La Bellevilloise
Lodged in an 1877 workers' cooperative, La Bellevilloise stacks a concert hall, a basement club, an olive-tree-lined restaurant and a rooftop across four floors, and programs all of them hard — Sunday jazz brunches, weeknight café-concerts, DJ nights.
The restaurant only opens Thu–Sat evenings and Sunday lunch, so build a visit around the jazz brunch or a dated concert.

Within a few minutes' walk
- Hôtel BridgetBoutique hotel€€ · 5 minBehind a traditional façade on rue des Pyrénées, 32 rooms furnished from the flea markets — candy-coloured benches, salvaged pieces — in upper Ménilmontant near Père-Lachaise. Two métro lines within a few minutes.
- Nadaud HotelBudget hotel€ · 7 minA 27-room family hotel on a quiet street fifty metres from the Gambetta gate of Père-Lachaise, run with an environmental bent and the rare offer of breakfast brought to the room over a generous morning window. Plain, clean, inexpensive.
- Le JourdainNeo-bistro€€ · 9 minA tight, crowded neo-bistro between the Buttes-Chaumont and Jourdain, doing a market-driven plat at lunch and turning to small seafood plates and natural wine at night. The wine list is the rare one priced so the second bottle still feels reasonable.

Best for: Travellers who want the real, diverse, cheap-eats Paris and a view from Parc de Belleville.
