18th Arrondissement (Pigalle)
Café Burq
Popular with Monmartre locals, this cozy, low-lit cafe and bar in the Place du Tertre is known for its good-looking staff and sexy feel. With an extensive wine list and swanky decor, including sherbet-colored wall sconces designed by Christophe Pillet, Cafe Burq attracts an upscale bar crowd, particularly after 9 p.m. (The cafe is mostly empty early evenings and an easy stop-in for authentic French dishes like Escargot in cream and veal liver sautéed with figs.) Attracting cheese lovers from all over Paris, Cafe Burq's roasted Camembert pairs nicely with a half bottle of wine late evenings.
Insider Tip:
The cafe has a big blackboard menu in French, but English menus are available upon request.
