#LongchampSecretCity: Saint Ann

Happy Monday! As a part of the Longchamp Secret City Campaign, we’ve shared our favorite place to kick back, as well as where we escape when we crave a bit of culture – so today we are sharing our favorite spot to chow down and sip cocktails when we want to unwind: Saint Ann Restaurant and Bar.

You may have noticed we are always brunching at Mercat Bistro in the heart of Harwood District, but taking a short stroll next door, you will find Saint Ann. Though the inside of the historic school-turned-restaurant is absolutely stunning, we love grabbing a table on the garden patio (which is consistently voted “Best Patio in Dallas” by D Magazine) for happy hour with friends or a romantic date night. Since we constantly share how much we love live music, it’s no surprise the occasional bands enhance the experience. No matter the occasion, Saint Ann always has the perfect ambiance for relaxation and enjoyment!

With an upscale American menu that always hits our sweet spot, you really can’t go wrong with anything you choose. The charcuterie and cheese board is always our go-to appetizer, while the Saint Sangria or The Mexico City Mule are our favorite thirst-quenchers. Safe to say your palate will be pleased with the selection!

Need another reason to add Saint Ann to your Dallas bucket list? Visit the second floor of the restaurant to discover The Ann and Gabriel Barbier-Mueller Museum: The Samurai Collection, which is the largest collection of samurai objects of its type in the world. From armour to weapons, the museum is a fascinating and definitely worth checking out.

For a recent date night look at Saint Ann, I paired skinny jeans with a pom pom, off the shoulder top – two trends I can’t get enough of this season (see trend alerts: pom pom or off the shoulder). To add a little flare to the look, I wore these flirty fringe heels and added a pop of color with my new Longchamp 3D handbag – which is the perfect everyday bag!
