What should I drink? A Zorro with mezcal, pear syrup, lime and bitter vanilla.
After bringing cheap cocktails to rue de Paradis with L’Ours Bar, business partners (and friends) Enguerrand and Victor are back with a trendy little brother. Sticking to the wild animal theme, Le Renard the same concept: the decor includes eye-catching wallpaper and the atmosphere is effortlessly cool, with a hip-hop-electro backing track.
The cocktails are especially lip-smacking; like the excellent Jardin Anglais (gin, cucumber juice and syrup and lime), but the signature blends really stole our hearts. Like the refreshing Zorro with mezcal, pear syrup, lime and bitter vanilla. Prices are reasonable for the area too and the 6-9pm happy hour promises drinks at €6. If you’re peckish, there are well-sourced products like smoked buffalo mozzarella and hummus. Le Renard has really outfoxed us.
