11 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10010
Clemente Bar opened in October 2024 on the second floor of chef Daniel Humm's three-Michelin-star Eleven Madison Park, in NoMad/Flatiron at the corner of Madison Avenue and East 24th Street. It is a collaboration with — and named for — Italian artist Francesco Clemente, whose original murals swirl through the room and around the back bar. The bar comprises a 38-seat Lounge serving à la carte food and drinks, plus a nine-seat Studio offering a five-course tasting with cocktail pairings. Like EMP, the food is fully plant-based. The beverage program, overseen by EMP's drinks team, includes a dedicated menu of "soft cocktails" and a fully non-alcoholic pairing option available with the Studio tasting menu. Named zero-proof drinks include the Proxy Fizz (Seedlip Garden, cucumber, green apple, amazake) and a non-alcoholic Kalimotxo. Clemente Bar entered North America's 50 Best Bars at No. 11 in 2025, winning the Best New Opening Award, and ranked No. 15 in 2026.

“The folks at Clemente Bar and Studio, perched above Eleven Madison Park (and from the same team), know how to take care of their guests. That extends from the service all the way to the fully non-alcoholic cocktail pairing that's available with their tasting menu.”— Resy (Right This Way)Resy, 2024 →
