At Jeannette's, the night starts here
Chez Jeannette cultivates the art of the Parisian aperitif, with its retro decor and bar counter.
A few minutes from the Hôtel Château d’Eau, Chez Jeannette is one of those Parisian spots where you stop in for a drink and end up staying all night. With its authentic, untouched decor, lively bar, and eclectic crowd, this bistro on the Faubourg Saint-Denis has become a true neighborhood institution.
A bistro that has kept its old-world charm
Behind its red storefront, Chez Jeannette seems to have weathered the decades without ever really changing. With its ceiling moldings, weathered mirrors, red banquettes, vintage light fixtures, and neon sign above the bar, the charm of the 1950s remains perfectly intact.
Taken over in 2007, the establishment has preserved the essence of its decor, cultivating that blend of popular bistro and trendy hangout that makes it so unique today.
You’ll find regulars at the bar, neighbors stopping by for a coffee, and a more festive crowd that takes over as night falls. It’s a joyful mix of styles, perfectly reflecting the 10th arrondissement.

Aperitif hour, done right
At Chez Jeannette, evenings often begin with a drink on the terrace, amidst the bustle of the Faubourg Saint-Denis. As the hours pass, conversations liven up, tables fill, and the bar becomes one of the neighborhood's main gathering spots.
Order a beer, a glass of wine, or a cocktail, accompanied by a few plates to share. For those who prefer to sit down for a meal, the house also offers bistro-style cuisine with classic French dishes at affordable prices.
No fuss, no ceremony: just pull up a chair, order, and soak in the atmosphere.
The Paris of spontaneous nights
That is perhaps the true charm of Chez Jeannette: you never really know how long you’ll end up staying.
One drink often leads to another, friends join the table, and the night stretches on to the rhythm of the neighborhood. There’s nothing overly sophisticated here—just that slightly noisy, spontaneous, and vibrantly alive Parisian atmosphere.
From the Hôtel Château d’Eau, it’s just a few minutes' walk to this essential Faubourg address. It’s a wonderful way to discover the Paris of the locals, far from the overly polished bars.
