Bobo
About Bobo
Located on a quintessential West Village corner at West 10th Street and 7th Avenue South, Bobo is housed in a meticulously restored 1930s townhouse. The venue is designed to feel like a French country home, or 'maison de campagne,' where the atmosphere transitions from a cozy subterranean 'Den' bar at street level to elegant, light-filled dining rooms on the parlor floor. Named after the French slang for 'bourgeois bohemians,' the space balances Old World charm with a stylish, residential feel that makes it a standout choice for intimate celebrations.
The culinary program focuses on rustic French heritage, serving seasonally-driven classics like coq au vin and tarte tatin. For private events, the multi-story layout offers rare flexibility; guests might begin with Champagne in the jewel-box Coco Bar before moving to the garden or the main dining room. The aesthetic is warm and inviting, featuring vintage accents and a layout that encourages a natural flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, perfect for hosts seeking a venue that feels more like a private home than a commercial restaurant.
