Expert review of Bistrot Paul Bert
The place to come for a hearty Parisian bistro experience.
For many people the Paul Bert pretty much sums up what a bistro is all about: a classic interior of tiled floor, wooden chairs, a relaxed atmosphere and satisfying traditional food.
Food and drink:
The emphasis here is on simply prepared favourites and fine-quality ingredients, rather than innovation, perhaps a côte de boeuf for two served in jitteringly rare slices with chunky peasant chips, or succulent roast pigeon. For dessert the Paris-Brest is renowned.
Ambience:
It can feel a bit like an insider address where everyone seems to know each other, but don't let this put you off . This is the sort of place where you find yourself chatting to your neighbours, if only to comment on the mms and ahs of satisfaction.
Service:
Casual but rather brusque when stretched.
Location:
On a foodie street east of the Bastille.
Price advice:
The three-course menu-carte costs 34 euros, with a 16.50 euro formule for weekday lunch.
Other useful branches:
The same team also own the Ecailler du Bistrot next door, which specialises in fish.
