Where to Eat and Drink in Paris

The food scene in Paris is extraordinary. Whether you want French classics or trendier cuisines, you will have no problem finding what you’re looking for. The same goes for drinks. Paris has an incredible cocktail scene – from traditional French wine and absinthe to inventive cocktails and daiquiris.

For my last trip, I had quite the long list of where to eat and drink. In all honesty, it was a bit aggressive, and I knew that it would be a bit unrealistic to consume that much in three days, but I like to be prepared. (And it gives me something to look forward to on my next trip.)

Check out these five incredible places on your next trip to Paris:

Cafe Kitsune

For those looking for a takeaway coffee, specialty drinks, like matcha, or almond milk, Cafe Kitsune is the spot for you. Grab a coffee and wander around the Jardin du Palais Royal.

Claus

For you brunch fanatics, Claus is your spot. Offering pre-fixe brunch options, you’ll be able to enjoy egg dishes, patisserie, breads, coffee, and mimosas. They don’t take reservations, so be prepared to wait in line.

Le Café Plume

A classic Parisian cafe and bistro, Le Café Plume has a range of menu items that will make anyone smile. My order? Aperol Spritz, fois gras, and fries.

Dépôt Légal

This is the spot for all you late lunchers. Open beyond the traditional Parisian lunch hours, Dépôt Légal has a divine spin on the croque monsieur. Get an apple juice to go with it. It’s absolutely mind-blowing.

Lulu White’s Drinking Club

If you’re looking for a high energy place to start or end your night (hell, even spend your night), Lulu White’s is for you. This Montmartre bar serves absinthe flights and daiquiris in addition to traditional cocktails all the while blasting classic American songs.
