As for hot drinks, there is something for everyone: Barista coffee, cappuccino, americano, filter coffee, latte art, tea, milkshake, smoothies or hot chocolates. At lunchtime, salads, sandwiches, bagels, boxes, buddha bowls and small dishes are delicious!

Tapas and small drinks, truffle croque-monsieur and charcuterie and cheese combo, plus a few desserts. The address stands out for its good atmosphere: it has been shining brightly since 2018, brightening up Dinard's nightlife. The decor is cosy and the welcome always warm. It's a real pleasure to enjoy Mathis's cocktails with friends, accompanied by their mouth-watering and varied tapas. Regular DJ nights celebrate Thursday afterworks and Saturday nights. A beautifully festive address!

In addition to its lovely bohemian garden, this bistro has a beautiful wine cellar, with more than 150 references that can be consumed on site or bought to enjoy at home. Globulle Rouge is also a restaurant. On the slate, a good choice of starters, main courses and desserts. We also advise you on the wine to drink with your dish. Relaxed atmosphere, tasty dishes and friendly wine, we can only advise you to go there. Many regulars meet there, remember to book. Vegetarians are welcome. The menu is not expansive, but you will find meat or fish with many vegetables! Something to satisfy your taste buds!

For all lovers of the seaside, come and discover the most western community shop on the continent. Aÿa offers a very fine selection of local creators and producers, all committed to an ecological approach, working only with organic or recycled raw materials. The place also has a tea room area, with a terrace in the garden for sunny days. Special favorite for the cookie bar and raw chocolate. The place is cool and cheerful. Ideal for relaxing after a walk on the beach, finding a local, ethical and ecological gift or simply buying your seaweed tartar, zero waste items, soap-shampoo and organic clothes made in Porspoder,.... In short, the circuit runs as we like it.

This emblematic Brest printing works has been transformed into a third place since 2023, thanks to the initiative of a collective of Brest residents. Beautifully restored, the PAM is a place for conviviality, reflection and the arts, with a rich program of events. You'll find stores, a bakery and a good time with friends over a beer. Here, everyone helps themselves at the bar counters and at the fine selection of local restaurateurs on site: seafood, burgers or vegetarian dishes, there's something for everyone.

What an incongruous name... But don't be mistaken... it is the place of relaxation and meetings that all the Pontecrucians were waiting for. Barely opened, it has conquered the hearts of the inhabitants of the region, for its excellent choice of books, but also for its delicious home-made pastries. Located in the former prison of the upper town, this bookshop café also offers exhibitions. It is the place to take a break after walking through the beautiful streets of this city of character, or after a hike along the Goyen.

Since 1820, it's been a place for java and more, where the world is remade with verve and fine bottles... La Java Café is the street corner café that's a must-see. It's one of the 200 most beautiful cafés in the world, and for good reason! Listed as a historic monument and voted France's most beautiful café in 2008, we love the owner, the decor and the atmosphere. We love the swing seats and the collection of dolls and unusual objects. We'll be back again and again! A must for an engaging and poetic experience.

The Ceili is a traditional Irish dance. The perfect name to baptize this Mecca of the popular, cultural and Breton life of Quimper, created more than 40 years ago! If you don't know where to go to discover the Quimper atmosphere, everyone will tell you that you should go there at least once. Most people drink a Breton beer, draught, but Irish whiskies, wine and other festivities are also served there. The atmosphere is festive, especially at the end of the day and on weekends. The team also often schedules concerts. You can come here for lunch and a snack in the evening. A beautiful address which since the 90s has also become the meeting place for Breton culture enthusiasts. It's in front of the Ceili (and the beer dispensing system!) that the triumph of the bell ringers takes place, marking the end of the Cornouaille festival. A unique moment to live.

L'Alchimiste stands out for its unusual decor and its good atmosphere. The places imagined by the company Skêné Décor, author also of the decoration of the Saint-Patrick or of the Maison de la Marine in Cancale, make an effect and plunge you out of time. An old church pulpit, books everywhere, a hidden gallery (which leads to the toilets), a fresco: the decoration is out of the ordinary and we dive into a unique evening as we like them. Cocktails and many arranged rums are to be discovered as well as the regularly organized concerts: festive!

The Cunningham's maritime pub is ideally placed above the Sablons marina. The view is superb and offers a breathtaking view of the old town and the bay of Saint-Malo. The decoration and furnishings are elegant and immerse us in a timeless universe. We feel like in the cabin of a captain of a frigate. In addition to the pleasure of tasting beers, whiskies, cocktails and various house specialties, you can also play a few games of billiards or take advantage of the musical animations and the regularly organized parties.

