Description
Opened in 2015 by French bartender Nico de Soto and Greg Boehm, this petite, brick-walled space fits just a few banquette seats and stools. The menu pushes into unexpected profiles, featuring savory gin cocktails with tomato notes and bitter, tropical bourbon blends alongside non-alcoholic options like ginger rooibos tea. Despite its multi-year run on the World’s 50 Best Bars list, the vibe is low-key and set to an oldies playlist—though the entire room undergoes a total transformation during its winter holiday pop-up.
