Le Bar du Marché - Cafes Near Me - Paris, 75

This is right across the street from Paul. My companion decided for us to come here instead given my rule of wanting to try new places. Let me tell you - I wish he hadn't listened to me. Paul was great, this place? Not so much. Ordered a coffee and some cheesy eggs. My companion had a Coke and a sandwich. One of us also had a croissant. I believe it was me, but I don't particularly remember. My point in all this is that the food was unmemorable at best. That and we wound up at Paul after. Not to say that the food here was terrible. It was just bland and there are so many other places that should probably be explored or even repeated before coming here. read more

Stop by for a quick bite while on the food tour. We started with the escargot. Our guide then suggested duck breast but we had just had that the night before so we decided to go with the sweetbread. It's the meat from the throat of a calf. In the spirit of being in a foreign country I'm willing to try it all. It was surprisingly good, very tender + juicy and it came with a side of mashed potatoes and asparagus. read more

A regrettable culinary experience. The wine was not good either. Anywhere worse might be better.

Super rude wait staff. Tell me how a 33 CL Carlsberg is 3.60, but a 50CL Carlsberg is 10.70. They told me to wait inside until the table came available outside, and two different people came from the street, and they sat them first. Just so happens that those people were FRENCH. Don't go here if you're an American tourist. read more

Great corner location for people watching and pretty quick and friendly service. There aren't many options for a full meal but I generally like a light French breakfast anyway and the bread was good and the orange juice was fresh and flavorful. They let me have a double espresso and still charged the standard breakfast price. I sat on the corner, smoked like a chimney, ate my croissant and felt French. Great experience. read more

This place was minutes from our hotel, they had an English menu and an English. Did they hav the most amazing French food? Well No but it was pretty good and they were open late and service was quick! I had a crepe for dinner and my husband had the beef bourguignon. Sitting outside was perfect and so French, I loved it! read more

We went here for breakfast. The general area is great for window shopping and people watching. We sat inside to escape the smokers. We both got an omelet, mine was with cheese. There was a mix up and the wife thought she ordered a veggie omelet but ended up with a plain one. We don't know where it went wrong since the waitress knew English. The waitress was friendly and accommodating. The food was just so-so. Both omelets were undercooked for our taste, to the point of being runny. The eggs were fresh but nothing terribly special. Kind of pricey--25 euro for two omelets and tea/coffee. We probably would not eat here again. read more

More of a light snack place than a full fledged restaurant, Le Bar du Marche has surprisingly attentive French service, low prices, and an excellent location to people watch. Whomever owns this restaurant must be a huge fan of "Come on Eileen," as everyone on staff is wearing overalls and looks vaguely like the members of the Dexys Midnight Runners. Questionable fashion choices aside, I really enjoyed the vibe of Le Bar du Marche. The French get a lot of hate for their terrible service, so it was surprising how good it was here. I mean sure, the waiter took his time getting to us, but the French believe in leaving the customer alone and only come back if absolutely necessary. My girlfriend and I decided to keep it light, ordering the ham & cheese baguette and croque monsieur. The bread all over this country is amazing, and it maintained its high quality here. I should've taken a picture of the menu to get the names right, but you'll just have to go off my pictures below. Our meal at Le Bar du Marche was light, cheap, and perfect for what we wanted. Don't expect a big meal here - just come for a light snack and people watch. read more

This review is strictly for Le Bar du Marche late night because this is where we stumbled to two nights in a row. We didn't eat anything. Just drank. Drank lots. Bottles and bottles of wine. At night, the atmosphere here can't be beat. Crowded, rowdy, smoky, and loud. A good mix of locals and tourists. We had fantastic service the first night especially. I think our waiter was amused that 3 Americans were downing wine the way we were. Great people watching and good drink selection. Highly recommend if you're looking for a place for a night cap. read more

This is one of the greatest spots in Saint-Germain. It is perfectly located between the Rue de Seine and the Rue de Bucci. If you want to rest for a while after a long day of shopping and walking, this is the place where you will feel like a Germanopratin (that's how inhabitants of Saint-Germain are called). Lots of young people with sunglasses (even without sun), women wearing fur (even if it's not cold), but beyond all that two things are important to notice. One: the waiters are surprisingly nice and fast. Two: the prices are quite low for such an edgy and pretentious spot. It's worth dropping by before going to have a cocktail somewhere else (to the Mezzanine or the Prescription for example). read more

Nice place, pretty okay staff and I liked their Americano. Black coffee.

We just happened upon this place walking from the train station back to our hotel. It's not on too busy of a street, so it's not too noisy. The waiters are friendly. Didn't experience the waiters yelling orders like another reviewer. Just had drinks. Down-rated a star because they would not serve us a large water since we were not ordering food. Otherwise, we loved the place! read more

This is THE people-watching spot in Saint-Germain, in my opinion. Le Bar du Marché is packed ALL THE TIME - something that amazed me as I walked by it everyday. It was not far from our hotel, so it became a routine to have a nightcap here, particularly because the buzz inside and outside was always so alluring. It looks happening...so it must be happening? One plus, it's not all tourists. One negative, the locals who do go here think very highly of themselves. I guess this is actually a very chichi area, but be prepared to bump shoulders with individuals who have clearly spent hours on their appearances, only to stick cigarettes into their mouths and feign disinterest in everything around them. Regardless, they have a great drink list, the location is outstanding and the service is fast. You can be both a participant and a voyeur here - and if you have the energy and patience, it's really quite fun. read more

