At Square Gardette in the 11th arrondissement, Bar Principal is the Parisian bar of the Franco-Brazilian duo Ninon Lecomte and Lucas Baur de Campos. On this finely made white T-shirt, the logo sits on the front, and the back carries the “true remedy” drawn by Ninon herself: a serpent and a vial, symbols of healing.
A high-quality, timeless piece in the colors of the Brazilian flag, and a declaration of love to the house's cocktails.
Bar Principal
After the restaurant Brutos, opened in 2017, Lucas Baur de Campos and Ninon Lecomte launched Bar Principal in 2021 in the adjoining space, still facing square Gardette in the 11th arrondissement of Paris. The bar pays tribute to the botecos of Brazil, the duo's home country: here you snack with precision on tapioca cubes and their famous "not smash burger".
Behind the counter, mixologist Maxime Hinckel composes a sharp cocktail list, complemented by a selection of natural wines, designed for the beginning, middle and end of the evening. The bar takes no reservations and opens every day in the late afternoon; the best seat remains a stool at the bar, watching the drinks flow.
