Bar Blue Lady Pub — Restaurant in Grasse

I don't get the negative reviews I'm seeing for this restaurant. Mostly I'm seeing reviews from folks about not getting the service they expect; I understand to an extent the unhappiness. Yes, it's not someone checking in on you every 15 mins but it also is a very unassuming and honest pub. I have no qualms walking up for grab a menu or napkins from the bar. Simon checked in on me just enough without being overbearing; in his interactions he made me feel like I could walk up and ask for anything I needed and made it feel like walking into a friend's place.

Now the food; I had the chicken/mushroom pie, and it was the best food I've had in the 3 days I've been in Nice. I'm sure there's more fancy food around but this felt like an honest meal made by some pretty wonderful folks who in my experience were helpful and even made recommendations on where to eat while visiting Antibes. Huge plus, my toddler got a little lolly pop from Simon which was a small yet beautiful gesture.

Keep on keeping...

(So we will see how good this tripple vaccine holds up) Good selection of ales (although 2 ran out) with house ale at 5€ International crowd and english...

Had the special Jay Jay salad with roasted lamb, a potato cake, mixed greens, feta, and a mint-lemon dressing. Very refreshing and filling. The house chardonnay paired with it nicely. They were busy but the server was attentive without being obtrusive.

Update: went for drinks in September and the place was jamming! 20- somethings partying and dancing and having fun. Service was a little slow but understandable given how packed it was. Raspberry mojito was fun and smooth, and the house beer on tap was light,...
