I’ve been going to White Whale almost every week since they opened, and it never misses. Every visit is consistently great—from craft cocktails to the service. The owners truly care about their guests and it shows. They make everyone feel welcome and pay attention to the details that matter.
The craft cocktails are easily some of the best in town—no exaggeration—and the quality never dips, even when the bar is packed. The space strikes that perfect balance between classy and cozy, which is exactly what downtown Fremont has been missing. It’s perfect whether you’re catching up with a friend, on a low-key date, or enjoying a live DJ on weekends.
The interior deserves its own shoutout: Japanese anime-inspired decor, warm wood accents, leather couches, and low lighting that creates an intimate, chill vibe. Whenever friends visit from out of town, White Whale is always the first place I recommend—and it never disappoints.
Highly recommend if you’re looking for great drinks, great energy, and a space that feels intentional and welcoming.

White whale is a hidden gem of Fremont street. Highly recommend if you want a quieter retreat from the Fremont noise. The cocktails are AMAZING – legit the best espresso martini I’ve had. Value is great and bartenders are awesome.
Ps: the bathrooms are unhinged but I’m here for it.

I absolutely love what they did with this entire venue. Its clean, modern, artsy and upbeat. The service is fabulous from the door all the way to the bar. Such a fun atmosphere to chill, drink, and vibe the night away. There is alot of attention to detail in the design of this place. They have the bar and bathroom countertops boasting the Japanese art form of Kintsugi! I also adored how the ladies bathroom was surrounded by mirrors, so cute and fun! not to mention delicious cocktails! Whether its on or off the menu, the bartenders here deliver

White Whale at Downtown Fremont in Las Vegas just took the cocktail experience to the next level! Their front room is fun, colorful, has a DJ and even has some awesome custom dragon ball z art on the wall. The servers and bartenders were very polite and provided very quick and friendly service. We also managed to make it into the back room which is a more exclusive and speakeasy sort of vibe. The back room is quaint but what I REALLY enjoyed was how their craft cocktail menu isn’t a set menu and it changes from night to night depending on the theme or bartenders’ choice that night… an Omakase bar experience, if you will! Which is something I personally haven’t heard of yet, and those were some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. I also heard they feature some amazing drink specials on happy hour. So we will definitely be back to try those next! Thank you for the incredible time everyone down at the White Whale! See you again soon!

Great new bar towards the end of the Fremont experience. Nice ambiance, and good mix drinks. One of the owners is born/raised from Oahu so come and support.
While there, hit up Evan and Daniel for good drinks. Very knowledgeable in mixology, if you’re craving something that’s not on the menu, ask them what they suggest and they can create something good.

Best craft cocktail lounge in downtown! It’s located right off of Fremont St and Las Vegas Blvd. Great setting for large groups or fun date night spot! Besides the delicious cocktails, the service is why we keep coming back to this gem! The prices are reasonable and they also do an all day happy hour every Monday for locals and industry peeps! Such a great addition to the downtown area!

Went here for a date night and it did NOT DISAPPOINT.
We made a reservation for the Captains Quarters. We were lucky Danny was our server and provided the best service for my wife and I and each drink made for us was AMAZING. Each drink is capped at 18 bucks in the Captains quarters and it was well worth the price and experience, so if you’re looking for a cheap drink, this ain’t it. Each staff member was friendly and the decor of the bar was unique and fun. Highly recommend.

Me and my fiancé were blown away at this hidden gem! Evan the co-owner was attentive, and took care of us extremely well. His apprentice Georgia was so sweet and is learning from a master mixologist! The drinks were 10/10! And not only did Evan explain his mission to keep locals happy but to keep us coming back with amazing pricing. He even gave us a tour of the back room speakeasy! They are having a Valentine’s Day special for you love birds out there you won’t want to miss it! Me and my fiancé will definitely be back! Everyone was so welcoming, it honestly felt like I had been going there for years. Everything was just simply perfect!

White Whale feels like the “adult swim” version of downtown — dim, warm, wood + leather + brass glow, and the kind of place where you can actually hear the person you came with. It’s tucked away enough that it has that locals-only energy, and once you’re inside, Fremont noise basically disappears. You sit down and your whole night slows down in the best way.
Drink-wise, I went Troublemaker + The Rumble, and they couldn’t be more perfect as a one-two punch. Troublemaker is crisp and refreshing — strawberry, cucumber, mint, and a ginger kick that keeps it snappy without getting sweet. The Rumble is the darker “don’t rush me” drink — smoky, spicy, rye-forward, with cinnamon/charred citrus in the air before you even sip. One’s bright and dangerous, the other’s moody and dramatic… and both make you feel like you picked the right bar.

Wonderful new bar! Very nice and intimate atmosphere. The mixology is truly top-tier. The bartenders really listen to what you want and deliver exactly that. You can tell the drinks are made with care, creativity, and skill. A great spot if you’re looking for quality cocktails and a relaxed, welcoming vibe. .Ryan, Evan, and Georgia were amazing!
