This is a very famous restaurant in Paris, with a stunning art deco interior (and linen tablecloths) and good food, in a hearty French way. However it’s always very busy, you have to queue to get in and it’s very noisy inside. And you are expected to speak French as many waiters do not speak English. And it’s packed with tourists and you will be seated on a shared table and rushed when the place is full. To make things easier it does not take bookings or credit cards either. All this withstanding, the food is quite good and not expensive and service is quick, and it opens early and on Sundays which it can be very handy.

This is my favourite club in Paris. It is an old fashioned disco, with seats, a tiny wooden dance floor and an eighties retro look. Fridays and Saturdays starts as a bal-musette with couples dancing, but nearer to closing time you can dance to anything from French pop oldies to Kylie and Dalida.

It's all very French, but not in the English meaning of the word, friendly, definitively hetero friendly and although a bit studenty sometimes it's a great place to go out and dance to your heart's content without the hassle of trendier places. They also run a busy programme of activities during the week, and a bar next door (Rue des Virtus)
