Of all the drinks you could order, the cocktail is the most versatile and the most creative. They come in all shapes, sizes, colours and flavours, and when you are looking to unwind, whether it is after a day spent exploring the must-see tourist hotspots or ordered as a lunchtime treat, a cocktail will hit the right spots.
Namibia has a couple of amazing places where you can enjoy a delectable cocktail. When you are passing through one of the bigger towns or moving through the bustling capital city of Windhoek, here are some of the best places where you can sit down, enjoy the view and sip on something delicious.

- Hotel Heinitzburg
It’s not just the cocktail, it’s the overall experience that makes for a pleasant time out. And at Hotel Heinitzburg, which is like a castle looking out over the city of Windhoek, you not only have a full selection of colourful cocktails to browse through and order, but you also have the best view in the city. Everything about this setting is upmarket and with a friendly staff and a stellar culinary menu, you can look forward to a great evening out.
- The Wine Bar
With a name like that, who wouldn’t expect to be able to find a range of interesting drinks and some of the best vintages imported from neighbouring South Africa? At The Wine Bar, you can expect great service in a comfortable, fairly relaxed setting and cocktails definitely take up a sizeable portion of the drinks menu. You are guaranteed to have a fun time making your selection.
- Sky Bar
The Sky Bar in Windhoek has become quite the iconic place to have a drink. The bar boasts some of the very best views of the city and it has become a must-visit for anyone wanting to have that relaxing, end of day drink. Sky Bar has a chic look and feel which is partly why it has become one of the best places to have a cocktail in Namibia. You can dress in your best and really make an evening of it, by settling down at the pool and unwinding under the stars all while enjoying a breeze. Basically, Sky Bar is pretty darn fabulous.
- Hotel Thule Sundowner Bar and Terrace
As the name says, this is a great place for a sundowner. And the menu includes all sorts of interesting-looking, tasty cocktails which can be enjoyed with something from the snack menu, which features all of those popular snack foods, including beef samosas, spring rolls, crumbed calamari and more. You will find this hot spot in Windhoek.
- Avani Hotel Windhoek Stratos Restaurant & Bar
A stylish establishment in a comfortable part of Windhoek Avani Hotel Windhoek Stratos Restaurant and Bar is a great place to pop into when you are in the mood for a cocktail.
