    Went in to get some beers with friends and needed to use the bathroom first. One of the employees told me I had to buy a drink before I could use the bathroom or he would kick me out. I told him I had to use the bathroom then I’d buy drinks. He came back to kick me out with his henchman and walked past me (thinking I was in the bathroom) and ripped open the door on one of my female friends. Then yelled at all of us to get out. Horrible place with the rudest most inappropriate staff in France

    (Translated by Google) Very warm welcome from Roger the boss and Roger the cook / barman without forgetting the adorable MameSeye and Amandine whom I discovered, also very smiling. The spritz are € 5 until 2 a.m. and after € 8.50 until 5 a.m. (Original) Très bon accueil de la part de Roger le patron et Roger le cuisinier/barman sans oubliet l’adorable MameSeye et Amandine que je découvre, très souriante également.

    One of the very few food places open in the wee hours of the morning. Great place to stopover after partying elsewhere. Comfort burgers are comforting. The onion rings were subpar. But, the service was good, they had specific waiters who spoke specific languages. Everyone else still tries to attend to you anyway.

    (Translated by Google) Very welcoming bar where we were able to taste excellent Spritz. The whole team is smiling and they take care of the customers very well. Best of all, we didn't have burgers but they looked great at the tables next door. Kisses to Mameseye. Éric (Manu, Quentin, Éric team) (Original) Bar très accueillant où nous avons pu déguster d’excellents Spritz. Toute l’équipe est souriante et elle s’occupe très bien des clients. À conseiller, nous n’avons pas consommer des hamburgers mais ils paraissaient excellents sur les tables d’à côté. Bisous à Mameseye. Éric ( équipe Manu, Quentin, Éric)

    Eventhough I like this bar, many things aren't right... They won't let me in, EVEN if I am with friends (girls, kinda mandatory to enter in clubs or selective bars). I've been there 3-4 times without any problems expect this night. Very disappointed.... I'm absolutely not drunk, they just decided tonight I won't go. That's just not how to do publicity! Better have luck if you go there, more chances if the bar is empty!

    Quick service and they always have 1 new hamburger option almost every week. Fries are very good, very crunchy and tasty, and hamburgers are well cooked and delicious! We enjoyed it a lot and you end up full for a decent amount of money.

    Honestly worst bar I've ever been to. First time ever being kicked out of a bar and it was for asking for a glass of water. Honestly can't stress how insane it is that they will refuse you a glass of tap water in the middle of a heatwave.(Despite what the owner says I don't consider a single shot glass of water to be "3 glasses" and I also consider providing water to someone In need to be the most basic of human decency).

    Excellent atmosphere, super attentive staff. Homemade hamburgers. The restaurant is open until 4:00 and the bar until 5:00. I can only thank you for the hospitality.

  • 1/5 Jessica B. 1 year ago on Google
    My husband and I attended this establishment during our recent honeymoon to Nice. We were very unhappy with our experience unfortunately. First of all, we waited a long time before being greeted by staff when we walked in. Secondly, we waited about 15 minutes to be greeted once we found a table. We decided to order right away since we noticed how slow the service was. Thirdly, we received our food with no cutlery or napkins. We had to wait another 5 minutes before we could get the attention of a staff member. Finally, our food tasted like it had been microwaved. I ordered the fish and chips burger and my husband ordered the chicken Caesar. My fish was tasteless and my husband felt that his lettuce was old and rotten. We were so unhappy with our meals and nobody checked in to see how everything was tasting. We eventually paid our bill and left our relatively untouched meals on the table. We were really hopeful for a good experience but unfortunately this was not a highlight of our honeymoon.

    (Translated by Google) Maybe I came the wrong night ... The reception was horrible, cold. It set the tone for the evening. My burger had an indeterminate taste, barely edible, when the smell does not speak. We were dispatched by throwing the bill on the table, without a word, by removing our plates without asking if we were finished ... Needless to say, I will not come back. (Original) Peut-être suis-je venue le mauvais soir... L'accueil fut horrible, froid. Ça a donné le ton à la soirée. Mon burger avait un goût indéterminé, à peine mangeable, quand à l'odeur n'en parlons pas. On nous a expédié en nous jetant l'addition sur la table, sans le moindre mot, en nous enlevant nos assiettes sans demander si on avait fini... Inutile de dire que je ne reviendrai pas.

