Irish Coffee at Ozo
DRINKING OUT IN LE MARAIS
Bonjour from Le Marais,
There are hundreds of friendly places to go out in le Marais, but what major guide books don't know and what we insiders do is when and where to go.
Time matters and what used to be popular last year is not always still in fashion.
Read on to discover our favourite bars, cafés and brasseries in the eternally chic Marais district. This is of course not a complete list of the hundreds of places you will find in le Marais, but our own tried and true selection.
These are the places we have visited many times, enjoy for their location, style, and ambiance as well as warm welcome. We now share them with you.
Since it's winter time, we have tested where to get the best Irish Coffees in Le Marais.
You generally drink them after dinner here, when restaurants become cocktail bars and the clientele is mainly night owls who are afraid of nothing, including seducing you.
Be ready for Le Marais nightlife !
We want to hear from you – if you visit these places, feel free to share the fun on our Facebook page !
As the French law states : « l'abus d'alcool est dangereux pour la santé » so Enjoy Le Marais Bars and clubs, but know your limits.
