The best pubs Champagne-Ardenne

The mandatory stopover for beer lovers of all kinds! The atmosphere is great in this friendly Irish pub but if this address has become a must, it is above all for its well-stocked beer menu. In all, more than 130 bottles and 18 draught beers: the essential Trappists of Belgium and the Netherlands, the local people of Champagne, the English amber, the smoked Germans, the Irish, Scottish or Canadian stouts and the Italian pale ale... Each pint of the fabulous hop drink makes you discover the typical notes of its terroir, a true journey through Europe with a short detour to America.

The atmosphere is always festive in this Champagne pub! We move away from the bustle of the Place d'Erlon to the calm of the Rue du Jard, a stone's throw from the cathedral. On the program, champagne of course, with about thirty references to be tasted, a beautiful wine list but also craft and local beers on draught, house cocktails and delicious tapas to be shared in conviviality. Planks of cold meats and mature cheeses, terrines, croques, all good things to nibble on. And throughout the year, the bar comes alive with thematic evenings: blind test, darts tournament, Beaujolais evening or fondue party!

It's English time at the chic Explorateur 1828 pub. With its pretty stained-glass windows and comfortable leather banquettes, you'd think you were back in Victorian London. You'll be delighted to sit down and sample the impressive beer list, which ranges from Belgian and Trappist classics to home-grown regional beers and amazing beer cocktails that go perfectly with welsh, homemade fish and chips or duck poutine. With spirits, champagnes, wines, house cocktails, sharing platters, burgers, salads and tartars, there's no shortage of options on the menu for enjoying a treat or a drink while watching the game!
