The Carlton Bar sits inside the InterContinental Carlton Cannes at 58 Boulevard de la Croisette, in the historic palace hotel that opened in 1913. It is one of the most recognisable cocktail addresses on the Riviera, particularly during the Film Festival, when film-industry guests fill the terrace and lobby. The menu is built around classic and signature cocktails, champagne and wine by the glass, and light bites. Prices are high even by Cannes standards, with cocktails from about EUR 20-25. The atmosphere is elegant and international, and the dress code is smart casual; swimwear and flip-flops are not accepted.
