Has anyone been to the American Bar at the Savoy lately ?

We have theatre tickets booked to see Come from Away in the middle of August.

That weekend we will be together 34 years (through thick and thin, ill health (me cancer three times) cochlear implant, lack of cash in the early years.

We will be married thirty years on the Monday and DH will have retired a week previously.

So we want to make a good day out of it, I am desperate to go to the American Bar so has anyone been lately.

Please and thank you.

Took DH for his birthday. It's fantastic - we sat at the bar and watched them make the most incredible cocktails. Just make sure you have a lot of cash 🤣

Have t been for a while but it's a wonderful place so go and book a table, explain why you're going and you'll be well looked after. Congratulations on your anniversary and facing all that adversity, spoil yourselves and have a wonderful trip!

Never been, but congratulations 🤗Wine

Took Dh there for his birthday. The service, drinks and atmosphere were absolutely lovely.

JorisBonson · 31/07/2022 18:09

I watched them carve ice into perfect large cubes for hours. Great whiskey selection if that's your tipple!

EllenWaiteourkid · 31/07/2022 22:34

DH is really into whisky, I think we will be cabbing it to the station and home again. Grin

Pre dinner drinks in the American Bar

Pre theatre dinner in the Crusting Pipe Covent Garden.

And then Come from Away.

Then..... the reality of us both being retired as opposed to the chat about being retired will kick in. Grin

The American Bar is very nice. The Beaufort is also very good and under the same roof.

Can you book OP? I love it but when I tried to go a couple of weeks ago it was a 45 min wait without a booking.
Weirdly enough I was there to see CFA as well- it’s fab. Take tissues!!

rightonthyme · 09/08/2022 11:30

CFA is brilliant, seen it three times and cried each time. So heartwarming. I hope you have a lovely time.

I’ve just come on to say Come from away is amazing 👌🏼
Enjoy celebrating and go spoil yourselves!

Love Come from Away. Seen it three times. Do men still need jacket and tie for American Bar?

skippy67 · 09/08/2022 12:53

"Do men still need a jacket and tie?"
No.

Chickydoo · 09/08/2022 12:56

Glad to hear it has re-opened. It was closed in May

AutumnIsHere21 · 09/08/2022 13:57

Have a wonderful time !

LuckyDipsy · 13/08/2022 13:43

Anyone know what kind of price the cocktails are?

EllenWaiteourkid · 13/08/2022 14:19

Didn't see any prices, 😂 but we will be having another so will check.

LuckyDipsy · 13/08/2022 15:22

Haha.

EllenWaiteourkid · 13/08/2022 22:52

The coverage was very dodgy, I posted this three times in the American Bar. 🙄

Three cocktails, £65 , it was worth it for the people watching, and the general OMG it is the Savoy. We googled briefly, very briefly an overnight, we decided to stick to the cocktail bar. Grin

Thanks for the info!

I like to go to bars on my days off to take my mind off work and have a nice rest. I have a few favorite places. However, recently I was recommended a new establishment and was told that on their website I could Read more. What do you think about it? I'm thinking of going there for a change. They say it has a pretty good menu.
