The best bars and cafés Nantes

This is a Nantes institution that multiplies the animated coffee version, the place of discussion and exchange around photography, science and sometimes offers some good little concerts from behind the faggots in the aperitif trip. The old billiard room is made available to everyone as a meeting room, so it is enough to reserve it in advance. Dish from day to noon and wide range of wines. Note that the first floor is also an exhibition room. Low and second bar for a cosy atmosphere. The original chandeliers Coca-Cola pride the boss. In the beautiful days, the outdoor terrace is particularly pleasant since the new pedestrian facilities and its semi-buried trees…

This trendy Scribe bar is very frequented by Loft fans, because it is located next door! The atmosphere is rather trendy for this spacious bar, with large tables and benches to accommodate groups (especially young people). The terrace is pleasant because it is located south on a pedestrian street, which avoids the inconvenience of the échappement during its aperitif! Large TV screens broadcast the famous soccer matches. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Didier Pellet signs one of the concepts best suited to the banana hangar. A fair coffee, with numerous solidarity products, marked Max Havelaar, such as Malongo coffee, Oxfam beer, wines from Chile or France, fruit juices from the selected country. As what, no need to go far to help producers! At Altercafé, point of Coca-Cola, but the Breizh Cola. The decor is matched with the pallets you would like to have fallen from the cargo. The wall, corrugated plate of the best effect, and a spirit "roots" that does not neglect comfort, quite the opposite. We would like to eat a fresh juice in the middle of the docks… without losing the north: the wall is displayed the position: 47 ° 13 north, 1 ° 33 west. A fair grocery store offers good little things for the aperitif (tapas, chips, peanuts, cashew nuts) but also for the breakfast (tea, coffee, pasta). Scene open to musicians on Tuesday, impros, samba or slam on Wednesday, concerts or DJ from Thursday to Saturday (electro Saturday). And also many relaxation-debates or exhibition-sales.

Want to take a drink in a friendly place and without any manners? The Barablabla often runs on the sidewalk so it is appreciated by the young nantais. Situated in the heart of Bouffay, combining the charm of the old stones and narrow-mindedness that create some conviviality, this bar has made itself known by the concerts it offers, and its audience is faithful to him. The boss is not for nothing in this atmosphere!

Without a doubt, it's the place to go if you stroll around the Machines de l'Ile on a beautiful sunny day! A well-deserved break, enjoy an incredible 180-degree view of the Loire from the Nantilus bridge (a nod to our friend Jules Verne) while sipping a soft drink, a beer, wine or a cocktail. Do not resist the call of the benches languishing in the sun, because after travelling to the dreamlike land of the Machines, if you are lucky, you will continue your journey through time by admiring from your seat the magnificent three-masted Belem and the famous squadron escort Maillé-Brézé (which was part of the scenery of Christopher Nolan's film Dunkerque, please) which will have landed just in front. Ah, and the name of the bar? From the name of the artisanal beer brewed by the founders with love and a lot of humour. A friendly, festive and offbeat atmosphere is guaranteed in this afterwork bar where everyone meets. The activities are regular and it is the opportunity to meet people on deck by sharing some tapas or boards for the aperitif.

When the Black Cat is open, the mice dance in it! Nice tribute to the famous Parisian cabaret that this bar located near the Place du Commerce! Each month, the establishment announces a rich and diversified program: philo afternoons, live painting, mixes of all kinds, photo exhibitions, forums, rock, jazz or blues concerts, open slam stages, theatre, French song or evenings around an instrument (piano, cello) and the two chimneys in operation. There is something for everyone and the team is friendly. And as a scalded cat fears cold water, opt instead for a fruit juice, a Bouffay beer or a rum tatin, you won't be disappointed..

