What Лариса Пономаренко doesn't like about L'Illustration:
Avoid disappointment head to much better venues all around this one. Staff were incredibly rude to sober and friendly foreigners (and yes, we were speaking French so it wasn't that). View all feedback. What GLWayne likes about L'Illustration:
Perfect for a relax with a couple of beers its a very attractive building with comfy seating, a good drinks selection and a laid back atmosphere. So good we came here at the start of the evening and decided to come back later on too. View all feedback.

Like many bars in the old town, this place has a charm that is clean. The singer was also a lovely touch. It's small, but it's pretty.

The large board is not enough for the price we imagined, but the service is very good and fast.

A small bar so typical, warm, beautiful furniture and a beautiful deco and good pressure beer, local or regional beers.
