What makes Rosa Bonheur stand out

Rosa Bonheur is not a classic gay club, but a guinguette with a large queer regular crowd. Sunday afternoon is the key date: terrace first, dancing later. In good weather there are queues. Criticism concerns double queues, beer prices around €12 and sometimes unfriendly staff.

A good fit if you …

  • want to party outdoors in the park
  • want to go dancing on a Sunday

Not ideal if you …

  • are looking for an exclusively gay bar
  • hate queuing
Our tip: Come on Sunday around 6 pm to get a spot inside, and remember that the park gates close at night.
