The Museum Bar at The Savoy, London is a time capsule of the who’s who to have visited.

With nearly 130 years of history in its books, The Savoy London has carved itself a place as a cornerstone of classic British subculture and sophistication.

Among its bastions of prestige and aristocracy is The American Bar, which for generations has served up a collection of timeless aperitifs and delved into wine lists procured from far-flung corners of the world.

Wayfarer and sister brand HM recently visited the iconic hotel to chat with bar manager Declan McGurk about the venue’s history, traditions and ongoing draw as a venue on which guests can indulge in the finest of fine living and stamp their cards as having ‘sipped at the Savoy’.
