Salon 39

When a martini comes with both an olive and a twist on the side, so you can choose which one to drop into your drink, and the bathroom is wallpapered with pages torn from the Savoy Cocktail Book, you know they take their drinks seriously. But Salon 39 also offers excellent food (the menu changes monthly but if the almond and ham risotto is on offer, don’t miss it). It’s outside the city center and so attracts locals more than visitors. For a couple of guests, the coziest place to sit it the enclosed two-seat space tucked away the end of the bar.
