The bar where Tom Jobim and Vinícius de Moraes composed 'The Girl from Ipanema' while watching a local beauty walk by — it's a genuine piece of Brazilian cultural history, not just a tourist trap. The chopp is cold, the atmosphere is lively, and the location on Rua Vinícius de Moraes is central and walkable. Yes, tourists come, but so do plenty of locals who appreciate the history and the reliable cold beer.
