The best bars and cafés Paris

You enter a devilishly cosy space, where at first you'd be tempted to speak in a low voice, so subdued is everything, and then finally you let yourself be taken in by the chic pub atmosphere, and order one of the incredible cocktails on offer, many of which pay tribute to famous figures from across the Channel. The service here is top-of-the-range - which doesn't mean it's not convivial. Open Tuesday to Saturday from 5 p.m., the restaurant can be privatized for private events.

The particularity of the Riviera is not as long as it is a cocktail bar, but above all that it is a éphémère bar. Yes, yes, you understood, where previously sat "Le 114" now stands a bar-restaurant-club mounted by a band of friends. Located in the Oberkampf district, this friendly atmosphere offers you the opportunity to listen to rock and électro music with a Riviera, Made In Provence or Express Martini. The notice of destruction is displayed on the facade by March 31, 2017. Why not?

Berlin's festive reputation is well established, and can be seen again at the industrially decorated Berliner Wunderbar (note the pun, wunderbar meaning "wonderful" in German). Here, you can order in the language of Büchner and enjoy a refreshing Berliner Weisse. In a musical atmosphere (open turntable evenings from Thursday to Saturday) and while enjoying a beer or cocktail, you can sample Germanic specialties(Curry Wurst, Berliner Dog, Pretzel Pastrami...). The chain has two other bars, in Pigalle and Châtelet.

Located in the Carré Rive Gauche district of Paris, La Cave des Climats is a wine shop offering a wide selection of wines. You can make your purchases in-store, pick them up on site or opt for delivery. La Cave des Climats also offers tailor-made events and privatizations to suit your wishes and budget.

One of the aims of this Café Joyeux, which opened in Paris at the end of last winter, is to enable people with mental and/or cognitive disabilities to work, and to do so in an attractive way. Cooks or waiters, they are the masters of the place, a nice reality that masks another, less glorious one: nearly 90% of disabled people today are unemployed. The place is great, located just off the Passage Choiseuil, and teems with life: a very nice place.

Housed in a magnificently restored neo-classical building, the Pigalle Hotel boasts a lobby called groundfloor, as well as a large bar in a style that's both furiously vintage and contemporary, featuring a vinyl library, newsstands, books, table-dance... all to the backdrop of weekend DJ sets. All set to a backdrop of weekend DJ sets. In this open-air hangout, hotel guests and trendy Parisians mingle. When we tell you that Rue Frochot is definitely one of the most sought-after thoroughfares of the moment, here's further proof.

Located right in the heart of the^3rd arrondissement, this variation offers both takeaway and eat-in sales. The concept here is simple: 100% vegan, 0% gluten and 0% chemicals. From salads and soups to bowls and cold-pressed juices, we show you that eating healthy doesn't mean eating tasteless. Between preserving the environment and preserving your health, here you are in one of the best-known places in the field, and one that works so well that it already has branches in Paris and the suburbs.

Night owls make no mistake when they choose this bar as their new HQ. The beauty of the room, the smiles of the team, the good taste of the food and the delicious cocktails are all reasons for this choice. The establishment is a gentle invitation to travel, its decor and baos evoking Asia without turning into a bamboo jungle. But the main reason people come here is to discover or rediscover the house cocktails. The star of the bar is the Gin, of which Tiger has 130 varieties.

Patrick Loustalot-Barbé has had his tea shop opposite the market in the rue de la Glacière for more than 20 years now: it's a place that is well known to regulars. You can have a tea, a chocolate, a pastry, but also choose among the 250 kinds of teas offered. They come from China, Formosa or India. They are generally large origins placed in a sort of revolving bookcase that is reminiscent of prayer wheels... The art of sublimating tea in form and content, in a way.

La Caféothèque de Paris is a friendly café. It offers a unique experience with its highly skilled waiters, trendy artwork and selection of coffees from around the world. The café offers on-site and takeaway dining, but does not offer delivery. La Caféothèque offers a wide selection of coffees, from ristretto and espresso to cappuccino and latte. It also offers iced drinks, such as shakerato and iced latte. For lovers of mild coffee, it offers alternative preparation methods such as aeropress and the V60 filter. For an immersive experience, La Caféothèque also offers a virtual tour of its premises.

Just a stone's throw from Place de Clichy, Caves Populaires offers wine by the glass, at very reasonable prices. Of course, the bar also serves sparkling wines and cheese and charcuterie boards. We love the long, friendly counter and motley decor of this authentic bar! A word of warning, however: don't expect to find a place if you arrive in a group in the middle of the evening! The place is very popular from 8pm onwards. If you want to enjoy the place, you'd better come during the day.

