Picador - Arles

Picador is an object lesson in how NOT to run a bar/restaurant. We called in twice and found indifferent service from a hopeless waiter more interested in sitting and talking with his friends. On our first visit we managed one drink each. And excellent stout poured straight from the font. We were very much interested in the haphazard display of dusty bottles but, alas our single server was off outside chatting with friends.Customers came and went all empty handed. There was no "carte des bieres', no information and certainly no staff. So we left.Returning the very next evening we again failed to catch the attention of the self same waiter. And this time we didn't even manage to get served at all before leaving.A bar like this with a selection of craft beers and charcuterie + cheese could be a big hit. But they will need to find some trustworthy staff first.Its a shame as we were the advance party for a larger group all in town for the annual Photographic Exhibition. But we warned others away. No point in coming to somewhere without the slightest interest or passion in the product they were selling

Resto très sympa. L équipe est très agréable et si vous aimez la charcuterie, le fromage et de bonnes bières artisanales c'est l'adresse qu'il faut connaître. Vraiment une bonne soirée.

Nous avons pris un soir un plateau découverte pour nous deux (deux adultes). C'était emplemenent suffisant. Nous avons profité d'une explosion de saveurs de la région. Différents fromages et charcuteries à déguster de préférence avec les mains. Nous avons complété par des petits tapas également très bons. Le resto propose également différents vins. Nous avons trouvé la carte des boissons pas très claire ou plutôt, nous ne l'avons pas trouvée du tout. Je pense que ce resto convient bien pour une petite soirée dégustation.

I found Arles charming but dead from before 10.00 PM onwards. Albeit after visiting restaurants for dinner I went walking to find anywhere still open for a drink. Luckily I found Picador. Others there were eating but I had already done that. So I and my friends had drinks and sat outside noting others come and go to this island of life in the dead town. The service was good and friendly. Recommended.

Super moment tardif au Picador. Un accueil charmant, des produits savoureux et une ambiance joyeuse et bon enfant.
