Still happy about joining the basic intro to becoming a bartender with Romano. But, the place…read morechanged over the last three years. While waitress service is still great the quality of the cocktails isn't state of the art anymore. Don't get me wrong, it's still a bit above average, just not perfect. This speak easy style bar always used to be my favorite, but I can't say it still is.

This is a really cool bar that has a speakeasy feel to it.

The cool part about this place is that they make their own bitters, something that can't be said of most places. This place is small so I wouldn't wander in with a group larger than 4 heads. 5 stars.

Don't come here if you are looking for a good time and are from out of town, the bartender's will…read moreharass you and make fun of you if you don't speak German, I've been plenty of places around the world, (I only speak English and Spanish) and have never had such anti foreign treatment in my life, and am shocked this took place in a gay bar. I asked if the bar tender had any fun shots flavored ginger or maybe chocolate since it was a request from my boyfriend, and the bartender just sat there and made fun of me to another client for 5 minutes before recommend jagermeister, I happily accepted, then came back for a second round and was still made fun of and asked, where are you from, usa? Do they tip in usa? I said, I'm so sorry, do they tip here in Germany? He just glare at me and said don't worry about it. Wow, hellof a way to treat someone..... there were so many nice way to give me advice, even when I sit and happily take abuse but this old queen must be angry he can't get any so f**k him and his sh*ty bar, 1 star for crap music, boring patrons, and rude as hell staff.

I was staying at the Dorint Heumarkt hotel on business. After my meetings finished, I walked around…read morethe area for a few hours in search of the best bar scene. There were lots of bars close by to the east and northeast. Many of these were not hopping, but had a few clientele sitting quietly outside having drinks. It seemed like a city with tons of potential, but it was a Wednesday night and things were fairly slow. I wandered back to my hotel bar and got to know Julian, the bartender, who spent the "best year of his life" in Seattle and has excellent command of the English language. I got him to make SoCo Lime shots for everyone at the bar as a token of American tradition. People were very receptive to the gesture and seemed to enjoy the concoction. I felt very at home while extending goodwill to my hosts. Yes, there are many other bars nearby that offer more of a local flavor, but if you are feeling homesick, this is a good place to chill.

After exploring Cologne to the fullest, we were looking for a nightcap. Harry's New York Bar was on…read moremy list of the most reviewed (with a good rating) bars in Cologne (though you won't see as much Yelp activity in Germany compared to the States), and it was conveniently located to where we were at the time, so we stopped by for a drink half an hour before they closed. Ambiance (3.5/5): Harry's New York Bar is located in a hotel, though the bar has its own entrance, too. Think of it as an elegant hotel bar. Comfortable seating. Spacious. Along with a long bar which has some bar seating as well. So why not a higher rating for their ambiance? Well, this is pretty wild but there was a rat walking around while we were there. We told the bartender about it, but he didn't seem too concerned with the situation. I sure hope rats are not frequent guests here! Service (4/5): Outside of the rat situation, our bartender did a good job. Service in Europe doesn't tend to be terribly attentive, friendly, or efficient. And in Germany, they will often kick you out right when it's closing time. Not the case here. The bartender let us stay for a good while after they closed. Which I always appreciate. They even give you some snacks to munch on with your cocktail. That was a nice touch. Food (N/A): Outside of the complimentary snacks, we had dinner prior so I was on a liquid diet. Drinks (4.5/5): You would think that Harry's New York Bar is an American bar given the name. That's what I thought initially. I was wrong. Harry was a famous bartender in the U.K. who invented several famous cocktails. So that's what you should have here. They have a solid list of craft cocktails, many of them with an interesting blend of flavors and ingredients. I was happy with mine, though you will pay a premium here since it's a hotel bar. Harry's New York Bar has locations across the world. I was happy to check out my very first one in Cologne.
