I have only played a couple sessions in Wagram (Paris) in my life, so no infos for Cannes but from what i read in South of France (so in casinos and not "cercles de jeux" like Aviation Club de France in Paris), rake seems to be 4% uncapped (i remember reading Robl whine on a thread on 2+2 like 2 or 3 years ago about that because he wanted to play 50 100 during the Partouche Poker Tour)
I have read that some casinos that will offer PLO (don't know if it's for Partouche or Barrière casinos) will put the rake to 2% (still uncapped).
But yeah what i read (don't know if that changed lately) rake seems to be 4% uncapped in NLHE and 2% in PLO.
No entry fees in casinos (only applies for cercles de jeux in Paris)
Where i played i think the drinks weren't offered (but it was really cheap 1 or 2€ for a coke), contrary to Aviation club where you can get free soft drinks imo (like a coke, but yeah i also read on french forums that it was recommended, - don't know if that means mandatory - to tip a 2€ chip, the smallest one since the game is 2-2€ to the waitress.
You will probably won't have a huge offer of tournaments (not that many tables running, probably not as profitable rake wise for them as CG.
Go there

(i clicked on the right casino, and you can see on the left the donkaments coming, you just have to click on the points/buttons on the bottom center at the page to show different days of their tournament calendar)
