DK Travel : Paris : Bars & Nightclubs

Buddha Bar

A swanky bar/ restaurant come nightclub. The original Mahiki and one which has a worldwide following of its music.
La Galerie

This nightclub has the best of everything, even reggaeton. Just make sure you don't pass out from alcohol poisoning...
Le Bar Dix

Wonderfully atmospheric bar in the Latin Quarter, filled with intellectual-looking students and probably the most lethal sangria ever. Be weary of the stairs after a glass too many...
Le Baron

Once upon a time, talk of Le Baron nights would have triggered fond memories of eating fishfinger sandwiches and watching Top of the Pops in the mid-1970's. But, no longer. Le Baron is tiniest, coolest, moodiest club on the Seine. Its hard to get in, believe me. Really. We had to e-mail many times in advance and bring a noted celebrity in order to just get our noses through the door. But, if you can get in, and you can afford the 200 Euro charge for a bottle of champagne, then you are in for a rare treat. Offering an eclectic mix of live music performance and DJ sets, this club is the closest thing to hip I've ever come across in 17 years of visiting the Old Gay. Proper. No messing. Dripping with the distressed glamour and effortless cool of the French underground. It's the Paris of Sebastien Tellier, Air, Phoenix, Marie Antoinetter, Baise Moi (Ok, not Baise Moi) and Daft Punk. There is no sign of pompous men with moustaches, wearing scarves and dreaming of Francois Mitterand. And if there were people like that there, they were doing it ironically. An important milestone in Parisian culture, this is a return to its bohemian roots. Go there, spend the value of a small house in Middlesborough and enjoy yourself.
Le Cab

Le cab is a great restaurant/club, the food is superb quality and the club is something else. Not cheap to drink but worth going in for at least one cocktail!

At the famous Parisian club, you can now enjoy the pleasure of dining in a restaurant whose reputation is already established.

The chef offers you to discover a trendy and refined cuisine in an intimate and relaxed atmosphere.

After dinner, the dance floor and its eclectic musical fare are waiting for you.
Le Cab

Le Cab is a restaurant come club and has a great feel of the rich and famous. Its decor is sumptuous and lavish, rich in wall hangings, chandeliers and leather seating. The food is excellent and so is the service. The club creates a great atmosphere throughout the venue, on trend music and a great crowd. Make sure you dress up to experience this night and even though the drinks are expensive (E15 each) its worth it just for one!
Slow Club

The Slow Club is a fantastic cellar bar where they play live music and you can dance french jive with the locals. No membership required, but a great night out
Willi's Wine Bar

A delightful wine bar serving many top wines by the glass. Also serves up fine meals to compliment the wines.
