Hidden agave-focused bar inside The Cosmopolitan, a compact option for tequila and mezcal fans on the Strip.
Ghost Donkey — The Cosmopolitan
Ghost Donkey is a mezcal-and-tequila-focused cocktail lounge at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, 3708 South Las Vegas Boulevard. Its menu emphasizes agave spirits, tasting flights and specialty cocktails with Mexican influences.
The resort currently describes Ghost Donkey as not requiring reservations, but seating can still be limited. Check the official opening hours before planning your visit and ask staff about tasting options if you are unfamiliar with mezcal styles. This is a bar within The Cosmopolitan, not a stand-alone street-front restaurant.

Ghost Donkey is a hidden mezcal and tequila speakeasy named after white donkeys, which are traditionally considered the workhorses of the agave-to-bottle distilling process. "Be an opener of doors." ― Ralph Waldo Emerson Literally! I imagine this is how Alice felt when she fell down the rabbit hole except when I pushed the door with the donkey on it [did I enter a donkey... hole?], I was bathed with pink lights and loud music instead of a topsy-turvy Wonderland. Not a stranger to this Las Vegas speakeasy, this most recent visit I ordered a $20 Burro Tropical (volcan tequila, banks 5 island rum, chinola liqueur, calpico, ginger, lemon, soda), a $20 The Alfaro Strawberry Highball (dakabend oaxaca rum, strawberry, clarified lime, organic agave, sea salt, fever-tree club soda), and a $23 Truffle Nachos (white cheddar, black truffles, chives). The Burro Tropical comes with a little burro figurine that is yours to keep with purchase. I had two separate women come to my table and pointed out the donkey. I thought one of them was going to steal a chip but nope. They liked the donkey. I call him Ghost Malone. I also met a lovely woman, her sister, and her husband in town from Houston, Texas. We call her Martina. Much laughs were had. Ghost Donkey has multiple locations: Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas, Omaha, and Phoenix. If you have one nearby, pop in!

Such a gem to bring your family and friends. We always bring them and surprise them with goodie memories. Drinks are delicious and the truffle nachos are yum. Gratitude and prosperity to the owners, staff and customers 🏼

It was very crowded. Nowhere to sit so we shutoff up for a while. Drinks were IG worthy but the signature donkey drink is had was the grossest ever! I don't ever waste alcohol and tried to chug it and nearly threw up. I guess it has grapefruit in it... and i just couldn't drink it. I tried to give it away and no one liked it. All the other drinks were very tasty.

Cocktails are always amazing here! A favorite place to visit when we are in LV. The space is very small, so would only recommend for very small groups
