Catherine's Bar in Death in Paradise Is Real! Here’s Where You Can Visit It
Death in Paradise fans, get ready for an exciting revelation! If you've ever dreamed of sipping a cocktail at Catherine's Bar while enjoying the stunning Caribbean views, you’re in luck. Elizabeth Bourgine, the beloved actress behind Catherine Bordey, has spilled the beans—Catherine’s Bar exists in real life!
The Real-Life Catherine’s Bar – A Hidden Gem in Guadeloupe
While it may not go by the same name, the bar that serves as the iconic filming location for Catherine’s Bar is a real establishment in Guadeloupe called Le Madras. Situated right on the water, this picturesque spot is a must-visit for any Death in Paradise superfan looking to immerse themselves in the show’s charm.
In an interview with What to Watch, Elizabeth Bourgine shared that while filming at Le Madras, the unpredictable Caribbean weather often poses a challenge. “Usually, when we film in Catherine's Bar, it's a rainy day, so we have to wait for that to stop and then shoot the scenes very quickly. But it's beautiful—you can just sit there and watch the sea,” she revealed.
What to Expect at Le Madras – The Real “Catherine’s Bar”
If you ever visit Guadeloupe, stopping by Le Madras is a must. With a four-star rating on TripAdvisor, it’s a hotspot for both locals and Death in Paradise enthusiasts. One reviewer noted, “It’s always a great spot right by the water. I recommend calling for a reservation as it’s always busy being Catherine’s Bar in the series. The food is delicious, and the view is breathtaking.”
From vibrant cocktails to fresh seafood dishes, the menu at Le Madras offers an authentic taste of island life. And yes, you can sit by the ocean, just like in the show, and soak in the tranquil atmosphere of this fan-favorite location.
More Catherine & Commissioner Moments in Season 14
With Death in Paradise season 14 underway, expect to see more heartfelt moments between Catherine and Commissioner Selwyn Patterson. Bourgine shared that the bond between their characters has deepened over the years. “The producers realized that until Series 10, we hadn’t actually had any scenes together. But it was always clear that our characters were old friends,” she explained.
As Selwyn struggles with the news that his position may be phased out, Catherine will be there to support him. Their dynamic adds an emotional depth to the show, making them the true heart of Death in Paradise.
Could Catherine Find Love Again?
Fans have often wondered if Catherine will ever get a proper love story. Bourgine teased that while Catherine enjoys her independent life, she’s open to the idea of romance. “She had a romance in the first series, but unfortunately, he turned out to be a murderer,” she joked. “She’s happy on her own, but I think it’s important to show that she has a love life too.”
