In Aigues-Mortes
Papy Moïse
04 11 83 42 04

For the atmosphere, the seafood cuisine (with a special mention for the knives). And the charm of the town.
For an aperitif in the area, here are a few ideas for nice wine bars
Au Bon Jaja (Sauve)
Wine bar, tapas and aperitifs in a tree-lined village square.
For a summer aperitif. Very good choice of wines.
La Floriane (Sauve)
Bar, pub, ice cream parlour and summer concerts in the heart of a village.
For the village atmosphere.
Le Garage des Cévennes (Anduze)
For its cool atmosphere and proximity. A word of advice: get in and go to the very back, to the courtyard-garden. It's the most pleasant place.
