The one on the main square just opposite Macdonalds.
If you get there early enough the beer is still coldish. The Brethren normally fill a corner. If its sunny there are umbrellas.

All around this square (3place de la Republique") you've got several refreshing places with umbrellas. |

This may not count, but, if you fancy a drive out and would like to sit beside a river and have a bottle of the local fizz try here. http://www.logis-de-france.fr/uk/recherch/index-ca.htm |

we've found a relatively good bar on the parade route which we occupy on the friday. its just down from the main square, on a cross roads, where the parade route goes under a bridge. its nothing special but they set up a beer table outside so you dont have to go very far to get a beer!

We're civilized this side of the Channel. In every bar you have table service. It's only in so-called pubs that you've "service a l'anglaise". Maybe it could be a good solution in UK to adopt table service to resolve female unemployment  |

yeah but generally it gets so busy that table service becomes almost impossible.
and anyway, with table service it just means that the waitress only has to go a short distance to the outside bar, rather than the much larger distance to the inside bar!

Nobby, if you are referring to the "female unemployment" remark - I have chosen to ignore it, making allowances for Gilles being not a native english speaker and possibly having got confused with his translation.  And also - I am fully employed thanks very much - you can all get yer own beer! F P.S. I like the idea that "english service" is no service at all!  |
