The Crazy Glassware At These 9 Bars Will Up Your Instagram Game

If you didn’t post a photo, did the night really happen? It’s no longer enough for a cocktail to be delicious; it needs to be photogenic as well. These nine bars have some seriously showy drinks. But don’t just post a photo—savor the cocktail, too, because they’re all crafted by top bartenders.

Canon, Seattle

Canon has one of the world’s largest whiskey selections, and we’ve been a fan of its glassware for quite some time. As that show about the Pacific Northwest’s other major city says, just put a bird on it.

Playing around with ideas for the spring menu. What do you think? Should we put a bird on it?

The tiki-leaning cocktails at Mother of Pearl, a vegan Polynesian spot, have basically taken over Instagram. Witness the “Shark Eye,” looking for all the world like it’s just devoured a mermaid.

ROKC, New York City

The Tokyo-inspired drinks at ROKC, a ramen joint and cocktail bar in Harlem, might be served in a faux bird’s egg or an actual conch shell. 3452 Broadway, New York
Roommate’s Thai iced tea cocktail @rokcnyc last weekend. Tasted like a shot of Thai iced tea (yum condensed milk) with just a hint of absinthe. Drank alongside $1.5 oysters, the best ramen north of 60th street (with fish based broth?!), and fabulous company (reunions hey). The beets cocktail was delicious too. Absolutely deadly ☠️ . . . #wintering #reunions #foodtravels #ramen #brunch #boozybrunch #cocktails #sweetdrinks #rokc #sundays #bestles #nyc #newyork #newyorkcity A post shared by Michelle Zhang (@boozycheese) on Feb 3, 2017 at 8:25am PST

The Roof at Park South, New York City

We’re counting down the days until the weather warms and The Roof at Park South reopens for the season. It’s our regular summer hang for its delicious drinks (we’re partial to the Miami Vice—frozen pina colada swirled with frozen mai tai) as well as the hilarious glassware (we’ve been served a drink in a C3PO mug before) and A++ garnish game.
125 E. 27th St., New York

Slowly Shirley, New York City

Slowly Shirley is one of our regular hangs for its delicious drinks. It doesn’t hurt that they’re gorgeous as well. Check out this skull-for-two, the cocktail within turned black by activated charcoal. Downstairs, 121 W. 10th St., New York
Sometimes the best way to enjoy a cocktail is to share it.

Super Panda Circus, Brno, Czech Republic

In Brno, Super Panda Circus is shaking up the cocktail game with their fanciful glassware. Yes, that really is the bar’s namesake animal hugging a baby’s bottle of booze and a Barbie doll riding a unicorn.

More a cocktail pub, The Barking Dog takes a whimsical approach to a pretty serious drinks program. We can’t get enough of the Mexican 8-Ball. Sankt Hans Gade 19, 2200 København
