Atop the stunning new Thompson Hollywood hotel rests Bar Lis, a chic rooftop lounge that effortlessly captures the spirit of the French Riviera. Concepted and operated by Ten Five Hospitality, the new space features indoor and outdoor spaces to eat, sip, socialize, and dance in while reveling in stunning panoramic views and cultural programming. Inside, a chic Bernadette Blanc-designed space greets guests to stunning features from the start, including thirty full-grown cypress trees lining a 60-foot walkway, a ten-foot antique water fountain overflowing with flowers, and a sensual mix of blue velvet banquettes and blush-striped settees. Guests can expect to enjoy sumptuous Cote D’Azur flavors in sharable dishes by the celebrated chef Lincoln Carson while engaging in a weekly roster of lively entertainment. Each Tuesday night at 8 p.m., Bar Lis hosts a modern Jazz night called Jazz Eclectic LA; and on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights at 9 p.m., visitors are treated to vintage and contemporary DJ performances. Whether stopping by for a cocktail and a snack, or staying for late-night music and a nightcap, visitors can expect to be inspired by a touch of Hollywood glamour at every sip, dish, and turn.
