Le 17.45 République

This guide is a collection of curated restaurants from all around Paris that Les Frenchies have tried and are happy to recommend. It includes cafes, bistros, bouillons, tea salons, and more. These are sit-down restaurants where you can enjoy traditional French dishes and must-try items while visiting Paris. And many of them were featured in our videos. Bon Appetit!

Perhaps the singular most frequent question I get asked having lived in Paris since 2016 is "do you have any recommendations for a great French restaurant?". The answer is Yes! This guide includes: 🇫🇷 20 Classic French brasseries and bistrots I've been to and loved, sorted from least to most expensive with price estimates per person. 🇫🇷 2 Corner Cafes that I truly adore (sometimes 'corner cafes' will also be brasseries or bistrots, but to me, corner cafes have their own special vibe). 🇫🇷 3 Corner Cafes that are specifically for great people-watching. 🇫🇷 5 Restaurants specializing in traditional dishes like crêpes, planches, flammekueche, French-style tapas, and more. [NEW: Nov 2024] 🇫🇷 13 Restaurants known for their views of the Eiffel Tower and city skyline. This guide does not include: French fine dining and Michelin-starred restaurants. BONUS: If you purchase this guide and don't speak French, I'm happy to call and make one reservation for you. You also get: ✍️ My personal notes for each recommendation 📍 An interactive map of all recommendations 🔓 Access to all future updates (I add to it as a find great restaurants) 🎞️ Linked videos (where applicable) that bring recommendations and advice to life 💙 If you loved these suggestions, I would really appreciate it if you shared this guide with a friend, left a great review, or contributed a tip.

I am currently preparing for my 8th visit to Paris. I am in love with this city and I am very passionate about exploring as much of it as humanly possible throughout my lifetime. This is the list I would send my friends/family if they said to me "Dani, I'm going to Paris". I would be more than happy to consult with you about your trip to Paris and how to work these favorites into specific itineraries for specific areas. Feel free to email me at planformedani@gmail.com or reach out on instagram at @planforme.dani You can also book a consult or itinerary with me here through thatch! I have spent a lot of time here getting off the beaten path and seeing many things beyond the main sites. I have tried some popular things like going up in the Eiffel Tower and visiting the Notre Dame and some popular spots to eat and hang out. But I have also gotten way off the beaten path with things like a Street Art tour in the Belleville neighborhood, or visiting some more quirky dinner spots. I find this to be a fun and vibrant guide to Paris that takes you to some wonderful places.
