A few nice places I can recommend you ( all nearby the apartment):
'Aux Délice de Beaubourg' at 20 rue de Renard, this is a great bakery where I often go for my 'baguette', possibly the best bread ever!!!, their cakes are also delicious and they also have a great selection of wonderful 'take away' meals. last but not least....their prices are very reasonable!
*****
the 'Bistrot Beaubourg' at 25 rue Quincampoix is a typical old bistrot of the 'Marais', serving homemade food and
delicious desserts. A great place for lunch or dinner, and at very reasonable prices!
*****
the 'Creperie Beaubourg', at the doorstep!. Enjoy a delicious crepe with every ingredient! They also have a wonderful range of French made beers and a very good cider from Normandy.
******
The 'Wine Touch' at 61 rue Quincampoix is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine or even buy a bottle! they have a huge selection of wines to suit every taste and every pocket. If you need any advice, have a word with the owner, he is a connoisseur!
******
- the Guiness Tavern at 31 rue des Lombards is round the corner. It is a great place to go if you like a pub atmosphere with regular live Rock Music!
