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. 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.

Walking 18,000 steps a day might sound like a lot, but it’s hardly noticeable when you're immersing in the sights and sounds of a beautiful city like Paris. Imagine strolling past cafes, boulangeries, shops, grocery stores, children playing in parks, and people walking their dogs. You can grab a croissant and coffee, sit in the park or by the Seine River to rest for a while, and then continue your walk. That’s what this itinerary is all about—no rush, just being in Paris, walking, and exploring all the places that ordinary tourists on buses, the metro, or in Ubers won’t experience. We're sharing our actual 6-day, 5-night thoughtfully paced Paris itinerary. I hope you find it helpful for planning your next trip! It’s detailed and will guide you to famous sights and some off-the-beaten-track places, places to eat, and tips to make your trip to Paris unforgettable.
