À la Folie Café

"Bar Derrière is the best Lagniappe alternative in South Beach—and a somewhat hidden wine bar worth knowing about regardless. This alleyway space is actually part of À la Folie Café, a solid French spot on the west end of Española Way. The natural wine bar has an antique store thing going on, with mismatched tables for small groups and a few bottle options in the $50 to $60 range. You can just drink here, but you can also order food from À la Folie Café. They have a lot of wine bar-appropriate French snacks like charcuterie, foie gras maison, and paté served with baguette.  " - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino

"Bar Derrière is a wine bar where you can get a bottle for $50 to $60 and drink it in a cute alleyway that feels pleasantly secluded. The space is actually part of À la Folie Café, a good French spot on the west end of Española Way—where the touristy street gets a little less touristy. It has an antique store thing going on, with mismatched tables for small groups and prices that are quite reasonable for the area. You can just drink here, but you can also order food from À la Folie. They have a lot of wine bar-appropriate French snacks, like charcuterie, foie gras maison, and paté served with baguette.

"À la Folie Café is a French restaurant on the west end of Española Way. But we come here for its cute little alleyway wine bar, Bar Derrière. It has an antique store thing going on, with mismatched tables for small groups and a few bottle options in the $50 to $60 range. And it's essentially part of the restaurant too—you can order food from À la Folie's menu while you're there. You can have a meal just with French snacks, like charcuterie, foie gras maison, and paté served with an appropriate amount of baguette. Or you can go for heartier dishes like tartiflette or croque monsieur. Things might feel a little touristy here (you are on Española Way), but rest assured that this place is no tourist trap.   " - Ryan Pfeffer

"Of course, you can never go wrong with spots like La Folie Cafe and Osteria Romana." - Olee Fowler
