LA CABANE DU PÊCHEUR
Read moreHere is a place not to be missed to spend an evening (or a day, the service is continuous) a few minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Cotonix! On the beach, on the covered terrace or on the one on the roof, this friendly "cabane" offers snacks, pizzas cooked in a wood oven, fish and seafood that go directly from the fishermen's nets to your plate. Pascal and Jean's welcome is always smiling and the atmosphere is family oriented, especially on Tuesday evening for the movie session or on Sunday noon for the barbecue. We love it!

POULET PIQUÉ
Read moreAway from the city center of Cotonou (about 20 minutes away) and from the beaten tracks of the tourists, Poulet Piqué is a local address as we like it! Here, you can sit in the large open-air room and enjoy spit-roasted chicken in the company of local thirty-somethings in a friendly atmosphere, whether it's in front of the big soccer games in the middle of the week or to the sound of bands that come to perform live on weekends, this is the guarantee of a good evening purely in Cotonou!
