Le Derriere

If Ernest Hemingway weren’t perpetually broke during his Paris years, perhaps he’d have spent time at places like Le Derriere.

Located behind the popular Q Bar (you have to walk through it to get in), this lounge feels a lot like 1920s Paris, with a beautiful zinc bar, red velvet furniture, frilly hanging lamps, mirrors and beveled wall panels.

There’s a semi-outdoor space with decaying white walls for smokers (cigars available).

Booze-wise, the main attractions here are the champagne and absinthe — when we last checked, the bar carried 17 varieties of the latter — and the small food menu does French things like oysters by the dozen and cheese and cold cuts.
