Bar Madonna
Bar Madonna
The Marlene Inn, Houston, TX
Bar Madonna feels like stepping into a Parisian fever dream that took a detour through the French Quarter, housed inside The Marlene Inn, this intimate jewel box is anchored by a towering nine-foot painting of the Virgin Mary salvaged from an 18th-century French church. Between the hand-painted ceiling mural inspired by Saint-Germain-des Prés, the candlelit ambiance, and windows overlooking European-inspired garden grounds, this is the kind of place where time slows down and every cocktail feels like a small ceremony.
