Aux Folies

Aux Folies is a traditional Paris bar & cafe that has fully embraced the city's multi-cultural present. Once the home of Edith Piaf and Maurice Chevalier, the district of Belleville now mixes Chinese and North African influences, reflecting the effect immigrant cultures have had on the city and its culture. Aux Folies is a popular spot for both coffee and cocktails, and its spacious terrace allows for some people-watching.

Cafes

Fresh baguettes and croissants with a strong espresso in the morning, aromatic teas or pastis in the afternoon, a local vintage with friends in the evening, it's never the wrong time to visit a cafe in Paris. They are a quintessential part of the Parisian experience and the perfect vantage point from which to engage in a lazy afternoon of people-watching. The wide variety of drinks and the occasional live music round off the cafe experience to perfection.
