From the beginning
A story that began in the summer of 2007, the first chapter for Experimental. A bar tucked away, the beginning of the cocktail renaissance in Paris inspired by New York's clandestine cocktail bars of the time. Today, the story continues across cities from London, Paris and New York, to Venice, Verbier and Val d'Isère and finally, the Cotswolds.

La Compagnie St Germain
The original wine bar in La Compagnie’s fold, first opened in 2011 as a tongue-in-cheek nod to natural wine. A place to learn about French wine, one that quickly became a local haunt and paved the way for sister wine bars in New York and London. Now each their own hidden gem with hundreds of references, tucked neatly away.
Temple & Chapon
A classic 1950s New York chophouse seen through a Parisian lens, a new chapter for French dining with an American twist. A choreography of service beneath a magnificent glass ceiling where dishes are conceived by chef Mélanie Serre. Icons of Gotham reimagined, through steaks, lobster rolls and apple pie, served in Paris' 3rd arrondissement.
Frenchie Pigalle
A mischievous take on decadent dining, an indulgence in the heart of Paris' 9th arrondissement. Chef Greg Marchand weaves elegance with global cuisine, serving sweet bread nuggets, iconic bacon scones and a legendary banoffee to finish. A meal best enjoyed overlooking Parisian streets, a glimpse of Montmartre and Sacré-Coeur just beyond.
Restaurant des Grands Boulevards
On the ground floor tucked away from the Grands Boulevards, a restaurant beneath a towering glass roof to discover. A menu conceived by beloved chef of the new Parisian gastronomic scene, Giovanni Passerini revisits the great classics of French-Italian country cooking with fine-dining tendencies. Guests are seated in a landscaped courtyard with a bar at the heart. In warmer months, the roof retracts for a meal enjoyed in the gentle summer breeze.
Spa by Experimental Marais
An oasis of calm, a tonic for the soul beneath the city of lights. Through our doors, a sanctuary for wellness right in the heart of the Marais. A luxury spa experience to remember, from a subterranean roman bath and tranquil hammam to bespoke treatments that include massages, facials and body rituals.

Just downstairs, a Venetian restaurant reminiscent of an Italian film, where locals and travellers linger over a meal. Chef Denis Begiqi is at the helm, offering a playful take on Italian fare, a romantic twist of fate. An impressive dining room awaits, awash with marble touches, soft greens and rich red stripes, right in the heart of Dorsoduro.
Nights tucked away behind hidden doors
Behind unassuming doors, the sound of cocktails behind shaken, the hum of music in the air. A menu that boasts a delicate balance of classic cocktails and Experimental twists. The night beckons.
Behind the cocktail bar
Tucked away inside, a space that mirrors each city. A design steeped in history, a tribute to what came before with a nod to New York. An evening whisked away by cocktails, be it classic, vintage or something new. A moment hidden away in New York, Paris, London and Venice. A cocktail sipped at altitude in Verbier and Val d'Isère. A drink sipped by the fire in the Cotswolds. Each place uniquely different.
