Bar Centro by Jose Andres

This place is a hidden gem, literally! Buried under the stairs in the Crystal Shops/Aria area, it looks empty and unassuming. We were starving, everything was closed or closing down to get ready for dinner service; this place was the only place open so we decided to give it a try. We were there at an odd time for lunch so decided to sit at the bar. Their bar menu was a revelation with a list of artisan nonalcoholic drinks as well, which was good for my friend who's taking a year off from drinking. Each drink has little icons to show you how it is prepared and watching them get made is half the fun. The bartender is so great, he takes his time to style every ingredient in the drink and lets you try different liqueurs and elements of the drink as well as chats you up and gives you tips about town. The food was surprisingly delicious especially the salmon bread and the tomato salad. We loved this place so much we went back the next day at which point we learned it's a Jose Andres joint - no wonder it's so great! The cafe is quiet, intimate, and has a beautiful and whimsical aesthetic making this a nice respite from the heat and business of the strip. We will definitely come back to this place whenever we are back in Vegas.

We were a group of five people and stopped in here for some tea and snacks before dinner. My wife and I had eaten at Jose Andres restaurants in Washington DC in the past and really liked it so we were hoping this would be great and it was. We ordered Plum Oolong tea and Caramelized pear tea and both were good but the plum was my favorite. We also ordered Chicken Croqueta, Puntillitas and the liquid olive. The Puntillitas were great and the liquid olive was an experience I had not tried before, it was really good. Our server was Daniel and he was great. I don’t have any complaints about this place at all and I recommend it. The pricing is very fair, see receipt which is for 5 people.

Stumbled across this while wandering around and came back the next day for a late breakfast. Loved finding a place on the strip that had pour over coffee! The avocado toast was tasty but a little hard to eat due to the thick crust. The jambon and manchego toast on tomato bread reminded us of Barcelona. Comfy seating and cool decor. Look up to see a James Turrell installation!!

Just found this new spot at the Aria, Bar Centro, and it’s awesome for grabbing a quick coffee or breakfast. The vibe is classy but still super chill. What I love most—aside from the great coffee—is the service! The young staff here are so friendly and attentive, which really adds to the experience. Also, if you need to knock out some work, it’s a great spot to sit down with your laptop for a bit while enjoying your coffee or bite. Definitely recommend checking it out if you’re around!

We found this little niche while looking for something sweet. To have with coffee. What a great place for a peaceful coffee and pastry. We tried the XUXO and what started as one ended up being four. I ended up having 2 cappuccinos and what a treat. Guatemalan espresso that was extremely flavorful. The service was awesome. Everyone was very elegant and classy. Highly recommend this little side stop.

Too pretty to resist—this café looks like it’s nestled in a forest, but it’s actually right on the Vegas Strip! If you’re staying at Aria or wandering around Crystals Shops, drop everything and check out Bar Centro—a Spanish-style café that transforms with the day. What I tried: Xuxos (Strawberry & Nutella): Crispy, buttery, sweet—like a dense croissant filled with pure joy. Honey Orange Cortado + Drip Coffee: One sweet, one balanced—perfect match! Why it’s cool: Morning = classic Spanish breakfast (hello, Ensaïmadas) Afternoon = next-level sandwiches with jamón, honey chorizo, or mushrooms & goat cheese Evening = Spanish bar vibes with cocktails, and elegant mini bites Perfect for a chill weekend coffee break or stylish mid-shopping escape.

I stopped in here Monday after doing some shopping for a quick bite. The seating area and atmosphere was so cute and inviting! The staff was so sweet and kind. I don’t drink but I really appreciate a cute non-alcoholic Mocktail and they had some beautiful curated ones on the menu! Everything was delicious. I loved how the bill came out in a little book. Little unique and whimsical details like that really make for a special dining experience. My server, Roberto, was very attentive and kind and I appreciated him answering all of my questions and offering wonderful recommendations! 10/10 would recommend and will be returning!

Update... These tiny filled croissants are still some best lil bites Couple of the best pastries I've ever had. Loved the giant orange one, a ensaimada "Solero", w orange curd and Chantilly. But that little croissant like one was so amazing, I think they calling it a xoxos with strawberry I could have one of those every morning almost would if it were off the strip and local price. But was worth a try even at the price it's at
