Library Themed Bars For Someone Who Loves Books And Booze

I have been a huge fan of books all my life. As I started adulting, I found a new love, and it was booze. Now they both go hand in hand. There’s something so exquisite about drinking a glass of wine and reading poetry, and sipping on scotch on rocks while reading a thriller. It’s just how it’s supposed to be. So imagine being in a bar which has a huge library. I would look so much better passed out in a library arm chair than in a club.

Battery Park Book Exchange, Ashville

If a bar believes in “Trading books by the thousands and wine by the glass”, which also involves crazy expensive champagnes, what more could you ask for? They serve really good wine and have an excellent range of books to go with it.

Bourbon & Branch, San Francisco

A speakeasy-style bar, which means you need to know the password to get in, it intrigues us in many other ways. All the walls are practically book shelves and the entire bar space is an informal library. So, if you are ever there, grab a book and whiskey and curl up!

A breathtaking library by a circular fireplace filled with of classics and best sellers, palatial interiors and a ‘book butler’ who will bring titles to your room so you can order booze (and books) from your room and never leave it, the Common’s Hotel and their bar has taken the game to a new dimension! Why didn’t anyone think about this before?

Electric House, London

This club is an exclusive space within the high-street Soho House, and I envy anyone who has access to it. In their words, they mix cocktails with chapters from 1984 by George Orwell. I am intrigued. Also, what crazy interiors. I could live here!
