The Manor Bar at Rosewood Miramar Beach Hosts Rosewood London's Scarfes Bar
Rosewood London's celebrated World's 50 Best Bar makes its California debut at Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Award Nominee The Manor Bar on the American Riviera
July 13, 2026
MONTECITO, CALIFORNIA | JULY 13, 2026 – On Thursday, July 16, The Manor Bar at Rosewood Miramar Beach welcomes Scarfes Bar at Rosewood London — ranked #31 on the World's 50 Best Bars — for its first popup in California. A rare chance to taste the minimalistic yet innovative cocktails from the London destination, the residency will highlight fine drinking and the excellence of Rosewood, uniting two distinct bar identities under one roof for a limited time on the Central Coast.
A meeting of two of Rosewood’s most refined hotel bar programs, the one-night event reflects the shared philosophy and creativity behind both award-winning establishments, offering a rare opportunity to experience the London-based bar stateside, bringing its unique voice to one of California's most celebrated coastal destinations.
“Scarfes Bar has truly earned its reputation as one of the best in the world, and we are honored and excited to share their talents with our community. Collaborating with other creatives is such an energizing element of craft cocktail culture, and it is a thrill to welcome the team and work side-by-side.”
ELIZA HOAR, DIRECTOR OF BARS, ROSEWOOD MIRAMAR BEACH
A 2026 Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Award Nominee for Best U.S. Hotel Bar with two Pins from the Pinnacle Guide, The Manor Bar’s Director of Bars Eliza Hoar welcomes Scarfes Bar team led by Director of Bars Andy Loudon, bringing together two signature menus: The Manor Bar’s Chronicles of Cocktails, Volume V: California's Greatest Adventure, alongside Scarfes Bar's celebrated Heroes & Villains menu. California’s Greatest Adventure takes guests on a tasting road trip through the Golden State with inventive cocktails in custom glassware inspired by iconic sights and works of art.
Meanwhile, Heroes & Villains takes its inspiration from renowned British artist and caricaturist Gerald Scarfe’s art book of the same name, mirroring the work’s satirical spirit by examining the cocktail industry itself and reflecting the longevity of its trends. Championing modern mixology techniques, including clarification, distillation, and carbonation, the menu toys with “villainous” counterparts; the long-standing classics bartenders famously love to hate, including tropical serves, Cosmopolitans, Pornstar Martinis and Mojitos. The two menus offer guests an engaging evening that moves between The Manor Bar’s sense of place and Scarfes Bar’s clever storytelling around the duality of modern mixology.
ABOUT THE MANOR BAR
Inspired by its library-like setting, The Manor Bar at Rosewood Miramar Beach is known for creative signature drinks that pay homage to great works of literature. Recently named a 2026 Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Awards Nominee for “Best U.S. Hotel Bar,” awarded two pins by the internationally acclaimed Pinnacle Guide, and recognized by Wine Enthusiast in its “Best Hotel Bars in America” list and Sunset Magazine’s “Best of the West,” The Manor Bar pairs an acclaimed cocktail program with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Leather armchairs, rich wood accents, and a roaring fireplace topped with an original work by famed Colombian artist Fernando Botero set the scene for the bar’s signature menu, Chronicles of Cocktails.
ABOUT SCARFES BAR
Scarfes Bar at Rosewood London, which opened in 2014, is an award-winning bar inspired by the atmosphere of a drawing room, with live jazz music playing each day from a host of talented performers evoking a convivial and sophisticated yet intimate atmosphere located a short distance from London’s Covent Garden. The bar is named after British artist and caricaturist Gerald Scarfe, whose artwork adorns the walls of the bar and is encompassed within the cocktail menus. The mixology team, led by Director of Bars Andy Loudon, creates their very own home-made syrups and distillates within their Lab, which they use within all their cocktails and new menus at the bar. The drinks are a combination of minimalistic, but perfectly executed, textured drinks and innovative technology. Scarfes Bar was awarded No.35 at Top 50 Cocktail Bars 2026, No. 31 in The World’s 50 Best Bars 2025, No. 37 in 2024 and No. 41 in 2023, No.27 at Top 500 2024 as well as #1 Best International Hotel Bar at Spirited Awards at Tales of the Cocktail 2020.
