The best bars and cafés Beaujolais

You'll want to curl up on the sofas in this tastefully decorated tearoom in downtown Mâcon. You'll enjoy coffee, chocolate, tea and a number of highly original drinks, such as an iced apple-cucumber timut infusion and a mandarin-grapefruit maté. All served in charming cups. As an afternoon snack, you can indulge in home-made pastries, while a savoury menu is available for lunch. In fine weather, the large terrace at the foot of Saint-Pierre church almost makes you lose track of time.

Treat yourself to a panoramic view of the city from the 360 Panorama Skybar. Day or night, the view is breathtaking, and invites you to linger over the city's rooftops. Two terraces welcome you, and in winter, it's with a lovely plaid and under the outdoor heaters that you can enjoy your meal, or in the "room", actually made up of a magnificent glass dome so as not to lose any of the view. Excellent cocktails and a fine wine list from the region can be enjoyed over a snack board. Savor the moment, it's unique.

Dressed all in wood, this pretty room invites you to comfort yourself with a hot drink. Tea time is the busiest time of the year. Customers mingle in a room that's never empty. The drinks menu offers hot chocolate, black, white and green teas, as well as freshly-squeezed fruit. On the solid side, the choice is between homemade crepes and waffles, and for a lunch break there's pasta, savoury galettes, mixed salads and croque-monsieur. We love the smiling welcome and the terrace overlooking the Saône.

Le 88, located on Place aux Herbes, is the city's hottest spot. Momo's good humor is contagious. He always has the right words and ideas to make the place as convivial as possible. A modern dining room, a young clientele, a very large terrace. On tables or barrels, you can enjoy hearty tapas such as camembert persillé or a foie gras plank, followed by pizza, a burger or a generous salmon tartare. The evenings are often enlivened by live music.

Come to Le Voltaire for a relaxing break over a coffee, a creative cocktail, a draught beer or simply a glass of good Mâconnais or Côte Chalonnaise wine, accompanied by a tasty appetizer board. While the days at Le Voltaire are spent to the quiet rhythm of the sounds of the moment, the afterworks and evenings are more festive. On sunny days, the terrace is also a popular spot. And for special occasions, Le Voltaire offers its 200 m² for privatization.

As in Beaune and Chablis, a visit to the Cité des Climats et Vins de Bourgogne can't end without a tasting at the fully-glazed Bar des Découvertes, overlooking the Saône. Treat yourself to one of the selected vintages: wines by the glass, by the bottle, from the Mâconnais to the Chablisien, via the Côtes de Beaune, Nuits and Chalonnaise! Quality snacks, charcuterie/cheese boards and regional jars, themed after-works...

Du vestiaire à la cave is a hybrid place where everyone can find something to their liking. We come here to have a drink with friends or a hot beverage. The wide selection means you can drop in at any time of day. We also take the opportunity to take a look around the store: ready-to-wear for the whole family, accessories, top brands... While some people are browsing in the booth or shopping for gifts, others are lounging on the terrace. Whatever the purpose of your visit, you'll have a great time surrounded by a young, smiling team.
