An alimentation génerale turned beer shrine, this tiny shop still carries convenience food alongside its floor-to-ceiling shelves of good beer. A refrigerated case promises cold beer to go, and the shop is open until very late on weeknights, just in case.
Boasting the very best selection of craft beers on tap in Paris, as well as a bottle collection that brings the total offer up to 150 different beers, La Fine Mousse is certainly one of the city’s most well-stocked beer bars. It’s also one of the most expensive. French craft beers share real estate with lesser-known Belgians and German brews, with room left over for the USA, the Netherlands, and less-represented places like Norway and Italy to show off their brewing prowess.
James Henry is back with an ambitious new restaurant where his ingredient obsession expends to house-made bread, butter, charcuterie and more.
A promising new eatery from the people behind the Bistrot Paul Bert, one that has more in common with Le Dauphin or Au Passage than a classic Paris bistro.
Book well in advance, and then look forward to Bertrand Grébaut’s beautiful, seasonal cooking, pristine ingredients, and a fine list of natural wines to match.
Empañadas, asado, ceviche, and chimichurri in the heart of the 11th, from Argentinian chef Fernando de Tomaso.
James Henry, the Australian chef who made a name for himself at Au Passage, will open Bones in early December.
After a series of pop-ups, Top Chef finalist Pierre Sang Boyer has an address in Oberkampf, an open-kitchen showcase for his colorful, modern cooking.
Flora herself does the cooking at this urban inn, offering a range of shareable small plates, or a heftier menu (at higher prices).
Delphine Zampetti, recently of Le Verre Volé, has opened this bright spot, serving sandwiches, salads, and plats du jour for under 10€, to stay or to go. Natural wines, too.
Perpetually popular cave à manger Le Verre Volé has added an épicerie to their roster, selling charcuterie, cheese, grocery items and sandwiches.
Baker Alexandre Chavin’s baguette finished 3rd in the 2012 Grand Prix de la Baguette.
Classic cooking gets an update at this bistro, tucked between Oberkampf and République.
Across from his bistro Le Chardenoux, media-loving chef Cyril Lignac now has a pâtisserie/boulangerie in his roster.
Not to be confused with Au Passage or Bar Le Passage, this bare bones bistro offers a safe, 15€ lunch formula, with à la carte prices significantly higher. Open Monday.
A ruby-red corner bistro, serving a well-priced market menu by chef/owner Xavier Thierry, a vet of Lapérouse and Lucas Carton.
This wine bar next door to (and run by) Le Chateaubriand boasts food by Inaki Aizpitarte, a smooth marble design by Rem Koolhaas and Clement Blanchet, and a great selection of affordable vins naturels