The information is confidential, clandestinity obligatory, but you will find the Prohibition Bar in a small paved street that leaves from la place Bouffay. You can not imagine, when you are in front of the facade, the beautiful space inside, since besides a comfortable ground floor, you can climb the steps and settle on the floors. The bottom is rather reserved for the dance and top, more cozy, more personal, animated discussions around a cocktail. On the menu, you will find all the classics that you like: beers (in pressure, bottle or jugs), softs and long drinks as well as long (and tempting...) offer cocktails and shots like this champagne Mojito, this flaming B52 or this Caïpiroska. And if a little hunger pins the stomach, you can order a nice plate aperitif. On the music and festival side, the "Prohib" (for the close friends) organizes DJ sets and makes you share funk, groove, hip-hop sounds. Numerous evenings punctuate the life of this establishment: concerts, retransmissions of matches... The program of the festivities is available on the Facebook page or the website of the establishment where you can also register to reserve a table or privatize places for a particular event.

Born from the desire to find in France the iced coffes and other very common smoothies in the United States, French coffee shop, is now a company largely located in France, since there are nearly fifty establishments spread throughout the territory. The conquest of the West began in Nantes where a first establishment opened in 2014. The location is ideal since it is on the place de la Bourse, pedestrian and very pleasant, that Olivier and Johann operates now in their French Coffee Shop (FSC for their friends). A large slate particularly provided offers a multitude of drinks, fresh or hot with variations around coffee, tea or chocolate, but also milkshakes and refreshing and very fruity smoothies. A cup, a straw, and let's go! The setting is pleasant with warm shades, the terrace, quiet, is very sunny. Very caring service… Ideal for a short break before a cinema or between two shopping sessions in the centre.

The Triolet has one of the best views of Nantes. Nestled at the beginning of Sainte-Anne, just look towards the Loire to understand. Inside, the stone walls highlight the authentic side of this bistro, where many concerts take place. At your disposal two rooms, one more pub, and the other more intimate with poufs and low tables. Dissemination of sports events, football, rugby or motorbike. The map offers Quebec beers, pure malt pressures and a multitude of shooters.

Not far from Trade Square, this small, cosy bistro with its red seat, wooden furniture, its zinc bar, its mosaics on the ground and its large tiles will seduce you to enjoy a small coffee or to find friends there. There are small prices for the choice of drinks, small dining in the afternoon with Slices sweets, large salads or salty pies and homemade desserts. In the evening, there are also apéritives planks accompanying a glass of wine from a local producer or Belgian beer at the pressure that can even be tasted on the terrace, before going to the inevitable cocktails and shooters such as the trinqueurs, speciality of the house with rum.

Rendez-vous des Night night, the Bananes Bananes, is an unforgettable event with original proposals that allow time for refreshment or meal, change decor and move away from downtown traffic. Thanks to the Australian Café, you can choose to leave the Northern Hemisphere to enjoy an atmosphere inspired by Aboriginal culture. Warm, the main hall on parquet hosts theme evenings, concerts, DJ sets, and in the day, the terrace with view of the Loire is full of attraction for who enjoys enjoying the sun up to the last radius. If needed, the Canberra, Melbourne, Marsupial and other Kangaroo cocktails allow a review of the geography and fauna of the island island without too much effort…

A good atmosphere in this typical Irish decor. The terrace is covered with old barrels, drums, bags of jute cafés, which we are looking for. Inside one would think in an old galion, decorated with rigging with its masts, sails and ropes… We drink beer and whiskies… Irish, of course! Taste the famous Beamish beer. Experience sports events on giant screens. The Dock Yard program is very complete and is not limited to Irish music concerts! Indeed, the house opens its stage to musicians of all kinds. The weekend is reserved for the benefits of the DJ that will give you the desire to dance until late in the night! You will find the program on their Facebook address!

In an atmosphere code, this sober and classic bar offers concerts, funk evenings (every last Saturday of the month), reggae evenings (every first Saturday of the month), electro evenings (every last Thursday of the month) and many others. The program is available on the Facebook account. The unavoidable Max and his team (Popeye, Ratatouille…) welcome you in the right mood! It is really nice to have a drink on the terrace in front of the Loire and Sainte-Anne.

