Bona Ventura

3rd arr. (Haut-Marais) · Paris

The Cambridge Public House

Cocktail bar

An English pub reimagined as one of the world's best cocktail bars: Chesterfields, 18th-century sea paintings and green-shaded brass lamps, run by Hyacinthe Lescoet (ex-Mary Celeste) and the team that now also runs Little Red Door. Drinks are precise and unusual, like the Treatland, a goat-cheese and Cognac twist on the pina colada.

Good to know

  • Eat the British snacks with your drinks: meat or vegetarian pies, sausage roll, or Welsh rarebit with Comte and Guinness.
  • It opens at 15:00, so an early-evening drink is the easiest way to get a seat; a stretch of counter can be booked online.
  • Zero-proof cocktails are on the menu, not an afterthought.