We dropped in for lunch at Le Bar du Marche. The Hot Dog Avec Fromage, Chips and a glass of wine made for a nice lunch in Saint-Germain. read more

Completely overpriced. Silly uniforms on the waiters. Loud. Too busy, ALL THE TIME. Why go to Bar du Marché? Because it has some of the best people watching in Paris. Because even though the servers are constantly screaming orders at the bartender and you're going to pay around 9€ for a pint on the terrasse, you will become enchanted with this neighborhood favorite. My advice, come early in the morning for a coffee and read one of Le Parisiens floating around the bar. Watch locals coming and going from their errands, tourists wandering the streets, well-heeled shoppers pursuing the boutiques, it's endless entertainment, and your café allongé will only run you about 2€. For an apéro, try to come early to snag a seat, otherwise it's standing room only, and you'll have to fight for a corner of the bar to lean your elbow on. Menu is pretty limited. Think: tartines, hot dog (?), fries. You're better off wandering around to find something a bit more delectable. Boisson: 7/10 Bouffe: 3/10 Ambiance: 8/10 read more

Lovely afternoon spent here just people watching, pretty good service relative to the European mode vs USA...Waiter was friendly and funny--spoke English very well. Would go back for the burger for sure...it had some amazing cheese and prosciutto on it! read more

At night it is a Nice place to have a drink in a lively neighborhood and not more. They had little snacks but if you are looking for something to eat with your drink, this is not a place. We ordered Croquet Monsieur, which was really small and price was 8€! read more

Was treated poorly and mocked when trying to communicate in French. Seems that foreigners are unwelcome, even if they are trying to be as polite as possible. read more

Terrible service on the outdoor terrace. The waiter was nasty and very slow. When I ordered a coffee and nothing else he commented sarcastically"oh well it's just fine that you are taking up a table just for a coffee" Message received, he doesn't want customers, I won't be back. read more

Great place for people watching. Tiny tables crowded together so you'll have to be comfortable squeezing past others in order to grab a seat. Music is close by providing a wonderful ambiance. read more

Both of their chefs are creep. They stare at you like they have never seen a human being. Food was ok. Toilet was broken and light wasn't working. read more

My fav. spot ! Great staff and great food, Lunch time would be the best. Just a few min. from St.Germain.

One word...rude. 4 Euros for coffee....another 4 for Croissant...another 4 for jus or whatever....I suggest going 3 doors down to Smiths Bakery. Delicious coffee and Croissant for Euros 3.40. And they are a delight. read more

The perfect typical Parisian bistrot, great at any time in the day, from breakfast (cafe creme + baguette + croissant) to late in the evening (crowed terrasse and bar area, serving wine, coffees and cocktails), including lunch and aperitif during the day. Try to seat at the terrasse and watch life in St Germain happen in front of you. Highly recommended read more

Wow - this was incredible good food. Steak was great as well as the pasta carbonara. Fairly priced and service was good. Will most likely return. read more

One of the best bars in Paris and for sure St-Germain for the locals and a typical Parisian place to meet ... dont come for the food but come for the fun and entertainment... located on the corner of the best street in St-Germain this bar fills up early mostly by locals and some tourists.. It can go late but at its prime early evening, the outside chairs and tables are prime real estate.. Also a cool morning coffee quite coffee bar.. read more

This place is worth checking out simply for the typically Parisian decor and waiters. I love coming here on dates or with a group. It's located very close to Odeon, the rue St Andre des Arts, and Notre Dame. It's also great for people watching in the summer from the sidewalk seating!!! read more

Love stopping in here after grocery shopping at nearby Champion. This is a busy intersection and oftentimes street musicians are performing right in front of the cafe, The service is great and fast. A great place to watch the buzz of the busy Rue de Buci and Saint Andre des Arts. They often have jazz on their sound system. read more

One of our favourite cafes in Paris. Outstanding staff and a delicious croque monsieur. Set perfectly for a lazy cafe ah lait while watching the students and all the beautiful people of Paris go about their day read more

Prime spot to watch the world go by. Friendly, decent prices. Not a restaurant but club sandwich is very nice.

Chilled out singles type bar in Paris. Good to go to if you want to mingle. Style is typically Parisian

Great spot to unwind after being in/loving Paris. Very friendly staff, fantastic soupe a l'oignon and frites, lovely Happy Hour (5-8PM), perfect location in Le Marais. Highly recommend. read more

Was flirted right into the back seats of this crowded bar by the cute waiter, Vincent, who was funny, fast and very good at his job. Loved the lively atmosphere and cosy red lit interior, we had cocktails until they kicked us out at 2am. Only downside is the dirty toilet that only accommodates one person at a time. Would definitely recommend and visit again! read more

3.5 stars. i found this place on the recommendation of time out the first time i was in paris about eight years ago. it's a cute, cheerful cafe with friend waiters decked out in overalls and delicious omelettes. flash forward nearly eight years, and to my delight it is still here and just the same as i recall. it is a very good option for a hot drink and/or snack in this neighborhood, especially for the price. it does not have the historic ambiance and hustle of say cafe de flore or deux magots, but it is simple and pleasant. definitely recommend! read more
