Lounge Bar in Salou · Cocktails and Wines by the Glass
Book a tableAt Carbònic the Lounge is not an add-on: it's a bar with its own life inside the restaurant. Signature cocktails — classics executed with rigour and seasonal creations — and an extensive by-the-glass wine selection from our cellar of over 400 references. Open continuously beyond kitchen hours, both for the aperitif before dinner and for the long after-dinner drinks, and also for those who come specifically for a drink, with no dinner planned. We're not a café nor a beer bar; we're a lounge with a cocktail programme and a wine bar in the heart of Salou, on the Costa Dorada. Come in for a Spritz at midday, a signature cocktail before dinner, or a Porn Star Martini to close the night.
Destination, not epilogue
The usual mistake with a restaurant bar is treating it as the obligatory epilogue to a dinner: two stools next to the till, a predictable digestif list, a couple of gin and tonics for guests who don't want to head home. The Carbònic Lounge was designed from the other side. It's a space with its own identity within the building, with its own hours, its own menu and its own reason to exist. You can come without booking and without a dinner plan. And we don't want to be what we're not. We're not a café — Salou has plenty of better ones for that. We're not a beer bar — for that too, and welcome. We are a lounge with signature cocktails and a wine bar by the glass. That's our niche: serious product, clean technique, unhurried service, in a space designed for conversation without shouting. The first pillar is cocktails. The classics — Negroni, Old Fashioned, dry Martini, Manhattan — we make as they should be made: exact proportions, quality ingredients, a cold glass, ice of the right size. On that base, the cocktail team builds a seasonal signature menu: creations using local ingredients, contemporary techniques and combinations that surprise without falling into empty Instagram tricks. Mediterranean fresh drinks — Aperol Spritz and Hugo Spritz, Mojito, Margarita — have their own space, especially at midday and in summer months. And the indulgent after-dinner ones — Porn Star Martini, Espresso Martini — close tables. The second pillar is the wine bar by the glass. Our cellar of over 400 references is not just intended to accompany dinner. We offer an extensive by-the-glass selection that includes premium references normally reserved for the full bottle, thanks to an inert-gas preservation system that keeps the opened bottle in good condition for several days. It's a way to approach a serious Priorat, a Champagne or a Palo Cortado without opening a full bottle. Ideal for aperitif or for after-dinner. The Lounge is open continuously beyond kitchen hours — Sunday to Thursday until 00:30, Friday and Saturday until 01:00. You can come without booking. If the space is full, there's the bar. And if you fancy dining afterwards, you can move to the dining room without friction. Three uses, one same space: aperitif, dinner or destination in itself.
Cocktails, fresh drinks and wines by the glass
Signature & Classics
The classics done as they should be — Negroni, Old Fashioned, dry Martini — alongside the seasonal signature menu. Porn Star Martini and Espresso Martini to close tables, and creations that use local ingredients and contemporary techniques without falling into showmanship.
Fresh Drinks of the Mediterranean
Aperol Spritz and Hugo Spritz for the aperitif under the sun. Mojito and Margarita made with rigour, not as they serve them at any beach shack. The cocktails that midday on the Costa Dorada demands, executed with serious product.
Wines by the Glass
Over 400 cellar references, available by the glass thanks to our inert-gas preservation system. Priorat, Champagne, Palo Cortado, premium references normally reserved for the full bottle. No need to open a full bottle to taste something serious.
Come whenever: aperitif at midday, cocktail before dinner or a destination of its own until 01:00 on weekends.
Have questions?
No, the Lounge is an independent space. You can come for a drink without booking a table for dinner, and without having eaten before. It's a destination in its own right: aperitif at midday, cocktail before someone else's dinner, long after-meal drinks. If you fancy moving into the dining room to eat during or after, we can coordinate on the floor subject to availability.
The Lounge is open continuously, beyond kitchen hours. Sunday to Thursday from 12:30 to 00:30. Friday and Saturday from 12:30 to 01:00. You can come at any time within that window, without booking. At busy moments, if the tables are all taken, we always serve at the bar.
Signature cocktails and classics executed with rigour. The classics — Negroni, Old Fashioned, Martini, Manhattan — we make with the right proportions and ingredients, not adapted for mass taste. The fresh ones — Aperol Spritz, Hugo Spritz, Mojito, Margarita — are the natural choice for midday and summer. The signature menu rotates by season, with creations using local produce and contemporary techniques. And a few indulgent after-dinner cocktails — Porn Star Martini, Espresso Martini — close many dinners. We're not a café or a beer bar: we're a lounge with a serious cocktail programme.
Yes, and it's one of the hallmarks of the space. Our cellar has over 400 references and a significant part of it is available by the glass thanks to an inert-gas preservation system that keeps the opened bottle in good condition for several days. This lets us offer by the glass premium references — Priorat, Champagne, Palo Cortado — normally reserved for the full bottle. Ideal for aperitif or after-dinner without committing to a whole bottle.
It depends on the moment of day. At midday and early afternoon, the fresh ones: Aperol or Hugo Spritz, Mojito. At the pre-dinner aperitif hour, the classics — Negroni, Old Fashioned — and the signature creations. After dinner, the indulgent ones: Porn Star Martini and Espresso Martini close the most tables. And throughout the year, a well-made Margarita is a constant at any moment.
No, tables in the Lounge cannot be booked: access is walk-in. At busy moments the tables may all be taken, in which case we serve at the bar without any issue. Reservations are only possible for guests coming for lunch or dinner at the restaurant.
