Les Fleurs du Mal sits perched above the famed Schumann’s Bar am Hofgarten, offering an elevated, intimate haven for cocktail lovers in Munich’s Altstadt. Entering feels like slipping into a secret: you ascend to the first floor, past familiar surroundings, and arrive at a space of shadows and sculpted light, anchored by a signature long bar carved from a single timber piece. The ambiance is refined, moody, with velvet touches, dark woods, and a discrete elegance that lets drinks take center stage. Here, the bartenders are elevated as artisans: you might be invited to sit at the counter and discuss your preferences, watch ingredients be selected, and receive cocktails tailored to your taste. The bar is both a destination and a dialogue. The drink menu is a blend of classic and signature cocktails, with an average price pegged around US$17 per cocktail (as per 50 Best listings). Many reviews mention standout creations (a buttermilk margarita, for instance) and strong bartender knowledge. Though small, the bar commands high status: in Falstaff’s bar guide, it is rated among Munich’s top cocktail destinations, recognized for style, service, and drink quality. It’s regarded as “the bar of bars” within Schumann’s, an elevated alcove for connoisseurs. It’s open Monday to Friday from 19:00 to 02:00. Reservations are accepted via Schumann’s, and contact is shared with Schumann’s Bar. Though this is a bar within a bar, each visit feels deliberate and private — as though you’ve uncovered a hidden floor in a familiar building.
