Lovely and affordable bar with cosy continental atmosphere. Lots of wines , but also beer on tap. We were served by the most friendly bartender, John.

Beautiful place, great atmosphere. Interior design is lovely: old-style European cafe style. Staff is very nice, and spoke/understood English well. Strong local presence, many lively conversations. They didn't have food available while I was there (possibly because of the time of day?) but said I was welcome to buy something from the bakery next door and eat it there.
