Top choice in Frankfurt & Southern Rhineland
Named for Sherlock Holmes' fictional home, this fabulous Victorian-era-themed bar with crackling open fireplaces bills itself as a 'criminal tea room and pub'. Vintage furniture including studded leather couches and book-lined shelves fill Watson's Club; homemade scones with clotted cream are served in the Tea Room; and you can sip British ales like Newcastle Brown in the colonial-style Adventure Salon.
Events range from murder mystery nights to magic shows.
