"With multi-colored marble pillars, soaring archways, coffered ceilings, and French realist-style paintings, this palatial Victorian-style bar (built in 1893!) leaves quite a first impression. An old-school drinks menu is similarly terrific, featuring good Champagne, a handful of well-curated local wines, and Prohibition-inspired cocktails (like the Ramos Gin Fizz and a potent Absinthe Frappe, made of absinthe, anise, sugar, and sparkling wine). Not into cocktails? Try an Australian whiskey flight for $45 a pop." - Kris Fordham, Laura Dannen Redman
