices to Macau in the 1500s. Echoing the subterranean coastal caves once teeming with sailors and sunken treasures, the Long Bar is hidden from view in true speakeasy style. Guests enter through a nautical porthole door, where they encounter a chiseled cavern, designed by Hong Kong interior design star Joyce Wang. A secret rendezvous for modern-day explorers and connoisseurs of fine libations.

Award-winning mixologist Antonio Lai, a Hong Kong native, pays homage to the early days of gin making, when stills were stored in caves. Lai masterfully crafts vintage gin-based cocktails, flavoring with spices that were once transported by the Madre de Deus as she crossed the globe. Traditional seasonings such as pepper, cloves, cinnamon, mace, and nutmeg find new life in creative concoctions. Featuring live vinyl DJ sets, Raffles at Galaxy Macau's speakeasy Long Bar smoothly blends the flavors from the spice trade with modern cocktail culture and global gastronomy for an authentic and spellbinding experience.
