New happy hour at Bambola, Tuesdays-Saturdays!

Parisian West Loop newcomer Coquette is having a spring awakening. Opened October 2022, the pinkest modern bistro and natural wine bar in Chicago is thrilled to reintroduce itself with a new, refreshed approach and a menu to meet every occasion.

We’re excited to debut a new dining experience at Bambola, full of flavorful shared plates with Asian and European influences that complement the innovative and transportative cocktails, natural wines, and spirit-free beverages. All set in one of Chicago’s most beautiful bar and dining rooms, boasting one of the largest island bars in the West Loop.

Stepping inside Coquette you are instantly transported to a pink, Parisian, Champagne-drenched dream where romance and the liberating energy of the French New Wave meet world-class cocktails, audacious natural wines and cooking done exclusively on charcoal and wood by Bonhomme’s award-winning culinary team. What better venue for a memorable date night this Valentine’s or Galentine’s Day?

Grab your special someone, book a table for dinner & drinks and turn up the romance this Valentine’s (or Galentine’s!) Day. You’ll be tickled pink by our deliciously vibrant drinks to accompany your favorite globe-trotting bites.

Since hitting menus in 2018, spiritfree drinks have been a mainstay and pillar of the beverage programs at all Bonhomme restaurants. That means that you can get a delicious, non-alcoholic sipper all year round! But we never pass up an opportunity to celebrate and what better reason to go all out than Dry January?! The team is ready to kick-start your 2023 resolutions with a bang that is anything but boring.

You’re never far from a transcendent getaway when you're at Bambola — and during Chicago’s cozy winter months, a party at the hottest new restaurant in West Loop is exactly what the season calls for.

Tick tock... Your chance to ring in the new year at one of our fabulous venues is running out. Give 2022 an epic send off with transcendent food, exotic drinks, illuminating beats and a festive atmosphere on New Year's Eve, and don't forget about recovery brunch the day after.

After having spent the summer immersed in the food and culture of Galicia popping up at Tribu and Beatnik Country House located within Bonhomme’s destination hotel, Casa Beatnik, Chefs Marcos Campos, Erwin Mallet, Shannah Primiano and Wine Director Colin Hofer are thrilled to debut a tasting, a la carte, and wine offerings at Porto directly shaped by their time abroad.

That time of the year is coming...and we're already getting into the holiday spirit! Travel the world one beautiful venue at a time with incredible event settings that are as unique as your holiday party, both large and small. A passion for globetrotting flavors, visual opulence and sustainable design are all hallmarks of Bonhomme—and a no-brainer to be included in your next celebration.

Step inside Coquette, and be instantly transported to a pink, Parisian, Champagne-drenched dream where romance and the liberating energy of the French New Wave meet world-class cocktails, audacious natural wines and cooking done exclusively on charcoal and wood by Bonhomme’s award-winning culinary team.

Culture, travel and style are at the heart of everything we do at Bonhomme. We channel our values into creating singular nomadic experiences for our guests — and our newest restaurant, Bambola, is a journey for the senses, an expedition to the East that weaves through a diverse cultural tapestry stretching from Italy to Xi’an.

From his love-letter to the small vineyards in Spain and Portugal at Porto to his spotlight on under-the-radar natural wines at GoodFunk, Bonhomme Director of Wine & Education Colin Hofer always digs deep when it comes to creating the wine lists at our venues. And we aren’t the only ones who think so. Colin was recently awarded the 2022 Chicago Sommelier Award from Michelin.

The saying goes, the devil is in the details. One glance around Casa Beatnik, our bold transformation an 18th-century pazo into a destination hotel in the heart of Galicia’s wine country, and it’s clear there are many 'devils' who call our casa home.

A soulful integration of luxurious lodging, wine, food, art and design, Casa Beatnik is an idyllic refuge in the heart of Galicia’s wine country. Designed by Maison Bonhomme, Casa Beatnik is a bold transformation of an 18th-century pazo into a destination hotel that offers guests more than seven acres of bespoke bohemian luxury, wellness retreats and inspired hospitality.
