The best beer bars Brittany

Formerly a Servoiserie, Yoann Guillemot's Le Fût percute opened its doors ten years ago. An afterwork bar and beer cellar (350 references on draught, bottle and can), the venue also lends itself delightfully to festive events: weekly quizzes and blind tests on Thursdays, karaoke every first Saturday of the month, occasional concerts and open stages, broadcasts of major sporting events on giant screens, it's great to have a frothy drink with friends in the Kerlann area. Plus: beer and cider taps for hire for all events, private and professional.

Piccadilly, the first Saint-Brieuc night club is located between the train station and the city centre. As its name suggests, the atmosphere here is that of an English pub, with an impressive selection of beers (30 varieties, 6 draught) as well as coffees, and an Anglo-Saxon atmosphere: decorations, Irish music. You can eat on the go in the trendy brasserie. The very pleasant place regularly programs concerts organized by the Badaboum association and subsidized by the general Council of Côtes-d'Armor and the municipality of Saint-Brieuc. You can mostly see emerging talents, but sometimes famous artists. Did Pauline Croze, Aldebert, Loïc Lantoine, Alexis HK have pass by this pub and were all satisfied.

In the heart of the Recouvrance district, Le Grabuge is a story of friends. First, Maxime and Steven: friends in high school and now in their thirties, they set up this beer bar together in the walls of the former bistrot National, a neighborhood institution. Today, Le Grabuge has become a meeting place for friends, and it's impossible to spend an evening in Recou' without having a mug (or several, in moderation of course) from the excellent selection of craft beers. And don't worry, the name is more a nod to the neighborhood's reputation than a reality! You'll find a very cool atmosphere and a program of concerts, stand-up, improv and game broadcasts.

Want to take a break from shopping on the Rhuys peninsula? Located in the Z.A. de Kerollaire, this new beer bar has everything you could wish for. Nadia and Emmanuel, the owners, offer draught beers, wines and cocktails to drink on the premises and a fine selection to take away, particularly from Brittany. To accompany your refreshments, the bar offers a few snacks to nibble on, such as planks, hot camemberts or sausages. And while you're waiting to be served, why not play a game of darts?

Last March, this craft brewery moved from Theix-Noyalo to the Kerveau business park in Questembert. The brewery offers a selection of 7 beers on permanent draught, and ephemeral beers on tap. Collaborations with other craft breweries will also be available at the Horizon bar and in the boutique. Holder of the Nature et progrès label, the brewery uses raw materials from Brittany: the cereals come from Saint-Avé and the hops from Morbihan. The recipes are even freely available!

Olivier Sweboda (also manager of the Pause Attitude in Saint-Malo) and Mélanie Faille are at the head of this wine and beer bar in Dinard which combines a friendly and family atmosphere with good products. The place is warm and ideal for after works and aperitifs with greedy friends. The planks of cold cuts and cheeses will accompany a nice selection of wines and beers proposed to the customers. The musical animations make the place unique and carry us all in a good general atmosphere. Not to be missed!

This brewpub is hidden away in the heart of Chatelaudren, in a former warehouse of the Petit écho de la mode. A windowed corridor leads to a vast room, where metal beams recall the place's industrial past, while stone walls and mismatched furniture give it a warm feel. Behind the counter, the silver tanks ferment the different varieties of beer, all well-malted, spicy and not very bitter: blonde, golden, russet, brown and even pineapple white. Concerts, often rock concerts, are organized once a month.

In this pub located at the bottom of the Place de la Mairie, you will be immediately transported. The Beatles and the Anglo-Saxon culture are honored in this pub with a strong character and you can have a few beers in this vaulted cave, under the opera house, where you can find exposed stones, wooden tables, leather armchairs, padded sofas, a corner to dance, a smoking room and a crowd of people. The place proposes several local beers, among which those of the Rennes brewery Skumenn or you can be tempted by the traditional whiskies (not far from a hundred) or beers from across the Channel. A bit of London in Rennes and above all a big nod to the Cavern Club with its stone vault and its stage located at the back of the bar. Here we are in the mythical room of Liverpool in which the Beatles, in the 1960s made their debut. You can smoke like in the 1960s with the smoking room at the entrance, you can eat like in a good Irish pub with club sandwiches, cheeseburgers, chicken nems and boards. A perfect place to dance, listen to good music in the capital of Rennes rock and see, why not, emerge the future stars of tomorrow. To live and vibrate in Rennes in a cosmopolitan atmosphere!
