Great little restaurant and bar, perfect for a date or to meet friends for a drink in case someone…read moreis in the mood for a light bite or dessert. Drinks are reasonable (especially so for centré ville and place bouffay) and the food is fast, fresh, and inexpensive. Beers for about 5€, bottles of wine between 10€-15€, 'tartines' or basically pizza on slabs of toasted bread are between 4€-7€. I stumbled across this little gem after having lived in Nantes more than six months, and I've been kicking myself for not having found it earlier.

The taps are clean and everything is very well-poured. The bar itself is also a very pleasant space, with a large indoor/outdoor area that opens onto the street at the front (smoking permitted), and an airy, high-ceiling interior, more reminiscent of a German beer-hall than a brasserie. Great bottles and interesting glassware in cases are the primary decorations. The crowd is a mix of regulars, locals, young people, with a smattering of tourists (though most are across the canal). Service is friendly and helpful. It's also quite spacious, with plenty of tables and seats, so would be good to bring a group of friends. The prices are excellent--3.50 Euros for a delicious glass of Belgian draft can't be beat!
