The best bars and cafés Nantes

How about a good beer? A local beer, with plenty of choice! With friends, colleagues and company! What if this bar was mobile? A bar that travels to your place, to your event, party or wedding? The perfect idea is to hire the BièreT Nantes! In other words, a food truck, but here to keep the beer flowing, where you'll find several beakers with kegs carefully selected by Lise, the (smiling) manager of this mobile bar. A great idea! A number of companies, as well as brides and grooms, are already using her services. Towns and villages (where there aren't many bars) can hire this great truck. It's a great way of creating a social link and taking part in village festivities, but it's not the only one! Two options are available: you can rent the Bière Truck Nantes with Lise's service! She becomes the owner, much to our delight! Or rent the truck with kegs and serve yourself. Lise is there to help us choose our beers and soft drinks. She has many partnerships with the best brewers and microbreweries in Nantes! Here's to hops on the move!

Want to impress family and friends with 0-degree-alcohol drinks? At the foot of the Grue Jaune, follow Jérôme's advice. With 350 beverage references, he knows everything there is to know about alcohol-free rosés revealing all the richness and elegance of a traditional wine, as well as sparkling wines, beers and softs. To help you understand all there is to know about alcohol-free wine, he organizes workshops to help you discover the diversity of his range. Whether you want to reduce your alcohol consumption, change your habits, or just don't feel like it, you'll find quality alternative beverages. There's also an artisanal grocery (terrines) to complete the aperitif. Top-notch welcome.

Here, near the Grue Jaune, on the green line of the Voyage à Nantes, we taste all kinds of ciders. From the good old Norman cider, to the Polish, Swedish, Latvian or Catalan ciders, there is something for every taste and every country. The city of Nantes has few cider cellars. Sidras has about sixty references, proposed in bottles and plays on cocktails. You can also taste local beer, from the Nautile and AERoFAB breweries, or even Muscadet from the Loire. The spreads, provided, are at small prices. The cellar also honors calvados and plans to combine this brandy with today's pleasures. Meals on the spot. Take-away sales. Theme evenings.

Inspired by her years spent in London, Claire wanted to create a friendly, lively space in the Delorme district, where the motto "Manger, Siroter, Créer" is possible at any time of day. In addition to the restaurant, the Clapton Café is a coffee shop where you can take part in one of the workshops the space organizes on Saturdays: embroidery, sewing, linocut... In a cosy, friendly atmosphere, you can enjoy this interlude, accompanied by a drink and/or a sweet treat from the house. For the more studious, it's possible to sit down and work in the café. Any excuse is good enough to push open the door of the Clapton!

Poum Poum T'chak! Just by reading the name, you can already hear the drums, ready to warm your heart in these troubled times. Aurélien Collin, the manager, took advantage of the confinements to renovate his bar, and thus push his project even further: that of offering a privileged place to let musicians and comedians express themselves in complete freedom. He offers an eclectic selection: jazz one Tuesday a month, funk, gypsy, rock and classical music jams one Sunday a month, rock and metal concerts - no one is left out! Enjoy a good sound and a good drink, and off you go for an excellent evening you'll remember for a long time to come!

It was a PMU bar for many years, it is now a "cellar, beverage bar and living space". Antoine and Manon have taken over the reins of this emblematic establishment and redesigned the place to make it a cellar and bar. Beautiful references proposed, essentially biodynamic wines and craft beers. If you have a hard time deciding, you can trust Antoine's wise advice! To relax, have a drink and an aperitif, the bar has three spaces, including a small courtyard with a glass roof. The atmosphere is warm and pleasant, you feel good there. Wine you to drink: the invitation is clear, and we run there!

Located next to the Musée Dobrée and just 2 steps from Place Graslin, Handy (Have A Nice Day) is a lively place run by Guillaume, who opened this multi-faceted restaurant. From morning breakfasts to hearty lunches, brunch specialties and a gourmet tea room, there's no shortage of ways to indulge! One of the restaurant's special features is that (hearty) brunches can be enjoyed throughout the week, as well as at weekends. With "classic" formulas like the "Handy" formula, with a choice of a hot or cold drink and a choice of cooked eggs: scrambled, poached, fried or the chef's famous eggs Benedict, but also smoked bacon, sausages and vegetables and potatoes of the moment. You can also indulge in an eggs-only option, served with toast and salad. Pancake lovers also come to try the inevitable Sweet Stack: 3 pancakes with whipped cream and maple syrup, or the Savoury Stack with crispy bacon, 2 fried eggs on pancakes. On weekday lunchtimes, a "lunch with love" menu is added, with a choice of 1 starter, 3 main courses including the famous Handy P burger, and 2 desserts, depending on the chef's inspiration: beautiful presentation, fresh produce, inventiveness: everything you need for a Nice Day! The lunch menu changes every 2 weeks, and there's always a vegan dish! It's worth noting that at Handy's you can have brunch even "late" (10am-4pm). Last but not least, you'll love the sweet treats on offer: Guillaume's French toast, homemade pastries and Greek yoghurt with nuts, honey or homemade granola! A great address!
