Bemelmans Bar

"At Bemelmans, Ludwig Bemelman's illustrations—you might remember them from the Madeline books—adorn the walls. In one panel, a bunny smokes a cigar in Central Park; in another, a man hands a boy a clutch of balloons. This is a bar where gawking is permissible. The cocktails here very much depend on who’s making them: an Old Fashioned might be a bit watery, a whiskey sour too tart. But often a dirty gin Martini is just perfectly executed. Everything is expensive—it’s clear why you’re here—so take the edge off that sensation by digging into the free, hearty snacks that float your way."

"The Best Martini In New York: It’s a tie, between Bemelmens Bar, Lobby Bar at the Chelsea Hotel & Bowery Lobby – Manhattan. We couldn’t decide on just one bar, so we’re offering you three. After all, if you’re looking for a good cocktail in New York City, there’s no better place to head to than a hotel lobby bar – especially if that drink is a martini. [Service95]"

"Il bar leggendario dell’Upper East Side, aperto nel 1947, è amato tutto l’anno da personaggi dell'alta società, politici, star del cinema e imprenditori con il suo vasto (e famosissimo) menù di cocktail e la musica dal vivo. Ma per le feste diventa magico grazie alle decorazioni di luci, alberi e ghirlande che addobbano l’hotel sulla 76esima Strada e Madison Avenue."

Alle pareti notate gli affascinanti murales di Ludwig Bemelman, l’autore dei libri per ragazzi Madeline da cui il bar prende il nome. Arrivate prima delle 21 se non volete pagare una cover (da $15 a $35 per persona)."

"the iconic piano bar at the Upper East Side’s historic Carlyle Hotel. Here, things are done properly. Have been since 1947. Waiters wear white coats. Cocktails, served exclusively in etched crystal glasses, arrive on silver trays. Fancy little bowls full of fancy little bar snacks adorn the tables. Murals by Ludwig Bemelmans—of the Madeline children’s book fame—decorate the walls. And some of the country’s most celebrated jazz pianists still play the black and whites nightly. It is a place completely synonymous with old-school New York City glamour."

"Visiting the bar at the Carlyle Hotel is like stepping into old New York. The drinks are expensive, the ceiling is covered in gold leaf, and the waiters are all in white jackets. But the real charm (and the landmark status) of this place comes from the whimsical painted lampshades and murals lining every wall: They were done by Ludwig Bemelmans, the bar’s namesake and, more famously, the creator of the book Madeline."
