There are lots of bars in a small area, which makes it easy to move on or have a happy evening bar crawling. Rue de Lappe is a particularly busy street with bars pretty much all the way along. The fact that Bastille is on so many Métro lines makes it easy to meet friends from across the city and get home too! Always good..!?

It's a chain of proper English boozers, think theres four or five of them, but the best by a mile is the frog and princess on Rue Princess, near place st germain. Small and fun. Check out the bilingual quiz night on Sundays. Great stuff.

My own favourite bar - Cafe des Anges, about half way up Rue de la Roquette in the Eleventh Arrondissement - a small brasserie with great food and a very cool young crowd.

I worked and studied in Paris in 2002/2003, living in the Eleventh Arrondissement near Bastille. In the years that followed I worked in the tourist industry, guiding tour groups around the city and it’s suburbs. Now resident across the channel in London, and working in online publishing, parisbynumbers.com is my chance to make use of the huge amount I learned about Paris - and certainly helps keep my web skills up to scratch.
