Insider Intel

Order This

Bloody Mary (invented here 1921) or French 75 (also here). Or a classic done the way it's been done for a century.

Best Time

Afternoon when the light hits the mahogany. Or late night for the piano.

Know Before You Go

Opened 1911. Hemingway, Gershwin, and every American in Paris drank here. The downstairs piano bar is worth finding. 'Sank Roo Doe Noo' - that's how you tell the taxi driver.
