A festive brasserie on rue Fouré where lunch is for eating, evenings are for drinks, and Fridays are for dancing between the tables. The kind of place that does not try to be cool and ends up being exactly that.

A former oil mill on the Loire riverbank turned craft brewery. Beers change with each batch, the terrace faces the river, and the interior holds up even when Nantes is being Nantes.

Open-air guinguette by île Forget. Homemade galettes, drinks in the sun, and a lively lineup of concerts, DJ sets, blind tests and stand-up: the festive spot as soon as the weather warms up in Nantes.
