Lady Bee

Lima

New Entry

A bijou spot in the foodie hub of Miraflores in Lima, there’s been a buzz about Lady Bee since its 2021 opening, especially considering it was named One To Watch just last year as part of The World’s 50 Best Bars 2023.

A solid Peruvian concept embraces both the cocktail and food menus, which are respectively driven by husband-and-wife duo, bartender Alonso Palomino and chef Gabriela León; they only use Peruvian ingredients that they personally source from the Amazon, the Andes and the Pacific Ocean. Drinks are thoughtful, often with a bee-related detail, while small plates for sharing have a fine-dining edge: think oysters with sea lettuce and alga tea.

The latest drinks list spotlights producers and smallholders: order the surprisingly mineral Oca Mashua, one of the bar’s most popular drinks made with Andean tuber distillate, and pair it with clams and Amazonian nuts.
