Ninkasi Montpellier is a craft brewery bar and restaurant on Place Pablo Picasso, a few steps from the Marché du Lez. The tram stop bearing the square's name is close by, which makes it an easy stop whether you are arriving from the centre or from elsewhere in the city.
The brand was founded in Lyon in 1997 and is known as a pioneer of craft beer in France. Here the focus is on French craft beers, served alongside a menu of gourmet burgers and generous XXL salads. It is a relaxed place for a meal or a drink, and the kitchen keeps the same approach across the week.
Brunch and evenings
On weekends, brunch is served, so a late morning visit is an option as well as dinner. Once the sun goes down, the programme changes. Evening events include Disco Bingo and Karaoké Chorale nights, a blind test on Mondays, and concerts or DJ sets. If you enjoy a lively atmosphere with something happening, check what is scheduled before you go.
