Grand Cayman Travel Guide

"A literary-themed cocktail bar known for curated, story-driven drinks that aim to evoke moments in history; signature offerings include an E. Hemingway Special made with 1932 Bacardí rum, and the program is presented as a thoughtful mixology experience rather than a run-of-the-mill hotel bar." - Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila is a bilingual travel writer, editor, and content marketer.

Once in a lifetime experience. Truly one of the best most creative bars anywhere. The menu is incredibly unique and all of the bartenders are incredibly knowledgeable. The passion oozes from this place and the vintage liquor and liqueur menu is really unparalleled. I tried a 1938 Cherry Heering and it was perhaps the most memorable experience I’ve had at a bar. Really incredible, and the way the drink menu is built around stories is done masterfully. Must do on Grand Cayman!

Creative and thoughtful cocktail list. Worth a pop in to grab a drink. I’ve been told it’s the best cocktail lounge in the Caribbean. Only critique is the back bar is a little bright for my liking.

Amazing experience. The cocktails were so well crafted and unique. They were based on different pieces of literature which was cool. Our bartender was very knowledgeable and we had a great experience! They also had some light live ambiance music

Excellent and unique spot for elevated craft cocktails. Incredible attention to detail in every drink. Unusual and unique flavors and concoctions. Highly recommended for anyone looking for excellent drinks and great service. Food was also outstanding.

There is a reason this bar is in the top 50 in North America. This place is truly a one of a kind experience. Each cocktail is super unique, and is intertwined with great detail in a story, an era, a person, etc. The amount of detail and thought that went into each cocktail and the whole bar concept is truly incredible. You would be missing out if you do not check this out. Make sure your waiter/waitress gives you the full in depth story of each drink. 2/3 of ours did (awesome staff), and it takes you on a magical journey. I went here twice on my recent vacation. The atmosphere also goes along with each one of their cocktails. Any trip I take to the Caymans is also a trip to this bar!

The most amazing cocktail experience. Super friendly. This bar and Door #4 are some of the best cocktail bars I’ve ever experienced (including NYC). This island’s cocktail scene is one of the best in the world. Trust me, this bar is insane.

We stopped by Library by the Sea at the Kimpton Seafire hotel prior to going to dinner. We had no idea what we were in for but seriously, probably one of my favorite cocktail experiences of all time. Right away, we were wooed by the creative storytelling of each cocktail. There were also some snacks served. And you know who else was serving, the best bartenders ever Max and Jack! We had a few pre-dinner cocktails and loved the company so much that after dinner we came back not just for one nightcap, but a few. The conversations with the staff were as rich as their cocktails and we wish the night didn’t end. It’s obvious why this is rated the top 50 bars for 2024. For anyone who truly wants to imbibe and be taken through an exploratory world of cocktails and storytelling, and respecting the art of it all we encourage everyone to visit and enjoy the journey through spirits.

We had an Amazing experience, at Kimpton Seafire Resort, (Library by the sea) We try different cocktails. Jess & Silvia Bartender, we're knowledgeable & friendly. The atmosphere was beautiful, Every cocktail has a story which you can read in the menu. Highly recommend the place if you prefer to have a cocktail on the island. My favourite was almond blossoms. We finished with our favourite Expresso martini. Absolutely highly recommended place.
