Where to have brunch on the Côte d'Azur / French Riviera !

Created in the United States, brunch takes its name from the contraction of breakfast and lunch. Traditionally served as a buffet, the locals love to gather around a copious spread every weekend on the Côte d’Azur. From Monaco to Cannes, via Nice and Antibes, here is a selection of good places for a delicious brunch on the Côte d’Azur!
