L'Arbane's menu includes the usual classics, but also some unusual creations in its regularly changing signature cocktails . Examples include the Tartine with fig, tea and goat's cheese, the Black Velvet with a combo of Mezcal, black garlic, red bell pepper and Chipotle, and the Musa with rum, tonka bean, banana and toasted bread. All intriguing creations that demonstrate the boldness behind the Arbane shakers.

What's more, the venue offers a daily Happy Hour from 6pm to 8pm, with all cocktails priced at €10. The offer also includes signature cocktails, which is not so common in Parisian bars. The bar also offers non-alcoholic cocktails and made-to-measure creations at 15€.

Finally, in the basement of l'Arbane is a vaulted cellar, typical of this part of the capital, set up for privatizations. It features a double bar, a dancefloor and a capacity of 30-40 people.
