THE SMOKING DOG REVIEWS

A unique atmosphere in Saint Etienne. Reasonable price and pleasant server! Most customers are regulars but are people of taste! Even for a simple beer, for a traveler, it feels like home.

The best bar in Saint-Etienne, super friendly staff, great atmosphere, all the customers are true sweethearts. I had a great evening, a Parisian lost in this city. I had a blast. Come people you won't regret it.

Very pleasant discovery, we went there quite late one evening with my husband for a drink, it was a very good atmosphere, full of young people having fun, the waiters were super cool and gave good advice, the beer and fruit juices are perfect we will come back with pleasure.
