Voted No 1 at the World’s Best Bars 2016, New York’s celebrated Irish drinking tavern 'The Dead Rabbit' is rolling its wagons into Claridge’s Bar for an exclusive, week-long pop-up.

The multi-award-winning, 19th-century-style watering hole will be authentically recreated, complete with ragtime piano playing and authentic New York-style service, bringing Manhattan to the heart of Mayfair this August. The main Claridge’s Bar area will be transformed into ‘The Parlor’ from their sought after second floor with pub-style banquets, bar stools and fabricated walls mirroring the eclectic artistry of the Dead Rabbit interiors.

Originally the brainchild of Irishmen Sean Muldoon and Jack McGarry, The Dead Rabbit is named after a notorious Irish street gang that patrolled Lower Manhattan during the mid-19th century. The story of gun-totin’ gang leader John Morissey, is told through the bar’s graphic comic-style cocktail menu, which is also being replicated for the Claridge’s pop-up. 

A place of pilgrimage for cocktail lovers, The Dead Rabbit occupies a landmark three-storey building in Lower Manhattan, dating back to 1828. The Claridge’s pop-up will recreate its second-floor ‘Parlor’ (pictured), serving an edited choice of its signature cocktails and specialities from its hearty food menu.
