Atomic Liquors

Atomic Liquors located in downtown Las Vegas is the city's oldest freestanding bar, with origins dating back to 1945. Originally known as Virginia's Cafe, it gained fame in 1952 when it secured the first package liquor license in Las Vegas and was renamed Atomic Liquors. The bar has a historical significance, serving as a popular gathering spot for locals and celebrities during the 1950s, where patrons would watch atomic bomb tests from the rooftop. Recent renovations have preserved its vintage charm while updating amenities. Today, Atomic Liquors offers a unique blend of retro atmosphere, a diverse drink menu, and a connection to Las Vegas' atomic era, making it a must-visit for those seeking a taste of the city's history.
