The best cocktail bars France

This Poitiers bar is an institution. In the past, magistrates used to come here for a black coffee between hearings. Change of ownership in 2022. Le Gambetta has become a trendy place where people come at all hours of the day. Breakfasts in the velvet decor or on the terrace, quality croc/quiche/sandwich breaks, afterworks with gourmet bites and incredible cocktails. At the helm, Reda imagines original, perfectly balanced recipes. A delight to sip with friends. Very pleasant service.

From the smell of Churchill's cigar to the luminous vision of Van Gogh, Camille's "guilty pleasures" offer an astonishing alchemy. Winks abound on a menu that's as enjoyable to read as it is to drink. The delicious platters are tastefully presented. A few tables outside allow you to enjoy the end of the day before settling into a cosy interior where you can study the maestro of flavors at work. The Symbiose formula lets you compose your own beverage. The experience is meant to be immersive, and it is.

This new beer bar offers nearly 300 references of cocktails. Yes, you read that right, 300 cocktails composed of unique creations and custom requests! Three buddies are at the helm to offer the neighbourhood mousses from the North and elsewhere, as well as cocktails prepared with the passion of youth, and a beautiful wine and soft drinks list. To accompany the evening and the alcohol, you will have the choice between boards of cold cuts, cheeses, but also vegetarian boards and small things to spread.

Located just a stone's throw from Parc JB Lebas, Le Charlatan is a place where you'll be served potions that aren't remedies! The specialty? Cocktails! The menu, made up of classics and in-house creations (prescriptions), is impressive. The atmosphere is friendly and lively, just like the nearby Moulins district. You can also enjoy some very good platters or croque-monsieur at really affordable prices, a far cry from what's sometimes on offer! What's more, the friendly staff will soon make you a regular!

To find this bar, head for the marina! Just a stone's throw from the ocean, the Floor is the ideal place to sip a drink with friends. You'll appreciate the warm welcome and, of course, the terrace where you can watch the boats come and go. The cocktail menu is so extensive, it's impossible to get bored here! Mojitos, caipirinhas, spritzes, champagne and even non-alcoholic cocktails, there's something for everyone. You'll also be able to nibble on top-quality products from a varied menu, and get your groove on at the organized parties.

It is in a muy atmosphere that the Kiwi Bar welcomes you from Tuesday to Saturday, for a moment or an entire evening, until 2 am. Taste one of the 45 cocktails with sweet and exotic scents (with moderation, of course!). If the heart tells you, and before you go on the sifted track for a demonstration of your pas Latin dance, you can sit at the Kiwi Bar table for a tasting of burgers, pizzas or duck breasts. Then, because it is not a question of attarder at the table, under the colourful neon lanterns, the music will attract you to the center of the track: you have to play your wiggle. Guaranteed smiles and laughter, an excellent evening in perspective.

Le Pélican is a bird, a beer, a cocktail and in Lyon an excellent cocktail bar. Aymeric Tortereau - winner of some fine cocktail trophies - makes the good classics and creates new compositions in the Pelican's beak, which houses nearly 350 bottles, some of them exceptional. Warm decor, but it doesn't steal the show from the stars: the cocktails. Before preparing your cocktail, the barman chats with you to get to know you better and suggest personalized "variations". "Signature" with the Gold Snapper. Originality with the cocktails and bottles to take away to drink with friends at home.
