New Bar Thursday: Le Chardonnay

This cozy French bar caters to students with slightly fancier tastes. Specializing in wine and martinis, Le Chardonnay serves as a small, high-class French restaurant by day and classy yet trendy bar by night.  

 

After they stop serving food, the entire place is transformed complete with candles, white linens and European techno playing just below conversation level.  

 

On Saturday nights, Le Chardonnay hosts its signature Martini Night\ with a list of five to 10 large, specialty martinis for $4 each. Bartenders say Le Chardonnay has the best wine list in Madison. The friendly bartenders and frequent DJ make this bar a relaxing scene to get dressed up for.\