This friendly place offers a purring interlude in the heart of downtown. Take a seat on the small, brocante-style wooden tables and let yourself be tamed by the cats on hand. The concept is the brainchild of Sophie Allain, who opened a bar specializing in "purr therapy" in the Saint-Germain district, with a concept that comes from Japan and has proved its worth. On site, this cat bar offers a "cocooning, home-like" space with hot drinks, sweet snacks and a library corner. The strength of the address lies in purr therapy, and to create it, many charming animals come from various associations: so you can easily adopt them. So you can sit back, enjoy the cats present for your purr-fect fix, and watch them play with games and wall runs set out for them. Inside the bar, everything is perfectly organized, with automatic litter boxes and no pets allowed in the kitchen. The animals are chosen to be particularly cuddly and adaptable, and get on well with each other, so there's no risk of fights or feline depression. All are adoptable and deserve a second chance!

A cocktail bar and a rhumerie, Les Spray, situated just a few steps away from the harbour, invites you to meet with a drink, especially on the occasion of the numerous concerts that mark the year. Theme evenings are also organized according to current events. There is a small restaurant with a small restaurant to accompany the drinks. At the Spray you can relax and welcome.

It's the oldest Irish pub in Finistère! You will recognize it by its green facade painted with Celtic motifs. The Dubliners offers a fine selection of bottled beers and premium whiskies. On Tuesday evenings, musical quizzes set the mood upstairs! The bar is very cosy, you can enjoy a drink with friends in the downstairs room or upstairs, usually more lively. Major sporting events are broadcast there. Practical: a raised terrace allows smokers to go outside without staying on the pavement. Come and listen to good music with your friends and taste good beers! (In moderation of course!)

Café Albertine is a girly little canteen, perfect for lunchtime nibbles on vegetarian or vegan dishes or homemade sandwiches. But it's also a coffee shop! There's always a nice little corner where you can sit alone or with others, read a magazine or chat endlessly with friends. In the kitchen, Solenn fine-tunes the daily specials and pastries (oh, the babkas are to die for!). Here, you choose at the counter and then settle in. But what we really like is that the recipes are really delicious and full of freshness and pep! Ax detours from our various stops: vegetable and red cabbage tart, butternut soup, caramel brownie. Serve with ginger iced tea, chai latte or fresh juice.

A true institution in Brest, this Irish pub is located on the commercial port. You will appreciate the Anglo-Saxon atmosphere and conviviality, whether you opt for a pint on the terrace or an Irish stew indoors. Lovers of Guinness, Breton beer and farm cider can meet up to enjoy the atmosphere of the port or a concert of traditional Celtic music. Lunch and dinner are served here. The dishes are cooked on the spot and you will be delighted! Well done! Please note: the establishment also welcomes you in its Bed & Breakfast.

La Casa Havana, the first Brest Latin-American bar opened in 1996, has become a must! Decorated with warm colours and, above all, a warm, friendly, festive and multicultural atmosphere, this big bar down the Siam street attracts regulars, tourists and sailors of the Arsenal, on site or in port! All people do not hesitate to come and enjoy the huge terrace with stunning views of the Recouvrance and Penfeld bridge...

This is a Small and Not Great Britain pub! His name echoes an ancient Breton legend anchored on our shores. The City of Ys was based on the legend of the world's most beautiful city, built by King Gradlon, for his daughter. A city in which it is said that all excesses were allowed, made up of women, sailors, alcohol and party parties to the point that it would have been swallowed up by the waves to punish its people. So, in Rennes, we recreated an overview of this missing city Vasselot Street, and this bar has become a myth in turn. An institution of urban rennes, the City of Ys offers local beers (and sometimes from organic farming) the Ker Ys to pressure made also reference to the famous city immersed. The frame evokes a mixture between an abandoned church and a xviiie pub^, on its floor populated with deciduous furniture, orange stained glass windows, carved stones and majestic staircases that swivel in the center of the room. Romantic pub but especially Rock 'n Roll, it is frequented by lovers of the genre, for Pop Rock music, relaxed atmosphere and events. The most: the saucers, the sunny terrace, Irish music sessions and happy hour every day from 7 p. m. to 8 p. m. A beautiful address that blurs Brittany.

There's one patisserie where snack time rings particularly true. 4:30 pm: we enter, attracted by the cookies, cakes and honey gingerbread from Rennes in the window. Inside, we can sit down to enjoy them with a tea from Tea & Ty and a coffee from Felix. Among the pastries that follow the seasons, Saint-Honoré, Zonka, Moulins and Duarn' are divinely structured and balanced (some gluten-free). Marion also offers cocktails with infused plants. Here, the question of the ecological footprint is inseparable from pastry-making. We also offer a reusable bento bag for transporting your cakes.

