The welcome is very warm, the menu varied and healthy, we love it.

In front of Cannes train station, in a pedestrian street, this brasserie restaurant with a cosy décor dedicated to the world of music (guitars, photos of groups and singers in the walls…) offers a full and varied brasserie. Côté déco, the color touch is given by the red benches stretching along the wall in front of square tables and chairs.

California is a very pleasant brewery run by David (the Chef) and his wife Magalie (in the dining room). Both are from Haute-Savoie where they were caterers. The atmosphere is friendly, everyone knows each other and it is not uncommon for customers to come and get bread or salt. It's a bit like home and that's what we like. Try the many dishes of the day, or salads, homemade lasagna, homemade bread, hamburger, homemade quiche, homemade duck foie gras, homemade cassoulet, veal blanquette, beef bourguignon, homemade couscous, lemon pie, tarte tatin, gourmet coffee... And the fresh fruit smoothies. It's nice, cheap and good!

Meats, wines and cheeses are a good place to stay in a setting where barrels, bottles, paintings of artists, olive trees and hanged ham inspire good and convivial. Nestled between the beautiful walls with apparent stone stones on the bistro tables and tables, we are conquered by the atmosphere of the atmosphere, by the French-Italian cuisine, tasting of 8 cheeses, apple, nuts, grapes, honey, honey, grapes, honey, honey, Provençal and green olive and green olives (slow cooking), Risotto Safrané to the Saint-Jacques and Citrus, modern tiramisu (espresso minute on biscuit, ice cream, chocolate chips and tiramisu in siphon) and by the beautiful map of French and transalpine wines, of which some fifteen wines are offered by the glass.

An original concept based on figure 13 and its opposite 31. Here, all the products are fresh and are worked in two different ways,  a simple,  quick and classical service at midday "13" and one second more gourmet and refined in the evening "31". In this restaurant and bar lounge with an industrial déco inspired by New York, you'll enjoy the dishes comfortably seated on the banquette while the cocktails can be drunk directly at the bar. Assured conviviality!

Modern décor, grey, parquet, with a technicolor bar. DJ's is a bright and jazzy musical atmosphere. The kitchen is rather traditional (excellent meat and good selection of flavours of the sea) with some Italian points. For the late meal, we suggest the large salads in the main flat. Note a well prepared wine list. A nice place to take an aperitif outside during the summer.

Here an accessible corner of paradise in season by boat from Cannes. The magic becomes all its extensive when one sits at table to lunch or dine the feet in sand, in the shade of the arbour in rush fences or under the umbrella pines. The cuisine simple and goûteuse Southerner pays in particular homage to the seafoods: bouillabaisse house, crayfishes and shellfish of the fish pond. The digestive breaks are prolonged on the chair-deckchairs of the solarium, in the relaxation area or on the petanque field posed at the edge of water, and at the time of dining, the enlightened places are done more romantic...

A modern and bright storefront will catch your eye. The elegant decoration is made up of white furniture with design lines with a stone wall that adds authenticity. The carte, rather sophisticated, offers fusion cuisine with inspiration from here and elsewhere: beef tataki, Thai tuna tartare, mango and cajou nuts, socca with leaks and cream of Saint-Marcellin, prawn wok and Chinese noodles. The restaurant also has a mezzanine where you can take the aperitif or coffee while sitting on comfortable sofas while admiring the works that are temporarily displayed there. The warm welcome of the boss sublimates the whole. A beautiful discovery!
