‘World’s best’ bar for 2023 is revealed

CNN  

Singapore CNN — Barcelona has retained its grip on the World’s 50 Best Bars list as intimate cocktail joint Sips claimed the top spot at 2023’s awards. The list has also become increasingly diverse in recent years: Mexico City has four bars on 2023’s list, including the third-placed Handshake Speakeasy, while Argentina’s capital Buenos Aires and host city Singapore are both home to three top 50 bars. Bangkok’s burgeoning bar scene also enjoyed a strong showing, with Mahaniyom Cocktail Bar finishing 19th and the retro-styled BKK Social Club named Asia’s top bar in 13th place. If we add on top of that nice drinks and good service, I think it’s that needs to be recognized.” William Reed, the company behind the annual awards, has recently launched regional lists for Asia’s and North America’s 50 Best Bars, won earlier this year by Hong Kong’s Coa and the aforementioned Double Chicken Please in New York.
