Soirée Guinguette

Do you know what a guinguette is?
One hundred years ago, guinguettes were the place where Parisians went for relaxation, a few kilometres from the city. On Sunday, they came to these small country inns along the edge of the Marne river to make boatrides, watch the pretty girls dance to the sound of the accordion in the "bals musettes" while drinking white wine or "guinguet".
In the guinguette of " petit Robinson " that we have chosen for you, you will taste the aperitif wines of the years 1900 and specialities of the " belle époque ".

Please note: the guingette restaurant is an old-fashion restaurant and therefore jeans, T-shirts, snickers and/or jogging-shoes are not allowed.
