Modern Nightclubs and Bars For more modern entertainment, Ménilmontant, Parmantier, the Bastille and the Marais are wildly popular nightclubs. Jazz lovers will also find plenty of venues, especially in the Latin Quarter and Les Halles, where shows may not start until after 10 p.m. Cabarets are also plentiful, ranging in styles of entertainment from new performers to the famous, and providing less expensive options than bigger clubs. You can find guides online to bars, pubs and cafes by price and popularity. Paris has beer gardens, breweries, wine bars and cabarets, so you will likely find something that suits your mood and your budget! Restaurants Dining in Paris presents a challenge to the palate and the pocketbook. Whether on a budget or not, sometimes one can enjoy the food, and certainly the atmosphere more, by stopping at the sidewalk displays of fruits, bread and cheeses, picking up a bottle of wine, and sitting on the bank of the Seine or in a park to eat. But for those who want a sit-down meal, you have an overwhelming 8,000+ choices in restaurants and other eateries. A little research for categories of restaurants can provide the visitor to Paris with a list of choices ranging from tea rooms and fast foods to international cuisine. If you're trying to balance a budget and eat too, with maybe a special meal now and then during your trip to Paris, it's possible to check out restaurant dinners by price range so you can plan accordingly. Maxim's The really dedicated gastronome, and those who truly enjoy fine dining, will want to drop into one of the premier restaurants, and none offer a higher profile and more luxurious experiences than the famous Maxim's. Opened in 1893 by a waiter, Maxime Gaillard, it has become a Paris landmark for the last hundred years, with its Belle Epoque décor, impeccable service, and outstanding gourmet menus.
