Book with PearlWhy go
One More Park Bar sits inside Borisova Gradina; Sofia's most visited park; making the setting its main draw. Book it for an easy outdoor drink rather than a specialist spirits program.

About One More Park Bar
One More Park Bar, Sofia; Quick Take
Inside Borisova Gradina, One More Park Bar is built around an outdoor park setting. It suits a drink among greenery more than a visit centred on a designed interior. If the setting is the main reason to go, this is a natural fit.
The address, ul. Nezabravka 3-5, places the bar inside the grounds of Borisova Gradina. The surroundings do most of the visual work, while the overall mood is lower-key than the more structured drinks experience at Sputnik Cocktail Bar or The Cocktail Bar.
Its drinks identity is less clearly defined. If a specific spirit focus is central to your plans, One More Park Bar is a less certain choice than venues such as Bar Leather Apron in Honolulu, known for whiskey, or Jewel of the South in New Orleans, known for Cognac classics. Come for the park setting rather than a specialist program.
Booking is easy, with walk-in visits the expected approach for a park bar of this type. Warm evenings and weekends are likely to be the busiest periods, so an earlier arrival gives you more choice of spot. It is a straightforward outdoor option for anyone exploring Sofia's broader bar scene.
On a Sofia bar itinerary, One More Park Bar works well as an opener or wind-down. Sputnik Cocktail Bar is the stronger call for a more structured drinks experience with clear spirit depth, while KANAAL is the beer-led, neighbourhood-rooted option. One More Park Bar's appeal is its position inside one of Sofia's leading natural backdrops.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
One More Park Bar trades central tourist energy for a parkside sensibility, positioning itself on the perimeter of Borisova Gradina where tree canopy and quiet pedestrian approaches set the tone. The writing frames it as part of Sofia’s more considered cocktail scene, where drinks are defined by technique, sourcing and menu curation rather than flash. That combination makes the bar feel sophisticated and intimate: you encounter a neighbourhood spot that rewards attention to craft and conversation, with a quietly charming presence rooted in its parkside setting rather than in loud spectacle.
Best For
This bar is best for people who prioritise well-made cocktails and a relaxed, parkside setting—locals popping in after a stroll, solo drinkers who want a focused menu, and couples seeking an intimate date-night out of the tourist orbit. It also suits small groups who appreciate thoughtful mixology rather than noisy nightlife. The location on Borisova Gradina’s edge means it appeals to visitors who want an experience tied to lived urban space: a craft-cocktail stop that feels like part of the neighbourhood rather than a central hot spot.
Ordering Tips
Approach the menu with curiosity: the venue is positioned within Sofia’s recent wave of craft-focused bars, so bartenders emphasise technique and ingredient sourcing. Ask about the programme’s highlights and any seasonal or signature cocktails that showcase the bar’s approach to flavour and method. If you want context, enquire how drinks relate to broader trends in Sofia’s cocktail scene—staff at bars like this typically enjoy recommending preparations that demonstrate their technical strengths and thoughtful curation.

Bar context
Against Sofia's more defined cocktail bars, One More Park Bar occupies a different register entirely. Sputnik Cocktail Bar and The Cocktail Bar are the right choices if a considered drinks program is the point of the evening; both have clearer identities and more structured menus. One More Park Bar trades on location over craft, which is a legitimate offer but a different one.
KANAAL is the closest in spirit; a bar that earns repeat visits through atmosphere and accessibility rather than cocktail prestige. If you've been to KANAAL and want the outdoor, park-adjacent version of that low-key energy, One More Park Bar is the logical next step. FlipFlop sits in a different casual tier and is worth comparing if price is the primary filter.
For groups or visitors who want the easiest possible bar experience with a strong visual payoff, One More Park Bar wins on setting. For anyone who prioritises spirits depth or cocktail quality as the deciding factor, the other venues in Sofia's bar scene make a stronger case. Use our full Sofia bars guide to match your priorities against the full shortlist.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is One More Park Bar good for groups?
The open setting inside Borisova Gradina gives groups more flexibility than a standard indoor bar. For larger parties, arrive early to secure enough seating, especially on warm evenings when the bar draws a crowd. If you need a guaranteed private setup, check directly with the venue, as no formal group booking policy is documented.
Does One More Park Bar have happy hour deals?
No happy hour details are documented for One More Park Bar. If discounted hours are a priority, KANAAL, Sofia's craft beer bar since 2011, has a more established reputation for deals and a documented drinks programme worth calling ahead about.
What's the signature drink at One More Park Bar?
No specific signature drink is documented for One More Park Bar. The park location inside Borisova Gradina points to a setting suited to outdoor summer drinking, but without confirmed menu data, ordering what the bar is pouring that day is the safest approach.
Is the food good at One More Park Bar?
No food offering is documented for the venue. Treat it as a drinks stop rather than a dining destination. If you need food alongside drinks, FlipFlop or other nearby Sofia options are worth considering instead.
Is One More Park Bar good for a date?
The Borisova Gradina setting suits a relaxed, low-pressure date, particularly in good weather. It works better for a casual early-evening drink than a formal dinner date. For more atmosphere and a confirmed cocktail list, Sputnik Cocktail Bar is a stronger choice for a dedicated date-night venue.
Do I need a reservation at One More Park Bar?
No reservation system is documented for One More Park Bar. Walk-in is the likely format, but on warm Sofia evenings the park bar can fill quickly. Arriving before peak hours on weekends is the practical move if seating matters to you.
What's the crowd like at One More Park Bar?
Inside one of Sofia's most frequented parks, the crowd is likely to be local and mixed-age, drawn by the outdoor setting rather than a niche drinks concept. Expect a relaxed, neighbourhood feel instead of the curated bar-scene crowd at The Cocktail Bar or Sputnik. It suits casual drinkers more than cocktail enthusiasts.
