    I LOVE that this place is still around! I used to go here when I worked on cruise ships 15 years ago! They have amazing sangria, which you can buy a whole pitcher of, which I used to but since I'm older now I just had 2 this time! They also serve food. I've never had their food, but if it's just as good as the drinks than you are in good hands! The service is always incredible. And the ambience is really cool because they have bras hanging up on the ceiling. I donated mine like 15 years ago but I couldn't find mine. What did they do with it? Hmmmmm. Anyway, I loved to go back here 15 years later. And this is a stop. I will always make when in Venice...

    Cocktails and Bras! Ah, good times! Yep, good times. Venice, Italy was the City of Masks long before Coronavirus ... thanks to the Carnevale di Venezia and other illicit or romantic mask-wearing traditions for partying like its 1399. Masks are always fun, but aren't required at Bacaro Jazz ... and neither are bras. That's right! One fun tradition at this bar-slash-restaurant are the over-the-shoulder-boulder-holders danging from the ceiling and around the bar. If the mood strikes (after a couple cocktails) feel free to donate your own knocker locker or balloon cocoon ... and create a memory that'll last longer than the hangover ... even if you can't actually remember it the next morning. Bacaro Jazz isn't a high falutin' fancy Venetian bar. It's a fun bar to drink like an American in the City of Masks ... whether you wear one ... or a bra ... or not. Cin Cin!

    A fun place for a Friday night out. They played a mix of good music to dance and chill to talk and meet new people. The drinks are affordable and strong.

    During our 2016 trip to Europe, our last Italian city before heading to Paris was Venezia (Venice). On our first afternoon in Venice we were walking through this unique city and were looking for an afternoon cocktail before we decided where we wanted to get dinner. We stumbled across Bacaro Jazz and saw that it was a bar restaurant. We walked in and were immediately greeted by the host. We let them know we were interested in a drink and they sat us at a table for two. When our server came around, we told them that we wanted something local and they recommended the Bellini as it was invented in Venice. We went with the Bellini and it was fun drinking something different, especially something that originated from the city. If you find yourself in Venezia, come check out Bacaro Jazz and check out their eclectic restaurant decor. Have a drink, grab dinner or do both. Who cares you are on Vacation!! Fun fact: The Bellini was invented in 1948 and is a cocktail mixture of Prosecco, sparkling wine, and peach purée or nectar.

    Vencie is the only city I have ever felt completely safe being lost in. It was a late night of bar hopping and drinking and then we came across Bacaro. I am not sure what makes this place so special. We didn't eat a meal here but instead chose a little snack while drinking. We sat at the bar and ordered the Bruschetta Toscana which was simple yet tasty. We ordered our very first Venetian Aperol Spritz here! A Venetian classic it was absolutely delicious and we were hooked. A few of these guys will do the trick! Which probably explains the hundreds of bra straps that fill the ceiling lol I wouldn't go out of the way to come here but if you are in the area maybe stop by for a drink and enjoy the scenery.

    The workers at Bacaro Jazz provided the best service we have received not only in Italy but in Europe as a whole. They gave us food and drink recommendations and insured we were satisfied with our meal. The drinks we got were amazing. (Italian Margherita & Strawberry Mojito)The jazz music was great! Fun place to hang out, get drinks and a bite if you're hungry.

    THE BEST!! My family and I stayed a week in Venice and this was the spot we kept coming back to. Music videos playing on the tvs, bras on the ceiling, lots of varieties of drinks. Friendly people, good food, nice staff, what more could you ask for? My little brothers turned 18 and this was their first bar they got to go to, it was a blast!! We ate copious amounts of french fries and had the best night ever. They were so nice and attentive....the patrons were nice, and it was just an all around great experience each of the 4 times we went. Also, they were open later than most other bars.

    We only grabbed drinks here. What drew is to this spot was the music and we were looking for a good bar to have some drinks while we were in Venice. They have bars hanging on their ceilings. They play decent music. Our bartenders was attentive.

    I'll start by saying if you're in Venice GO HERE. I don't see where else you'd go. LUCKILY this place is open everyday until 2am. I went to Venice for two days on a Sunday and Monday and thank god for this place. We went both nights that we were there. The atmosphere is perfect. It's a jazz decor bar but the music is modern which we LOVED. I was so happy we found this place. The Fourth of July special shot. Amazing. So good. Must get. I also had an order of BBQ wings and fries. Came out fresh and nice and hot at about 1am, which is nearly unheard of anywhere. The staff was amazing so nice and they knew enough English that you speak with them normally. I loved this place and when I go back to Venice is definitely stop back in. I'd recommend anyone to this place. OH and they give you a FREE shot at the end when you're ready to pay for your drinks and meal. It's like a pistachio flavored shot. It's surprisingly so good. GO FOR IT.

    First plaze in Venice where I have found someone who has Sex on The Beach on the menu. Very nice drinks. Only downside by sitting outside is the birds who flies all over the place.

    Love this place! My friends and I have dubbed it the bra bar as a result of the bras covering the ceiling (which the bartender says are all donations. My friend plans to donate one at the end of our trip). The bra bar is always popular, and though expensive and touristy, it has a charm I cannot really put words to. The music videos playing on the TV can be anything from rock to country to kpop. Before going out for the night we usually grab a table for an hour and get a few drinks.

    Fun place with a nice vibe and jazz covers off Apple. We split the chicetti plate and it was good. A couple beers and we were pretty happy.

    Situated at the foot of the Ponte dei Frari bridge in a non-touristy, quiet part of Venice, this…read morequaint two-story bar with an inventive cocktail menu is characterized by a mezzanine with black leather booths and beautiful stained glass lamps hanging from the ceiling that opens up to look down on the main room. This is actually a historical Venetian cafe' from 1870's called "Caffe' dei Frari o Toppo"[1], and I remember coming here regularly when I was in college to "study", i.e. to hang out with my friends who would also come here during the day. In fact, this is still a cafe' during the day, but it transforms itself in a cocktail bar at night. The vibe is mellow, relaxed and romantic and this bar prides itself on being one of the few in Venice to serve truly inventive contemporary cocktails. The menu is actually divided by techniques: fermentation, distillation, liquid kitchen, and fat wash. We tried the Cucumber and Fake Rose (fermentation: Fermented cucumber, Andaliman pepper, Lillet, verjus and bubbles) and The Amaz-on Fire (fat wash: Yaguara cachaca, coconut oil, Cynar, dill, house sherry mix and Porcini mushroom; peat perfume). Both were excellent, and were presented in an artful way that doesn't feel pretentious. And if you are hungry, the bar serve their own cichetti (bar snacks). I look forward to coming back next year, and perhaps try one of the food-inspired, liquid kitchen cocktails. ------------------------------- [1] https://www.yelp.com/biz/caffe-dei-frari-o-toppo-venezia

    Finally found my other notes for this place. They did really interesting stuff with their sides…read more Very modern, in portion sizes that are approachable. It brings delight and minimizes food waste if guests don't like it. * Le Corsaire: A gorgeous soft green drink. Sweet but not sugary, with a lil bit of spice at the end. It was paired with a blue cheese mousse and honey caviar - I don't know how they did it, but it was delicious. The blue cheese taste makes the mousse pop. * Steven had a cocktail that came with a side of yogurt covered with a soft shell (that acted like a water balloon). * Hispaniola: The drink was smoky and something about it tasted like temptation. Paired with a beautifully done meringue (nice and airy!) and a keyboard-smashingly gorgeous caviar.