A warm setting, a great atmosphere and a variety of cocktails warm up the good times! In the middle of winter, the fire crackles in the fireplace of this pub which is a beautiful festive place. The souls and spirits of the people of Saint Malo and elsewhere love this cheerful privateer's tavern. In summer, the floor is covered with sand and the mulled wine gives way to ti-punches and other specialties. In season, aperitif-concerts are organized and themed evenings: fun guaranteed. The friendly team and the regulars will make the evening unique!

Cousins Catherine and Pascale have been running Thé au Fourneau - also known as TaF - since 1987. This charming address, with its cake moulds on the walls and colorful lanterns, is located in the old town of Rennes, in a nook that opens onto the Portes mordelaises, the last vestige of the city's medieval walls. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city, Thé au Fourneau offers a break in a cozy, peaceful setting. So secluded, in fact, that the pace is quite different, and we recommend you be patient with the serving time... Then all you have to do is choose from a fine selection of teas and mouth-watering home-made pastries. We love that British touch: scones, carott cakes, tarts... Everything is delicious.From 12pm to 3pm, you can also enjoy savoury tarts, salads and tartines. Recipes change regularly.

In the port of Argenton, a former Conquet caseyer turned into an original tea room. To nip a macaron, swallow a kouign aman after a tonifying stroll on the coast: This is a perfect place. You can also buy regional lichouseries and some souvenirs. Notice to the greedy!

A very friendly bistro, with a warm and friendly setting, where you can stop to satisfy yourself with surf and turf specialities, or to simply have a drink. The friendly atmosphere can be clearly enlivened during major events just like the Spi Ouest-France can be for example. Ideal to enjoy the atmosphere of the marina, the terrace overlooks the quay.

Above Rochebonne beach stands La Caravelle. Nice observation point at high tide, it reveals the marine seasons, from heavy weather to superb sunsets. Comfortably seated, we like the panorama highlighted by its large bay windows and the very friendly atmosphere. In summer, the terrace is pleasant and the atmosphere festive. Hot chocolate at snack time or a cocktail for the evening, it is good to enjoy it. Concerts, piano bars and artists' exhibitions are also organized. A beautiful place that will open again soon!

Here, discover Ireland in the heart of the city of Saint Malo! The different levels of this old building host wooden tables around which it is good to meet in a friendly atmosphere. The nooks and crannies of the Saint-Patrick allow everyone to live together in peace: discreet lovers are not bothered by the happy crowds around... This traditional Irish pub offers an impressive selection of whiskies and beers, as well as a fine collection of rums and delicious cocktails. Concerts and sports broadcasts.

Maryland's pub is perfect for a good evening. Ideally located in the city center, this must-see has a large terrace, which is pleasant during the summer heat. The welcome is always warm and the friendly and festive atmosphere makes you want to come back: the owner regularly organizes themed evenings famous for their good atmosphere. Two screens allow to follow the big sports competitions and it is good to have a coffee in the morning, an aperitif or a last drink in the evening. We recommend it!

This ideally located wine bar, a few steps from the Steir, the Saturday morning market and the city centre, is a popular address at cocktail time or as soon as the sun appears. You can choose the ground floor, for the friendliness or the terrace on the first floor for sunbathing... On the menu side, it is distinguished by a fine selection of wines from all regions and with a preference for organic producers. Of course, you can choose to drink something else, including a nice cocktail menu, exquisite fruit juices and other beverages. We will add a special treat for the generous tapas offered at any time of the day, cheese dishes, around the sea or around the truffle, but also verrines of mozzarella di bufala or delicious pickled vegetables. The little extra of Saturday, after its market, you can come and eat oysters (9 € on 6)

It's a friendly and famous place in Carnac, a kind of island gargote with wood, ropes, marine accessories and straw blinds. Ti-punch, Cuban coffee or caïpirinha, the cocktails are the signature of the house and remind us of its exotic origins. Here, Martinique is never far away... The establishment has become an essential spot for nightlife. Around one o'clock in the morning, the atmosphere becomes hot, and during the high season, downright scorching...

This gay and lesbian bar, open to everyone, is a perfect place to celebrate! Close to the military arsenal, it is not uncommon to meet with beautiful military personnel: What more than one! All the excuses are good for breaking up! There are regularly themed evenings. Nice decor, warm atmosphere in the bar, but also billiards where you're fighting for the queue, a little Zen lounge, and consos not at all!

