Drinks & Nightlife

With a Francophile flair (named after Serge), this hip place has great style, art, French movies projected overhead and the bar menu is soooo good (try the poutine and the cocktails). Also, known to be a Twin Peaks' fan bar being that the entire back room near the bathrooms looks like the Black Lodge scene. A great photo opp!
