Brasserie La Marine

Bratislava


Overlooking the water's edge, La Marine luxuriates in nautical regalia from ship's wheels to sail-like canvas curtains. The food, meanwhile, leans French – escargots (snails), coq au vin – though there are plenty of Central European dumplings and schnitzels woven into the menu. Secure a riverside terrace table and peruse the impressive wine list, with French and Slovak drops amply represented.

It's a 10-minute walk east of the old town, attached to Eurovea mall.
