Parisii Bistrot Barcelona

Parisii Bistrot

As if the day was being written by Bancquart, “all things are in their place”. A perfectly Parisian place: Parisii Bistrot.

A cozy, well-lit corner, a hot cup of coffee, a raspy voice in the background humming a flawless melody… You can sit beside the fashionable couple engaged in an animated conversation by the big window, sit out on the sunny terrace with your friends or someone you just met, or on your own... Oh really, you can do n'importe-quoi! Always, of course, like in Paris, the favorite pass-time is watching the colorful passers go by.

You're in a little street of Saint-Germain, ordering a delicious entrecôte, a sensible salad or a cold drink, receiving it with diligent service by a good-looking garçon with an intelligent, friendly smile. You're in a sanctuary, as François Simon says in his book, "a place to reflect, observe passersby, consume calories and slop up the sauce from your plate with a piece of really good bread”.

It is Parisii, the most authentic French Bistrot in the heart of Barcelona.

It is the only place to go if you want excellent-quality food, efficient service and a little piece of Paradise. If you want to meet fascinating people, write your first novel or just watch life go by. Women in high heels, walking fluffy white dogs, men with elegant hats drinking exotic Panamanian coffee, friends laughing, artists drawing… You can’t help but ask yourself, “Is this really Eixample?”

It’s that certain je-ne-sais-quoi you find in old French films, it’s something that makes you stay long, then go home but always return. When Colette wrote, "the true traveler is he who goes on foot and even then, he sits down a lot of the time"… she had Parisii in mind. A place meant for neighbors and travelers alike. You come to wake up with bright service and rich coffee, then you come later to order the best mojito in town or the splendid house Rioja and feel like it’s a jazzy spot of the Quartier Latin on a summer night...

If you haven’t been yet, there’s no doubt you’re missing something special. Yes, it’s the City of Lights… but you don’t have to travel that far. It’s the center of Barcelona, a whole other world but very nearby: It is Parisii Bistrot.
