"This is our go to bar and snack place which is conveniently close to where we are living. We are delighted with the service led bye the proprietress Virginia. Surprisingly enough, we had no sticky tables and chairs. This is a place that is very popular with locals and tourists alike, and I would suggest that whilst this is not the Ritz, this is as pleasant as you will get The Terrace is absolutely delightful and everything but there Cini cooks is delicious"

"Last Sunday morning we take a seat at one of the tables of the pastry shop/restaurant La Vie Est Belle for a “coffee break”. Our experience: The service was friendly and helpful. The assortment, in addition to various types of bread, of pastries was wide. The pastries we ordered were tasty and fresh. The coffee was fine and hot. Are there things that need to be changed? Unfortunately yes, this shop/restaurant has many possibilities and that is why it is noticeable that too little attention has been paid to cleanliness (little messy overall). But also the parasols and awnings have had better days. And a “camouflage net” against the sun certainly does not belong here. With minor interventions, this shop/restaurant can be “a place to be”. So, are we coming back? Yes we will definitely be back. Do we recommend a visit to La vie Est Belle? Yes, of course."