Here you will not be in a tourist bar. The hotel is a little away from the city center of Roscoff. Different cocktails and especially arranged rhums are sipping in this convivial place. Pirate, Bloscon, Tortuga, evocative names for this rheup of the city of privateers. Foam lovers will not be lost, a wide variety of English beers, Belgian, Celtic and English completes the map. The last argument for a stopover: the view! From the terrace, facing the sea, you will see the Saint Barbe chapel.

Le Hibou Grand-Duc, or "Hibou" to its friends, is a neighborhood bar, a very fashionable estaminet, a real headliner of the nightlife in Rennes. Located in the Saint-Hélier district, in a very trendy "arty-vintage" setting, it is located in a street that is barely off the beaten track, but enough to make it a meeting place for connoisseurs. It is established in the former workshop of Odorico, the famous mosaicist from Rennes at the beginning of the 20th century, whose original house is next to the bar. This allows you to admire the traces of the artist's experiments that appear here and there in the decor. Hence the Belle Epoque atmosphere, the high molded ceilings, the Parisian café style furniture from the last century, the subdued light which gives it this very special atmosphere... But far from being dusty, the Hibou is a place overflowing with life (concerts, blind tests, exhibitions and other varied animations), in which you have to come early to get a table! Many lively and definitely epicurean evenings take place there. You can taste quality beers, organic wines and to satisfy your appetite, boards and snacks are proposed (codfish accras or Mont d'Or with potatoes). A temple erected in the honor of the Rennes art of living!

Here's an institution, with the added bonus of a sunny waterside terrace. Les Matelots has been moored on the quay for over 20 years. And when it comes to programming, there's something for everyone. Visit their Instagram page or Facebook page to find out about the year-round program, concerts being their specialty. We appreciate the festive atmosphere, the warm welcome, the aperitif boards and the fine menu of whiskies, cocktails and arranged rums. Watch out when you come out onto the quay! After a few pints, the street is very close!

In the heart of the historic centre, it is a warm and lively pub, surrounded by old stones, facing the Saint Yves chapel. In a paved and pedestrian area, you can enjoy a vast sheltered terrace where you can pile up in numbers! The interior is reminiscent of an old tavern where you feel like you're finally coming back, even if it's your first time in. A warm decoration playing on a wooden bar, barrels around which to sit, bric-a-brac, the "emptying" space reflecting well the potash atmosphere of the place which consequently was elected for certain evenings of the collective "les Gérards". The walls are also occupied by copper pipes and old street name plates, baroque tapestries or decorated with old boxing engravings, and jars of home-made rum piled up on the shelves, which paints a picture. It is one of the meetings of the pop rock scene with many concerts and an active participation in the festivals of the city, which brings an eclectic clientele of students or executives bobo. A rich menu of mainly local beers (Ombre bleue, Sainte Colombe or the organic Skumenn), a pleasant selection of wines, and a Japanese whisky list! Very copious aperitif boards are proposed and you can also have lunch on weekends with delicious dishes prepared by local restaurant owners.

Welcome to the Galway Inn, a real Irish pub housed in a friendly stone building. A place where you can enjoy a beer, an Irish whiskey, a scotch or a glass of wine by the fire in winter, or on the lovely terrace in spring.

And if you like the sound of the fiddle, the bodhran and the flute, then don't miss the Irish session on Wednesday evenings and the concerts at the weekend. Authenticity and Irish warmth in Brittany. We love it!

Fancy a real coffee? At Café 1802 (the year the first coffee machine was created), it's a barista (Fred) who serves you! He knows coffee inside out, and knows how to prepare it, decorate it (the latte art is amazing!) and serve it at just the right temperature. Espresso routinely dethrones all other tastings, but here we learn that you can enjoy your coffee as mild as an infusion, making it aromatic and bitter-free (the secret of the Chemex), or strong and cold (thanks to the cold drip extraction method lasting 7 to 8 hours). A dozen coffees have been selected from small producers from Guatemala to Ethiopia, via Burundi and Colombia, and Renaud roasts them on site every week! At lunchtime, you can enjoy a cookie, a hazelnut banana bread or a slice of toast. The place, a touch retro, is calm and perfect for work or a break with friends.

This bar, it must be noted is open only on the market day and day of animation in the village during the summer. In a th century house, it is a picturesque bistro where you can come with the food purchased in the market some times before.

On Saturday mornings, after the market, you can enjoy an English breakfast with live music, watch a match (soccer or rugby) over a beer from the Green Isle in the late afternoon, or party properly in the evening! The entertainment is always in full swing.
