Archiduc

Antoine Huart

A legend among jazz lovers while oxned by Stan Brenders in the 50's and 60's, this intimate bar was given a new lease of live when Jean-Louis & Nathalie Hennart bought it from Brenders's widow in the mid 80's. The Hennarts have done little to change its unique atmosphère and celebrities - major, minor and wannabe - sit in the old velvet armchairs beneath the soaring pillars in an art-deco setting unchanged since 1937, shipping the best cocktails in town. Open every day from 4pm.
