This is your heart-warming, weekly escape par excellence. All the locals know this bar, making it one of the more crowded locations in Batignolles. For this reason, we do recommend you go early because around apéro time(happy hour), it can be difficult to find a seat. Their wine and planches mixtes are most notable. Both are plentiful and delicious.
