Dark wooden chairs with leather clad seats surround the bar which is home to their elaborate variety of whisky, wine, rum, brandy and cigars. At the end of the saloon is a semi-private area with deep crimson leather booths encasing the border of the room plus a built in library above the rear booth. Mirrors and framed photos adorn the walls giving the cozy area a sense of lounging in a living room.Bar And Books prides itself on their unique form of entertainment; screening classic James Bond films on flat screen televisions played at each location every night.
