Chez Chartier

M° Grands Boulevards
01 47 70 86 29
One of the oldest bistrots in Paris, Chartier looks like a
1920’s train station converted into a restaurant. Everything
is served à la carte and quickly. Plan to go early
or wait in line. This gem has not escaped the Parisians and
has recently been discovered by tourists, as well.

go.
