There is a secure parking lot next to the lighthouse, but otherwise there is no real parking. If you park at the lighthouse, you will need to walk at least 20 minutes, some uphill, to arrive at the bar. The bar manager was 15 mins late, and rude when we went to check in with our reservation because we had a service animal with a valid doctor's note. He explained that it was clear on the website that no animals are allowed. We obliged because we had already paid for our reservation, and he was cutting the conversation off, saying, "I don't have the time to discuss anything further because I'm already late." Not my problem you are late to work. Also, I would like to point out that the man in charge of 'Perching Experience' had his dog running around. We were holding my small service animal, not knowing whose unleashed and non-collared dog it was, when the man rudely said, "What? Your dog can't walk?" While my partner went to take care of our dog I saw a duo who had been waiting since opening be turned away because the owner stated he could have max 10 people in the bar. In fact, we were only 7 people at the bar so there was space for them. Furthermore, the inside of the bar and the top view point of the bar were closed 'due to COVID', leaving only the outside balcony accessible. Having 1/3 of the bar closed, restrooms closed, one glass of champagne, and receiving no glass or offer of water, the price of 21 euro is absurd. With all these COVID measures, I found it funny that there was no hand sanitizer stations, and that the owner did not wear a mask. He stated he didn't need to wear one because we are outside, but at the same time he says no service animals and there is a dress code? After pouring everyone's glass, he left the bar and didn't return to check on anyone. We decided to stop wasting time at this bar, and left. The couple next to us had been sitting with empty glasses for 20 mins. We saw the owner when leaving and let him know that there were customers who might want another drink. He said, "yeah, yeah, I know. I was going to go." From one service industry folk to another, if you don't like customers, get a different job.

Nice view and so relaxing to sip champagne. Perfect place to hang around with your friends.read more

Amazing champagne tasting bar, with free snacks, knowledgable friendly staff and weekly changing…read moretasting menu. Loved their simple foie gras with champagne spread. Their smoked salmon was fresh and brightened with lemon. It was a wonderful experienced trying the food with different champagnes. We found that the salmon tasted better with the Demi-sec and the foie gras was perfect with brut champagne. I loved the blend of three grapes to make the Champagne Brut exclusiv't. I also loved the rich flavor of the Rose. Amazing. I had a wonderful time and so did all the people leaving the bar. Even the toddler with the drunk parents.

My server created a delicious plate of French cheese and charcuterie with a variety of items that I may not have selected for myself, and she also selected a perfect wine pairing. She explained each item on my plate, including the region of France from which each item originated and stories about the individual producers.

This place had the right look, and is one of the few places in Reims found on LeFooding. Wines by the glass are "blind", so you pick a color and get a wine. My companion and I each chose red, and were served a very small glass of wine. We were later told it was a Czech wine, but weren't able to actually look at the bottle, which kind of defeats the purpose of, I don't know, trying to find a wine or grape another time? Service is achingly slow, and awkward. Multiple people coming to drop off silverware, but I had to find my own menu. We wanted a simple apero, and ordered a cheese plate, which is described as having 5 cheeses. The smallest cheese plate I've ever seen - 17 euros - and served on a bread plate. I've seen pats of butter on toast bigger than these cheeses. It took almost 30 minutes for the cheese matchsticks to arrive. Since this made us very cranky we kept a close eye on the rest of the tables. Our neighbors ordered the same cheese plate, with what looked like a lot more cheese, but still ridiculously small. Not clear if this is a bobo place for tourists, and thus, they get you once and you won't ever come back. But either way, we won't be back. To quote my companion: "Reims c'est une cauchemar des années 90."