This well known Nantais shop is a reference in the fields of pastry, ice cream, chocolate, roasting and also as a tea room. You can meet there for a good cup of coffee or tea, with delicious pastries. The success is now so well established that there are several Debotté shops in Nantes (tea room activity in the ones on rue Crébillon and rue de Budapest). You can find there high quality products; whether it is excellent chocolate rochers or macaroons that are no less, frangipani from another world, the Nantes cake where rum is not overused. In short, to try to list all the succulent products offered by this brand would be a challenge. The only thing that remains is that everyone will find something to their taste. Because here, whether it is pastries or sweets (caramel, négryllettes, berlingots...), everything is made with fine butter. It should be pointed out that anyone who would like to order a pièce montée would be at the right address. To conclude, let's not forget to mention that the exterior and interior of the shops are very well looked after and that the welcome is perfect. A house in which tradition is preserved with a quality artisanal production from father to son. Please note: at lunchtime, home-made hot dishes are served on rue Crébillon and rue de Budapest.

This night bar in the city centre is well known for the Nantais students and students. It has been recently renovated, but still hosts a lot of tone on Thursday, and the age of the regulars on Friday and Saturday turns around 18-25 years. Another club, the Etoile, was created on the floor for those over 25, more lounge and cosy! It is between the. street. You can also rent rooms for tone, birthday or other private evenings.

If the card remains fairly classic, the huge advantage of this bar lies in its 130-seat terrace located in the heart of Nantes, place du Bouffay. In the evening you can enjoy good wines, salami (pepper, serrano, wild boar…) or beer, including the amber from Bouffay in pressure. Managed by Alain, Christophe and Denis, Lulu has a warm and easy smile, and strong arguments to spend an evening in good company, just like its alter ego cinema of the Tonton flingueurs…

Bahia is new. It's a lovely Brazilian stopover in Nantes! In this warm and inviting coffee shop, tea room and lunchtime restaurant, you can enjoy coxinhas, Brazilian-style doughnuts, Portuguese-style cod acras or sweet and savoury tapiocas. Assortments to share? Julia, the manager and cook, has family in Bahia (northern Brazil). The drinks take us on a journey, like the 100% natural coconut water, Bahia or Bahiadeiro coffee, with the unmissable homemade brigadeiros, Valrhona cocoa chocolate truffles. Bahia also offers culinary workshops: chocolate-making, spreads and pastéis de nata! What's more, you can brunch here!

On the island of Nantes, a stone's throw from the Elephant, an exceptional pastry shop has opened where Sabrina, a naturopath by training, and her husband Grégory Lejeune, a pastry chef, work. They both decided to combine their respective passions around this daring and very successful project. This establishment also gives pride of place to creative, healthy and natural pastries. This alternative pastry shop favours the senses: sight, because "you eat first with your eyes", as Sabrina says, and taste, with flavours such as the pears poached in hibiscus juice in the Déli'biscus (sweet pastry, organic vanilla diplomat), the circle of spirulina on the organic vanilla and white chocolate cabbage. The creations, as pretty as they are tasty, are less sweet because they are made exclusively with natural sugars (for example coconut blossom sugar) with a low glycemic index (ideal for diabetics and gourmets who have to be careful), such as the matcha green tea macaroons, with no additives or artificial colourings, with certified organic French flours, as well as non-hybridized and gluten-free flours. The approach is delicate and healthy, ethical and responsible because it favours local and seasonal products. Délicatessaine is also a tea room where you can sit and drink tea or coffee. And you can also enjoy home-made chocolate bars. And as soon as possible, educational workshops will be offered to learn how to bake lighter. To be made: healthy and tasty snacks for children, or pastries for people suffering from allergens. We can't wait!

Canyon is the first flower café in Nantes. Created by Julia and Simon to delight the senses with dishes, pastries and flowers, the place offers a restaurant with an American touch, revisited with local and seasonal products. You can enjoy a grilled cheese, the club of the week, or a salad, then a homemade granola with vegetable coconut yogurt, or even a trio of sweet or savory pancakes. To be enjoyed with a colored milk like the amazing Raw cacao (fresh raw cacao paste), or a black latte with black sesame and charcoal. Canyon is also the place to offer you a country bouquet composed of pretty seasonal flowers. A pleasant and atypical place!

