Le Boudoir

“Lovely hidden bar experience in cobble hill. Nice wait staff & mixed cocktails. I recommend making a Rez and getting there on time for the burlesque shows”

“I recently rented Le Boudoir to celebrate a professional accomplishment, and they exceeded my expectations. One of the primary reasons I chose this venue was the opportunity to work with Nino, who has a rare ability to guide guests toward drinks they will genuinely enjoy—explaining ingredients in a way that feels empowering rather than intimidating or condescending, and always with an unmatched sense of humor. I’m noticeably more confident ordering at any bar because of the conversations I’ve had with them. Throughout the night, guests repeatedly commented on Nino’s skill and presence behind the bar; they engaged guests with ease while keeping up seamlessly with the pace of orders. The cocktail menu offers a range of options that suit many preferences without sacrificing quality. The Purple Drink was a particular crowd favorite. In addition to the standard offerings, Nino asked my partner—who was helping plan the event—for a list of some of my preferred flavors and created a surprise custom cocktail specifically for the occasion. It was an immensely thoughtful and well-crafted touch that added something personal to the evening. The atmosphere was another strong point. Guests enjoyed the snacks from the connected restaurant upstairs, and the layout—multiple rooms that support both larger group conversations and smaller, quieter interactions—worked very well for an event of this type. Although the décor is inspired by Marie Antoinette’s private chambers, it’s suitable for a wide range of gatherings. We rented the space on a Sunday night (when there was no burlesque show), and while the venue is somewhat dark at first, the ambiance quickly becomes part of its charm. Several guests also asked about the reservation process for their own future events. Boudoir was flexible and accommodating throughout the planning process. They provided helpful suggestions and offered several options to tailor the evening to my needs. I will certainly keep the venue in mind for future gatherings.”

“Bottom line: intimate space with amazing mixology. Long line: this bar is absolutely awesome. Hidden away, I wasn't sure I was in the right place at first. Once inside, the bar has two separate areas (pictured) with one Victorian style one with velvet walls and old timey decorations and the other a brick basement. The drinks are intricate and numerous, and the two were tried were outstanding. Overall a great hang out spot and the prices were actually quite good for the area.”

“Cute place, I didn't like my cocktail but maybe just picked wrong. Would def come back for a show sometime”

“The drinks were ok except for the root beer float which tasted like medicine. Did not look like the pictures online. Had a laid back vibe which I can appreciate but it was much different than we expected based on the website. The service was abysmal.”
