Beer in La Defense

Can anyone recommend a lively bar in la Defense for a beer after work?

No

Lively and La D��f after dark do not mix. THere are a couple of places you can get a drink sure but the peoeple who live there don%26#39;t work there and vice versa, the majority of people want to leave the place and get home as quickly as possible after work.

That said if you want a drink you should try Le Bistro �� Vins or Caf�� Malongo which are in the middle of the pedestrianized %26#39;parvis%26#39; area near the fountains and the distinctive EDF tower. (The Starbucks is there too.)

Because the transport links are so good don%26#39;t feel you have to stay in La D��f in the evening though. I think there%26#39;s an Irish pub in Neuilly a couple of metro stops away and if you take the RER, 2 euros one way, you can be in the %26#39;op��ra area in 10 minutes (the station is called Auber, all trains stop there and going home all trains stop at La D��f). and the service runs till about 1am. Once you%26#39;re at Op��ra you%26#39;re surrounded by bars, restaurants and cineams - head up Blvd. Des Capicines.

For more of a tourist trip get the metro or RER to Charles de Gaulles Etoile which is the Arc de Triomphe end of the CHamps Elys��es.

By the way - I say La D��f %26#39;cos I%26#39;m lazy when I%26#39;m writing, no one will understand if you say it ;-)
