Bar Massimo on Korcula island in Croatia.

It's a turret to their ancient city walls. You climb up a completely vertical ladder through a tiny hole to get up there. About 15 seats.

Another vote for Soggy Dollar. Sadly, we won't get to make it there this summer since BVI is closed for tourism.

There's a hole in the wall place in Seattle at Pike Place Market called Lowell's. The bar is on the second floor overlooking Puget Sound. The drinks are fantastic! Always had fun times there when visiting my son.

Today I'll go with Griffin's Pub in Clifden, Ireland. I was there for about 10 minutes before they played REK.

Another vote for Soggy Dollar Bar. Willie T's, in Norman Island BVI is also up there for me, anything goes there
Victoria Brown Bar in Buenos Aires was a really cool speak easy that actually felt like a speakeasy. Im not a big cocktail guy but everything I had there was amazing. Also, tons of hot Argentinian girls there.

Leviano Bar, Rio de Janeiro. Live local music downstairs and a latin nightclub upstairs. Hot brazilian girls everywhere. Good times.

The Red Onion in Aspen, CO. Great bourbon selection and the owner and bartenders are real friendly and generous with the pours.

I can't remember the name but this reminded me of a whiskey bar in Vegas. It's downtown right off Fremont Street inside a mini entertainment block that is made up of railroad cars that have all been turned into small restaurants, shops, and stores. There is a small whiskey bar in the back that has the best bourbon and whiskey selection I've seen in public since the bourbon craze took off years ago and made even middling quality bourbon hard to find.

They pretty much had every bourbon you can think of including all of the rare ones that used to be the actual rare bourbons.

Oak & Ivy. That's a great place for bourbon drinkers.

That container park off of Fremont Street. Honestly a great place to spend a day night in Vegas off the strip for non high rollers especially

There are some great ones in Quebec City. Pub L'Oncle Antoine is a 17th century wine cellar and the bar at the Fairmont Hotel was spectacular. All in all, a beautiful city.

I agree with several already posted (Gruene Hall, Sunset Bar, Green Dragon) but wanted to add Harder Kulm. My wife a I drank a few ciders up there and enjoyed the afternoon with our then 3 month old there.

Three other neat bars are the top of One World Trade Center in NYC, The Temple Bar (their whiskey shop adjacent is better and more cozy) in Dublin and Icebergs bar in Sydney.

cheesy but enjoyed the tiki bar years ago in the bottom of the Fairmont in San Fran. Think it's been there since the hayday of tikis in the 40's and 50's.

This is my favorite but it has been closed for app. 15 years. The Soggy Dollar is another great one. White Elephant Bar at The Gage Hotel in Marathon makes my list, too.

The Chicken is better than is being discussed here. I think we take it for granted. Sort of like we take the gameday atmosphere at Kyle Field for granted. If you don't think either are great, just talk to visiting fans after their trip to Aggieland for a FB game.

I challenge you to say something derogatory about the Marines in that bar. Sarcasm. Big USMC officer (I think) hangout from Quantico.
