A new adventure begins at l’Échappée Belle!

We are very pleased to announce that Nicolas Moreau has joined our team this month as our new Bar Manager.

He succeeds Julie, who has chosen to continue her training. We sincerely thank her for her commitment and excellent work, and we wish her every success for the future!

Aged 32 and living in Gex, Nicolas is passionate about beer brewing, gastronomy, music and, of course, the world of the bar. With his experience and enthusiasm, he fits perfectly with the spirit of l’Échappée Belle.

We welcome him warmly and wish him every success in his new role.

Come and take a tour, toast with us and meet Nicolas in person!

We are very happy to introduce our new brewer: Jean Marc Schilder!

 

Jean Marc, 51, comes from Colmar and is the father of a 17 year old daughter. He joined our team at the beginning of July and has already settled in very well. He also brings with him a wealth of experience spanning over 20 years in beer brewing 🍺.

He even ran his own brewery with BrewPub, which he successfully sold in 2023.

We are delighted to welcome him to our team and wish him all the best in his new role!

This Saturday, our brasserie had the pleasure of taking part in the Fête de la Musique in Divonne-les-Bains with our own bar. Thanks to splendid weather, an ideal location and a highly motivated team, the evening was a real success!

Our bar stayed open until 1am, and the flow of visitors never stopped. It was a real pleasure to see so many familiar faces – friends, regulars and the curious – come to share this festive moment with us.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came to see us!

 

 

Dear friends

L’Echappée Belle and its brasserie are celebrating their 7th anniversary on Saturday May 24th 2025!

To mark the occasion, we’re bringing you not 1 but 2 bands.
And not the least: at 7 p.m., it will be the TomBés du Camion, and at 8.30 p.m., it will be the turn of the Rolling Dads!

To make sure you have a great day out, we’ve put together a few surprises for you! Exceptionally, we’ll be opening our doors at 14:00.

Stay tuned for more information in the coming days!

Dear friends,

Our finds box is so full it’s threatening to overflow.
That’s why we’d like to do some spring cleaning there too!

Here you’ll find photos of all the jackets, hats, scarves, toys etc. that have accumulated over the last two years. We’re keeping them for another four weeks, after which we’ll pass them on to the Restos du Cœur.

So come along and pick up your stuff and/or have a drink!

 

 

Our opening hours are slightly changed during the festive season:

 

Welcome to our first Christmas market, where the magic of the festive season comes to life!

From the gourmet smells of mulled wine, gingerbread and hot chocolate, to the glittering stalls of local crafts, and the joyous melodies that fill the air, our Christmas market is a place where young and old alike can come and celebrate together.

And St Nicholas will also be paying us a visit on Friday!

Come to see us in the Divonne les Bains fan zone, at the Esplanade, during the two weeks of the Olympics!
The brewery & bar will of course remain open for you to sample our delicious craft beers!

We hope to see you soon!

We’re proud and excited to announce that we’ve been selected for the second year running to take part in the Lyon Bière Festival on 27 and 28 April!

It’s a real accolade for our craft brewery to be part of this prestigious event alongside leading international and European breweries.
We look forward to seeing you at this exceptional event to share our passion for craft beer and discover new flavours together.

Stay tuned for more information about our participation in the Lyon Bière Festival.
Thank you all for your continued support!
