Les Caves Madeleine

A wine bar rather than a café, and one of the better places in Beaune to drink by the glass without committing to a full bottle. The selection rotates and includes producers from across the Côte d'Or as well as Mâcon and Chablis. The staff are knowledgeable about what's on without being evangelical about it, which is rare in Beaune where everyone has an agenda.

The small terrace on the street is the place to be on warm evenings. Simple food — charcuterie, cheese, bread — is available to accompany the wine. It gets busy after 7pm.
