Chez Georges🍷

🍻The bar is always vibrant with an atmosphere that looks like the old Parisian bars of the time with wooden tables and people drinking at the counter. 🍻🍷Beers are quite cheap & wine also. But be aware, some bottles of wine are quite expensive: the best if to ask before order. Most of them are natural or/and organic wine 🌬️

☕️The coffee is 1€ so is the hard-boiled egg 🥚 as in the good old days

🧀A cheese board is 8€
