Harry's Bar Cannes

Harry’s Bar was born on November 26, 1911 on Thanksgiving Day, (a sacred sign for an American bar). It is a bar literally dismantled from the 7th avenue of Manhattan (pre-prohibition 9 dry states) and reassembled rue Daunou in Paris It’s much more than a superb mahogany bar already polished by hundreds of elbows across the Atlantic that is installed that day in Paris, it’s a whole new kind: the Cocktail. Toad Sloan, the American jockey who has moved this bar from New York, calls on the best-known bartender Harry MacElhone who will resume a few years later to make this young New York bar, Harry’s Bar. At the beginning of the twentieth century, the legend was born.
