Fun and entertainment France

Since 2021, Aux Vieux Pavés has expanded onto Rue Buffon with a brasserie side and a catering offer. Everything is homemade: croques, waffles, gourmet quiches. The range of beers is extensive, as is the wine list. An address with a quiet spirit, with a games area, small lounges and two large terraces to enjoy the fine weather. The interior decor is enhanced by frescoes winking at the town of Semur-en-Auxois. Lucien Bottini's team generates a convivial good mood. Enjoy!

Ever heard of the bloodthirsty barber Sweeney Todd's? Lance and Margot have named their Bordeaux pub after him... But there's no danger of that here, where you can enjoy good beers and good burgers in a friendly atmosphere, not forgetting the famous pies filled with melting meat. The atmosphere is always lively: duringhappy hour, in the evening for broadcasts of major sports matches, and at lunchtime on weekends. It's not a big place, but you'll feel right at home. Truly "the smallest of the big pubs"!

The Lucifer is a beer drinker's paradise: over 250 bottled beers and 18 drafts. The counter is big enough to sit at, unless you prefer a bench near the darts. Once you've settled in, all you have to do is choose one of the delicious blondes or reds: abbey beer matured in oak barrels or the inevitable "beer flame" flambé. At the Lucifer, there are many activities: board games, improvisation theatre, concerts... Feeling hungry? The chef offers traditional beer cuisine.

In the heart of Bordeaux's historic district is Cafecito, a delightful tapas bar-restaurant. The sunny terrace overlooks Saint-Pierre church, where you can take your time over a drink and some nibbles with friends. The place is ideal for sipping an aperitif. You could stay at Cafecito all day: a coffee in the morning, a tartine at lunchtime (a choice of five tartines: salmon, Serrano ham, three cheeses...), a pastry and tea at afternoon tea and a cocktail at nightfall... Convivial!

Just a stone's throw from the bustling Place du Commerce, you suddenly feel a little hungry? The solution: the Curieux Coffee Shop. In this haven of creativity and quality, Auntie Claire runs this friendly little place with the help of Angèle. At the New Café Curieux, you'll find quality homemade products: savory cakes, sweet cakes and delicious desserts (decadent cookies, hazelnut brownies!), pastries, the famous "ptits curieux". The quality is well and truly there with all these greedy vegan and home-made creations. We accompany these good pastries with a gourmet coffee, topped with a spiral of whipped cream, a drizzle of hot chocolate and caramelized hazelnut chips or a mocha that combines the bitterness of coffee and the roundness of chocolate. The hot beverage menu is original and creative: we have the "basics" that cannot be ignored, with the pure espresso, the homemade chai latte or the vanilla or hazelnut caramel latte, the hot chocolate, the viennois... but also the quality teas, the cold drinks, milkshakes and smoothies... The "curious" drinks menu is made up of specialities such as Thor's coat, Dirty chai, Butterfly latte, London's fog, we'll let you discover them! Here you will certainly find your happiness.

Kévin welcomes us in his charming bike-café, just a stone's throw from the Loire River. After having worked in the aeronautics industry, this Nantes-based bicycle enthusiast wanted to promote the use of bicycles in everyday life in order to limit its environmental impact. Repair, maintenance or even sale of bicycles and accessories are thus proposed in this warm place. The little extra? Here, when you come to have your bike repaired, coffee is offered. So you can sit down peacefully in the coffee area to wait. With a hot or cold drink in hand, we let ourselves be transported by the unique atmosphere of this place. The welcome, the listening, the quality and the sharing are at the heart of this establishment. To be discovered!

This independent brewery continues to grow in reputation. Since 2018, the brewery has been housed in a former industrial hall, offering customers an airy, spacious space for an aperitif or to enjoy one of the organized concerts. The project was initiated by 3 young enthusiasts keen to share their know-how and conviviality. The organic beers brewed on site are waiting to be discovered, and can be accompanied by aperitif platters. The local beers are named after Marseilles islands: Planier, Pomègues, Maïre or Tiboulen.

Without a doubt our favorite coffee-shop, where the warmth of a cheerful decor, the happiness of an adorable welcome from Yannick and his team, food and drink, and a highly convivial atmosphere combine to make for an all-day dining experience. Somewhere between Friends with its sofa and the traditional bistro with its terrace tables, with an arty touch to boot, Comme à la maison lives up to its name. You'll feel right at home chatting, working, having lunch, drinking a specialty coffee or an organic tea, sharing a homemade lemonade with an artisanal pastry like this delicious brookie or a homemade carrot cake.

A must for more than ten years, La Part des Anges is a friendly place where people like to come to chat with friends over a glass of^1er Cru, a lunch or a dinner of original local specialties. This address has not aged a bit and it is still a great place to be, either at the bar or on the small terrace that stretches out onto the pedestrian street on Saturdays in summer. We like to discover the wines selected by the fine team while savoring, on the go, the tapas - top of the range - of the moment. A safe bet where local products are king.

Open since 1933, Bertrand has taken over the family business: a genuine guinguette on the banks of the Dordogne. The place is unusual and rather discreet, but well known to locals and dance enthusiasts alike. South-Western dishes are on the menu: homemade foie gras, duck breast or eel with parsley sauce, their specialty. Then it's on to the music of the concert, or the ball on Sundays: the dance floor is yours! So, are you ready to dance? A family-friendly address.

Like the restaurant, the bar at Saint-Régis Bistrot is decorated in Art Deco style, a perfect reflection of the period in which it was built, at the beginning of the ^20th century. Wood, velvet curtains and armchairs, subdued lighting: the atmosphere is pleasant. As the day progresses, you'll come here for a coffee, a tea-break, a glass of wine or a cocktail with friends, or to enjoy the café-concert on the last Thursday of the month. A menu of snacks and pastries is also available when the restaurant is closed.

This coffee-shop, run by four childhood friends including two pastry chefs, welcomes you in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Here, you'll enter a real American pastry shop, with the indestructible cookies, donuts and cheesecake, but also French toast or the house specialty, the pookie, which is a tasty mix of brioche and cookie with a chocolate heart.
