The Writers Bar is Raffles Jaipur’s pastel-blue library lounge, pairing rare books with cocktails and small plates. The farm-to-glass programme uses herbs from the hotel garden and freshly ground spices, with the Jaipur Sling and Mumbai Mule among the owner’s named signatures.

Score context
Raffles Jaipur's powder-blue library bar: Jaipur Sling and farm-to-glass serves, bookshelves, hidden cellar stair. Hotel guests call drinks and hosts (Prince, Bala) excellent; it is a palace-hotel bar — dressy, priced for in-house guests, and thin as a standalone night out.

Google 3.0★ across 1 review.
The fresh result is the same operational, bar-typed The Writers Bar Place ID. Raffles' current venue page independently names the bar, describes mixology and publishes daily hours. Keep its 3.0/1 score with the clear one-review caveat. Google gives a Kukas plus code with PIN 302038; Raffles publishes its Jaipur property address with PIN 302028, so the in-property pin and postcode discrepancy remains unresolved.
