The Senequier cafe is known for its bar-brewery-pastry activity, also known for its whit nougat, for 129 years now. Some coffee fraps, liegeois and viennois drinks for your biggest pleasure.

No matter the time of year, it’s a real pleasure to sit at the Senequier’s table with its big red terrace on the port and take advantage of the tropezian landscape. Even the designer house, Chanel, chose this prestigeous place for a fashion show in 2011. If you’re looking for trendy places, come by the Senequier.
