Papillon Rouge - Libreville

Right by the see. You can eat and drink at the sound of the wave! Great place

Great ocean view and good service. Needs some lighting equipments.

Simple beachfront place. Great view and splendid breeze. Lebanese and European fare. Service is either good or terrible depending on whether the waitress is busier with her whatsapp chats or with clients. Have regularly complained about loud music when having business meetings and subsequent inability to hear much.

Food is really excellent, but takes a long time to arrive. I've had no issues but I'd be lying if I'd said hygiene isn't a concern. Beer is cold, and service is prompt. Prices are reasonable (for the area). A big problem is the bathrooms, or lack thereof. The waitress directed me around the corner to two port-a-loos, with no lighting whose doors were blocked by more unused equipment than I was willing to move. After a few beers this is more than a little problem. Atmosphere is good, and sitting on the beach is almost always a good idea. I enjoy the Red Butterfly, and visit regularly.

Beach side restaurant....many options of seating and enjoying the beach....
