This very friendly gay/lesbian bar has a wide selection of wines and other drinks. Generous portions of freshly-prepared snacks are also available.

Also worth a visit for the super murals on the wall, and it offers a showcase for local artists working in various media.

Clientele is mainly, but not exclusively, lesbian and gay.

A great late-night drinking den, with good quality DJs and pool tables for those still coordinated enough to play in the small hours.

Spacious Irish pub bar. Guinness and Murphys excellent. Live music - big screens for sporting events. Lively atmosphere. Good spot in the heart of old Nice.

This little bar/resto is located two-thirds up the road to the right of the Palais de Justice in Vieux Nice.

It is unmissable, being adorned in red and black and by a picture of its mascot gobi fish.

This is a bar that still retains an old Nicois feel and is frequented by local families whose kids and pets run in and out freely.

Everyone is very friendly and will chat to you in Nicoise or French about Olympique Nice or the tram system - whether you like it or not.

Seating is at a premium but if you do wait, glasses of rosé are freely forthcoming. Offers a range of Nicoise classics including a great version of the eponymous salad.

The ultimate antidote to the über-rich Azuriens and general Vieux Nice gentrifiction.

Stand facing the Palais de Justice in Vieux Nice. Take the road to the right side of the building. Bar Antoine is two thirds of the way up on the left.

This is a great live music venue located in the old town and serves a very large main courses for about £6.

The curry is exceptionally tasty mixed with salad, chutney and a dollop of ice cream. Half-price beer (usually around £4 a pint) is on offer most evenings until about 9pm.

Nice was far too expensive, and I refuse to be ripped off. So instead of going to the clubs, we went to the beach. Busy with young Italians predominantly; the place is buzzing.

Buy a beer from the guys strolling along with coolboxes ... they sell more than just beer. Chill out and watch the skinny-dippers taking on the sea.

This became a nightly thing to do for us. And the highlight of the night: the ferry coming into port every 11pm. Watch, smile and say nothing as the big waves clear the front of the beach quick-smart. Classy.