A small sister from the Place Vendôme, which carved a place of choice among lovers of good wine, this new address opened by Stéphane Girard in the heart of the Golden Triangle is moving in the same direction. One hundred wine wines are offered on the map, between 1 € and 24 € depending on dose and label, in a resolutely modern and engaging decor, suitable for a drink between friends, a tasting or a lively evening start. A carefully prepared small restaurant (planches with charcuterie and cheese…) adds to the possibility of buying bottles to take up to 23 h (Wine by One is also wine merchants). A casual and original place to discover by all lovers of good wines.

A few dozen metres from Place de l'Etoile is a place where bubbles explode in every direction. The Flute Bar welcomes you in its intimate and elegant setting on two levels to drink champagne under the seams: in a tasting, a flute or a cocktail…. The major brands are at the Rendez-vous, from Ruinart to Mumm, by Moët & Chandon, Piper Awarded, Pol Roger, Taittinger… On Tuesday, enjoy the happy hour to enjoy an attractive rate. And those who do not like alcohol, no problem, non-alcoholic champagne also exist. Note that this beautiful location also serves a fusion fusion bar kitchen: caviar, smoked salmon or spring rolls. Champagne!

Just a stone's throw from the Marché Saint-Germain is this rather unique Parisian venue. La Compagnie des Vins Surnaturels is off the beaten track: the decor is very tasteful, with comfortable sofas and armchairs, and the menu is racy. If the prices are too steep, try the entry-level wines, which are already of the highest quality. All the food and drink on offer here is well worth the detour, and over 3,000 wine references have been selected just for you.

You know singer Zaza Fournier, or "Zaza in the subway" (or almost), now you have to count in Paris on Le Zaza Bar! Sweet Andalusian smells come from this establishment reminiscent of New York bars. In the program, of course, zazapunch which is a classic: rum, exotic fruit juice (fruits of passion, mango, guava) and spices (vanilla and/or ginger). This is a real delight! Cocktails are also successes, not counting on plates made up of cod and black icing accras! Thank you Lady Zaza!

If you are looking for a secret passage that will lead you to a safe place, safe from prying eyes? You found it: appointment at the Beef Club Ballroom! A small black door, a dark path, and then ... you fall into a cosy, chic and very studied place. Latest of the constellation of the Experimental Cocktail Club, the establishment offers stunning cocktails for less like the Salers Smach (Salers gentian, absinthe, champagne, fresh mint and squeezed lemons). A unique experience and a nice place with great charms we highly recommend...

One of the incontournables of the neighborhood. The Hardware is for several years now a cozy place, dressed with wood and lit just right, and obviously invaded with beautiful decoration objects: the chic Bohemian spirit, in a way! It is a bar open all day, but it is also a restaurant with continuous service until late. It's cool, classic and very original, and it's cool and good enough. Salads and a dish of the day complete a simple card. Beware, the place is very busy, despite the very high competition in this sector. Finally, many cocktails are offered.

Drink with Lenin and Stalin? You can't tell me… unless you go to the bar Le Kremlin! In this red atmosphere, the colour of the golden era of the USSR, you will indeed admire many portraits of the two emblematic figures of the Soviet era. In the basement, a foot and figurines adorn this place, thus paying homage to a bygone era. Of course, you have to taste two or three vodka shots in the bar, you have 45 possibilities! The cocktails are also à la carte, at the "communist" prices. To discover, therefore, whether or not we share certain left-wing ideologies…

We would like to live all his life in a roommate with his friendly atmosphere and fraternal evenings. To fill this gap, the Kolok bar is a popular and popular bar right next to Montmartre street. Happy hours, quality cocktails, beer not expensive, house/electro… This is a simple place where you go after work, as we associate with a headquarters. Please note that rugby and soccer matches are in honor some nights.

Neither Veni, nor Vidi, nor Vici… Here is Vini, the name of this small wine bar located just a few steps from the rue du Louvre. This cozy, wooded place in Parisian style is pleasant and frequented by a friendly office clientele who's looking forward to 19 hours. On site, the different wines of the exposed map have little known but rather tasty names. So you say it's better to advise you because the choice is quite wide. Enjoy fresh and tasty cocktails. Note that it is also possible to eat locally.

This is an eclectic and sunny address. The Tékéze'n is a bar where you can go to laugh - on Mondays, a show of stand'up is there - and to dance - salsa nights, ladies night, shooters party… But also to drink: Every evening happy hours allow you to find friends and cocktails at very interesting prices (5 € maximum). Please note that 3 basement lounges rooms are privatisables free if you have a birthday!

