The kind of bar in which colonial planters would have knocked back G&Ts, this retro watering hole (in business since 1921) oozes nostalgia. The bar is worth visiting even if you don't eat a meal at the adjoining grill room, where little seems to have changed since Somerset Maugham, who stayed in the attached hotel, tucked into its famous sizzling steaks.
