The name stretches out in bright red letters on the vast black façade of this very nice bar, which has quickly won over a loyal following. In front of the façade, on the terrace, large tables of friends. Behind the large bay windows that open, a room with different spaces, furnished with nice sofas giving a warm atmosphere. We like the contrast between the industrial and cosy side. As of the weekend, the young people take the tables by storm to share cocktails and planks of cold cuts, while listening to the concerts which punctuate the season. Very nice!

Are you familiar with pole dancing? Both sporting and acrobatic, this discipline takes place around a vertical bar. Very sensual, this dance allows women to develop flexibility, muscularity and to express their femininity! At the SC Club, we don't take dance classes but we come to admire the show around the breathtaking and sometimes a little bit daring performances of the artists. This gentlemen's club, is open to gentlemen, it allows them to spend a moment over a drink while discussing or admiring the "polers". This sexy cabaret is also ideal for a bachelor party (EVG). The bride and groom can also rent a limousine as an option! Far from prejudices, the SC Club is a night bar open to all with guaranteed good humour. The principle is always festive, the girls play the game of seduction but the challenge stops there! Here, businessmen rub shoulders with students or gangs of friends on the prowl. It must be admitted, the pleasure of the eyes is there in front of these artists with the bodies of naiads, so lightly dressed and worthy of the most beautiful lingerie advertisements. Options exist allowing girls to do stripteases "à la carte" (always for the unique pleasure of the eyes!) The club celebrated its sixth anniversary in September 2020 with some surprises.

This charming address next to the Mélusine tower is a British enclave! Paul and Karen fell in love with Vouvant. The room is cute, the welcome charming and the atmosphere friendly. We stop there to drink a Guiness beer or one of the English teas with the traditional carrot cake. At the back, an adorable terrace where you can discover specialties from across the Channel like pies or curries that are served alongside traditional French dishes. Every Friday night is Pub Night with its exotic dishes.

Between the castle and the Toussaint cloister, this small restaurant (in terms of size!) has as much charm as the nearby Fine Arts garden. The menu is an anthology of inventiveness and know-how since everything here is home-made! Every day, sweet and savoury tarts and pastries are offered: will you try the Saint-Nectaire, coppa and artichoke tart, or the raspberry and white chocolate brioche cake? You will also find a large selection of fresh juices and teas (green, black and red) that can be bought in bulk.

Next to the drinks, a gourmet or healthy cuisine, colorful, local and organic as much as possible, with suggestions of the moment: burgers with home fries, bowls, aperitif boards and a hearty brunch on Sunday mornings. A refreshing and cosy place!

Installed in front of the square, on the market, the terrace stretches in front of the gray facade allowing the customers to take their ease and invade the pedestrian street, and in particular during the concerts where the music can even push customers to dance in the street. The guest star is the beer! The particularity of this pub: you serve yourself and pay according to the quantity "drawn". Also many beers in bottle, but also cocktails, like the Cougar (and not "the"), as the humor is also of rigor in this pub where the good atmosphere reigns.

Take your family or friends on an adventure at Le Daviaud, an eco-museum in the heart of the Breton marshlands, offering an immersive, fun way to learn more about the Vendée heritage.

Florian, Edouard and Julien welcome us in their secret base. Atomic's is a bar where you can come to enjoy a beer or a cocktail in the evening, or a tea during the day, in one of the three rooms of the place, whose decoration is largely inspired by the universe of Jules Verne who would have been born nearby. Let's talk about the decor! Both industrial and dreamlike, atypical and artistic, with a suspended iron table, lights that make us travel or urinals for the least original. And Atomic's is also a library with nearly 2,000 comics, which you can read and reread while sitting comfortably in one of the leather club chairs in the back room

The Théâtre de la Rue de Belleville, a remarkably restored former Renault garage, has been designed as a place of exchange. In the entrance hall, the tall light-wood structures, the second-hand furniture and the small bar where you can wait before the show with a drink quickly transport us into the charming living room of a country house. At the same time, the intimate auditorium has all the hallmarks of a professional venue, thanks to its real orchestra chairs salvaged from a hall in the south of France, its large stage and its imposing ramp. The program features contemporary and classic texts, often with a subtle comic tone, that speak to us about human nature. It is renewed regularly, so don't hesitate to consult the website or contact the theater to find out about current shows. For 2023-2024: La nuit du théâtre and Knock in September, Les Reprisettes to open the season, J'ai perdu mon mari, a Quebec comedy, Matthieu Bouchet, etc. Once the curtain falls, you can meet the actors at the theater bar!

Le 11 is open from morning to night, so you can enjoy breakfast or brunch for late risers, or accompany a plate of charcuterie, cheese or smoked fish, rillettes, oysters, tartines... with a good glass of wine.

A wine cellar, wine bar and restaurant concept: that's what this national brand, based in the Halles district of Paris, is all about. You'll find quality wines (essentially as natural as possible) packaged in bag-in-box (BIB). It's easy to think that nothing beats bottled wine, but you've got to get over your prejudices about BIBs, and Laurent will convince you to give it a try. The other good news is the high-quality, home-cooked cuisine on offer at weekends.

The principle: a team of 3 to 5 people locked in a space, a scenario, and 60 minutes to escape by solving an enigma. To do this, the game masters give you clues. The participants are the actors in the game. Each room has its own theme. Five missions are proposed. When the hour is up, it's time for a debriefing. It's a family game, with online booking.

It's the trendy bar in Sables-d'Olonne. In the heart of the fishing port, Le Bronx has a slightly "industrial" look, warmed by comfortable chesterfield sofas. In front of the façade, above which the name is illuminated in gold letters, there is a very nice terrace which is always full, whatever the weather. The Bronx is rather frequented by a clientele of thirty-somethings who appreciate the barman's mojitos and the atmosphere, so much so that in summer, the clientele invades the quay of the fishing port! The over 40s almost feel old.

Take a gourmet break in this charming world, a tea room with a strong feminine touch, and try one of the pastries with a good tea from the wide selection

Don't stop at the front, which looks like a makeshift shack. The address doesn't look like much, but enter this bar nestled in a real 1850's bourrine in its original state (typical habitat of the Vendée marshes), composed of a single room including the kitchen with its pretty stove and the bedroom with its narrow bed. A totally offbeat address, well known to the locals, where from the wooden terrace made by Loulou, accordion sounds, songs and laughter emanate... A popular ball atmosphere with concerts in season around a ham/potato or grilled sardines.

L'Aléa is a dining bar run by Jimmy and Antoine. At lunchtime, Antoine works in the kitchen to offer vegetarian pie with seasonal vegetables, simmered dishes or even dishes of the week.