    I arrived with 2 friends. We ordered 1 pint of beer, cajun chicken and cheesy chips... I then ordered spicy chips. My friends had to leave and paid the first part of the bill. When I had to pay the rest €7, there was a big drama as the minimum I could pay by card was €10. I asked them on more than one occasion where it specified this, but they could not show me, just argued with me. I only had €6 in cash and I refused to pay €10. Even after a member of security accompanied me to the cash machine to get the money, there was still a drama. The waiter was very aggressive on more than one occasion and I told him if there was a problem, to call the police. I said the same to security. They did not call the police. In the end I paid my bill with a €20 note from the cash machine. Customer service doesn't exist anymore in this place unfortunately. And I had been a regular for over 10 years... Not anymore. Last time I will visit

    My friend was treated like a criminal for using the bathroom here before buying a drink, despite being a regular customer, not anymore… Staff were aggressive and unfriendly. To be avoided unfortunately. There are lots of other pubs and bars with friendly service in the old town.

    I've been there for a karaoke party the last week-end, there was not a lot of people but the DJ was in at 100%. He knows out to make a karaoke show enjoyable. It will become one of my favorite place to sing in Nice. The barmen were very friendly. The only issue was the microphone not working properly sometimes. But I loved my experience and recommand it to people !

  • 5/5 Yazan H. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice bar, and excellent service! Had a great experience last night. Edit: I came again and loved it even more, you guys definitely deserve 5 stars, and 6 if I could.

    In terms of hygiene, go with your eyes closed but try the french fries with cheddar sauce (4€).

  • 3/5 Tejaswini P. 1 year ago on Google
    If you are hungry after 11 in Nice then this is the place to go. They have happy hours until 12am on food and drinks. Drinks were good but food was okay. But atleast you get food after 11 because most of the other kitchen restos in Nice closeby 11.

  • 1/5 Flor L. 1 year ago on Google
    The tall-skinny-dark haired waiter is agressive & mysoginist, he made a mistake on purpose and blamed us for it, screaming "don't come here to practise your French with me" only cause he heard we spoke another language with each other. Overcharged us and refused to explain why, getting extra agressive when we asked. When asked why he got rude with us since the begining of the night he replied "I am rude with everyone". He clearly needs a mental health check ASAP.

  • 1/5 Marcus G. 10 months ago on Google
    Extremely rude, avoid this place at any cost. We wanted to watch the CL final but they just ignore us even if they had available tables.. go to another bar if you can!

  • 1/5 Fernando R. 10 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Tavi 9 months ago on Google
    Amazing place and super good prices, they have Happy Hour until 00:00 which is insane. And the drinks are very good quality, 5 euros for Aperol Spritz or Stella Artois pint.

  • 4/5 Estefanía M. 5 years ago on Google
    If you are looking for a place to have quality burgers and want to have a big portion, this is the best spot for you! Their burgers and tapas are so yummy and they also have a special burger of the day. Restaurant during the day and bar/club during the night. Is one of the clubs in Nice that stays open until 4 - 5am at night.... so it is very convenient for those who want to enjoy a long party out night!

The service was friendly and the price was absolutely okay for the location. (Original) Hier kann man auch noch spät abends einen leckeren Burger oder Salat essen.

  • 2/5 German C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I put only two stars for the disappointment that I have taken these last two times that I went to the restaurant. I've been coming here since 2016, for me it was one of the best quality-price food restaurants in Nice. The problem is that for some time the quality of the food has changed and I imagine that the cook has too. Potatoes come out mushy from the kitchen. Overcooked burgers, even burnt parts of the bread. In short, a global loss of quality. I would like this bar to return to the quality of times gone by. (Original) Pongo solo dos estrellas por le decepción que me he llevado estas dos últimas dos veces que fui al restaurante . Llevo viniendo desde el 2016 aquí , para mí era uno de los mejores restaurantes de comida calidad precio en Niza . El problema es que desde hace un tiempo la calidad de la comida ha cambiado y imagino que el cocinero también . Las patatas salen blandas de la cocina. Las hamburguesas demasiado cocinadas , incluso partes del pan quemadas . En definitiva una perdida global de calidad . Me gustaría que este bar retomará la calidad de tiempos atrás .
