Welcome to Looky’s Lounge Bar, the Isle of Man’s answer to modern metropolitan elegance, where Manx hospitality meets New York sophistication. Located within the iconic Palace Hotel in Douglas, Looky’s offers a glamorous yet approachable destination for drinks, dining, and good times—from daytime coffees to late-night cocktails.
The bar itself is a striking tribute to Art Deco glamour, combining classic design elements with a contemporary twist. With plush seating, bold lines, golden accents, and moody lighting, it evokes that timeless New York lounge feel—but with a unique island twist. And then there’s the view. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer some of the most spectacular panoramic vistas of Douglas Bay, making it the perfect place to watch the waves roll in by day, or enjoy the glittering lights of the promenade by night.
During the daytime, Looky’s is a welcoming sanctuary. Whether you’re stopping by for a quiet coffee, catching up with friends over a light lunch, or holding a casual business meeting, the vibe is calm, stylish, and relaxed. It’s a popular post-gym spot for hotel guests and locals alike, and the attentive service, quality coffee, and brunch menu make it a standout.
As the sun sets, Looky’s transforms into a lively social hub. The music picks up, the cocktails start flowing, and the space fills with a cool, diverse crowd. With live music performances, regular DJs, and live sports on screen, there’s always a reason to stay a little longer. Whether it’s after-work drinks, a weekend night out, or a pre- or post-visit to the adjoining casino, Looky’s has you covered.
The cocktail list is carefully curated, with a range of classics and house specials—expertly mixed and beautifully presented. There’s also a solid selection of wines, spirits, beers, and alcohol-free options, catering to all preferences. The brunch and dinner menus are inspired by international favourites, with a focus on quality ingredients and refined comfort food—perfect for pairing with your favourite drink or sharing with friends.
Looky’s isn’t just another bar—it’s a destination. One that’s equally suited to a quiet catch-up, a stylish date night, or a night of celebration.
