Bel endroit très bien situé, le personnel est gentil & attentionné, prix raisonables pour le secteur, la bouffe est ok - la terasse vaut la peine!

I visited this bar recently & overall the service itself was fine. However, when I paid, the payment machine prompts were in French & I didn't fully understand them, so I accidentally completed the transaction without leaving a tip.

Afterward, the server came back & asked if something was wrong with the service. I said everything was good, but then he asked why I hadn't left a tip & continued insisting on it, which made the situation very uncomfortable & awkward for me. I eventually gave a tip just to avoid further discomfort.

I believe tipping should always be optional & customers should never feel pressured into it.
