Emmanuelle

The Piazza
1052 N. Hancock St.

Bar/Pub, Northern Liberties

PYT owner Tommy Up brings highbrow cocktails to the Piazza in a setting that celebrates the highest of the lowbrow — the soft-focus, softcore French porn classics from which Emmanuelle takes its name. The menu — courtesy of local cocktail royalty Katie Loeb and Phoebe Esmon — includes must-have champagne-based classics like kir royale and French 75, as well as original Francophone concoctions featuring Marie Brizard cordials, pastis and Dubonnet. Dim lighting, velvet wallpaper and a little kitsch set the stage.
