Classic cocktails, live jazz piano, and opulent Art Deco design
























"The American Bar, established 1889, was the first proper cocktail bar in London, the quintessential melting pot of actors, playwrights, debutantes, composers, royalty and Americans feeling Prohibition. It’s where Ada Coleman invented the Hanky-Panky, Harry Craddock concocted the Corpse Reviver #2, and Erik Lorincz, first mixed his classic Green Park (gin, lemon, basil, genius). Ask to sit at the bar, use the first edition Savoy Cocktail Book as the menu and admire the bartenders’ clipped efficiency." - Emma Hughes

"Having made its U.K. debut in fall 2021, Savoia Aperitivo has already started making noise as one of the most exciting aperitifs and product releases of the year." - Tyler Zielinski

"The longest surviving cocktail bar in London, known for its art deco style and famous regulars, offering unique cocktails like the Pinstripe." - Ann Shields

"The historic American Bar inside The Savoy Hotel retains a prominent reputation and is ranked #5 in the new index." - James Hansen

"I report that a team from London’s famed American Bar at the Savoy Hotel will be at Parliament on Saturday, August 10 to assemble cocktail pairings for a five-course tasting, priced at $153 per person." - Tim Forster
