Atmosphere so Frenchy! Nestled in the Halles district, it is the essential wine bar in Reims. An atypical place between its oak barrels where you can enjoy a drink on the terrace, its baroque interior and its panoramic terrace on the first floor. But if you are looking for a little piece of paradise in the heart of the city, it's in the courtyard. A 400 ^m2 area converted into a guinguette, with recycled canteen chairs, light garlands, hanging umbrellas, street art, a petanque pitch, the Sacré Burger food truck on Wednesdays and Thursdays and a delicatessen and cheese bar to eat. We could spend the whole day there!

Le Garde Fou is first and foremost an atypical bar where you can test 14 traditional French draught beers, some still in bottles and all from French microbreweries.

The festival is of all times in this temple impossible to circumvent! There is a perpetual movement here that intoxicates and melts with the scent of Guinness. Irish beer of reference, it is the link between all. It interferes in conversations, it is loved by the lonely, it becomes a chameleon, takes on shades of gold or amber depending on the atmosphere. Friends' reunions, student parties, dating know how to find their place, punctuated by a pool table or a concert. What's more, theme evenings and special rates on all beers are available to students during the school year. These lucky ones take advantage of the "happy hour" on certain products after 9pm.

Barely inside, we like the irresistible atmosphere of the place. A false decor, lit at lanterns where wooden casings and stools are scattered here and there… with a bit of imagination, you think you're in a tavern of the Far West or in a pirate monument where lots of robbers talk! The Berthom Brothers? It's primarily a reference pub on Metz and elsewhere since the sign is present in about fifteen cities and since we come here to taste many exceptional beers. It's a meticulous one, because the map is not far from fifty, in pressure or in bottle. And every proposal is accompanied by an interesting and useful explanation when you're lost in this tidal wave of blondes and brown. We have a small little for Maredsous 8 (brown) in pressure, for his subtle peat notes, or the Trappist Rochefort bottled for his powerful aroma. with small dry sausages or cheeses (consigned) to snack for a few euros… Attention, these beers are strong, they are really to be tasted slowly, to make the pleasure last!

Jeannette and the cycleux are a café owned by the owner of Groceries, the Linge and La Hache. The similarity between these establishments is therefore anything but a coincidence.

Muy caliente evenings in perspective at La Bodega! In this bar with a Hispanic accent, we like to meet with friends as it is tradition after the férias to share some homemade tapas with a salsa or aïoli sauce and to sip a cocktail on a latino tune. Between the mojito bar on Fridays during the summer, the flash tatoo evenings, the live soccer matches, the DJ mixes, the concerts that spice up the year's program, the atmosphere is always festive. Around an ocean board filled with cod acras, fried smelt, stuffed mussels, without forgetting the sardinette, one would almost think one was already on vacation under the sun of the Catalan coast.

Those looking for the temple of beer in Metz should head straight for the statue of Saint-Louis. It is certainly not the saint who will serve you a drink, but here you are next to the bar. The atmosphere is festive and lively, and it is difficult to come across expressions of boredom on the terrace or in the bar. With a reference of 500 beers in stock, 200 beers ready to be served on the tables and about ten draught beers, it's quite something to drink. To be discovered in lager beers: the Barbar, the Chouffe or the Averbode..., in amber beers: the Delirium, the Gulden Draak... But beware, they can be treacherous: soft in the mouth but strong in alcohol. With moderation of course!
