Bercy Village

Facing the François Mitterrand Library and close to the Cinémathèque, Bercy Village is a trendy, upscale neighborhood where you can grab a bite on a terrace before browsing the shops or catching a movie. Until 1960, the Bercy district was a wine market: the old wine warehouses of the Cour Saint-Émilion were restored and renovated in the late 1990s.

Highlights

The UGC Ciné Cité Bercy cinema

Bercy Village's cinema is the second-largest in the Île-de-France region. With a wide selection of French and international films, it offers a pleasant setting.

The Frog

The Frog is a pub and tapas bar with a happy hour offering drinks for 5 euros, from 5pm to 8pm. The beers are craft-brewed on-site and the décor is warm and inviting.

Chai 33

The restaurant Chai 33 serves a gourmet brunch every Sunday. Upstairs, a cozy lounge awaits you for a drink with some background music. Don't forget to check out the wine cellars in the basement: there's something for every taste and every budget.

The artisan shops

At Bercy Village, you'll find boutiques you won't come across anywhere else, such as Oliviers & Co, known for its olive oils and other Mediterranean specialties; Dammann Frères, a must for tea lovers; and La Cure Gourmande for its handmade cookies and old-fashioned candies.
