Le YONO Paris

Cocktails and shows

""Le YONO" in Le Marais in Paris is a cafe/bar hosted in the porch of a house & the bar is under a glass ceiling. I actually love their 'crazy Thursdays'."

I was taking a walk in Le Marais last Saturday afternoon. It was a warm day and I had rented a bike but I had also been walking for a long time. The streets were crowded with tourists licking their ice creams. I needed a short break in a nice environment. I saw that bar at the end of what looked like the entrance to a building. In fact this is a place which is hosted in the porch of a house, the bar itself is under a glass ceiling and then it displays 2 other spaces at the back of the bar, one mezzanine and a semi-basement where parties are hosted and DJs display their skills.

The place was fresh, light and cosy, and the owners at the bar were charming and explained the variety of cocktails they were preparing (more than 40 of those!). The walls had artwork of some artists on display which changes regularly and the nights are animated with different DJs and events.

I am particularly interested in the "crazy Thursdays" where they have a drag show and some nice music---every Thursday starting at 19:30. It's definitely a place to visit with some friends.
