Opening times for restaurants in Paris
Opening times for restaurants in Paris
As a general rule, Parisians go for lunch between midday and 1.30pm and dine between 8pm and 10.30pm.
Generally open between 12:00 - 14:00 and 19:30 - 23:00
At other times, you’ll always be able to find a snack in most cafés and “brasseries”. If the restaurant has a sign saying “service continu”, this indicates that you can have a meal at any time of day.
The majority of bars and cafés open early, around 7 or 8 am and close around 10pm, or later if the establishment has a special dispensation.
