The Bottle Shop, Paris

The Bottle Shop is a popular destination for local Parisians and English-speakers alike. The bartenders pass seamlessly between the two languages, jovially pouring drinks from behind the circular bar. A few people order cocktails, but not many; this is mostly a beer crowd. The bar updated its look in 2009 but maintained its laid-back atmosphere. The tin ceiling and chalkboard menus are here to stay. If the kitchen is closed and customers are still hungry, guests are welcome to bring outside food in. On weekend nights when a DJ is often playing, it can get a bit loud and cramped inside. Arrive early for a table. On calmer weekday nights, the bar s stereo plays rock music, and it's easier to have a conversation.
