Harry's Bar: Hemingway's Retreat
  • Tip Rating:
  • Harry's Bar is probably the most famous named bar in the world - the one in Venice especially due to its association with Hemingway and it's a bit of a tourist trap.

    This place is ok, but nothing to write home about. Expensive drinks in what could be described as another American bar overseas (so said my friends from Detroit). It would be better to find a local bar where the locals go.

    If you do go here you have to try the Bellini (cocktail) which is the signature drink & at approx €14 it's fairly pricy. Don't get upset if a waiter shouts at you - it's nothing personal or so I am assured.

    Smart Casual at worst - this is a place to be seen so most are dressed up.

    Harry's Bar: The Cipriani head office
  • Tip Rating:
  • No visit to Venice would be complete without a trip to Harrys Bar. The story goes that the present owners father named it after an American named Harry Pickering who gave him the money to start up in business(I dont know the truth of this). Home of the Bellini cocktail.
    Unfortunately, one of these great drinks will cost you about 13 euros(last time we were there).
    Harrys Bar closes between the first Sunday in January until the beginning of Carnevale.
    On the day of closing, old folk are invited to enjoy a free feast. The sign on the door says 'Closed for reflection'

    Smart, casual

    Harry's Bar: Great Bennies
  • Tip Rating:
  • Harry;s Bar that Hemingway used to visit is very small. i was surprised how simple and tiny it was. It is alos very expensive about a 6 0z. Bellinie will put you out 12.00E., they are good though. We meet a nice person from America there.

    Casual dress

    Definitely the legendary HARRY'S BAR - A meeting place for the beautifully hip people. This bar has been in the news for over a decade now....

    And when you're here - don't forget to try their signature drink - BELLINI.

    If you're hungry, the floor above serves delicious food. Please refer to my "RESTAURANTS" tips for more info.

    This is Italy. Everyone is fashionably dressed meaning - no tennis shoes, purleeease! There is a reason why tennis shoes are called - tennis shoes. They are meant for the tennis courts.

    Harry's Bar is the watering hole for the who's-who and those who are not intimidated by the who's-who. Confused? O.K. - it simply means - When you come to Harry's Bar for your Bellini, DRESS TO KILL. Si?
