Lieu de détente très convivial et accueillant. Le service est à la hauteur des attentes. Endroit très très très discret fréquenté par les fins connaisseurs. Lieu très respectable où l'on peut se détendre autour d'un verre ou d'une bouteille selon son vouloir en savourant un bon menu fait maison les soirs de de grands matchs européens ou mondiaux. La chaleur de l'accueil frise la familiarité ce qui donne à l'endroit un esprit de club d'amis.
