Ernest Hemingway's best-loved bar has been restored to its original appearance, with rich wood panelling and leather arm-chairs. On the walls, 25 original photographs taken by the author of A Moveable Feast record the places that inspired the writer. As well as the single malt whiskies Hemingway so much appreciated, the bar also serves beers from all over the world accompanied by tapas, in memory of his love of Spain. Above all, though, this is the place to enjoy the famous original cocktails invented by the great Colin Field, voted world's best barman in 2001. From book-signings to conferences, the former haunt of Joyce, Greene or Sartre is still a vibrant focus of literary life. A tradition unique to the Ritz: writers may have their mail addressed to them at the hotel. The Bar Hemingway was ranked best bar in the world by Forbes magazine.
