In advance of your trip to the Arc we put together a list of some of our favourite restaurants in Paris!
With a free evening on Saturday to make the most of what the city has to offer, our selection includes both options nearby or for the more adventurous, a little further afield be that on the Seine or in central Paris.
We would advise making a booking in advance of your trip to avoid any disappointment.
Jazz Club Etoile
Located at Le Méridien Etoile, where we will be holding our Preview Drinks Evening, you'll be able to make the easy transition to the Jazz Club to continue your evening with superb sound and fantastic food.
A hotspot of jazz, blues and R&B which has enjoyed over 30 years of popularity, the venue regularly plays host to both French and international jazz stars.
Saturday night will see English and Polish duo 'Greg Zlap x Ian Siegal' getting the crowd going with their harmonica and blues guitar like nobody one else.
With a selection of more than 80 single malt whiskies and an extensive cocktail menu, Jazz Club Etoile stands out amongst the city’s plentiful jazz venues, and is an excellent alternative to the sequins and sparkle of the cabaret while still making the most of your time in Paris!
Places are limited and need to be booked from 8pm. We recommend booking early to avoid missing out as it will be a busy evening!

If you're looking for something a bit more special, Quai Ouest is a huge barge resting on the water facing the Bois de Boulogne between the bridges of Suresnes and Saint-Cloud.

Chez Francoise
One of Frankie's favourites! “Amazing local cuisine, a must try for proper French food.
Everything you want in a proper French restaurant, local cuisine, waiters that barely speak English and all set in a truly French style.
The food is beautifully done with traditional French dishes and fantastic wines to accompany. The sea-bass is so delicious and comes highly recommended! Just a heads up this can, like many french restaurants, be hard to find so follow the directions on their website carefully!"
