Paris really has it all — history, culture, romance… and incredible food!

If you’re visiting France’s capital city, you’re in for a treat. French cuisine has been globally renowned since the 18th century, not only for its flavors but also for its presentation and the overall dining experience.

In addition to French fare, you can also find several other types of food when you visit Paris because of the diversity of its population.

This list includes some of the best restaurants in Paris, with a sprinkling of cafés, bars, and bakeries that you should visit during your holiday.
