B Bārs Restorāns, Restaurant and bar in Riga, Latvia
B Bārs Restorāns is a restaurant and bar in Riga, Latvia, located in the Old Town at Doma laukums 2, next to Doma Cathedral. The venue has three rooms, including a central hall with views of the cathedral and a restaurant hall facing Mūku iela, and a summer terrace at the foot of the church.
The restaurant opened in the heart of the Old Town and has since become a meeting point for both locals and travelers. Over the years, it has built a reputation for its cocktail menu and its collection of vintage spirits, which the owner has gathered over a long career in the drinks trade.
The bar is known for its long bar counter, where bartenders mix a wide range of cocktails, and for its black balsam tastings, a local drink that visitors often try here. On weekends, a DJ plays and the room turns into a dance floor, while the summer terrace becomes a spot to sit under the cathedral walls.
The bar is easy to find on Doma laukums, right beside the cathedral, and the entrance is on the ground floor. The rooms fill up in the evening, so it helps to book ahead if you want a table with a view of the church.
The owner is a drinks expert with more than 30 years in the trade, and his private collection of vintage bottles is occasionally opened for guests. Among the house cocktails, one called Sex in Jūrmala often catches the eye of visitors looking for something different.
