Bar Ran
The bar in Bruges is a project of Ran Van Ongevalle and his wife Janah Van Cleven. After the success of the pop-up bar Palo Cortado last year, they decided to run a permanent bar. On the menu, of course, are the cocktail classics, but also a whole range of so-called ‘vintage cocktails & forgotten spirits’ made with the best bottles that the Van Ongevalle family have collected over the years. The entire bar is immersed in vintage style.
Sometimes the owner organizes a guest shift where an experienced mixologist introduces new cocktails. Ran met these experienced mixologists during his world trip and at the Artesian in London where he worked for a while.
