Purveyors of “high energy sublime dance-floor euphoria” Midnight Lovers have relaunched Downtown LA’s Bar Franca with a new vision that’s already bringing fresh life to the heart of downtown. A Danley sound system adds warmth to the “sultry blend of jazz, funk, disco, house, and Balearic beats curated by Midnight Lovers,” as gold lighting sets the tone for the bar – a collaboration between Gabriel Orta of Broken Shaker and Bar Lab Collective and Jonny Child, Assistant Bar Manager of Bathtub Gin LA.
“Highlights include The Lover, a mezcal-based mix of watermelon, hibiscus, and citrus cordial, and the Al Pastor Margarita, a tequila cocktail kissed with pineapple and chorizo spice in tribute to DTLA’s late-night taquerias. Zero-proof creations like the Bonfire Water, blending Optimist Smokey Botanical and Lyre’s orange, mirror the same craft and depth.”
