The rooftop

Perched above Cognac, the rooftop of Bar 1838 offers an exceptional panoramic view of the city. In an elegant and intimate atmosphere, it invites guests to savor signature cocktails at sunset, in a setting designed for relaxation and summer escapism, punctuated by games of pétanque on the terrace in a friendly and laid-back spirit.

Reopening on May 14

The Rooftop will reopen on May 14 for the 2026 season. An opening night will kick off the summer, followed by lively events throughout the summer season. Starting May 15, a resident DJ will liven up the nights on the rooftop, keeping the party going until the end of the season.