Guillaume and Sam welcome you to the Bar Bar for a moment of conviviality in the heart of Graslin district. Côté Déco offers a lounge atmosphere with red velvet chairs and stools and black furniture, wooden bar and mirrors. The attentive service to the guests and the warm atmosphere of the games make it a place where friends love to find themselves! In the evening, under soft lighting, we appreciate its beautiful cocktail card: Margarita, caramelinha, cahipirinha and many others, under a sound of groove, jazz or soul. Twice a month, DJ sets.

In September 2011, the Zigidi revived a youth: a new black and red plant, indicator panels hanging here and there showing destinations of the end of the world… On every First Thursday of the Month, you will be able to discover a wine from the world presented by a wine specialist, who will be able to wiggle during the girls'evenings and we will not forget the Wii evenings. The Zigidi is a partner of the Gaumont, so there will be some evenings to play. Not to be missed, the gourmands gourmands, every evening from 20 h to 22 h (taco and cold mix is offered).

Here the decoration is inspired by all the holiday sets you dream of: exoticism, sun, beach… a bar corner and a little more intimate room in the background, with a welcome to the image of the garden: warm! A large selection of cocktails, renowned for being delicious, with or without alcohol the fruit is king and the bar is shown permanently relaxed and in good mood!

With its two levels and its decoration where wood, steel, old stones blend, the Callaway has a picturesque charm that slides it into the abonnés of night addresses. It's a bar where all of you are revellers to the closing of other addresses, before you go dancing! Clearly most people who arrive here late have only one objective: get drunk in the right mood! For this there are two rooms available, and for groups you can come many: it's spacious! Nice detail: with your drinks we give you a little plate of candy! Sweet party!

For your relaxation a dj brings a musical atmosphere from Tuesday to Saturday. But the interest of the place are the famous after restaurants! Yes, when you come out of an exciting evening, you often have a little creux. Nothing like a little tour at La Bassamoise before going to bed! You can indulge in culinary delights with French-African specialities. The best way to avoid the headache of the next day? A good meal to fill all this!

The Macallan is a warm pub with wood, beams and exposed stones. There are numerous beers and draught beers, beer cocktails and many whiskies carefully selected by Mika, the master of the places. To accompany this tasting, six varieties of sausage are offered at low prices. Football and rugby games are available, but for the most active, don't miss the bowling tournament on Monday at a. m. As for those who contempt sport, concerts are also organised.

Hit with the Librairie bookshop, this high-attendance bar student, see a little high school, gives over the course of the 50-Hostages, the ancient course of the Erdre. The bar is composed of a ground floor (where stone and wood blend with boxes in the bottom), a mezzanine above and an amazing terrace when the summer points to its snout. Brasserie (salted, panini, midday dishes), amazing vodkas for advanced evenings: there are for all tastes. Only a few, even if you take a coffee, they don't give a glass of water, you pay your mineral! Not very nice with regard to the price of the black…

Open 7 days a week, and until late in the evening, this bar is well known for smokers because it is also a tobacco office. It is the rescue place that troubleshoots the lack of nicotine in the evening and avoids overtaxing of gold-priced cigarettes in the downtown boxes or bars. There is a large terrace and more intimate rooms on the floor. A traditional and chichi bar, a drink side, it shows higher prices than elsewhere by its location at the heart of the Place du Commerce.

In the summer, the large terrace, with no fewer than 150 seats, allows you to enjoy the entertainment of one of the most picturesque squares in Nantes. Inside, the room, divided into two parts, is not very large, just as it needs to be warm while leaving a little intimacy for those who have secrets to share. Temporary exhibitions are of good quality in the same spirit as the place: connected, without doing too much. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Small, quiet bar in the day with a pinball and a large terrace overlooking a pedestrian street. In the evening, this bar is a place frequented by house and electro music fans. Enjoy cocktails and other homemade macerated. The staff were friendly and helpful. There are two menus (Intermission I and II) or different à la carte dishes. Note, the cigar cellar and the Internet point of access. Mix and DJ nights regularly.

