Ok on my last post I forgot someone had just posted favorite places to see. So let me try this one...where are your favorite evening spots, to relax with a good drink/wine/beer/music?
Cheers,

Want a bit of a new trendy Pigalle? Here is a good introduction:
Divan du Monde
75 rue des Martyrs
75009 Paris
Tél. : 01.40.05.06.99
Site web : www.divandumonde.com
In the Bastille area, basically a club, but can become more loungy depending on the night. Check the website
La Scène
2 bis rue Taillandiers
75011 PARIS
Tél. : 01 48 06 50 70
www.la-scene.com
Anyway, this portion of rue de Charonne is always busy, you can have a drink / snack at the Pause Café, or la Fée verte on rue de la Roquette
Probably the best jazz lounge in town, with a latino twist:
Le Baiser Salé
58 rue des Lombards
75001 Paris
Tél. : 01.42.33.37.71
www.lebaisersale.com
Métro : Châtelet
If you don%26#39;t like it, walk around the corner to the Duc des Lombards, same kind of stuff
A new place in the heart of the Marais. Jazz, lounge, even a little courtyard if the weather cooperates:
Les 7 Lézards
10 rue des Rosiers
75004 Paris
Tél. : 01 48 87 08 97
www.7lezards.com
If you want to be a bit more adventurous and discover buzzing Gambetta, the new hip neighborhood in Paris, here is an eclectic, bo-bo multifacetted place with a bookstore, a concert hall, a nice restaurant
La Maroquinerie
23 rue Boyer
75020 Paris
Tél. : 01 40 33 30 60
www.lamaroquinerie.fr
Métro : Ménilmontant / Gambetta
I don%26#39;t remember what time of the year you%26#39;ll be there. If the nights are balmy enough, you can try the boats that are moored next to the Bibliothèque nationale de France, on the Seine: Batofar, Guinguette Pirate, etc. Good DJ lineup, miles away from the bateaux-mouche!

Thank you so much for all the detail in your reply, this is very helpful.
We will be there in Late Sept/Oct for got to add that tid bit of info.
Cheers,
|||
any more ideas from anyone? I have 7 evening to fill.....I can not wait!!!
Cheers,
|||
Well, yes, you can wait, you still have more than three months for that! That I would recommend you intelligently fill by buying Time Out%26#39;s Paris guide, by far the best one available in English on the city. It%26#39;ll give you a European (British) eye on Paris, with an impeccably researched %26quot;classic%26quot; sightseeing section, and, most importantly, an updated and flawless entertainment section. I am telling you, the expats who write the guide are real night owls, and their clubs and bars recommendations are spot on. The guide being updated every March, you won%26#39;t risk going to a place that%26#39;s been passé for the last year.
|||
There%26#39;s always Harry%26#39;s Bar of course. Splendid ambience, professionally mixed cocktails, reassuringly expensive. They do not have wine (champagne at a push). Close to Opera. There are several other inviting looking bars the in same street.
Also like Willi%26#39;s Wine Bar on Rue des Petit-Champs. Great bar with huge choice of wines a few of which are resonably priced, and cheese. (You can eat through the back).
Otherwise..... anywhere with a terrace where you can sit out and watch the world go by.

Just throwing this up again to see if anyone has just got back from their trip and has any places to add.
I can not wait to go to Bobin%26#39;o Cabaret it looks like a great night!
/www.bobino.fr
Are there any other discos that are open during the weeknights?
I just want to thank you all so far in taking the time and answering my questions for our firts trip. I have to say going to Europe is much more stressful than planning a trip here in the states due to I have no clue what to expect since there are a few differences. So thank you all again for setting my mind at alot more ease!!!
Cheers,
Stacie

We always walk up to Place de la Contrescarpe. There are cafes on either three or four sides and there seems to always be music and something going on to watch.
Pjk
|||
that is located in the 6th correct?
Cheers,
|||
I think it%26#39;s the 5th. When I was looking I came across what I think is one of the cafes there..Café Delmas.
