Lion Noir
Cuisine and cocktails in a picturesque garden setting
This roomy and airy venue manages to combine the popular eccentric taxidermy- and apothecary-chic looks with a hodge-podge of vintage elements – resulting in a surprisingly fresh and unique look. The classic bar with its extensive cocktail list is run by reassuringly competent-looking mixologists, decked out in waistcoats, and the kitchen offers delicious meals until 10 pm. A manicured garden is a delight on a warm evening.
