PRESS at Four Seasons

Five stars to Ross, who took care of us the first night so well that we came back for the second.
Exceptionally well-​crafted classic cocktails. Not cheap (this is the Four Seasons in Vegas, after all) — but perhaps the most generous pours/​glasses I’ve seen in a loooong time. Remarkably quiet setting to sit back and actually have a conversation with your cocktail buddy.

Be ready to have them rip you off.
I had a great time otherwise. Ross was incredibly attentive. The only thing that really killed me was when I ordered a neat Buffalo Trace. Normally, a bottle goes for around $ 29. They felt that a shot should go for about $ 35. Even after talking to the manager, she was adamant about the price. I understand it is Vegas, but this is not a place to screw your constituents.

Food is good here, but pricey for what they offer. The staff here are super friendly and you can definitely tell they love being at work.
We stayed at the Four Seasons, so PRESS was a convenient stop for coffee and light breakfast. The muffin was delicious!

1. Very expensive.
2. Nice location, but it’s still a lobby bar, so it’s open to the lobby. It is cool to walk out by the pool in the summer. Unfortunately the pool and nearby patio are both closed in the winter, as a security guard came and told us the pool was closed for winter. Kinda surprised we couldn’t even walk out on the patio. No matter.
3. Drinks are fine, but PRESS has a reputation as a specialty/​artisanal cocktail bar… I didn’t see or wasn’t offered a menu, so I asked the bartender for a light, refereshing drink… he said, «ummmm…what kind of liquor do you want?» I said, «how about a gin drink?» He gave me a blank look, so I said «what’s one of your most popular? What do you like?» He said «Well I can do a gin & tonic?» I guess lesson learned for me. This isn’t a specialty cocktail bar manned by «mixologists». It’s just a regular ol’ bar with regular ol’ bartenders.
If I were staying at the 4 Seasons, I might drop in for a drink, but on a stretch of road populated by some of the best cocktail bars in the country, there is zero reason to go to this remote area.

Super happy with Ashley. Saw the photos, wanted to try some of that yummy dessert. Called at 9:30pm and was informed Press works like this: in the mornings, it’s a coffee bar with pastries and assorted fruits and baked offerings. In the afternoon it switches to the bar, bar, where you order drinks (cocktails and such) and apps/​small bites/​desserts, but they have limited operating hours and the coffee bar is closed on certain days for weeks at a time for the holidays, from what I was told. The operating hours, I was told aren’t set and listed anywhere so you better call ahead if you are not already staying there and just want to stroll by for a chance at a drink or a bite to eat. The big beautiful chocolate benighs are only sold on the weekends, if the coffee is open. Kinda complicated. Ashley said that when I called at 9:30 the kitchen was closed but they could accommodate an additional dessert request and make me up to 3 orders for the mini benighs with the white custard sauce. I took her up on all three and within 7 minutes the order was ready for pick up. It’s beautiful-​the hotel, Ashley was a doll, the benighs were packed nicely, but they were EXPENSIVE! $ 33 for 5 bite-​size dough puffs/​each order. Got 15 total between the three orders so that’s like two dollars+ per bite. Dammit man, that’s a lot! Was it worth it? NOPE! Did we eat them anyway… heck yes! Next time if they don’t have the jumbo $ 4.50 ones, though we will pass.

This place was recommended to us by our Driver. Ashley was amazing. She was very attentive and sweet. We were really just looking for a quick bite and some drinks. The small plates were all amazing. This is a must try!

My favorite part of Press is its delightful, calm, lovely outdoor patio. An oasis of Zen for a break from the usual Vegas cacophony.
Misters in summer, infrared heaters and fire-​pits in winter, a lovely staff, what’s not to like? It’s a coffee shop by day, craft cocktail bar by night. But what inspired me to pen this review today was the smell of blooming gardenias wafting across the patio as the sun set.
We’ve visited many times over several years and have found Press to be consistently two-​thumbs-​up. Well worth the extra effort to find compared with the chain-​coffee places buried in the casinos. Bring a book and chill out awhile.

This is a comfy place with nice snacks on the menu. Friendly staff. Very helpful with recommendations and requests not even related to what they sell. I made it through a couple of tough mornings thanks to the staff and the coffee PRESS! The Cro-​Nuts (?) are deliciously fried croissant donuts, but only available on the weekends. Regular croissants were very fresh, flaky and light. I was told the space turns into a taco bar at night, but never saw that happen, All above is about the coffee stand.
The bar is a very upscale, relaxing space. Out door seating, bar seating and casual seating was a great way to get different perspectives during the various times I was there. Bartenders were polite and extremely helpful. Pretzel bites with cheese sauce were the perfect snack.
A great space with great people… oh that’s right, it’s at the Four Seasons! Enjoy!

The drinks are good. Slightly over priced but, hey it is Vegas.
The one thing that sets this place apart is the amazing Flamenco guitarist. He mentioned that his name was Ricardo… What an amazing musical talent!

Great coffee shop on the lower level of the Four Seasons hotel. The staff was extremely friendly and my hot tea was perfect. The lounge area was great to meet and still be relaxed. Definitely a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of the Strip!

Great bar food with excellent service.