Welcome to the land where rum is king! This Chester Art, to elegant and classy, is indeed a rum distillery and popular with the young people since its opening in 2012. Suffice to say that everything is here to get drunk with passion: more than 50 rum flavours await you in jars survivors of the Aegean Sea (or almost, we imagine). Every tuesday, the evenings shooters allow you to discover tastes for 5 € only. Temporary exhibitions are also held there. Very pleasant rum distillery to discover, if you like to let yourself go!

A cantina/bar in the heart of Paris, but yes, it is possible if you go to La Mexcaleria! This warm place honours the many festive places you can attend in Mexico City. Here everything is authentic but, of course, the main attraction of the site is the Mezcal, this typical drink rather spicy based on agave (cactus). Test, like other drinks on the map. On the other hand, we don't recommend the proposed dishes, a bit heavy (we should mention it) and not worthy of the good time spent in this nice bar. 

The team behind L'Experimental and Curio Parlor - now closed - are behind this Prescription, said to be one of the capital's best cocktail bars. It's a question of ambiance - select and cosy here - and also of the menu, which evolves like seasonal cuisine. In the heart of Odéon, this is a bar where you'll be guided if, by chance, you're not an expert in the art of cocktails; and if you are, that's okay too, you can experiment with the original creations.

As taprooms multiply in the capital, this one is not lacking in assets. The Brasserie Fondamentale, which has developed this great concept in a number of different locations in Paris, offers a vast choice of beers, as well as tasty small plates to nibble on: the ideal way to get together with friends. Here, the beers are largely developed by the team - who know a thing or two about brewing - enabling us to offer some great unfiltered and unpasteurized beverages with unique flavours.

The place looks like a New York bar, yet it's just a few minutes from the Place de la République. Beyond the cozy, original decor, you come here with friends to feast on great pizzas, and above all to enjoy cocktails masterfully made by top-notch staff - note that you can have your own drinks made! Open until late, the place gets progressively more festive as the evening progresses, with DJ sets on weekends and live music on Thursday nights. We couldn't agree more!

It's a neighborhood bar, lively from morning to night, where regulars come for a coffee at dawn, sometimes with the great breakfast formula, and friends share drinks in the early evening. La Favorite - not to be confused with the capital's eponymous establishments - is located between République and Le Marais, on the busy Rue de Turbigo, so it's easy to find. Note also the lunch and dinner menus, as well as the excellent weekend brunch. In short, an establishment that deserves to be frequented.

Here is an address that all the groove fans should not ignore! The Karambole Café is a festive place where you can hear soul, funk, jazz, drum'n'bass or acid house. Visual creations - video, film - are also on the program of this funny neighborhood bistro that is just a few feet away from The Forks. Please note that during the day you will also be able to make a pleasant stopover in this cozy setting with a good salad or a succulent burger to the gorgonzola. The cocktails are also to be tested!

The Panic Room is the epitome of a trendy bar with a contemporary decor. Opened over a decade ago, it offers the chance to enjoy a house cocktail on the first floor and rock or electro sounds in the basement. Numerous sets are offered every night of the week, giving you the chance to stretch your legs in this environment much sought-after by young hipsters who come here to sweat it out in all the hype. The large vaulted room in the basement can be privatized, ideal for a birthday party with friends!

Contrary to what its name implies, this establishment does not have a jazz club, but Jazz' o' Brazil. You can however listen to Brazilian artists, which are numerous to come and go in Paris, sometimes to sit some time there or to stay in it. Since 2001, Blue Note settled in the 18th district after flaming for several decades rue Mouffetard. Note that this place popular weekend is privatized for your birthday and festivals.

This address has the user-friendly charm of a pub. A few steps from Montmartre, this friendly location is ideal for listening to good music. You can listen to the jazz of any trend on Saturdays, as well as the other days of the week, the song and various music of the world, especially Brazilian music. Better still: the Bab-Ilo is now open to the comics from Tuesday to Saturday at 20 p. m. To view the concert calendar, visit the website and make your choice.

The Petit Ney is an associative literary café open to all, members and non-members. You can enjoy a dish of the day, salty pies or cakes, lunch and evening during shows or entertainment. The main appointments are devoted to slam, storytelling, song and… harmonica. There are also evenings with games from elsewhere and workshops of all kinds - writing, cooking, fashion… Know for your convenience that drinks are from fair trade.

Large and small tables to give as much space to lovers as to groups of friends, painted works or photos on the walls - renewed exhibition regularly -, cooked dishes or more simply plates of cheese or cold meats, wines of small French producers… All this would already provide a clientele of accustomed people in the neighborhood without needing to add. And yet there is more: Good rock concerts, funk, French songs, world music, the Balkans, for example, as well as jazz artists, in particular - Angelo Debarre, Ninine Garcia and Romane have gone there. The big game in sum!

