I do love La Boulangerie myself for its exciting food and wonderful atmosphere at remarkable prices. For as long as the bliss lasts - I fear it may get well-known.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19578 L'Encrier http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19012 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19012 Restaurant Le Reminet http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16223 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16223 Chez Ribe http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16209
Great food, nice wine, great atmosphere, frequented by locals and all at a reasonable price. Great place for an evening meal in a great location.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16209 Le Nemrod http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15740
Good value for lunch or just a coffee or a pichet of wine - good for Beaujolais. A great place for classic Auvergnate cuisine.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15740 Les Frangines - Bistro http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15262
Recently renovated, this is a place that is packed with locals, and it is clear why - the food is excellent and the atmosphere lively and friendly. Marie, one of the sisters in the Bistro's name speaks excellent English and would be more than happy to share her passion for the capital city with you.

Good food, good wine, very reasonable prices, good location if you are south of the river.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15262 Le Comptoir Du 7eme http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2318
I go there every time I'm in Paris, and the service and food are always fabulous. The decor is mostly burgundy and the atmosphere is cozy but young and contemporary.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2318 Polidor http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2201
And at lunchtime it's full of local office workers, which is a good sign that the food is value for money. Be prepared to rub shoulders with your neighbours though, as it's a tight squeeze. I haven't been in the evening, but I hear it can get busy.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2201