I cannot wait to come back and eat at this place during EDC weekend. I will be there by the pool eating the damn sliders eating the peanuts drinking my Moscow Mule having a good time oh yeah something I don’t know chicken fries bean dips ketchup chips you name it they got it and they will serve it to you with a smile I’m so excited for their lovely desserts there so sugary and sweet out of my delight I love this place so much I think about it on the regular weekly basis it’s kind of scary. I wish there were more PRESS around the world. This is coming from somebody who works at a high-​end restaurant in Hollywood. Shout out to Ashley and Eric. I’ll see you guys in a couple weeks :-)

OMG! You must try this adorable bar! They serve food (small plates), desserts and most importantly drinks. I looked everywhere for a place for French 75, Jorge was the first one to make it for me on this trip (champagne, gin, lemon juice and sugar). Very chill place. I also ordered the cronuts with cream and chocolate, the hubby ordered the sliders and I ordered hot chocolate and chocolate covered strawberry to take up to the room. I highly recommend this awesome place!!! We loved Jorge and the ambience of this place.

Love the ambience! Be it coffee or a drink, it is a calm place to just relax and unwind! Pictures attached

I stay at the Four Seasons about once a month for work, and I absolutely love The Press. The service is impeccable (as it is throughout the hotel) and the food is delicious. I’ve stopped by for breakfast, drinks, and dessert, and greatly enjoyed them all. The last time I was in town I shared the cronuts and banana split with some coworkers. The cronuts were a bit too cold for my colleague’s liking, and the manager was extremely apologetic and rushed us out some fresh ones. I can’t say enough good things about the Four Seasons or any of its amenities!

Classic Four Seasons service and quality. PRESS lounge has very refreshing, yet innovative cocktails that are made to perfection using «pressed» or muddled fruit to infuse the cocktail of choice. Definitely worthy of having a sip, seat, bite and enjoying the outdoor atmosphere with views of the pool.
Coupled with elegant and relaxing surroundings, it’s truly enjoyable! One thing to note is the reverse happy hour, nightly from 9pm to close the cocktails half off.

Lounge hopping in Las Vegas can get expensive if you’re visiting the swanky spots on the strip. But after a long hectic week, a date night was in order. I needed a fabulous drink, serene ambiance and classy service. I found all that and more at the Press Bar and Lounge inside the Four Seasons Hotel.
After we valet parked at the porte-​cochere the gorgeous doors are swung opened by several attendants smiling and welcoming you in. I just stepped into luxury.
The Press Lounge is quickly found as you enter pass a modern art structure and we sauntered off to the outdoor cozy patio where we found round glass fire pits, twinkling lights on trees and the soft sound of a waterfall in the background. A hidden peaceful oasis!
…
Since it was a chilly night we virtually had the entire space to ourselves. Spanish music was playing in the background and a friendly server came out to greet us. She brought us some menus hosting a list of appetizers and specialty drinks.
It was our last stop of the night so warm coffee drinks were sure to hit the spot. Lots of sweet treats on the menu to choose from. Pumpkin cheesecake, S’mores, Fondue, Cronuts… mmm all yummy choices.
…
We chose the Cronuts and the S’mores coffee drink. Perfect choice. Cronuts were warm and chewy and the coffee liquor drink had whipped cream and sprinkled crushed graham crackers. Perfect way to end our evening. Next time I’ll be sure to get a room and book a spa appointment. I’m coming back!

Swanky.
Right inside the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel, the b/​f and I came here specifically for some croissant doughnuts that I’d pre-​ordered for an event with Unilocal friends. This is definitely out of the way for us, but I have to say that I’d love to hang out here more if it were closer. First of all, the dough’sants are good, albeit pricey, as was the almond milk latte that I got, but, hello, it’s the FOUR SEASONS. I wasn’t surprised or shocked that it would cost me more. All along, I had wrongly assumed this place was a café, but it’s basically the hotel’s coffee bar. There were two friendly people working the bar and us when we arrived around 8:00am on a Saturday morning. My order of a dozen donuts was ready when we got there, each one in individual boxes– so fancy! Since we had time to kill, we had our coffees and relaxed in the seating area adjacent to the bar. They have comfortable seating complete with outlets and even phone chargers for different cellphones – fancier! There is also outside seating on the patio that looks very chill. The b/​f and I agreed that we’d come back soon for more swanky, fancy coffee and pastry, plus our laptops when we need a lovely change of scenery. And, when we have some extra money.

A really cool space… whether you seek an espresso bar, tea and pastries in the morning, tapas and cocktails throughout day and evening, or Reverse Happy Hour (10 – 12). Patio people will enjoy the location, which overlooks the pool.
Classic Four Seasons service and reasonable cocktail prices (half off during Happy Hour.) With comfortable seating, free Wifi and docking stations it is an oasis to relax, recharge and refuel; a quiet place to catch up hold a casual meeting or read.
Coupled with the elegant surroundings, lack of Casino noise/​distraction it truly is enjoyable. I’d almost hesitated to Unilocal it, but it’s worthy of having a seat, sip, bite and Zen moments everyone should know about.
Well done!

A plane crash at San Francisco Airport forced us to stay an extra day in Vegas. After we checked out of Mandalay Bay and had our luggage stored, we walked around and stumbled into the Four Seasons, which is encapsulated around the Mandalay ground. Their pool is right next to the Mandalay Beach separated by partition.
So we were killing time until it was time head back to McCarran.
PRESS is a lounge overlooking the pool area. It consists of a full bar and a coffee/​espresso stand. You can make purchase of coffee/​tea and pastries and sit at the lounge, or order cocktails from the bartender. PRESS have plug-​ins to recharge your iPhone and iPod dock. There’s complimentary wifi. We split our time between the cozy indoor lounge and the poolside wicker chairs outside. It’s perfect for catching up with friends or just chilling, reading a book.
A cosmopolitan is just $ 12 here — yes, at the Four Seasons and service is impeccable. They turned on the mist outside and parts of the section have cushioned booths that sit up to 10. It’s a gorgeous beautiful place hidden away from the Strip. I’ll definitely return for drinks in the future.
