"There was only three dishes on the menu, we ordered two but were met with a barrage of additional dishes much to our delight. Everything was delicious and it felt like a wonderful home cooked meal. Couldn’t recommend enough!"
Michael M.
"If you like garlic like I do, make a reservation at Bistrot au Coin on a day when they are serving Le Grand Aioli. We were there on a Saturday when it is all you can order. Definitely have the refreshing Corsican aperitif, especially if it is a hot day, then sit back and wait for an amazing experience. The enormous plate had squid, fish, octopus and snails along with boiled potatoes, eggs, carrots, tomatoes, cauliflower and beets. It was more than we could eat. The aioli is an explosion of garlicky goodness that is without question the best I have ever eaten."
Eric Kirchmann

Where to Eat in Antibes
We didn't stay around Antibes too many days for lunch; opting instead to catch the train and explore other towns up and down the coast, but, luck for us, we happened upon Le Bistrot du Coin , one of the days we stayed in town.
