Rosa Bonheur

2 Avenue de la Cascade
75019 Paris

Launched in 2008 by Mimi and Zouzou, former owners of the legendary lesbian club Le Pulp, Rosa Bonheur occupies a 19th-century house in the middle of Buttes-Chaumont park. The main draw remains the Sunday gay tea dance, which pulls a dense, mixed crowd onto the huge terrace under the trees. Fair warning: several reviews mention a wait at the bar on the busiest days.
