Expertly mixed cocktails and natural wines coexist peacefully at this low-key bar à manger.
This classic off the Champs-Elysées is open 24 hours a day, serving up burgers, tartare, and aged steaks that will please carnivores.
Once upon a time, Olivier Magny ran wine tastings and classes out of his own apartment. Now he’s opened a vast, slick wine bar near Les Halles with a list of about 500 bottles and 40 glass pours.
The market at Les Halles is long gone, but its legacy is still in evidence at Chez Denise, an old-school, shoulder-to-shoulder, red-checked tablecloth classic.
This historic spot is known for oysters and grand platters of fruits de mer, as well as its classified, Louis Majorelle – designed art deco toilettes.
It’s pizza by the kilo at this (vaguely) Roman-style spot. Bright lights, high stools and cheap wine by the carafe. Locations in Oberkampf and the upper Marais.
A truly mixed crowd packs this Oberkampf wine bar, for natural wine and small plates.
The mood goes from picnic to party as the day progresses at this pavillion in the Parc des Buttes Chaumont. Small plates, straightforward plats du jour and drinks.
Crêpes up front and pork (Ibaïona) in the rear. It’s standing room only at Yves Camdeborde’s tapas and wine bar, a hit since it opened in fall of 2009. Go during the off hours or be prepared to be get to know the person next to you very, very well.
An arty haven on the east side of Sacre-Coeur. Flea-market decor, traditional French cooking and easy prices.
Updated comfort food (conceived by Alain Senderens) is on the menu at Mama Shelter, a boutique hotel in the 20th.
The people watching — if not the food– is fantastic at De Flore, where tourists cram in with fashion people and literary types (real or imagined) for coffee, drinks, and a little piece of Left Bank history. Those with vertigo should not look at prices.
