Well-known for being a Hemingway hang-out, Harry’s is accountable for the invention of the (now) traditional cocktails the Bloody Mary, the French 75, and the Sidecar. Stiff, white coat clad bartenders hold a strict gown code in test so shorts aren’t going to chop it. Pants (sigh) are required if you happen to’d wish to make it by way of the door of this historic bar.

Hipsters in Paris (2014) “All the things right here is old-fashioned. You gained’t discover artisan snacks or home made unicorn syrups. The bar has made few adjustments previous 1911 and it’s a good factor…The open-all-day-every-day boozer is finest skilled on quiet afternoons, the place grown males in white coats will whip up kicking Manhattans and ice chilly Martinis.”
World’s Greatest Bars (2012) “Cosmopolitan, subtle and stylish with a like-minded clientele, order a Dry Martini and take in some old-world type.”
