Snug & Cellar Bar sur Nice

The best place to hide away in Nice!

Good looks, good price, friendliness and good vibes

A pub that truly feels "local." My first time at Snug & Cellar, and so far I've only seen the terrace… but it's already enough to give you a good idea of ​​the place! We settle down at a table, amidst the hustle and bustle of Rue Droite, one of the liveliest little streets in Old Nice. Next to me, a regular of a certain age calmly sips his glass of wine, then leaves. For a good ten minutes, no one seems particularly bothered by my presence. 😄 Then a blonde woman comes out, sees me, calmly continues clearing tables and attending to the others… and finally comes over to ask me what I'd like. In English, of course! Not exactly the kind of place where they pounce on you as soon as you sit down: here, they take their time and let you live your life. It's a bit rough around the edges, a bit casual, but ultimately quite charming and, above all, much more authentic than some of the very "touristy" establishments in Old Nice. And then there's the setting: Rue Droite, the constant flow of people, the old buildings, the terraces, and that very particular atmosphere of Old Nice. Even without having explored the interior yet, Snug & Cellar already has a real personality. I'll be back to see if the interior confirms this first impression. 😉 What also struck me was the contrast with some other pubs in Old Nice, like Ma Nolan's or Akathor. There, the service is very organized and professional, with young waitresses and waiters from Northern Europe, tablets in hand, orders taken immediately, etc. Here, it's the complete opposite: the service seems much more relaxed, almost artisanal. You wait, you observe, you're left undisturbed at your table… and someone eventually comes over. 😄 And, oddly enough, this gives Snug & Cellar a much more authentic and less formulaic feel.

Not an Irish pub but serves Guinness. Fantastic staff great little pub.

Ideal spot to drink! Fantastic service!

This feels like a real neighborhood Irish pub, nothing fancy here but good old fashioned conversation and atmosphere

best irish pub in nice. the bar owner seemed stressed but he was just as nice for it.

I dont drink but very hospitable and nice people.

I visited this pub during the France-Paraguay match; the atmosphere and service were fantastic. I highly recommend it – it's a very friendly experience!

Say hello to the greats Charlie & Oliver from the Joker! I'm sure you're both posted up as usual and will see you on my next travels. Wonderful bar & staff as well.
