Place des Vosges
Start at Paris's oldest planned square. Stroll under the elegant arcades, admire the red-brick façades, and sit on a bench in the manicured gardens.
Musée Carnavalet
5 min walk from Place des Vosges. Free museum covering the history of Paris from prehistory to the present, housed in two stunning Renaissance mansions.
Le Mary Celeste
8 min walk. Beloved cocktail bar with inventive drinks and excellent oysters. The open kitchen and buzzy atmosphere make it a perfect date spot.
Breizh Café
3 min walk. The best crêpes and galettes in Paris, made with organic buckwheat flour and premium ingredients. Try the Complète with Bordier butter.
Comments
Le Mary Celeste oysters were unreal — get there before 6:30 or you'll wait 45 min for a spot
Can confirm, we showed up at 7 on a Friday and waited forever.
Solid date, the walk from Place des Vosges to the museum feels really natural. Breizh Café galettes were worth the hype 👌
