Drinks & Nightlife
Our absolute favourite place for a "coupe de champagne" before dinner or after a long day shopping. This is a very iconic Monaco place, very expensive, old almost dusty interior but so cozy.
Staff are very polite and nice.
Live music in the evenings, during summer more often and in winter more during weekends.
Dressy place, jacket/suit is a must.
