With one of the most beautiful views of the Promenade des Anglais, the Pool Bar & Lounge of the Radisson Blu Hotel has become a must for the trendy nights of Nice, especially during the Jazz Festival and in high season. The atmosphere is chic but relaxed and the service is as good as the place: the staff is very attentive and everything is done to ensure a pleasant evening. Located on the hotel's panoramic terrace, how could it be otherwise?

Already revolutionary in Marseille with its underground cocktail bar concept, the Carry Nation collective has this time taken over the trees of Aubagne and more particularly the park of a castle, thus proposing to taste cocktails a few meters above the ground. The cocktails based on fresh fruits and herbs are in the spotlight with many creations. The plants used are grown on site. Unusual for sure. Nice eco-citizen approach. Reservations are required as the number of entries is limited.

Le Grand Café Malarte invites you to discover its refined atmosphere. Inside, the stonework on the wall behind the bar adds a sharp edge to the modernity of the place. Another Arles institution, it has the class and flavor of the great brasseries. Burger, filet de boeuf Rossini, sea bream, risotto or chicken wok, everything is delicious. The pizzas are just as tasty and varied. Malarte can be enjoyed at any time of day, all year round. Don't miss the Saturday morning aperitif in the heart of the market. Mythical!

It's one of Avignon's well-known little addresses on the hill overlooking the Palais des Papes, otherwise known as the Rocher des Doms, laid out as an English garden. The climb may seem arduous, but the reward is at hand when you arrive at the glass and metal pavilion bordering a pond, where you can sit down for a drink, an ice cream or lunch: salads, tartines and daily specials. The little tourist train makes it easy to get around if you need to.

It is a gourmet stopover but also a cultural one. This is how Nicolas Mazet wanted it, a house of Art and History, accessible to the widest possible audience, with contemporary art exhibitions.

We love the chic, urban style of the place, where you can enjoy fine wines accompanied by plates of charcuterie, cheese, salmon or homemade foie gras. La Suite is a cosy wine bar, where you can enjoy a quiet drink on the terrace, or have a party, because the place is as convivial as its owners. Numerous evening events are organized (announced on their Facebook page): live music concerts, sports broadcasts, themed evenings... It's a warm, relaxed place to spend an evening.