A stone's throw from the machine room, three others from the courthouse, the Point Bar is located in the heart of the island of Nantes, close to the banana hangar and the giant mechanical elephant. The band of pals who set it up well on this cosy bar restaurant and the smiling service, relaxed atmosphere! On the occasion of the 10 th anniversary of Prun's associative radio, the facade of the blockhouse overlooking the Blockhaus was completely reviewed by artists from sampled collectives. It is therefore with the colours of an original graffiti, on a very urban terrace, that you drink a drink. On time, the bar offers contemporary music programming! Côté has nothing to say, it's not too expensive and delicious!

Open all week, it's a busy bar. A nice atmosphere for this place usually frequented by young people aged 20-25. The music here is known to be strong enough, so sensitive tympans abstain. A good bar with an efficient staff and very nice! Not negligible, a ball to swim in the sun.

The NMC has a particular concept since it includes both a bar, a restaurant restaurant (on the same site) and a business organizer (Édouard-Normand Square). But the bar is of course open to everyone and, as surprising as it may appear, there is nothing left to suggest that a room is available to the groups in the room. The interior is warm, with its hyperconfortables benches and side-side side. The map explores all the terrain, offering both attractive smoothies and a set of original hot drinks. Coffee lovers should find their happiness: espresso, latte latte, macchiato latte, caffé mocha, monte, or our coup (coffee, Nutella, milk foam). The NMC is also menus for lunch (dish of the day, express or club formulas) or a large map.

As its name indicates, Mousse Café Laverie is a place where a laundry as well as a restaurant and tea room cohabit. Tiphaine welcomes us in this elegant space where the sound of the machines lulls us subtly. While your laundry is spinning, or for pure greed, you can choose to eat or drink. At lunch time, you will find the suggestions of the day on the slate. Pies, soups, bowls, toast or even pasta, all prepared in-house from fresh products. As for the sweet treats, they are available all day long. On the spot or to take away. The versatility of this place makes all its charm.

Adjacent to the Micro Comedy Club, the Micro Barrr is there to take care of our refreshments and supplies. Warm place, we appreciate the beautiful privatizable mezzanine and the summer terrace. On the menu, the choice of drinks is varied. Beers, wines, soft drinks but especially cocktails and mocktails at low prices. We like the associations of the Moolz (pineapple, apple, basil and ginger) or the Lendemain (orange, lime, sparkling water and sugar). To nibble and accompany everything, let yourself be tempted by the boards, the sausages or the delicious vegan terrine. Then, if you feel like it, you can even drink your drink at the Comedy Club for a good laugh! Bonus: thrift shop and exhibitions.

Two floors for this Saint-Léonard street bar which organizes photo exhibitions. Lunch can be served at noon: carpaccio, club sandwich, salt pie, salad or dessert.

Delicious brunches on the first Sunday of the month!

Do you like cosy, hushed and refined tea rooms? You will love La Passagère. Ideally located in the Passage Pommeraye, on the middle floor, it is a place like we like them: the atmosphere is relaxed and delicate. La Passagère is the result of the work of a couple of restaurateurs well known to Nantes gastronomes: Isabelle and Jean-Charles Baron-Lefebvre. They are already at the head of the Baron-Lefebvre house in the Cité des Congrès, the Pellières near the Zenith and the caterer on rue Cassini. All in all, four excellent and unmissable restaurants in the City of Dukes. At La Passagère, you can come and enjoy a hot chocolate or one of the many teas on the menu: smoked black tea, rooibos, red-black tea, white or green tea, whether it's called Midnight Demon, Blue Grass, Casanova or Dragon Well, you'll find the one that suits your palate. What you should not miss are the pastries. You will find them presented in a window like magnificent jewels among which you will have to choose: an excellent tiramisu tart, a no less famous Nantais cake, the delicious small pecan and cranberry cakes or why not the Orélys tart (sweetened shortcrust pastry and a praline base and an Orélys ganache)... The place can be privatized. A bubble of delicacy within an exceptional architecture.

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

How about a drink at La Chaumière? This place, a former hotel and roadside restaurant located next to the future hospital, has been reenchanted in April 2023 by Nicolas Bernadeau and Enzo Merand.
