- The New YorkerDecember 13, 2013“The menu features six kinds of Bloody Mary, which the King Cole claims to have invented in the nineteen-thirties. They call the original the Red Snapper, and it’s spicy, irresistible, and strong.” Read more
- Marc MayerFebruary 25, 2016Perfect for special occasions and raising a glass to loved ones. Perfectly made drinks with the most well-dressed bar staff in town. All under the gaze of King Cole, painted by Maxfield Parrish.
- The Wall Street JournalApril 10, 2012"Here an old-school barman will give you a nice gin pour and crack open your own bottle of cold tonic. Enjoy the Max Parrish mural, said to depict Old King Cole passing wind!" -Chef Gabrielle Hamilton Read more
- Marie La RueApril 23, 2023King Cole fresco commands this historic room at the St Regis. Worth a stop for the old New York atmosphere. Seasoned, knowledgeable bar staff. Heavy tourist crowd on weekends. Astronomical prices.
- Juan DominguezMarch 29, 2013The Bar is an institution in NYC! The drinks are well servers and the food is great. I love the classy atmosphere and the staff is friendly, educated and always give you a world class service. Cheers!
- PaddyJuly 23, 2016The bar is nice, of that there is no doubt. Apparently the birthplace of the Bloody Mary. The Red Snapper is heir house version of the brunch classic. It's good but you expect fireworks for $25!!!
- The Wall Street JournalAugust 3, 2014Here a fine old-school barman will give you a nice gin pour and crack open your own bottle of cold tonic. Enjoy the Max Parrish mural, said to depict Old King Cole passing wind! Read more
- Fortune MagazineMarch 20, 2012The King Cole Bar is great for business meetings - elegant, quiet, and historic. In 1934, the Bloody Mary was created here. The St. Regis is part of Starwood Hotels & Resorts, a FORTUNE 500 company.
- JeffreyMarch 5, 2014KCB&S is the spot where the first-ever Bloody Mary was served (though back in the '30s, it was known as the 'Red Snapper'). Essential Cocktail: The Bloody Mary
- WyngspanJanuary 24, 2014The birthplace of the Bloody Mary. We trust you will love your time at this classic NYC institution. Give it a rating on Wyngspan: http://bit.ly/1iuo89b
- Upscale hotel bars are some of my favorite places to go for drinks-St. Regis is no exception. BE SURE to ask the bartender for the secret behind the mural at the bar -you'll never look at it the same!
- @HungryEditor Ben SetiawanDecember 26, 2013No matter the time of day order a Bloody Mary. They are said to have been 1st served here. If a traditional bloody is not your thing, no worries. There's a diff one for each city that has a St Regis.
- FabianDecember 29, 2012The Red Snapper (the original Bloody Mary) is extremely tasty, quite spicy but not overly so. Also goes great with the tuna if you're looking for a snack.
- @JaumePrimeroMarch 2, 2014I feel so at home here. So much history, so much booze, so many Bloody Mary's!
- Jarrod KlawinskyMarch 22, 2017Iconic. Stunning interior and high priced but sting drinks. Ask for Angel.
- N AvedisSeptember 16, 2018Very relaxing atmosphere and high quality of food and drinks. Expensive but worth it
- Untapped CitiesJanuary 22, 2014This bar is the birthplace of the Bloody Mary cocktail. Come enjoy not only the drinks, but also the art! Read more
- Boon YapFebruary 5, 2013Pretty awesome drinks. Bloody Marys go down easy. One drinky, two drinky, three drinkies, floor (novices!!). :-)
- Alex PekarovskyFebruary 20, 2016They may have invemeted the Bloody Mary here, but the is no clue of it in the pale "tomato juice , pepper and vodka" version of it here + Barman was rude. 2/10 #dissatisfied #imakebetterbloodymary
- The birthplace of the Red Snapper (Bloody Mary). An iconic bar. Limited seating.
- The Corcoran GroupAugust 19, 2011Make sure you’re dressed appropriately as there’s a strict after 5 o’clock dress code. Once here ask Gavin to make you a Bloody Mary (they were born here).
- Damian BayonaJuly 24, 2016Cool setting but prices are 🔝 tho the Bloody Mary is claimed to have been invented here 🤔
- AmateurConciergeSeptember 6, 2019This legendary bar is just a small section of St Regis’s otherwise fairly bland lobby.
- Concert Ticket AgencyOctober 18, 2012Kick it SUPER old school here. Order a Bloody...they were born here after all. Upscale and classic.
- Bjørn LateMarch 7, 2016Got the Shogun Mary, wasn't impressed. A gin martini with tomato juice, for the price of a entree at most places. It wasn't very busy and we weren't waited on very attentively
