NYKAT, a restaurant in Antibes – seasonal sharing plates
In the heart of Old Town Antibes, at 24 rue Aubernon, NYKAT serves seasonal food made for sharing. Plates are passed around the middle of the table, alongside the chef’s latest creations, signature cocktails and wines from independent winemakers.
Here, food and music play from the same score: live piano on Wednesdays, a DJ on Fridays, piano then a DJ on Saturdays. Come for lunch, dinner, Sunday brunch, or simply a drink at the bar.

As the evening goes on, the light shifts and the music takes over. This blend of food and atmosphere is what defines NYKAT, a restaurant in Antibes where the plate stays at the center of the experience.
