The best cocktail bars Bourgogne

It comes from an expression used when one wants wine, and is also the name of the Paulée de Gevrey-Chambertin. In fact, the portraits of the 6 winegrowers' dogs, personified and dressed, are reassuring and even collectors' items! This Gevrey wine bar does everything right: industrial wood and steel decor, a selection of the most serious wines from the commune, the Côte de Nuits and elsewhere, as well as beers, gourmet platters and local produce. A wine bar created and run by Gibriaçois with a sense of celebration.

Located in the heart of the historic center, on the first floor of the superb Aubriot hotel, is a bar as beautiful as it is surprising. Monsieur Moutarde is an elegant bar that offers several rooms with different atmospheres. Depending on whether you are in a group, with the desire to mingle with the effervescence, or on the contrary, in a secluded space for a more intimate moment, or in the open air in the superb interior courtyard. We love the neat and contemporary decoration where beautiful furniture, armchairs and velvet benches are mixed. We love the cocktail menu made with fresh products and an undeniable know-how. Nice drinks with funny or exotic names depending on whether they are classic or cleverly created by highly trained mixologists. A delicious place to discover!

The "Shooter's" brings together crowds of students and young people every evening. Its concept is based on a simple and efficient idea, which finds its success in the living of the two nearby bars of Monge Street, the sale of shooters of all kinds. These small glasses filled with strong spirits mixed with each other or with various perfumes of syrups and spices are a huge success on Dijon. We drink it to put it, 10 glasses to the sometimes radical effect, all the colors, all the perfumes, there is necessarily the recipe that suits you. So you say, with such recipes, the blood alcohol is up as fast as the atmosphere heats up, you laugh, we talk, we shout sometimes, we don't get bored anyway. Finally, you can imagine that you can imagine and create your own shooter's who, if it is good, will return to the map, the opportunity to leave its mark in this bar which is becoming a Incontournablde night incontournablde. In short, in a nice setting you have to drink between friends one or two by listening to music; an address that animates Berbisey street and is recommended.

The place smells of festivity and conviviality. Rock, jazz and blues evenings, themed around a particular dish. Home-made pizzas and burgers.

One of the facets of Fauverney Lodge is the cocktail bar. Non-alcoholic cocktails are prepared with fresh fruit (pineapple, banana, orange, coconut, etc.) to tasty assemblages. One of its specialties, spicy white wine, has delighted us: Cinnamon, cardamome and paan liquor are marrying beautifully. The journey may continue: Mayuri, Janari, Spicy Hari or Siva d 'Azur, the essentials Mojito, Margarita, Daiquiri and Tequila Sunrise, who all delight amateurs. And why not a Whisky Sour (whisky, cane sugar syrup and lemon juice), delicious? It's kind of like the LUXXMY restaurant, only one evening will not be enough to elect his heart.
