PS. Our curated soundtrack to discovering Bordeaux is coming soon.
@ph7bordeaux : connecting carefully selected traditional and contemporary objects from all over the world, pH7 is a refuge for those that desire authenticity and savoir faire. Wabi-sabi, but in Bordeaux.
@mimicremerie : a grocer’s shop — épicerie sounds so much better — dedicated to the finer things in life. Such as cheese, wine, butter and charcuterie, from small producers from all over France.
@cafeeriu : neighbourhood café and restaurant with an Irish twist that is welcoming and easy-going, and located near a lush jardin public. A lovely place for breakfast, brunch and lunch.
@pickles.bordeaux : bar and restaurant in the heart of the city, with a focus on — you guessed it! — pickles and fermented vegetables. Also offers a great selection of natural and organic wines.
@lameca_nouvelleaquitaine : an architectural masterpiece, designed by Bjarke Ingels. La MECA houses artists, authors, producers, directors, visual artists, choreographers and more, and the public is welcome to attend and observe whatever is going on.
@motto_bar : bar Ideal for fans of cocktails and fresh tapas. An intimate and welcoming spot with a wide range of signature cocktails, accompanied by great music and the occasional DJ set.
@lalchimiste_torrefacteur : a true haven for coffee connoisseurs, l’Alchimiste offers honest, traceable and — above all — damn tasty coffee. More than just a coffee bar, it’s also a roastery, and a place where future baristas can learn everything there is to know.