This cultural café of Ménilmontant has a programme where, in the cellar, cross or mix with French songs, Yiddish, Gypsy, neo-folk, jazz, soul, rock, classical. You can also attend contes and surprise events. It is the authentic and multicuturel Belleville found in Les Trois Arts. Music, painting, theatre around the world: This is a crossroads where everyone finds their own account. Visit the website for the entertainment program.

Located between the Grand Boulevard and the Bourse district, the Rock Ball is spread over three floors and 900 square metres. Formerly called the Black Bear and then La Galerie, this establishment offers the broadcasting of sporting events but also after-work on Thursday evenings or clubbing on Fridays and Saturdays, with a generalist musical programme for a very varied clientele. Admittedly, the place is very frequented by the young active people of the district and the weekend revellers, but the atmosphere is not the one we prefer, a little too impersonal.

There is a good time for a DJ on Friday and Saturday evenings. In the vaulted cellar, place to live music these same days with formations that practice all kinds of styles: Rock, disco, soul, jazz, Afro, cajun… The night from Wednesday to Thursday is a bit special. It is reserved for singers and singers, amateurs or not, who want to climb on stage with an orchestra that knows its classic rock, pop or funk. Visit the website to find out how to apply.

This little café tucked away in a small passageway in the Mouffetard district is the place to be for geeks, gamers and manga fans! The space is designed on two levels, with a large selection of arcades and vintage video games for retro gaming addicts, as well as a manga library in the basement. The bar offers a fine selection of water-based syrups, as well as food and drink. There are two options: either enjoy a quiet, comfortable café on the ground floor, or head down to the gaming den, where you'll find street fighters, Mario and Donkey Kong.

Looking for a quiet and soothing place where you can recharge your batteries? This is the Valmy, a pleasant address to settle after a walk on the quays of the Canal Saint-Martin. Probably less noisy and less have seen me as neighboring bars and breweries, but perhaps also a less qualitative chouïa. However, regular animations are taking place, including storytellers who tell their stories, while exhibitions make it possible to make young artists known.

A very stylishly decorated decoration, signed by Elisabeth de Portzamparc, wife of Christian, the author architect of the Cité de la Musique.

The staff were very friendly and helpful.

A great classic of the St. Martin Canal.

A very cosy underground lounge that also wants gay friendly. The tone is given by the red lights, the lacquered bar and the grey cloth stretched on the walls, it is class with a small clandé side of the s. We don't come here to celebrate, but rather to drink a glass in mind on a musical background trend jazzy. The location is very friendly, even if the tranquillity is set, is also perfect for meetings. We appreciate the professional and dynamic team of the place.

La Promenade Lounge is a cocktail bar located in the Halles district of Paris. It offers a cosy, subdued atmosphere, ideal for enjoying delicious cocktails. The armchairs are comfortable and the atmosphere pleasant. Prices are right for the neighborhood. Customers particularly recommend the cocktails, which are apparently very good and affordable. Certain dishes are also popular, such as the Salade Nordique and the Grilled Salmon. The Promenade Lounge also offers a buffet brunch with plenty of choice.

Born from a Franco-American concept, this bar, with its stylish lounge and décor, offers everything that a cocktail-restaurant bar can offer. Open from 7 a. m., you will enjoy your breakfast from 5,50 € with hot drinks, pastries and pressed fruit juice, but also lunch or dinner with original dishes around 15 €.

Young gay and lesbian young, but open to all, the place is very noisy, Spanish, perched inside, living on the terrace - difficult that it is otherwise given the central location - which is larger than the interior (and heated in winter). Cocktails are especially good, the happy hour is appreciated, the service is nice and some boards allow you to fill your belly. An institution since 1995, which is expected to know some renovations soon.

Small terrace from the arrival of the sun. Ludo and its entire team have transformed Lax into a gay, lesbian and hetero friendly bar. Bathed in a metal garden, with warm grey walls heated by warm Bordeaux, the music of the two resident DJs on weekends is the. Warmly welcomed, as it must, we never feel alone.

Thursday is reserved for lesbian evenings (the Miss Crazy election), the crazy Friday Crazy. Female backroom on Thursday and men the rest of the time, distributor distributor for guys AND (rare enough to be stressed) babes! No dress code but proper behavior required. Smoking.

Beware, guys must be "marrainés" and are welcome. User friendly. Many local information. . (quiches, pies, snacks).

Rear room with cabins, backroom, video screen. One of the first gay bars opened in Paris - in 1979 - in the north of Paris, far beyond the Marais. Mustache coffee resists willingly. Customers are mostly seasoned, fans of teddy bears, olds, or even much more.
