Default Opening hours pubs in Paris

Hi,

We are a couple going to Paris in mid-July. We are arriving rather
late on a Monday evening, and we were wondering how long the pubs in
Paris are open. We will be staying at a hotel close to the Pantheon.

We are hoping to relax at a pub or a bar after many hours of travel, but
we don't want to go to any fancy nightclubs.

Merci

-HH

Many stay open until the wee hours, so it shouldn't be a problem.

You could go to rue Moufetard, there are many cafés and pubs that will
be open until 2 AM not to mention the restaurants.

When I was in Paris a couple of weeks ago, I often ate dinner at 10-11, in
the area around Rue St. André des Arts in the 6th. Bars were still open
when I left for bed, around 12, 12:30.

There are no restrictions on opening hours for pubs in Paris. Some are
open all night, or 24 hours a day.

What's the difference?


There is a daylight period during each period of 24 hours at the
latitude of Paris, so 24 hours is longer than "all night."

The difference is that most are not open 24 hours/day. If you are on
jet lag from North American and go out at 5 AM to eat breakfast you will
find it hard to find a café open. Our nearest starts getting the tables
outside around 7, one of the local concierge earns extra money by washing
down the floors and if you want coffee and a tartine (a buttered
bagette split slideways) or croissant you'll have to stand at the
comptoir.

You can find all-nighters on the grandes boulevards

Following are the lyrics to one of Yves Montand great
songs - Des Grandes Boulevards

However, he does not push the glories of Paris at 4 AM.
(there is also a all night cyber "café" down the street from
the Pantheon on the rue Soufflot, however it is really not
a café).

J'aime flâner sur les grands boulevards
Y a tant de choses, tant de choses
Tant de choses à voir
On n'a qu'à choisir au hasard
On s'fait des ampoules
A zigzaguer parmi la foule
J'aime les baraques et les bazars
Les étalages, les loteries
Et les camelots bavards
Qui vous débitent leurs bobards
Ça fait passer l'temps
Et l'on oublie son cafard

Je ne suis pas riche à million
Je suis tourneur chez Citroën
J'peux pas me payer des distractions
Tous les jours de la semaine
Aussi moi, j'ai mes petites manies
Qui me font plaisir et ne coûtent rien
Ainsi, dès le travail fini
Je file entre la porte Saint-Denis
Et le boulevard des Italiens

J'aime flâner sur les grands boulevards
Y a tant de choses, tant de choses
Tant de choses à voir
On y voit des grands jours d'espoir
Des jours de colère
Qui font sortir le populaire
Là vibre le c¦ur de Paris
Toujours ardent, parfois frondeur
Avec ses chants, ses cris
Et de jolis moments d'histoire
Sont écrits partout le long
De nos grands boulevards

J'aime flâner sur les grands boulevards
Les soirs d'été quand tout le monde
Aime bien se coucher tard
On a des chances d'apercevoir
Deux yeux angéliques
Que l'ont suit jusqu'à République
Puis je retrouve mon petit hôtel
Ma chambre où la fenêtre donne
Sur un coin de ciel
D'où me parviennent comme un appel
Toutes les rumeurs, toutes les lueurs
Du monde enchanteur
Des grands boulevards

But this is neither a 24 hour place nor an all-nighter.

Yeah, but this is r.t.e home of the absurd.


Look what happens when you take a few days off. You lose all sense of
r.t.e.ality.
