Things to do
Coffee & breakfast
Café Loustic: This espresso bar in Paris will be your go-to for your morning wake up call.
Coutume Café: This is a great cafe to grab coffee and pastries, but also a spot where you can get a heartier breakfast. Most people love this spot for its pancakes.
HolyBelly: Holybelly has two locations in the 10th arrondissement, and they’re great spots for breakfast and brunch. Kid- and pet-friendly, Holybelly is popular among both locals and tourists.
Lunch & dinner
Le Servan: This bistro gives off a vintage, cozy vibe, and serves up unique French-Asian inspired dishes like ginger pork belly.
Chez Gladines: Feel as though you’ve stepped into southwest France when you dine at Chez Gladines, a cozy French restaurant with farmhouse dishes like stews and escalope.
Buvette: Located on the steep streets of South Pigalle near Montmartre, Buvette is a restaurant, cafe and bar all in one. It’s a cozy spot to enjoy any meal, but is highly praised for its croque-monsieur (which is available to order at any hour).
Drinks
Le Perchoir: This cocktail bar in Le Marais has a chic rooftop bar with views of the Tour Eiffel. A perfect spot to end your night and witness the twinkling lights of Paris.
Le Verre Volé: This is a restaurant and wine bar along the Seine where you can enjoy a large selection of natural wines. If you get hungry, they also serve traditional French fare.
Le Mary Celeste: A cozy and lively neighborhood bar to drink cocktails or wine among friends. The longer you browse their extensive wine list, the more you’ll be tempted to order their inventive sharing plates.
Septime La Cave: This wine cellar is lively with locals and tourists alike – it’s the perfect spot to people-watch. The staff is friendly and will give recommendations on their favorite wines.
