Chez Camille - Orsay

Great spot to hang with the locals and have a drink, eat a meat and cheese plate and chill.

Definitely a locals bar....That being said the mojitos here are superb. I just had a little trouble ordering due to my lack of french and their lack of english. If your visiting Paris this is a great place to start your night!

My favorite bar for the area around rue des Abbesses. This is a great and very popular (but tiny bar just up the hill. They specialize in mojitos, make lots of them, and typically have a descent size crowd outside smoking and drinking mojitos/beers on their tiny terrasse or on the adjacent sidewalk. They serve a nice planche of cheese and charcuterie nothing to rave about but nice to have at your disposal after a few mojitos. While the bar is usually crowded, you can still find a corner to chat with a friend or date without too much hassle. I go here for their house specialty cocktail: Le Captain. This is a rum based drink with blue curaçao and an upside down bottle of Orangina and a straw that goes into the bottle. As you drink, the bottle turns green and while at first it just tastes like Orangina the whole thing eventually becomes a delicious if perhaps dangerous mind hand grenade (it kinda looks like one too as the rum gets pulled in towards the end. They also can make mojitos with Sailor Jerry now (a Captain Morgan spiced rum ripoff and the results are rather delicious (but normally guarantee a headache I recommend avoiding Jerry and his treacherous ways... There is another cocktail based on Kahlua that is surprisingly yummy but I forget the name. Anyways great place. Highly recommended for small groups of friends from 11pm to closing time at about 1:30am. Happy hour can be nice as well :D

I've been here with a friend of mine for lunch (we're in the nearbies for work) and I found the place online. It's a very nice cafè restaurant that offers typical french cuisine. I think they need the reservation by night, but for lunch it's quite easy to find place inside the restaurant or in the small terrace on the street. The portions are abundant and the food is very tasty! I will come back for sure!

We visited the place we some friends. It was summer so we sat in the tables outside the bar. Nice place to have a beer with your friends, the food was ok, but nothing special.
