Better an Oops than a What if...

The entrance of Oopsy Daisy Garden is through a nondescript door at the back of the restaurant DonBuDon. After walking up the stairs to the second floor you are transported into one of Taiwan’s secret gems -- a garden-themed escape from the hustle and bustle of Taipei.The world-class mixologists use local Taiwanese ingredients and inspirations from classic European drinking culture to craft unique Taiwanese seasonal menus. In keeping with its multicultural roots (the Group Beverage Director is from France and the founders American / Taiwanese), the bar also maintains a well-curated range of premium tequilas, gins, and whiskeys for the purists. For food, patrons can enjoy a special bar menu designed and prepared by the chefs of DonBuDon.The Oopsy Daisy Garden motto: “Better an oops than a what if…” seems to encapsulate the soul of the weekend crowd, where the vibe is decidedly more “garden party” than the typical weeknight “garden oasis”. Though be warned -- it is a cozy venue so don’t be surprised if some weekend warriors decide to plant their flag here on a school night.
