DELI'
Read moreOur favorite. Le Deli' is the perfect place to take a break before climbing the Botanical Gardens. Tucked away in a tree-lined alleyway, this salad bar - as it calls itself - offers hot and cold drinks, a glass of wine or a mug of beer, all sheltered from the sun. For gourmets, salads, pizzas, cheese and charcuterie platters, sandwiches, breakfast, desserts and regional specialties such as pissaladière or pan bagnat. The oils and vinegars used are available for retail sale. The welcome is charming and the prices very reasonable.
LA FRÉQUENCE
Read moreHalfway between the Palais Longchamp and the Réformés, a new bar has been opened to liven up the pleasant boulevard Longchamp. A beautiful, wide terrace for a new establishment opened by a young team eager to offer a place where having a drink rhymes with conviviality between friends and tasting aperitif platters on the go. It's a great concept and a real hit with a young clientele who have become fans of the restaurant's excellent cocktails. At lunchtime, we serve a burrata, a sandwich of the day and a few simple suggestions on the slate. A friendly, smiling welcome, a fine wine list and live music at weekends.
LA BOCA FORCALQUIER
Read moreMathias and Clémentine offer you a unique address in Forcalquier, which is different from the rest of the town! A unique place to party, to dance, with a consistent musical program. La Boca also offers themed evenings on Fridays and groups in summer. It's also a warm place to have a good time with games, tapas, vegan appetizers, cheese, cold cuts and mixed drinks, accompanied by delicious cocktails, wines or good local beers. A nice place to share with your family.
LE PATIO
Read moreA unique and charming atmosphere: that's Le Patio! An address where every decorative detail, inside and out, is meticulously taken care of, and where the warm, efficient welcome of the waitresses immediately puts you at ease. On the menu: delicious tapas accompanied by original cocktails. And with a well-stocked wine list, the evening is bound to be a success. The friendly, intimate atmosphere is so appealing that you'll find it hard to resist coming back. But be warned, the popularity of the place often means you'll need to reserve a table.
LA CANNE BAMBOU
Read moreIn the tranquil Niolon cove, where only a handful of quality restaurants disturb the calm of the narrow streets, La Canne Bambou is the place to be for locals and holidaymakers alike, who want to enjoy an evening of tapas and live music. A new tapas bar with a charming roof terrace and a few tables on the chapel square. Marinated octopus, croquetas, chicken egg rolls, raw ham melon and salmon tartare are the perfect accompaniment to your cocktail or glass of wine. A pleasant place full of good vibes!
FLASHBACK CAFÉ
Read moreDid you grow up in the '90s and are eternally nostalgic for that era? Then this brand-new bar, opening in September 2023, is for you. With a guaranteed fluorescent atmosphere and themed decor featuring posters, goodies and retro video games, you're in for a real childhood experience, and we have to say it's a real success. Totally unique in the region and unheard of in France, the famous living room from the American series The Simpsons has been recreated. There's a great atmosphere at the bar, with sports broadcasts and a fine selection of tapas in the evening. You won't soon be able to do without it.
LA PINÈDE
Read moreArthur and Charlotte want to share their love of the South: they recently opened a beautiful bistro next to the Cours Mirabeau, with a welcoming and generous bar featuring the colors of Provence. In the evening, it's aperitif time in a cosy, friendly atmosphere. Aperitif platter, croque-monsieur or veggie platter. The wine list is extensive, and there's a wide choice of cocktails: from Mamette, a start-up from Aix-en-Provence that you'll find in the guide, to Jardin d'été (gin, cider, orange blossom and lemon) and Melon Martini (vodka and melon juice), everything is fresh and often homemade. It's a wonderful, fresh discovery! Let's run there!
LA CASA DES JUMELLES
Read moreNathalie and Florence are the ambassadors of Catalan cuisine in Aix-en-Provence. These twin sisters, one from Paris, the other from her lawyer's practice, have created this convivial place that is both a tapas bar and a showcase for decorative objects. Originally from Collioure, they brought back the famous anchovies that you can enjoy with pan con tomate, grilled piquillos marinated in olive oil, calamari, Iberian cheeses and hams, and tortillas. Dishes to share, cooked according to their grandmother Odette's recipes. In the glass, sangria or typical wines.
