Bars
TWR in the lobby, and the bars beyond it
The tower's own bar is in its lobby. Everything else on Crown's long bar list is a walk through the complex — some of it on the casino floor and closed to under-18s.

Crown describes TWR as “located in the lobby, Crown Towers” and serving classic drinks, gourmet bar snacks, high tea and cocktails. High tea runs at weekends from 11am, with the last seating at 3:30pm; the page also lists a matcha high tea and takeaway cakes. It takes standing functions of up to 30 people, with some seating.
Because it opens at 7am and sits next to the front desk, TWR is the natural place to wait for a room after an early arrival, or to meet someone who is not staying in the hotel.
Atrium Bar — champagne, on the casino floor
Crown calls the Atrium Bar its champagne lounge, with more than twenty champagnes, cocktails, liqueurs, wine and beer. It is on the casino floor: patrons must be over 18 and not excluded from the casino or the complex. Published hours: 3pm–1am Monday to Wednesday, 3pm–2am Thursday, 2pm–3am Friday, 12pm–3am Saturday and 12pm–2am Sunday.
On the river
Two of the restaurants on the dining page work as bars as well. Bellevue Bar & Terrace has a public bar, a terrace on Crown Riverwalk and live music during the week, and stays open until 1am, or 3am on Friday and Saturday. LAYAL has Middle Eastern-inspired cocktails and a balcony over the Riverwalk, open from 5pm Thursday to Sunday.
The rest of Crown's list
Crown's bars page groups more than a dozen venues as cocktail bars, restaurant bars and sports and entertainment bars — among them Velvet Bar, Lumia Bar, Lumia Rouge, Double Up Bar, Spice Temple Bar, Marmont, the Champagne & Oyster Bar, The Pub, Sports Bar, Echostate, Ocean 12 and Piper's Playhouse. Several are inside the casino area, where the 18+ rule applies; check the venue page before going with anyone younger.
Crown practises responsible service of alcohol across its venues, and its dress standards apply in the bars as in the casino.
