Go for a walk around the river. Bring a bottle of rose and a book on a nice summer day.
My favorite clothing store in Paris. There are a few throughout the city: Canal Saint Martin, Saint Germain, & the Marais.
My favorite Laudree location. Especially the back bar area for a great lunch. Closed for renovations at the moment.
English-speaking. Free wifi. Open late when you're feeling jet lagged. Open mic on Weds. Trivia night on Sundays.
If you're looking for authentic regional French cuisine at budget prices, prefer generous portions to a frillier presentation, and enjoy dining in a convivial, casual setting, Chez Gladines is a must.
Amazing tea and cakes. Expect a long wait on the weekends. Best to arrive for an early lunch in the middle of the week.
There's a secret cocktail bar in the back of this tacqueria. Paris is low on Mexican food, and this is the best I've found.
My go-to for English-speaking nights. Open mic on Mondays. Live music most other nights. Free wifi. Tell Ana I sent you. : )
So so lovely in the summer. It's something out of Alice in Wonderland. Check listings for free concerts. Bring a bottle of wine.
You won't see a sign for this cocktail club from the street. Part of the Experimental Cocktail Club family. Nice respite from the tourists in Saint Michel.
This designer hotel with sleek rooms at democratic prices is located behind the Père Lachaise cemetery; there's a hip bar, restaurant, and pizzeria. Leer más.
Packed, sticky jazz club with amazing local musicians. There's a great jam on Sunday nights with young talent.
For late night food post drinks. They are open 24 hours. Have a burger and champagne at 6a. I find the rude waiters charming.
Great Toulouse food. Fun vibe. Great vibe from the staff. Delicious wines. The meats are amazing.
My favorite cafe. Don't expect to speak English here. Do expect to have a great plate of food. Sit on the corner for people watching. Especially on Sundays.
American sports, free wifi, friendly faces of Emma and Matthew serving drinks. More of a student bar. Live music on Sunday nights.
Un bar hors du temps avec une déco chaotique, Essaie la bière Campus, servi par une dame de plus de 90 ans, un bad trip !
A very nice little bar english style near Republique with indie folk gigs downstairs, cheap prices and cool people !
A favorite lunch spot. Quite the people watching. Everything is delicious, but I recommend the sea bass "filet de bar." A bit pricey but worth the treat. Breakfast is great too.
International magazines and newspapers. Great maps of Paris and guides. Moleskins, notebooks, pens, etc
Classic French with a twist. Not stuffy. Friendly staff. Quirky decor and busy with neighborhood folks. Highly recommend the veal cheeks.
