Five rooftop bars to visit in Paris 


Wow, that skyline! If you're anything like me, a rooftop bar is always on my list for new places I visit. After a day of sight-seeing, is there anything better than enjoying a drink and a bite to eat with a view ? I think not! From the Eiffel Tower to the Arc de Triomphe, this capital city has one of the most iconic and stunning skylines in the world.

Where: 7th floor of the main store (21 Boulevard Haussmann, Paris, France)

This rooftop bar is in the shopping district of Paris and is perfect for a little break at lunch during your busy day. 

The bar serves beers, cocktails and soft drinks along with some small bites. 

In the summer period, a restaurant also opens up on the rooftop but does fill up quick! It is a very touristy area! 

In the winter, there are pop-up igloos to keep the customers warm (as shown in the pic).
