One of my favorites. An excellent French wine and beer spot with a warm atmosphere and easy going service. Reasonably priced. Try their cheese or meat platters too - they go very well with your drink!

Fab lunch/brunch/coffee maison along the waterfront! An old house newly renovated, where you can brunch or enjoy a cuppa in the livingroom, but the most fun spot is their bathtub. Nice views too.

Right next door, you find an artisan/traditional chocolate store where they prepare all tasty goods inside themselves. Step in, smell the cacao, and try some of their chocolates. All good!
