The American Bar at The Savoy

Located in The Savoy hotel, The American Bar is London’s oldest surviving cocktail bar. It has been offering American-style drinks since 1893. Here, guests can enjoy a sophisticated ambiance, accompanied by live jazz piano every evening. The bar also recently introduced a new cocktail menu, The Savoy Songbook, which has a corresponding downloadable album.
