A friendly, neighborhood wine bar! We sat outside before it got too crowded. The owner was so…read morefriendly. He pulled up a chair and explained the different wines to us. It was a pre-dinner glass or a few, so we decided to get a little snack. We had the burrata with tomatoes, and it was fresh and fantastic with plenty of basil. The pricing wasn't too expensive either. Overall a really great wine bar I'd highly recommend!

I would give this place 1,000,000 stars if I could…read more Of my 5-month studying abroad stint in Bordeaux, the Cock and Bull is arguably what I miss the most, and I definitely spent more time here than I ever spent in class. You will find no better pub in the city for expat Anglophiles, especially if you happen to be a student from the University of California studying abroad in France. If you fall into this category, let the bartender know...trust me, you will be hooked up. For everyone else, the Cock and Bull is a really lively pub managed by an Englishmen and staffed by French, American, and English bartenders who are all fluent in English and French. They have a full bar and a small but solid selections of beers on tap (Kilkenny, how I miss thee). It can get pretty crowded on Thursdays and Saturdays until the place closes at 2 AM. The drinks are strong and the crowd is a young mix of French and foreign college students. The onion rings and potato wedges are bomb. BEST PART: plastic cups are kept at the door, so if you're heading out you can take your beer TO GO. God I love Europe. Quiz night is a ton of fun on Monday nights, and gets very very crowded, so make sure to get here early for seats. The questions are read out in English and French and there's a chugging contest in the event of a tie. Can't beat that. On nights of a big football game, there's a giant pull-down screen that broadcasts the matches (they also let us watch the inauguration of Barack Obama here. It's appropriate to celebrate the first African-American president with shots of vodka...right?). Beer is about 7 euro, 4 euro during happy hour. Mixed drinks run from 8-10 if I remember correctly. The place is also really easy to get to - literally a hop, skip, and a jump from the Musée d'Aquitaine tram stop on Line B and a 1 minute walk from Pey-Berland/Hotel de Ville. What makes this place though, is the staff. Mickey, who runs the joint, is sometimes belligerent, always hilarious, very generous with the complimentary shots, and the sweetest guy ever. The bartenders are some of the friendliest you'll ever meet, too. So if you find yourself looking for a chill place to get your drink on in Bordeaux, head to C&B, have a whiskey-coca, toast to santé, and enjoy your night in one of France's most beautiful cities.

To be honest, the breakfast wasn't amazing. I got the formulae Salee with the eggs and bacon,…read morejuice and coffee, and the basket of bread, of course. My wife did not - she just got a couple of a la carte items, and we both got a croissant. I'm going with 5 stars for a couple of reasons. One, coffee was excellent. My cappuccino was delicious, but every one of them was during this trip. Second, it's hard to find an american breakfast - it just isn't their thing. Third, the eggs and bacon were very good (but it was just scrambled eggs and bacon). Fourth, the croissant was delicious. Maybe I'm just so happy to have gotten a regular breakfast. The shop is very nice and seems like a great place to work if you need to. Its spacious and the staff was very friendly. I'd make it a stop on your trip if you plan on having breakfast that isn't just a baguette.

Great place for breakfast/ lunch. I stopped by for a lunch…read moreon a weekday and I waited about five minutes to find a table. Salad lunch combo (formule) was excellent. Salad was seasoned with base of balsamic vinegar and basil pesto on top. In this very meat-heavy country, I was glad to find something I could eat (and enjoy). They were so busy each step of service took a little longer than I'd have liked. But at least they were all very friendly and helpful.

(I can never remember exactly when) which is damn Crafty. The Crafting is pretty sharp otherwise, but after you've see the prices at Jaqen a few blocks up - enough to freeze the vats of Craft in your veins! - you'll think different. So they they normally only have 4-6 Craft taps and a lot of Belgian brew, but I don't know, I just dig the place. Just ask for the bottle list, I once had a Swedish Craft from Hilma brewed with actual French fries! Tasted like a 4am McDonalds in a bottle. The Craftenders are righteous. You'll need to buff up your glass of Craft French though. Mutant Disco II from Põhjala in Estonia any Crafter? Yes please! My Craft Jesus rating a 'my most Craftish taproom in France' 83 IBU

Husband fancies himself a beer guru (who knew you could become a guru at something by chilling on the couch with your best bud for hours on end?!) and loved sampling the American-style IPAs brewed in Italy and Sweden. I happily sipped every last drop of my just-right sour ale. Les Berthom has dozens and dozens of beers on tap and in bottles, as well as a full bar. The snacks are small but mighty; we ordered all of them (obviously...) and I had to have my gooey cheese-drenched spoon pried from my salty sausage-coated fingers. Great vibe and attentive service as well--I'll certainly hit up again the next time I'm in Bordeaux.
