BOEL

Anyone who thought boules was only for senior French people is wrong. Because throwing a ball at Jeu-de-boules bar BOEL is anything but boring. While enjoying one of the homemade cocktails or a surprising special beer, you can have a fun game of boules. And besides boules courts, you can also go there for good food and tasty drinks. The ideal activity for a casual get-together. Who will become the boules king or queen?
