Eleven Madison Park to Host De Vie Cocktail Bar Pop-Up

This June, highly anticipated Parisian cocktail bar De Vie will transport itself to New York City for two nights only for an exclusive pop-up at Daniel Humm’s three-Michelin-starred Eleven Madison Park.

Taking place on June 11 and 12, the collaboration will see Eleven Madison Park’s esteemed beverage director Sebastian Tollius team up with Parisian bartenders Alex Francis and Barney O’Kane, formerly of Little Red Door, to preview De Vie’s upcoming menu concept.

Despite their geographical distance, Eleven Madison Park and De Vie both share a united commitment to revolutionizing the cocktail and culinary worlds, from chef Humm’s industry-shocking decision to go fully vegan in 2021 to O’Kane and Francis’s innovative farm-to-glass cocktail-making techniques which have garnered international recognition.

Across the two evenings, guests will be able to enjoy a five-course vegan tasting menu created by the esteemed Eleven Madison Park culinary team, carefully paired with a selection of soon-to-be-launched De Vie cocktails, all of which will showcase the bar’s sustainable mixology ethos.

While O’Kane and Francis are yet to announce a firm opening date for De Vie, the duo have embarked on a number of pre-opening activations and partnerships, including a limited residency at Mexico City’s iconic Café de Nadie, which sits at number 17 on the World’s Best Bars list. The Eleven Madison Park pop-up marks the first designated culinary partnership; its caliber hints at big plans for O’Kane and Francis.

Exact details on De Vie’s menu and offering are still under wraps, but according to press materials, the concept bar, “seeks to move against the trend, rethinking the ordinary, believing that true innovation lies in challenging the norm, embracing the unconventional.”

Tickets are priced at $285 per guest, and the evening will be hosted in the secluded Eleven Madison Park bar.
