A large red boat moored on the Seine by the new national library, the Batofar houses a restaurant on deck and bars, dancefloors and chill-out room down below. Live sets from invariably interesting up-and-coming bands kicks off most evenings, with some big-name DJs taking over later. Deeply branché, despite the fact that access involves a potentially perilous hike along the quayside.
