Hotel Cheval hosts special events throughout the year. In addition, the Pony Club, the Hotel Cheval bar, continues the hotel's equestrian theme with a horseshoe-shaped traditional French zinc-topped bar. Offering beer, wine, champagne and small plate appetizers, the Pony Club is the perfect spot for both wine connoisseurs and novices alike.
Join us at the Pony Club every Thursday, for our Behind the Vines - Meet the Winemaker series, featuring a different winery, winemaker and special tasting flights each week.
