Rosa Bonheur is a guinguette in the Parc des Buttes Chaumont, in a converted railway pavilion with a covered terrace and a busy bar counter. It describes itself as a joyful and inclusive queer address, and it draws one of the most mixed crowds among the city's guinguettes: families in the afternoon, a dancing, largely queer crowd by evening.
The bar runs its own programme of DJ nights, brunches, film screenings and seasonal events, and it has hosted Pride House gatherings tied to the city's Pride weekend. It is one of several Rosa Bonheur sites around Paris, and this is the original, in the park where the brand started.
Expect a long bar, wooden terrace furniture under the trees and a queue at busy times, since the space fills fast once the evening picks up.
