Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Montparnasse right now.
Immortalized in the 1920s by the likes of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Pablo Picasso, the cafés and bars in this quiet corner of the city still radiate atmosphere. Whether sipping a sidecar at Hemingway's beloved La Closerie des Lilas or slurping oysters at one of the quarter's storied brasseries, you can't help but fall under Paris's spell here.
Step through the Art Nouveau front door of Jean-Paul Sartre's onetime haunt and you'll be instantly immersed in the dark, moody, fourth dimension of Old Montparnasse, where white-jacketed servers and red-lacquered tables transport you into the past.
