"The atmosphere of a great bar will affect most cultured men and women in approximately the same way. It will conjure relaxation, it will invite depth and savor to fellowship. It will encourage reflection. In short a great bar is a place of high purpose. A great bar is a way of life."
Esquire, 1954
Nice quote taken from the new cocktail menu of London’s Match bars, that I got sent by owner Jonathan Downey a couple of days ago.
